For years, Seth Green used to beg friends to lend their voices to his cheeky little blast of attention-deficit television, Robot Chicken.

Now, as the stop-motion animation series reaches the 100-episode milestone (Sunday at 10:30 p.m. on Teletoon at Night), the stars are coming to him.

Including a certain judge from The Voice.

I ran into Cee Lo Green at the MTV awards four years ago, says Green says on the phone from L.A., and he grabbed me by the shoulders with his jewel-encrusted hands and said, When am I going to be on Robot Chicken? And I was like, Please tell me one of these people standing next to you is your agent or manager or scheduling coordinator.

One of them was. Cee Lo was booked for a recording session and, according to Seth Green, he killed: So fearlessly funny.

Besides Green and co-creator Matt Senreich, the voices of Alex Borstein, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Mila Kunis, Seth MacFarlane and Breckin Meyer can often be heard on the series. Celebrity guest voices have ranged from Mark Hamill to David Hasselhoff to Hugh Hefner to Hulk Hogan and those are just the Hs.

Using a mix of animated dolls and toys, the series takes bratty pot shots at all aspects of pop culture. The 100th episode ventures into live action and traditional two-dimensional animation, especially during a goof on the old Saturday morning Hanna-Barbera cartoons. (Yogi and Boo-Boo morph into live action Power Ranger-type heroes.)

Green says hes become somewhat of an expert on how far you can go parodying well-known properties. You dont get permission as much as you do your due diligence to make a specific kind of joke thats allowable without permission, he says.

Crossing genres and platforms is also something Green, 38, has become an expert on. Hes had an impact in film and TV roles, such as the Austin Powers movies and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but also on webisodes and video games, especially the wildly popular Mass Effect series as flight lieutenant Jeff Joker Moreau.
