Adult Swim, What Happened????

[Tagsrover]

Do you guys remember when adult swim totally rocked???? But now all they play is stupid shows like Moral Oral, Tim and Eric, Saul of the MoleMan, i mean, these are terrible

Aqua teen hunger force, Robot Chicken, and Metalocalypse, like the three best animated shows ever, EVER, maybe sailor moon too, HOTTIE

[jq715861]

I hate the "Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job" more than I possibly hate anything on this Earth.

[drno830]

And they lost the rights to Futurama. That ruins my entire midnight hour

[Eastwood]

Moral Oral is hilarious!

But the live action junk has got to go!

[drno830]

I remember when they used to show two ATHF episodes every night. It was so awesome. Now its on like once a week maybe

[Tagsrover]

totally agree with Futurama, except they never got the rights to the later seasons, it was just 1,2,3 i think, but still awesome none-the-less

[battle_axe_of_doom]

adult swim was never funny so it sucking now is no surprise

[TheRocker]

Do you guys remember when adult swim totally rocked???? But now all they play is stupid shows like Moral Oral, Tim and Eric*, Saul of the MoleMan, i mean, these are terrible

Aqua teen hunger force, Robot Chicken, and Metalocalypse, like the three best animated shows ever, EVER, maybe sailor moon too, HOTTIE

*SUCKS BEYOND REASON!

[devo193]

T&EASGJ is the stupidest, most ******ed pile of horse sh*t ever.

Metalocalypse and Robot Chicken are the greatest shows EVER!!!

[ThePaska]

I agree there are many shows on Adult Swim I really dislike, but there are a ton of great shows still on there. Also Moral Oral is amazing!

[defmonkey]

Moral Oral is very funny. Its alot of dry humor though. For some reason that show gets alot of crap. Its really good on bashing christanity and conservatives.

Those other shows... effing suck. Anything that Tim and Eric make sucks... Literally.

Squidbillies and 12 oz. mouse are funny here and there. I actually warmed upto Squidbillies a bit.

[logicalnoise]

shows still running and actually good on Adult swim:
Robot Chicken, Lucy the daughter of the devil, Family Guy(with stuiff that gets cut from the fox broadcast), Xavier Renegade Angel, Venture bros(easily one of the best animated shows ever, unfortunatly season 3 is delayed till june now), The boondocks, Harvey birdman, Frisky Dingo. I don't really care for metalocalypse but I see the draw for people.

Crap: Tim and eric(I hope bob odenkirk and David Cross get their new HBO show greenlit Bob needs david cross to balance him out. Adult swim has a lot of good stuff but yeah when it's bad it's pretty bad.

Do you guys remember when adult swim totally rocked????

Nope, I don't remember that ever happening, sorry...

[Vengeance]

They should bring back Space Ghost and The Brak Show because those shows got me into watching adultswim

[hmxsean]

Where did Frisky Dingo go? That one is awesome. They showed what appeared to be a couple episodes of the new season and then it just sort of disappeared.

[Eastwood]

I think that one might have been too edgy for ted turner to allow. Once you start drawing penises on guys, you go past the boundaries set by ATHF and Family Guy

[Daesania]

I wanna know what happened to Shin Chan. LOL

[CaptainCoins]

Um, Futurama, Family Guy, Robot Chicken, ATHF, and Metalocolypse comes on every night through the week. At least it does on my Adult Swim. Maybe you all are just getting the ****ty no comedy version. o.O

[logicalnoise]

it probably returns in January or close to that. It could have been affected by the writers strike but I'm unsure. What's still odd is that adult swim hasn't put out season 1 on DVD yet. Season 1 supposedly had the best ratings of any new show they ever launched.

EDIT: checked around and yeah they are still scheduled to return early next year.

Ted turner is pretty much gone from the equation.

[Eastwood]

Ted turner is pretty much gone from the equation.

I thought he was still pulling the strings on all the Turner networks... Well, I'm glad he's gone then.

from wikipedia:

Recent years

On January 29, 2003, AOL Time Warner announced that Ted Turner would resign as a vice chairman.

On February 24, 2006, Turner announced that he would not seek re-election as director on the Time Warner board of directors.

[Eastwood]

Good. He might have wanted to recolor Futurama reruns or something, anyway.

[Huff-daddy]

I miss 12 Oz Mouse something fierce. On a related note, some Dethklok DLC would be awesome.

to me 12oz mouse represents teh worst of adult swim. i'm not a fan of metalocalypse but the dethklok stuff is pretty cool.

[MartyMcFly]

Good shows:
Family Guy, Futurama, Robot Chicken, Metalocalypse, ATHF, Home Movies, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law, Sealab 2021 (the re-created ones), Oblongs aren't too bad, Mission Hill was good, Venture Bros., Stroker & Hoop was funny, but never caught on.




Crap shows:
Tom & Eric, Saul of the Mole Men or whatever, Squidbillies, 12 oz. mouse, Tom Goes to the Mayor, Perfect Hair Forever, and Shin Chan.
All yucky.

Agree 100^∞%

[Julio_No_Mas]

Agree 100^∞%

Same here.

Remember when Adult Swim was TOONAMI, MIDNIGHT RUN? The anime block with uncensored versions of Outlaw Star, Big O, Cowboy Bebop (best anime ever) and Gundam? That was great.

[howsh_]

Family Guy, Futurama, Robot Chicken, Metalocalypse, ATHF, Home Movies, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law, Sealab 2021, Oblongs, Venture Bros., and Stroker & Hoop are all pretty good

i hate Tom & Eric, Saul of the Mole Men, Squidbillies, Tom Goes to the Mayor, Perfect Hair Forever.

I'm kind of surprised that only one person has mentioned The Boondocks though. It is a pretty funny show.

They don't wanna send the wrong impression if they say they didn't like it lol If you know what I mean.

Those were the days.

And I like the Boondocks.

[Julio_No_Mas]

Boondocks is amazing. One of the best on CN.

[jq715861]

Why has no one mentioned Assy McGee? lol

[cutmaclass]

Venture Brothers and Home Movies were both great shows.

As far as I know Venture Bros. is coming back for another season. Brendon Small has moved on to Metalocalypse, which is good, but the new season is kinda lame.

[killroy420]

wow, not only has Adult swims new shows started to suck at an increasing rate, but all they do for the GOOD shows is the same reruns over and over and over and over and over and over.......
seriously, how many times do we need to see the first 20 episodes of Inuyasha?

[Tagsrover]

Same here.

Gundam after midnight, when it actually showed people getting cut in half, so much better than whatever they played at 9

And speaking of adult swim, anyone play the ATHF ninja pro am video game? or harvey birdman attourney at law game (don't know if it's out)

[Sarge51]

No Futurama. No dice.

It's definitely not as cool as when they had those "Pool" pre and after commercial segments. Epic.
