Are we all clear now?

 

[sportzhead]

12 oz. Mouse = waste of time

Aqua Teen and Home Movies are still the best Adult Swim programs.

Edit- I don't count Family Guy, Futurama, or America Day because they can be found on other networks.

Gigantor? Cool. It took them 10 months but AS finally has a good anime for 2005.

But more importantly the banned Venture Brothers episode is back into the shows rotation!

Yeah, it was good to see it. I still can't quite figure out exactly why it was banned in the first place.

 

[Phoenix]

Which episode was banned?

Also, it looks like Adult Swim has pushed up most of the shows that I watch early so I'll be getting back coding time late at night around midnight

Keep the Birdman coming and hurry the hell up with new ATHF!

 

[sans_pants]

do they not realize that their shows arent interchangeable and they shouldnt be moving them around so damn much

 

[Ponn]

Yeah, it was good to see it. I still can't quite figure out exactly why it was banned in the first place.

Wait, I thought I just saw an episode I never saw before and thought it was the new season.

Spoiler

Was it the one with the flashbacks to college? That one was freaking hilarious with Sean Connery as grandpa and their version of LXG. And Brock ends up kicking everyones ass, and was getting serious tail everynight in college.

I noticed on their bumps they were ragging on Saturday's ratings. I wonder how much longer Saturday anime night will last.

 

[Gribbix]

There was some legal hangup with the Leslie-bots. Apparently someone thought that they looked too much like some of Hajime Sorayama's drawings, which they were a reference to. Hell, the roomate's name in that episode is Mike Sorayama. Everything is all cleared up now so they are able to air it and include it in its unaltered form in the upcoming DVD set.

 

[Archaix]

I couldn't possibly care less about Squidbillies and 12 oz mouse, as the pilot episode for both was abysmal. However, I'm definately interested in watching Lucy, Daughter of the Devil, which I had sort of forgotten about.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I wasn't even thinking along the lines of legal issues.

They're already planning on putting the Boondocks repeat on Saturdays.

I think they knew all Sat. night action was going to plop. It's a rough night to do it on, with people going out and what not. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if many are taping the Sat. night action anime's to watch later.

 

[Rlan]

Yes New Harvey Birdman, I was getting widthdrawls with it being off the air for 2 weeks!

I hope they bring back Shaido The Brain Theif. He was hilarious.

"by the use of FOOOOORCE, against Mr. Bird-MAAAAAANNNN"

 

[DEO3]

Haven't they been changing thier schedule every week? I just figured they did it to keep ratings up during thier entire block (i.e. because people can never be sure when thier favorite shows will be on, so they tune in early and sit through the shows they could care less about waiting for thier shows to air - hence raising the ratings for all shows).

Ha, but their trickery did not work for Tom Goes the Mayor now did it!

Wait, it's gone isn't it? Please say so...please make it gone, my eyes bleed.
