There's Adult Swim, and there's Adult Swim. There's a pretty big difference between quality stuff like The Boondocks, Frisky Dingo, The Venture Bros, Rick and Morty, Home Movies and the bad stuff like most of the other shows. Archer is part of the former.

Sure. Rick and Morty is my favourite new show of last year. So good.

Gamespot commenters keeping it classy:

Fuck's sake.

Gamespot has no moderation it seems.

The Lego Island themed Bombcast thread is pretty great. Time to rewatch the Lego Island UPF I think.

This is true. There's a lot of Adult Swim I can't stand but the shows you listed are all fantastic.

 

[Data West]

First like 4 years of Adult Swim are still the best.

I can take or leave Boondocks.

real talk, though

I feel like Adam Reed's stuff's only gotten better

Archer is better than Frisky Dingo is better than Sealab 2021

Sealab is by far the worst, but has its moments. I prefer Frisky Dingo, but Archer is incredible too. Can't go wrong with that guy.

Really good Bombcast this week btw. Team Kirkhope.

Hey, everyone! What are we all talking about? Archer? Right on!

Waking Quinn is a dope 11 minutes of television. Hesh's segment is the best work MC Chris has done outside of his crybaby thing after that one show where he kicked some guy out for talking shit on Twitter.

Kirkhope's shit always just felt like kiddy funtime playland music. David Wise, though? God damn did that dude make some fucking music.

I actually have something of substance to say about what you mention in your edit message but I'm not supporting that bullshit by indulging.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

they read my mail in the bombcast! It's the kevin smith one~

 

[ShaggsMagoo]

Nothing compares with the old school not giving a fuckness of Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Having an episode where Space Ghost crawls after an ant for 15 minutes is some next level shit. They got close with Harvey Birdman, but that is what Adult Swim should strive to be. (And yes, I know that technically Space Ghost came before Adult Swim proper, but it still counts.)

Squidbillies is one of the worst things I've ever seen.

you know what episode of space ghost is best

Spoiler

flipmode is the greatest

 

[Egg0]

Home Movies is so good. I bought the 10th anniversary set a few years ago.

I end up watching through all of it a few times a year.

 

[daydream]

i haven't watched too much adult swim stuff but the little i have seen was characterised by its utter distastefulness

have a good night everyone!

You don't watch near enough tv then.

 

[BUNTING1243]

YESSSSSSSS

 

[Bacon]

The plot thickens

 

[TraBuch]

I know nothing about Danielle. Link me something that'll bring me on the bandwagon.

Also, I've always had a soft spot for The Brak Show.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

You guys love setting yourself up to be let down.

She was on a Danswer recently and was great.

Someone has defied the consensus.

Seize them!

Are you a Squidbillies fan?

 

[BUNTING1243]

She was great on Danswers, is a regular on Idle Thumbs, and writes pretty great articles on Polygon.

i've never cared for her articles all that much but she seems pretty cool otherwise

¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[CambriaRising]

Not a fan of her, so I hope it isn't her.

 

[robotrock]

This would be pretty awesome.

 

[Data West]

Are you a Squidbillies fan?

Sure

 

[daydream]

she was cool and all on danswers but i dunno, didn't really seem particularly entertaining

likeable enough but not sure she'd fit in, basically

tbf the topic of fitness is kinda dry so maybe she didn't have the best material to work with

She was on an episode of Danswers http://www.giantbomb.com/podcasts/danswers-06-fitness-with-danielle/1600-1178/

I don't think Danielle is the new hire though.

 

[Liquid Shake]

Not really too familiar with Danielle's work but I'm all for the new hire happening sooner rather than later. I have faith in Jeff to choose the best candidate, so let's get to it!

 

[Rainmaker]

There's a lot of Adult Swim I can't stand but when it's/was good it is/was really good. All of the Tim and Eric stuff. Steve Brule. Xavier Renegade Angel. Home Movies. Frisky Dingo. The occasional early ATHF. Space Ghost Coast 2 Coast was life for awhile.

I think Danielle would be a great fit. My preference obviously isn't happening but I'd be more than happy with her joining.

 

[Bacon]

Steve Brule is incredible

 

[Chuck]

Girl that ruined idle thumbs potentially ruining gbeast?

Fuck that.

 

[BUNTING1243]

Girl that saved idle thumbs potentially massively improving gbeast?

Fuck that.

fixed that for you buddy

 

[Kurdel]

Girl that ruined idle thumbs potentially ruining gbeast?

Fuck that.

Nope you are wrong, Danielle is amazing.

 

[Chuck]

fixed that for you buddy

lol good one

At least I can listen to idle thumbs again

 

[SlowRevolution]

Girl that ruined idle thumbs potentially ruining gbeast?

Fuck that.

lol. she saved that podcast.

It's gonna be dire without her.

she was cool and all on danswers but i dunno, didn't really seem particularly entertaining

no one's entertaining on danswers.

 

[Mully]

It's going to be Scott Pelley. He's not well known but he's done a lot of great video features over the years. He'd be great on camera with the crew.

Wouldn't have to go through the CBS Background check either. Good call.

I heard that John King was in the running at some point too, but CBSi seems to want to hire from within now.

 

[BanGy.nz]

#HireCara ended with her leaving the industry please don't put that evil on Danielle.

 

[SlowRevolution]

Paul Shaffer will be looking for work pretty soon.

 

[hamchan]

Girl that ruined idle thumbs potentially ruining gbeast?

Fuck that.

Idle Thumbs was declining and dying a slow death before she came on.

 

[daydream]

no one's entertaining on danswers.

the two hosts are. and jeff, and vinny, and nikki, and...
