Wow, when did adult swim become so god awful?
 
That puppet show and all these live action shows are completely unwatchable.

Jura 02-26-2007 04:11 AM

I have stopped tuning in for a long time. I've either seen all the episodes 10,000 times or there's not really any new good stuff.l

Funky Fly 02-26-2007 04:11 AM

Yeah, it was inevitable. So much success, so quickly. It's like the network was just like "anything you guys do is gold, so just do whatever".

And that's exactly what they did. :'(

All this terrible crap:

Smoking Gun
Assy McGee
Saul of the Mole Men
That other live action shits
Their latest selection of anime

ALL TERRIBLE

Bleach is actually a good series, but the voice actors they got for the English version are fucking horrible.

Vietnamese Crippler 02-26-2007 04:27 AM

The only good part is the anime block on Saturdays, even then it's pretty bad because of, like Funky said, the terrible voice acting :n:

BRING BACK BIRDMAN :mad:

Fignuts 02-26-2007 10:08 AM

Fuck bring back birdman, home movies, space ghost, the brak show, sealab, venture bros. and turner and hooch.

Fignuts 02-26-2007 10:09 AM

And what ever happened to that conan parody that was supposed to start? That pilot a while back was freaking awesome.

Mr. Monday Morning 02-26-2007 10:20 AM

Venture Bros has been signed up for 2 more seasons, next one won't air until 2008 tho

Metalocalypse is awesome.

Funky Fly 02-26-2007 07:03 PM

Yeah, Metalocalypse is all I watch on it now, aside from the occasional Futurama and Family Guy.

Destor 02-26-2007 07:20 PM

The live action shit sucks. Other than that, it's not so bad...well the puppets...but yeah. They still have good stuff. Just kinda spaced out.

Brak and Sealab 2021 were on late last night on AS.

Fignuts 02-26-2007 07:36 PM

I wish they would make more turner and hooch. That show is amazing. The Christmas episode is one of the funniest episodes of any adult swim show ever.

Destor 02-26-2007 07:41 PM

I likes that show. It iz teh goodz.

DAMN iNATOR 02-26-2007 07:41 PM

Also, last night's Family Guy was interesting, due to the fact it didn't seem to be a rerun, it was some sort of winter themed ep. sans the usual theme song, and more sophisticated looking credit screens for the intro. which was pretty cool...I think [as] has some staying power if it plays it's hand right.

Destor 02-26-2007 07:44 PM

It pulls in a hell of a lot more ratings than childrens programming would (bed times and all.) So yeah, it isn't going anywhere, I think the issue here was quality.

weather vane 02-26-2007 09:34 PM

turner and hooch is an unreal movie

Fignuts 02-26-2007 09:43 PM

LOL I meant Stroker and Hoop.

YOU SEE? They've putting on so much crap lately, that I forgot the name of the show.

See my silhouette on the curtain
Why I'm wearing a dress in uncertain
When I steal your dough you'll be hurtin'
From the stabin' in the shower
With the spigot on hot

Fantastic episode. :'(

Skippord 02-27-2007 06:11 AM

Adult Swims golden days are long gone :'(

I'll just have to watch my downloaded goodness.

Triple A 02-27-2007 03:31 PM

Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job is amazing. I have no idea what you are talking about.

94 SVT Cobra 03-02-2007 09:13 PM

to be honest, when DID adult swim start sucking? right after they put saved by the fucking bell on the show and EVERYONE loved it and then, they thought everyone loved it cause it was alive show. i remb getting neg repped out the ass when i said i hated that show on AS here, and now, you see why. i KNEW live action wasnt a good idea on that channel. circa 1980s or not.

Fignuts 03-03-2007 12:33 AM

Saved by the bell is fucking awful. I can't stand any show with lame family friendly humor. I understand the nostalgia factor, and saying you enjoyed it as a kid is not surprising. But watching it as a grown adult is unbearable.

loopydate 03-03-2007 02:53 AM

Today is the day of the Carnival of Feet
There'll be feet there and feet
And don't forget the feet!
I'll be there if I'm not somewhere else
At the one and only carnival of feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Yeah!

I miss The Brak Show. What I really miss is Cartoon Planet, but TBS, Coast 2 Coast, and the short-lived Brak Presents The Brak Show Starring Brak helped me get my Brak fix.

"Last time I was this happy, I was face-down in a pizza pie, eatin' my way to freedom!"

"Clarence the boy is dead. Say hello to Clarence the man! ...who just had sex."

B: Hey, Zorak, can I ask you a question?
Z: Yeah, what?
B: Where are we gonna find enough squirrels to make a kite?
Z: Are you really that stupid?
B: [Chokes] I dare you to say that again! Only this time, say "Brak, I love you!"
