wtf...? Saved by the Bell on Adult Swim? Alright, all jokes aside, it's been like months since I've tuned in on AS (i missed FMA, SC, sCRYd, etc) Why is Saved by the f**kin Bell on AS?
Was it some kind of AS joke? Adult Swim has done it... They have fallen down the poop chute.

Well, they've also put a Peewee Herman show I used to watch when I was really little on their line-up...that I don't understand either...But some guy won the Have It Your Way sweepstakes and he got to choose their program line-up. And he picked Fooly Cooly for the FIRST THREE HOURS!!! WHEEEE!!!! And that's like...the whole series!(only six episodes!) XD HELLS YEAH, MY BUDDI!

Adult Swim enjoys pissing people off...it was all a joke...they have a terrible sense of humor. Like on April Fool's Day when they inserted farting sounds in GITS SAC 2nd gig...wasn't funny at all.
Now, some good stuff they have coming up.
They did the Burger King contest once again. The "have it your way" thing, this time, an otaku won. The guy/girl chose the following shows: FLCL-all 6 episodes, Cowboy Bebop-The Real Folk Blues part 1& 2, Paranoia Agent-Double Lips, Happy Family Planning, Trigun-Under the Sky so Blue, FMA-Mother.
I think those are all the shows. It'll start this Saturday at 11:00 p.m.(eastern time)
For the Fall, they acquired Bleach(dissapointing in my eyes), Trinity Blood(it is supposed to have a horrible ending or something)
I hope they pick up Blood + in order to make up for the crappy shows they picked this year.

Bleach is very popular, not as much as Naruto but I believe it's kinda close. And yeah, that insertion of farting sounds was pathetic.... I turned it off half way through. If they did that to 1 of my favorite anime I'd jump through the TV and kill them.

Farting noises....I simply can't find the humor in that...and especially when they insert it in one of favorite animes and on an episode I have yet not seen....bastards....they hate anime in general and make it pretty obvious...
Even IFC got better anime than Adult Swim this year....I no longer have any respect for it.

adult swim can hate anime all they want to, because it still doesn't change the fact that it brings them a big chunk of their viewers. |

Comedy brings them the biggest chunk of their viewers...and Inuyasha used to do that in the past.
Now they simply complain about the low number of viewers on Saturday while at the same time, they make no effort to promote their new animes....the bastards....

well i never said anime brought the largest number of viewers, but still a considerable amount.
i haven't watched adult swim in quite a while, but i remember the days when all hell would break loose if they removed inuyasha from the lineup.

There's only 8 episodes left of Inuyasha. I'll be amused on what the Inuyasha fans have to say when they find out that there are no more episodes beyond episode 167. They'll be pissed.
Hell, they are even pissed off now that AS is no longer airing new episodes of Inuyasha.

I've abandoned adult swim for AIM in the past 2-3 weeks.
However, despite all the shit AS does, and how annoying they are, you have to admit. Their bumps are f**king hilarious. And they do bring us anime, whether or not they like it.

Bleach will be a nice addition for them. They'll get quite a few viewers, or at least, they should. Btw everyone, this board is alive again: torakuen.proboards59.com/index.cgi |

Bleach should bring a lot of viewers, that is what its purpose is, I bet AS only acquired it because they knew it would have good ratings.
Trinity Blood, well, I'm not sure about that one, I suppose it will have a limited following like WR or WHR.
Eureka 7 is actually a great anime, but they are airing it quite late, not pretty good with the ratings I suppose. Oh well, people's tastes are screwed up like that.
