i could go.

i live in san diego after all.

but isn't the comic con happening on the twenty sixth?

like doesn't it start that day?

[googergieger]

oh and who in their right mind likes EVERYTHING on adult swim?

majority of the stuff thats good on adult swim isn't even adult swim original.

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

Who knew a silly Jonny Quest parody could create so much drama?

is season three started yet? if so im curious as to what that implies.

Naw their original stuff rocks it hard, but then I enjoy watching things that are mind-bogglingly weird, surreal, or maybe even a little dadaist. Adult Swim delivers. I love that there's a network out there that's not afraid to toy with its viewers. :^)

I was watching old Brak episodes, and everything from the bumpers to the color of the screen when they use the famous white text, it was all so different.  It's a good thing they can keep evolving, it's such a great network.

Because of Venture Bros., I did check out some of the other Adult Swim stuff, and with the exception of Robot Chicken, I pretty much hated everything.  I mean, I like weird and all, but it also has to be funny for me to enjoy it.  Frankly, most of the stuff I saw anyone of us could've cobbled together in about 10 minutes.

[RVR II]

Yeah, Same Here.
Adult Swim lost me as well.. Ren & Stimpy was wierd, but Funny, Space Goast Coast 2 Coast was unusual and Funny as well.
If they brought back Space Goast; Coast 2 Coast, I'd probably watch that again!

[Hebs]

The Space Ghost Coast to Coast episode with Adam West made me sad.   It's probably my affinity for him, but making him suffer through the awkward silence was tedious. 

You definitely have to be in the right mood for Adult Swim.  I love Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job, but sometimes they can have real clunker episodes.  I guess they have more than a few because their new time slot is 1:30AM!

venture bros is a parody of a lot of things really. also kind of an americanized anime sort of thing in that it actually shows violence.

adult swim is teh random network for all us hardcore punk rock emo indie elite kids!

or you know scene kids.


seriously whats good on adult swim.

good.

futurama
home movies
venture bros.
mission hill
harvey birdman(went downhill fast though)

thats like two original adult swim things there.

robot chicken is the worst show on television.

kablam>robot chicken

space ghost.....really hit and miss. definitely  a plus its only fifteen minutes.

[Sharktopus]

I like the Sealab 2021 episodes with Captain Murphy. They're good for when I get the occasional random weirdness itch I need to scratch.

Who knew a silly Jonny Quest parody could create so much drama?

is season three started yet? if so im curious as to what that implies. 

Not yet, but you can just sense the plot thickening when it comes back.

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

how can it get thicker lol, any thicker and it will become a soap opera.

Thus my original question:

And we come full circle.

[googergieger]

i was dressed up as xena and hercule's lovechild.

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

Almost completely agree with that list. Noy big on home movies or mission hill, but I'd add the brak show and sealab(RIP). Not too big of a ATHF fan anymore, kind of lost me after a while, no development. But I watch robot chicken every chance I get. Loved the star wars special.
