I love the guys work and found him really friendly during the AMA he did, but he does seem to complain a lot when he should just be happy his stuff is getting made and being well received

I really don’t see why they need Primal on the block. It’s fine just not being there if the only choice is it being an almost week old rerun

Yeah, I pretty much laugh at CNN’s attempts to pander towards an audience who will never watch them. Anyone who is right wing immediately says “fake news” when hearing those three letters despite those efforts. Regardless, having the same big corporations running multiple news outlets just doesn’t sit right with me and I think it’s going to make people lose trust even more than they do now

Honestly, the block doesn’t need a Primal encore with how stacked they are. Usually the show is used as a quasi lead when they have nothing else. They’ll probably do it anyway, but there really is no benefit to the block airing this in the front other than a “Hey it aired on the block” badge. A week old rerun won’t perform the same as a 2 day old one.

They need to have a solid lineup secured going into January. History has shown if they don’t, it’s weeks sometimes months of nothing. I don’t know why that is, but it’s happened so many times. Nothing gets done in December and negotiations take several weeks if not longer if they don’t start until early January. But if they run out of money, there’s no other alternative Thats why it’s best to have shows that don’t all end in December. You need things to carry you through at least February

You can count on any show that’s not a straight up comedy to appear on the block as a rerun at midnight if they have no more headliner or original I was starting to worry that if things got even more off the rails this year- midnight was going to be Oh God Yes and Woman with Shoulder Pads

They won’t need a budget refresh for it. Toonami will likely do a same week encore. Maybe it’ll premiere there, but I’m not counting on that. Either way, it’ll absolutely be the headliner

The real one is if they air that and MASHLE side by side

Im curious why they created a slot by taking off Sailor Moon We’ll see

So I guess it’s the usual stalling and checking the Facebook next Friday

It won’t be Rooster Fighter, that won’t be until next April Anything else at this con that might be interesting. Aniplex panel perhaps?

We can only assume they are stalling for something now. They wouldn’t waste a Dragonball for nothing Also RIP Sailor Moon

A little worried here because unless they expand or decide NOT to rerun Lazarus, where would they fit a new show?

This is such a far cry from the days of Adult Swim announcing most of their anime pickups at the upfronts- even ones airing much later that year Going way back- Toonami announcing Gundam Wing and Tenchi Muyo in the fall of 99 when the later didn’t air until the following summer!
