Oh damn, just noticed this was an extended PRIMAL promo!

Damn, I just don't know if I can make it up for 2+ more hours of this...

Good to see some of y'all are still with me! Episode #126: "Surpass Even A God! Vegeta's Sacrifice Strike!!"

Who's ready for more??? Episode #125: "A Commanding Presence! The Advent of The Red Comet...JUST KIDDING!...Top The Destroyer!!"

Wow, we're ALREADY down to just Jiren and Top in Universe 11?? And six minutes--uhh--half-hours remain!

Knowing how this turns out now, this part is making me laugh my ass off!

GET READY FOR... Episode #124: "A Storm-and-Stress Assault! Gohan's Last Stand!"

HELL YEAH!!! -Krillin And man, Jiren and Goku really going at it!

How about this little bonus? Wish I could find the full version of the dub... Episode #123: "Body, Soul, and Power Unleashed! Goku and Vegeta!!"

"You say I'm arrogant? I say DAMN RIGHT!" -Vegeta

Oh yeah! Too bad we couldn't get THAT marathon... Then again, it would have been the entire weekend! No WAY [as] would let THAT happen!

Wow, you're right!!!

Oh COME ON! The [as] version of the epilepsy warning throughout this marathon is just gonna be OFF-PUTTING AS HELL!!! Now we have... Episode #122: "With His Pride On The Line! Vegeta's Challenge To Be The Strongest!!"

"YAY FOR FLYING!" Sometimes it seems like the Zenos are huge fans of U7, but rather than throw the yellow flag, they actually wanna push U7's power to the limit!

PRIMAL is gonna be AWESOME!!!! I'm definitely lookin' forward to it!

I gotta rewatch at 3-ish my time...

AND THAT'S HOW PAN WAS BORN, HEE HEE!

"What in the Cosmos" indeed, Beerus. What in the cosmos indeed!!!

aALLLLLL RIGHT!!!!! Now that the premiere episode is over, let's enjoy the rest of the MARATHON!!!! Episode #121: "ALL-OUT WAR! The Ultimate 4-Fold Union vs. The 7th Universe's Total Offensive!!!"

Yeah, but looking at the ratings, you must agree we probably SHOULD have had one on the 4th of July. However, I understand WHY we didn't. CN was going to gobble up the 8 PM hour (starting this Monday) and lose Dragon Ball Super's encore, which probably would have thrown it in Breach-Of-Contract. Then again, I guess they could have just encored it at 4 AM instead... Looking forward to seeing what the October 12th schedule will be (with dub premieres of OPM S2 and Demon Slayer), but if I'm right, DBS 131 will be somewhere on there...

This must happen in Dragon Ball Super Heroes? If Adult Swim is smart, they'll commission a real made-for-TV movie of Heroes and air that during a reborn Month of Movies, along with DBS: Broly.

If you consider each individual week, there was no Dragon Ball on the block the last time they ran a marathon (Boruto) on December 29, 2018. But on a monthly basis? You have to go back to October 2014 to find a month that a Dragon Ball show didn't air at least once on Toonami. Assuming no Dragon Ball airs on October 12--and I don't think we can--it will be November 8, 2014 to October 5, 2019--ALMOST FIVE YEARS OF DRAGON BALL!!! Either way, it's definitely almost 5 years of Dragon Ball PREMIERES!

Episode #130: "Greatest Showdown of All: The Ultimate Survival Battle!" Man, I can hardly believe it! Only 2 episodes left to go!! And stick around here and discuss the marathon tonight! It all begins at 11 PM tonight (9/28/19)!! ONLY TOONAMI!!

While in theory, what you're saying about streaming vs. linear TV is true, e.g., more convenient, better array of devices, I'd like to see the hard numbers that back up your claims. Aside from Netflix, who notoriously don't release their viewership numbers, I don't think ANY of these streaming services, including the grand-daddy of them all, YouTube, quite match up to their more "traditional" linear TV counterparts for MOST programming. And while we can analyze this data until we're blue in the face, we're not the ones who actually use it to make programming decisions. For all we know, a show with a 271K 18-49 average and multiple berths in the Top 10 might be good enough for the network to acquiesce to a 2nd season based on revenue from advertisers.

Manga/Light Novel success =/= anime success. I'm thinking Season 2 of SAO-A replaces Demon Slayer, but it COULD replace another show and show up earlier. Now that full 18-49 numbers are in, the actual growth in gen:LOCK at 11:30 over AOTS3 Part 2 is 15.98% if you also consider the midnight premiere of the next-to-last episode of the latter. (My math in the previous post on this topic DID.)
