Welp, if this is true, Toonami stays as normal. Weird to be digging this out of the vault for AFTER Toonami, but there ya go. This will be the first time since 2012 that Toonami hasn't gotten a one-night extension for DST.

DODGEBALL, with Nen! 1 AM, only Toonami!

No. We really don't know HOW MANY people are watching Netflix originals, because they won't tell us. It's still quite possible that Dragon Ball Super's 900K-ish viewers during Toonami beat the hell out of whatever the hell Piracy-stumped Little Witch Academia did in the first night it came out! Is streaming that damn popular? We really don't know. Only clues we have are when music videos cross the one billion views mark, like when Carly Ray Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" crossed that mark earlier this week.

What is funny, is while it was premiering on FX last year, multiple reviewers were saying that each episode was like a call back to that episode number's season. In other words, episode 1 was reminiscent of AHS Season 1, episode 2 of Season 2, and so on. So guess what happens when the show reaches episode 6...?

Netflix trying to murder Toonami
OwlChemist81 replied to MasqueradeOverture's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Yeah, I found that name-drop a little odd. I don't THINK Snapchat does video anywhere on the scale of cable TV. However, it DOES have a few constantly-streaming news "channels" (which operate similarly to adult swim's streaming marathon "channels") like "E! News Rundown," "NBC Stay Tuned," and "CNN The Update". There are several others with less-sophisticated video that provide continuously rolling "factoids", including one for the NFL. It's a small platform in its infancy, but it could grow quite a bit from there. I'd say only a matter of time (maybe in 2018), that an anime interest finds its way to the fledgling platform! -

It's not just Toonami--Netflix is trying to destroy all of pay TV! https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2017-10-12/pay-tv-s-salad-days-are-gone-in-painful-time-for-at-t-viacom -
You'd think they'd announce something soon...

Maybe we'll get JoJo's for Thanksgiving after all. That would be episodes 7ish-15 instead of 4-12, but I'll take it, especially if it gives me another chance to record Episode 10. Another Christmas marathon would also do that, but it would be more like 10-18. Episode 7 would be a bad episode to start a marathon, because of what happens in that episode! And yeah, it's Season 5. Now that THAT little mystery has been solved, how about that November 4th DST's end bonus hour? -

Just announced. I gotta say I didn't see this coming, and sorry but I won't be watching that night. Well, at least not ALL night. Might turn it on when I get back from a football game trip! The question is, will it be Season 5, or will it go back to the beginning? -

Maybe, but ironically that's not really true of OVAs and other special events, despite the fact that Netflix's model is pretty much hard-wired in favor of them. I don't see Netflix getting the Dragon Ball Super special, for instance. Hmmm...
