I'm thinking what we can expect from here is a slow build. Rick & Morty Season 3 seems to be helping! Hopefully this Fall we'll be looking at JoJo Stardust Crusaders consistently in the 900Ks and occasionally even cracking a million. For now though, gotta take the small victories and be happy with them!

Well, if it does happen, then I suppose that will mean no more 3-peats for Dragon Ball Super, and it will play at 9 PM and 11 PM. I believe DBS premieres at 8:30 PM MIGHT actually be preparation for it to slide up 30 more minutes. Like it or not, we're kinda stuck with 11 PM-3:30 AM right now, since I don't see Outlaw Star being jettisoned to 3 AM in the middle of its run, and for goodness sake these shows need to stay in their current timeslots for awhile so they can grow audiences! Like, for example, what we saw evidence of this week: Never thought I would actually be HAPPY to see a show get 700K at midnight, but that's where we're at. More importantly, Kai & JoJo completely obliterated the competition in 2 key demographics: Adults 18-34, and Men 12-34. In the latter, neither Live PD, ESPN Top Rank Boxing, nor UFC Fight Night even came close! 8/5/2017 Dragon Ball Super (8:30) #10 (-2) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.35 Estimated 18-34 - 238,000 ( 32.08% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.31 Estimated 18-49 - 397,000 ( 53.50% ) Total Viewers - 742,000 8/5/2017 DBZ Kai: Final Chapters #3 (+1) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.53 Estimated 18-34 - 360,000 ( 42.30% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.39 Estimated 18-49 - 500,000 ( 58.75% ) Total Viewers - 851,000 8/5/2017 JJBA: Stardust Crusaders - #4 (+3) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.48 Estimated 18-34 - 326,000 ( 46.44% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.34 Estimated 18-49 - 436,000 ( 62.11% ) Total Viewers - 702,000 8/5/2017 Tokyo Ghoul - #6 (+5) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.43 Estimated 18-34 - 292,000 ( 43.98% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.32 Estimated 18-49 - 410,000 ( 61.75% ) Total Viewers - 664,000 8/5/2017 Lupin the 3rd - #18 (STEADY) Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.27 Estimated 18-34 - 183,000 ( 39.02% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.24 Estimated 18-49 - 308,000 ( 65.67% ) Total Viewers - 469,000 Almost everything up from last week! The only exceptions were DBS's 18-34, Lupin's 18-34, and Lupin's total viewers. Still, I guess this is what a good night is like in this day and age. But I'm optimistic that the audiences for these shows will grow from here with few missteps, until we get deep into College Football season, at least.

Now it's DBZ KFC on the stream, but I don't know which episodes. I'm just guessing it's #11-#15, which would be 109-113 of the whole Kai series! And hopefully episodes 114-118 (#16-#20 of Final Chapters) take over later this week. Edit: the stream has advanced to the next 5 episodes of DBZ KFC as of last week!

There may not be an annual loss this year. I mean what the hell would CN do at this point, just play another hour of Teen Titans GO?

I mean, it can't get much worse than Season 2 did, right?

At this point in time, he was indeed the ultimate tragic hero! And also, man the wait after this part in the original DBZ was AGONIZING! Like a 9-month wait IIRC! Fortunately, we only need wait a single week for the continuation this time!!

The Original DBZ version of this episode is in fact where the 2001 season ended!

Plot twist: the 6th Universe earth is actually our earth!

Well, it's looking like [as] still doesn't give a shit about advertising Toonami during Rick & Morty. Sad!

This "Pickle Rick" episode that's on right now is a lot more brutal than I expected! Hell, this season has been pretty brutal!!

Super is only a problem because it's not premiering during Toonami. But at least during Countdown, there will be a good reason to watch it. AOT S2 should have had Midnight from episode 6 (#31) onward. Or maybe even 11:30. But I think JoJo is about right at midnight even if its numbers are low. But hopefully they'll increase slightly this week. Having new-ish episodes of Rick & Morty at 9 and 9:30 should help out a bit.

Yeah, for real! Another moment like that was the Ymir-Christa-Sasha scene...

That's Hiroyuki Sawano for you!! He's a veritable master at that!

What I wanna know is how friggin' strong was that bullet which blew her head off? I mean, she got her head squeezed by a force that would crush a normal human's head like a grapefruit in Episode 21! Must have been a really SUPER bullet that got used tonight!!

One more!

12 Universes? DAMN!!! Oh wait, wrong show...

Pain, you're goin' DOWN!!!

To their detriment! The "girly" year 2015 had better ratings than any other!

It's a real insult to absurdity that this hasn't been on [as] yet...

Yeah, I don't understand that either! Gonna have to rewatch to see what was going on!

I'm always blown away by this show! It's almost too good for its timeslot, though now it's placed a bit better!

Wow. Zenigata, you IDIOT! Your life is more important than catching Lupin!

Yeah, and you'll be seeing that one more time tonight, at least!!

Get you some, Pops!

This episode just started late.
