Is this a bluff? How could she be capable of this?

EVIL Vegeta is back!!! ...sorta...

Come on, Gohan! You owe Piccolo more respect than that! He helped make you into the man you are today! Dogging him to try to score points with Videl--NOT COOL!

Yeah, I remember how mysterious and imposing he was when he first appeared, and Kai did a great job capturing that, but before long he'll be about as cool as Diana Ross and the Supremes! [see wut eye did thar]

Cool. Brought to us by Arby's. One Piece SHOULD have been sponsored by "Arrrrrrrrby's!" YOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!!

Is Mr. Satan's first name "Hercule"? Also, is DBZ Kai going to run without commercial interruptions??

What the hell are they up to!?

Let's see what Jack can do with its rerun...

Some recent rumors are indicating we may be heading right for it as soon as the current season of JoJo finishes! As for retention and show averages, well... 11:00 PM Samurai Jack 1,552,000 (105.72%) 11:30 PM Dragon Ball Super 1,251,000 (80.61%) 12:00 AM DBZ Kai: The Final Chapters 903,000 (72.18%) 12:30 AM JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 672,000 (74.42%) 1:00 AM Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn 569,000 (84.67%) 1:30 AM Hunter × Hunter 569,000 (100.00%) 2:00 AM Naruto: Shippuden 674,000 (118.45%) 2:30 AM One Piece 657,000 (97.48%) 3:00 AM Ghost In The Shell HD 602,000 (91.63%) TOTAL VIEWERS AVERAGE - 827,667 11:00 PM Samurai Jack 973,000 (115.01%) 11:30 PM Dragon Ball Super 733,000 (75.33%) 12:00 AM DBZ Kai: The Final Chapters 542,000 (73.94%) 12:30 AM JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 405,000 (74.72%) 1:00 AM Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn 339,000 (83.70%) 1:30 AM Hunter × Hunter 337,000 (99.41%) 2:00 AM Naruto: Shippuden 379,000 (112.46%) 2:30 AM One Piece 364,000 (96.04%) 3:00 AM Ghost In The Shell HD 334,000 (91.76%) ADULTS 18-49 TOONAMI AVERAGE - 489,556 The boost that Jack provided turned a below-average night into an above-average one!! As for the shows' running averages themselves... CURRENT SHOW AVERAGES Total Viewers Dragon Ball Super (8 PM) - 913,700 (10 episodes) Samurai Jack - 1,552,000 (1 episode) Dragon Ball Super (11:30 PM) - 1,215,900 (10 episodes) Dragon Ball Z Kai: Final Chapters - 1,072,700 (10 episodes) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - 925,000 (20 episodes) Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - 757,500 (10 episodes) Hunter × Hunter - 853,762 (42 episodes) Naruto: Shippuden - 873,903 (149 episodes) One Piece - 788,746 (177 episodes) Ghost In The Shell HD - 532,167 (6 episodes) Adults 18-49 Dragon Ball Super (8 PM, Estimate) - 431,100 (10 episodes) Samurai Jack - 973,000 (1 episode) Dragon Ball Super (11:30 PM) - 728,600 (10 episodes) Dragon Ball Z Kai: Final Chapters - 638,400 (10 episodes) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - 556,450 (20 episodes) Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - 448,900 (10 episodes) Hunter × Hunter - 503,476 (42 episodes) Naruto: Shippuden - 483,710 (132 episodes) One Piece - 429,182 (132 episodes) Ghost In The Shell HD - 321,500 (6 episodes) Adults 18-34 (Estimated) Dragon Ball Super (8 PM) - 285,333 (9 episodes) Samurai Jack - 707,000 (1 episode) Dragon Ball Z Kai: Final Chapters - 436,200 (10 episodes) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - 375,200 (20 episodes) Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - 307,700 (10 episodes) Gundam still sticks out like a sore thumb, which is why its fate shall be to air at 2 AM.

Turns out they're all streaming for free on Viz's website. http://www.viz.com/inuyasha Watch with someone you love! <3 Edit: It's a Hulu plug in, and it's pretty much in Shit-D. Not very useful, but it's there!

Pain. And it's coming up!!

No, Average Start Time (AST) is a real thing. I use it whenever a show doesn't complete its run in the same timeslot that it began. For example with a short show which changed timeslots, Hellsing Ultimate started at 3 AM for its first 2 episodes, aired 6 more at 2 AM, and then its final 2 were at midnight. To get its average start time, you do the math: (3 x 2 + 2 x 6 + 0 x 2)/10 = (6 + 12)/10 = 18/10 = 1.8. And finally, since 0.8 x 60 = 48, that makes its AST 1:48. Similarly, One-Punch Man aired its first 10 episodes at midnight, and its last 2 at 12:30. So it would be (0 x 10 + 0.5 x 2)/12 = 1/12. As 1/12 of 60 is 5, that makes its AST 12:05. It becomes useful if you graph ASTs on one axis and average ratings on the other at determining definitively whether a show overperforms or underperforms!

They won't be. It will be the next Parasyte, with the only difference being that those ratings will actually look GOOD for 1 AM against the dumpster-ratings we've been seeing lately from Gundam shows! Parasyte looked like crap when compared to SAO II and Michiko & Hatchin at first in 2015, but then got quite a bit better. Tokyo Ghoul will probably blow Gundam Unicorn's average of 758K out of the water, and might even beat Gundam IBO's 882K average in that timeslot. But beating the likes of SAO II (991K at 1 AM); Michiko & Hatchin (1102K at 1 AM), and Parasyte (1048K, only aired at 1 AM) might be a tall order. Don't get me wrong; I like the Gundam shows. Of course I do! But I can't deny that they haven't really been that great for ratings.

The question is, is Gundam Unicorn still going to be considered a "cable original" if it airs that late in the night? The latest timeslot anything considered a cable original aired was 1:30 AM (InuYasha: The Final Act; Sword Art Online II) Then again, it actually got beat by 2 AM "FILLER" on ESPN last week so I'm leaning toward "yes!"

Well they better decide what the hell they're going to do soon because this sort of thing wreaks havoc on DVRs! Remember when One Piece and Soul Eater flip-flopped in 2013? I believe the same happened of One Piece and Gurren Lagann! I guess we really won't know for sure until Pre-Flight tomorrow; I just hope on-screen guides can keep up with what changes, whatever it is.

I thought Tokyo Ghoul was very old but it turns out it's not THAT old. It's a 2014-2015 series and its dub has only been out for less than 2 years, probably produced in 2015, which is similar to its lead-in JoJo. However, that's only for the first 5 weeks, as then JoJo either gets replaced by something else or its dub is a 2014 dub for 3 episodes (or I suppose a completely different dub from the test dub is an option, but since that test dub was done by Bang-Zoom, why?) That's well and good but it still sucks for Hunter x Hunter since it's a dub premiere!

It strikes me that its 18-minute runtime would be perfect for a serial interstitial like a TIE. But would it be able to be early enough at night to warrant one? Nah, probably not. It would just end up stuck in the midblock with 5-minute music videos to fill in the time!
