I remember clearly that those shows were after Bleach/FMA encore, because I stayed up all night that night to watch the premiere of Code Geass R2. Thank goodness it got a rerun at 2 AM the following week, which for me was the very watchable 1 AM which Shippuden currently occupies!

Agreed. And when consistency is broken, there should be a hyped reason for it. I would say that the first major break from consistency of 2017, "moving" Jack from 8:30 PM to 11 PM (and having it join Toonami with premieres) has more than adequate hype. Moving the comedy reruns while keeping the Toonami shows consistent was a wise move!

At 8 PM, yes, though its peaks so far in each category are: 1,073,000 total viewers (2/25/17) 507,000 adults 18-49 (also 2/25/17, though 1/7/17 may have been higher at 0.4/~512K but we really don't know for sure since it was only reported also as "0.4") ~340,000 adults 18-34 (1/14/17) Its more "official" 11:30 Toonami airing (though technically a rerun) usually hits about 1.2M, peaking at 1.367M on 1/7/17--so far. With Samurai Jack Season 5 as its lead-in it should do MUCH better!

Another good week. Not great like this week the last 2 years, but "good": http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-3-4-2017.html Thanks to College Basketball, no shows made the Top 5 this week, but that's ok, because unlike last week all 3 Toonami shows made the Top 10! 3/4/2017 Dragon Ball Super (8 PM) - #16 Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.37 Estimated 18-34 - 251,000 ( 29.29% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.33 Estimated 18-49 - 423,000 ( 49.36% ) Total Viewers - 857,000 3/4/2017 DBZ Kai: Final Chapters - #6 Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.62 Estimated 18-34 - 421,000 ( 38.20% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.52 Estimated 18-49 - 667,000 ( 60.53% ) Total Viewers - 1,102,000 3/4/2017 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - #8 Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.53 Estimated 18-34 - 360,000 ( 38.26% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.43 Estimated 18-49 - 551,000 ( 58.55% ) Total Viewers - 941,000 3/4/2017 Gundam Unicorn - #9 Adults 18-34 Rating - 0.49 Estimated 18-34 - 333,000 ( 36.67% ) Adults 18-49 Rating - 0.41 Estimated 18-49 - 526,000 ( 57.93% ) Total Viewers - 908,000 DBZ KFC up slightly and JoJo steady in 18-49 despite shedding total viewers, while Gundam Unicorn just did better than it's done yet in every category except Adults 18-34. I believe this show is going to be kind of a "sleeper" hit, which would make sense since the later episodes correspond to harder-to-find episodes of the OVA, while the earlier episodes have been out for a while! I kind of expect the following for next week's disappearance of old Samurai Jack from 8:30 and much hyped premiere of SJ at 11:00 PM, as we should have 5 shows which make this chart: Dragon Ball Super @ 8 PM: 800K-1M; 300K-500K 18-49; 200K-350K 18-34 Samurai Jack @ 11 PM: 1.5M-1.8M; 800K-1M 18-49; 600K-800K 18-34 Dragon Ball Z Kai/Final Chapters @ 12 AM: 1.1M-1.3M; 700K-900K 18-49; 500K-700K 18-34 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure @ 12:30 AM: 900K-1.1M; 600K-800K 18-49; 400K-600K 18-34 Gundam Unicorn @ 1 AM: 900K-1.1M; 550K-750K 18-49; 350K-550K 18-34

Yeah, even if the ratings aren't as great as they used to be, we're in a MUCH better place now! BTW, that's not QUITE right; the first 2 AM hour was action and the 2nd was DST comedy filler. I think it was Halloween ATHF but I'm not sure. That might have been the following year! It will be interesting to see if Jack outrates Bleach from 8.5 years ago, but I'm pretty sure it will!

Not that that's a bad thing! This was a fun little episode, despite being hilariously condensed! I do wish that Toei weren't so much sticklers for preservation of Japanese names. It would have been utterly hilarious if the Kansai hick woman's sons were called "Jethro" and "Bubba" instead of their Japanese names. That part almost didn't make such sense. Also, in this Monday afternoon rewatch, I do believe this is the first time I've ever actually eaten KFC while watching DBZ KFC!

12 pages of discussion = yay! Finding out the last 2 are bitching about the old boards = boo! (Or should I say "Buu?") And I would say the theory that Gohan was a Super Saiyan at the point of ejaculation is a pretty good one, since if I were him I'd probably experiment with it! Maybe Super Saiyan Sperm blew right through a condom and that's why we have Pan? And as for Videl briefly going Super Saiyan herself, maybe it's like that thing where babies can sometimes heal their mothers' illnesses just so they can be born and survive?

Have you actually watched the dedicated stream? I tried but I wasn't able to get it, and recently they actually removed it from both the app and website, so I believe this is really all we get!

To get you ready for the premiere of BRAND-SPANKIN' NEW SAMURAI JACK this Saturday night at 11 PM on Toonami, the Toonami Marathon Stream is showing the last 10 episodes of the original Samurai Jack! We get episodes 43-47 from Monday to Wednesday night, then 48-52 from then to Friday night. I kinda wish they had gone with the episodes where Jack ALMOST gets back to the past (like 31/32), but whatever. Check it out, or don't, but get ready for Episode 53 (which oddly enough, carries the Roman numeral "XCII", which is "92") this Saturday night!!

The theme of DB Super was that Goku is a completely rude bumpkin, at least to King Kai. The theme of DBZ Kai FC was animals getting surprised at hilarious interactions between the Z families!

The logo EVERY time, even when non-cyberized people who actually saw it didn't approve? DAMN!!!

We're gonna need that "ongoing CO2 clean-up" as well in OUR world by 2030 at the rate things are going! AND THERE'S THE LAUGHING MAN!

Stuff like this makes me glad it's back on Toonami in 2017! PORN SOUNDS!

It's a DECOY! The real action is on TCM? Nope!

I missed recording the first few minutes of Belladonna of Sadness. --DAMN IT!

I think they shamelessly ripped off The Lion King a few minutes ago!

Yes indeed, the uber-talented Keith Silverstein! He's like the MVP of the post-Dragonball Franchise shows on Toonami these days!

Kurta eyes!? Really!?! F**k you, Gundam Unicorn Narrator!

Nobunaga!? Franklin!?! Did this show just cross over with Drifters!?! Also, Gundam Unicorn narrator is some kinda big shot!

What the hell am I even watching!? This is just too much to follow, and it's like all over the place and AHHHHHHHHH!

Oh yeah, it IS him!!!

What awesome visuals!!! ON to Hunter x Hunter!

Yes. This was the end of OVA #3.

I think that was him! AWESOME insert song!!!
