Which is weird, if it pays that much, you would think it’s in high demand. Yet adding “professional complete and total fuckup 24/7” to my resume has not gotten me any calls.

No shit, that doesn’t make it less funny.

It’s almost perfect, but we need Demarco’s Ninja Kamui character in the audience crying and shitting his pants.

1. Let Paramount win 2. Both companies collapse under giant debt 3. Both companies get sold off for a bargain price to cover essential expenses 4. Netflix gets them both for pennies on the dollar 5. ??? 6. Profit

That obviously would be part of it, but that alone isn’t really a prank unless the joke is baked into one of the episodes. They premiered the season in the fall, no good reason to hold two episodes nearly 6 months after the fact. Remember, the Brazil episode was supposed to be an April Fools joke but they missed the window for it. So we already know Smiling Friends pranks are on the table.

I was just thinking the same thing. It’s a little earlier than we usually expect, but this feels like it could be the framework of an elaborate prank. The punchline is Smiling Friends is cancelled, but a new show that’s exactly the same with a different title is taking its place, as we saw with Aqua Teen. Or maybe I’m just coping because I want ONE year where the prank isn’t some half baked Rick and Morty thing.

Big respect to them for doing this. It takes a lot to do self reflection and see your show has run its course. Even moreso when dropping it means giving up an established, paying contract. They are choosing when the show ends rather than getting cancelled after AS beats it to death. I agree though about AS, this may not have been their biggest show, but it was becoming one of their cornerstones, and the creators just peaced out after agreeing to at least two more seasons. That’s gonna leave a schedule hole down the road.

Hey look, we got schedule updates on time for once. A DST one where nothing really changes, and the expected Rooster Fighter bookend for the 14th. It doesn’t specify sub though so not sure if it’s that or just a double showing

Quite the contrary, this is a beacon of hope. It looks like this is more of a Space Dandy situation, where AS isn’t paying to work on it, but rather paying to secure the premier. Which would mean this won’t have Demarco’s usual kiss of death on it, and they won’t maintain the rights forever so it’s reruns don’t get beaten to death.

Curtis in the summer, R&M S9 in the fall is my guess

No. Rewind was a massive failure that caused 2 years worth of damage to the Saturday block. They need to keep their anime focus exclusively on Saturday. If they want to drop more money on anime, it should be on newer, relevant titles for Saturday. We have 3 dead rerun slots they could fill in. Checkered Past is fine because it’s free for them to operate.

I wonder what happened? Usually we don’t see this kind of flip flopping anywhere on the schedule. Daima still remains a very short commitment at only 2 weeks at this pace, so many they put it on then till May when they lose it?

It makes more sense to use either Sailor Moon or Naruto right now, because they will lose those on May 31st. Daima can be a filler show after they can’t use those two any more. Also helps that now Daima isn’t being double stripped, where if it would have ran 2x on weekdays, it would pass the Toonami rerun in just 1.5 weeks. Now it can take a couple months of rest before getting added back in June.

Huh, that’s kind of a weird time for it to start, as Primal should run till March 21st. Not that I’m going to bat for that rerun, it just seems like sloppy scheduling. 3/14 is the night Bleach ends I think, guess it makes sense having a Viz show replace a Viz show. I suppose Primal could be less than 10 episodes, though they never make Genndy pinch pennies. Maybe a back to back finale?

This should be entertaining to watch. The people who would usually be against this type of merger due to it consolidating too much power under one umbrella, will completely abandon those ideals and push for the merger to happen, for no other reason than Trump being against it.
