I Can't really see one piece leaving the block again not anytime soon anyways because Toei still seems to care a lot about american cable tv hence why One Piece was able to return

and a 5/19 marathon on adultswim

Yeah that was for DVR Theater...A late night spot where adultswim would air shows like that to fill time although it seems like they no longer have interest in something like that anymore Adultswim is looking for more reliable shows and has no interest in the experimental night owl approach they once employed which is a shame because that experimental mindset is what made adultswim so cool and interesting You Could get stuff like Tim And Eric Great Job you could get frankenhole frisky dingo or bizarre infomercial style shorts adultswim was when the night owls came out and took over....Now though? it's less "Adultswim is this night owl's hang-out" and more like "adultswim is where you go if you wanna watch a couple hours of KOTH" Adultswim used to have more than one show occupy the sunday night line-up with new episodes but now it's just one show gets all the attention for sunday nights and then when it's over something else will take it's place...being the one new show on sundays

There's little reason for me to regularly tune into adultswim because i don't feel like watching hours of american dad or king of the hill I Like adultswim for the adultswim content not for the acquired sitcoms they use to pad out the line-up each night and as such i miss when there was more than one adultswim original airing in a single night when sunday's weren't just "Royal Crackers" or whatever the flavor of the month show happens to be for [AS] at that time when Adultswim's experimental night owl shows weren't being phased out and bumpers weren't so damn boring

At this point it just feels like one piece is a filler show on the block but one that's very confusing because it's never gone back to double episodes even when the schedule has been as lackluster as it is now and it really needs more than a single episode with how crappy it's pacing is

Now we know a day before this...there's gonna be a unicorn marathon on toonami

whatever the show is...This Japanese Production company doesn't want toonami to have it anytime soon

which is a shame because it's very important and sets up events for season 3 without it You'd be very confused

after this sunday there will be one episode left in the season... they really rushed through season one by airing the first three episodes in a single night

You Are starting to get really annoying with this whole "It's A Childish Show" Nonsense

Can't sign up for it on the website though you gotta do it through the app which means working through apple/google.... I've heard they can make subscription services awkward to handle and if you have problems then you gotta contact apple/google

still there's gotta be some reason why they don't wanna put futurama anywhere except the graveyard slot it used to have a better spot on the lineup when it first returned but then they started airing it near the conclusion of the night's schedule

they could have done something with futurama with this extra time but instead they chose more king of the hill....so I have my doubts that'll change when bobs leaves

i wonder if The Hulu Revival had anything to do with adultswim just dumping it in the graveyard slot

I Guess they'll just shove in more KOTH when they lose bobs burgers

Yeah But Hannibal had his own career to think about so i can see why he left

makes you miss the days when adultswim was weird and experimental....

This Show really needs to be doubled up again(when the episode was over I Was Like really?...oh right the pacing) the fact they stopped doubling it up and have not gone back to it full time is still bizarre also i noticed this topic has fewer posts than last week....actually now that i look at it that seems to be the case for the other shows as well

Jeez I Can see nobody's that interested in discussing the MHA S6 reruns

This Topic Sure is Quiet...Not Sure If Few People here even like royal crackers or if it's just the fact this site doesn't get much action typically

Given How Nielsen Ratings Work I Wouldn't go assuming these are dedicated toonami fans and more likely just people channel surfing with nothing else to do few people in the toonami fanbase have even seen a Nielsen box I've Never Seen one or known anybody whose had one at all

so far i don't think adultswim is gonna gain much with that extra hour....

-those three shows he lamented toonami never got to air were escaflowne slayers and magic knight rayearth -Fox Kids indeed did pick up Escaflowne simply to prevent Toonami from airing it. (Although, I did hear that they tried to get Magic Knight Rayearth less because of their interest, and more because it was offered to them through Ocean and TMS back in '95, and they passed on it due to DBZ and Sailor Moon not doing so well in syndication, but Toonami being successful and Fox Kids' own success with Digimon caused them to reconsider) -So apparently Yu Yu Hakusho was bound for Toonami before the decision to air it on AS, but was later moved to Toonami anyway due to higher ratings with the K6-11 and T9-14 demographics than AS's 18-35. -Do not count on anything Criterion Collection related ever airing on Toonami, and no it's not budget reasons. -He worked on "The Mouse in The Mask" album by Danger Doom -Outside Toonami shows, Check It Out! with Dr. Steve Brule is his favorite Adult Swim show. (I don't know if he worked on it between Toonamis, like he said about Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, so it could be one of his "babies", per se) -Even in the CN area, there was no way they could air the Daft Punk music videos for Random Access Memories. Their budget was bigger, but just not big enough for where they were in their career at the time. -Either he's backpedaling or the real reason CN didn't let them air Evangelion was because they didn't think it would do well enough in ratings and GRW was his chance to prove it could, and that failed just like Nadesico. (I could have sworn that before he said it was just too much to edit for CN's standards so they used GRW as an excuse to be able to air it at all.) -Whoever predicted this was correct: The network used 9/11 as a convenient excuse to stop airing Mobile Suit Gundam prematurely, because neither CN nor Toonami wanted to air it and Bandai essentially forced them to, and it got low ratings (possibly on purpose). (It wasn't discussed, but I'm willing to believe Bandai had a huge foothold on CN and Toonami - .hack//SIGN was apparently going to continue airing reruns into the City Era before it was replaced with Legend of the Twilight Bracelet. There's even a "Now/Then" City Era bumper face with it used on Legend's premiere date. It also explains why DICE and Gundam SEED's burnoffs immediately happened while Yu Yu Hakusho's was delayed.) -None of the other Toonami original shows will use CGI/3D, besides FLCL: Grunge -The whole idea of Toonami came from Sean Akins. DeMarco himself came up with the name though. -Jason DeMarco is "full time developing and producing now" since Discovery stepped in.

so today Adultswim officially starts at it's new earlier time....still think it's gonna be weird getting used to this
