does adultswim have a fetish for dragon ball super?

Jason DeMarco does not make the adult swim schedule. How do you not know this?

Yeah this probably isn’t at least mostly Jason’s decision. AS programming decides the schedule and contracts often dictate when shows can air.

AS schedules are a bunch of stubborn nimrods though and Jason will defend anything they do.

early on in the pandemic it made sense because they were desperate for any kind of content on the block and this helped act as filler

now....it's just weird   2 year old dbs reruns don't really help anyone  the dbs anime isn't returning anytime soon and people who watch dbs typically run away from any other show

You have to imagine adult swim isn't happy with that and this contract has put them in a very frustrating position

where the next lead show will most likely be something too niche to attract mainstream attention

all while MHA S5 lives in the shadow of DBS Reruns...

I think it's more that DBZ is the only other anime ubiquitous in the west besides Pokemon so even when people have already seen it and/or hate it, it still pulls in an audience

but what will replace it when it's rerun eventually ends? will they just restart from the beginning....

If Demarco and co. had no influence the scheduling would be even more stupid like it was in the ASA days.  The term "scheduling monkies" existed for a reason back then.  It seems like Demarco likes to accept credit or pass the buck when it's convenient.
