Home Movies is getting better, and Space Ghost and Brak are a little repeatative, so I pick Cowboy Bebop (when that was on)

― A Nairn (moretap), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 18:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Is the entire Adult Swim only in America?

― naked as sin (naked as sin), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 18:53 (twenty-three years ago)

i.e. they only show Home Movies and Baby Blues on the uk/ireland Cartoon Network and they've now stopped showing even them.

And "freakie outie"?

Another vote for Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Meatwad: "Well, if teeth make me gay, then sign me up!"

― mmesker (mmesker), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 19:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Space Ghost recently went to Braks house to arrest him for crimes he commits later in life. But it was later in life in his (SG's) old 60's show so it was really in the past. Man that was confusing.

― chaki (chaki), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 20:12 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll say Home Movies cuz it's the only one not completely based in the 'look it's dada!' ethos of most of the other Adult Swim shows (which I do love, just they can get a little repetitive and formulaic); plus I miss Dr. Katz. Space Ghost Coast to Coast is in a league of it's own still. The Aqua Teen Hunger ep with the pop-up ads was probably my single favorite Adult Swim ep that wasn't a Space Ghost.

freakie outie is the one song released by brendan poppins and the chimney sweeps. it is also currently the outgoing message on my answering machine. it's in the 'guitarmageddon' episode, which is being rerun soon and which i am watching right now.

"three hams will fill him, three hims will fill him, why don't you feed him -- Three hams"

― A Nairn (moretap), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 21:05 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah, thunderclease is great. also, home movies (though a bit INDYKID at times). why no love for sealab 2021 though? bebop cola = BEST THING EVAH.
(& in Aus/NZ, Mission Hill is part of Adult Swim - only seen the first episode - could be good, could be blah).

― Ess Kay (esskay), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 21:21 (twenty-three years ago)

sealab has been forgetting the funny as of late. also: 2002's breakout star = meatwad?

― chaki (chaki), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 22:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I heart all of them, but Brak will always be my favorite.

"Three hams will certainly kill him"

― Nicole (Nicole), Wednesday, 18 December 2002 22:12 (twenty-three years ago)

Cowboy Bebop is still on. I'd pick that but, I've seen 'em all already, so I pick Inuyasha.

― llamaskool, Thursday, 19 December 2002 00:17 (twenty-three years ago)

"We fight with JAZZ!" "Bring it on, Daddio!" Ess Kay you better have a good explanation for yr indykid comment. ;-))))))))))))))))))))))

mission hill is on adult swim in the us sometimes, too.

― maura (maura), Thursday, 19 December 2002 18:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Ess Kay, you are the only New Zealander I've met that has actually seen Adult Swim.

AND I SAY TO MYSELF
I NEED EXACT CHANGE

Sealab > ATHF > Harvey Birdman > the rest

― webber (webber), Friday, 20 December 2002 02:07 (twenty-three years ago)

AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE!!! It's grate! The moonmen are my heros. Oh my god, I never laughed so hard as that episode when they showed up with their stupid ass lasers and kept burning Meatwad with cigarettes.

Oh, and the best episode eva of Space Ghost is VERY EASILY the one with Bjork and Thom Yorke.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 20 December 2002 03:15 (twenty-three years ago)

ripping friends is a whole diff thang but its really good.

five months pass...

I've been slacking on Adult Swim for weeks and weeks because they were all re-runs for awhile, but I caught some again last Sunday. The 'Quinn goes on vacation' Sealab episode was pretty good. So have I been missing out, have there been bunches of new Brak/Harvey/Aqua Teen/Sealab eps?

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 5 June 2003 22:57 (twenty-three years ago)

The latest Harvey Birdman with the Blue Falcon was genius -- I don't want to get too spoilery, but it was very funny.

― Nicole (Nicole), Thursday, 5 June 2003 23:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Sealab rules the fucking lot.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Friday, 6 June 2003 00:03 (twenty-three years ago)

Shit, after the Quinn-on-vacation-disco-bear episode, Sealab is my favorite show ever.

You are Jodene Sparks

You are Sealabs smart-ass communications expert. You position as radio operator is, however, advantageous. Whether in contact with your secret mountain stronghold, or selling organs on the black market, your plot for world domination is well upon its way. Perhaps the sickest mind on Sealab, there is no telling what devious plot you will be up to next.

What Sealab
2021 Character are You?

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:08 (twenty-two years ago)

haha I like that the code they gave me on the site doesn't even work, I had to edit it twice already anyway to fix syntax errors then the picture don't work. It's kind of fitting.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:09 (twenty-two years ago)

YOU ARE FRYLOCK -- A large, hovering box of french
fries, Frylock is the voice of reason for the
Aqua Teens. He is very smart, owns a computer,
and is often exasperated by his imcompetent
roomates. He does the majority of the crime-
solving for the Hunger Force, and without him,
very little would be accomplished.

the sealab rerun that was on last night where they all talk about what knd of Robots they will become is incredible. It has the part where Dr. Quinn rips open his chest and shows a movie.

― A Nairn (moretap), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

i wish i had Adult Swim but at least i managed to get loads of Space Ghost episodes on video CD thanks to the gift of e-Bay

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh my god the robot one is incredible, it reminded me of my weekend actually, except no one did anything as goddamned cool as rip open their chest and show a movie. "With the strength of FIVE GORILLAS!"

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

That's so weird! Sparks looks AND acts exactly like my Dan. I am more like Captain Murphy, but I haven't taken the quiz yet to have it proven by science.

http://www.osric.com/~jeremy/bizarro.jpg

i think Home Movies is still tops for me, since I love Coach McGuirk, and i generally like any cartoon where all the characters have more than their own share of self-loathing.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 15:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha Bizarro!! UH OH.

This is so the only thing that brings joy to my Sunday nights, for serious.

Actually, you know what the best part of Adult Swim last night was? The Brak News Break. "White Stripes forever cos they ruuuuuule!!!"

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 16:34 (twenty-two years ago)

didn't catch it, unfortunately. i don't have cable.

i should probably change that.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 18:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, but the only thing worth watching is Adult Swim so fuck it.

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 18:46 (twenty-two years ago)

A DVD collection of all this stuff would intrigue me (before anyone complains, I should note that even if I did get cable here I couldn't get this, the new cable company that is the provider at my complex doesn't carry the Cartoon Network -- I've already seen a slew of homemade protest signs all around the various laundry rooms).

Sparks looks AND acts exactly like my Dan

So we are getting protected when he takes over the world, I trust.

YOU ARE CARL -- The Aqua Teen's fat, balding, lazy,
perverted neighbor. He enjoys waxing his car,
drinking beer, looking at pornography, and
hanging out at strip clubs. He doesn't have a
job, a family, or a purpose in life, other than
yelling at Master Shake for being in his pool
without his permission.

I think "adult" meaning violence/swearing/sex was the intention, as in WARNING: ADULT CONTENT

King of the Hill is a family show

― mh, Thursday, 9 November 2017 19:34 (eight years ago)

what the fuck is the pickle show

― flappy bird, Thursday, 9 November 2017 19:34 (eight years ago)

I was nostalgically watching ATHF reruns and asking myself "why did I sour on this show, it's great" and then the episode where Master Shake starts turning black popped up and I said "oh yeah, this bullshit"

― the Hannah Montana of the Korean War (DJP), Thursday, 9 November 2017 19:35 (eight years ago)

xp: obv Rick and Morty but I'm going to go forward in the thread as if it meant Mr. Pickle

― the Hannah Montana of the Korean War (DJP), Thursday, 9 November 2017 19:35 (eight years ago)

sorta all over the place there

How so

To clarify, I'm saying that I find the two most popular adult cartoons funny and irrelevant to pretty much all wider conversations

Oh me neither

― The Suite Life of Jack and Wendy (wins), Thursday, 9 November 2017 19:43 (eight years ago)

im fine with the idea of adult cartoons but can't stand it whenever they cross a line and retreat into "It's only a dumb cartoon!" it's as intellectually cowardly as the Daily Show going "It's only comedy"

― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 9 November 2017 20:13 (eight years ago)

like if you want to reference the real world and drinking and depression and murder, you don't get to play the cartoon card when things get inconvenient

I’m happy to see the Wham City folks more frequently but I feel either they have gotten less ambitious/ weird now that they relocated to LA or Adult Swim is not bankrolling anything as ambitious as the Cry of Mann,etc. and they are making do.

that said I can't believe they're still making new episodes of Robot Chicken in 2020, what the fuck

Watching clips of the more gruesome cartoons like King Star King, Superjail, JJ Villard's Fairy Tales and I've been really inspired by how gruesome and nasty they are (although in King Star King the mostly voicelessness of the sex workers, the bunny grinding a woman's face into the ground and Molestro was testing me a bit*) and I like that blink n' you'll miss it stuff and how often some of it flies in the face of the idea of a very fixed character model and doesn't worry about characters looking daft or ugly.

Was kind of pleased to see that Allison Schulnik and Hellen Jo are fans of Villard. I hadn't seen their work in a while and I think Schulnik is one of the best artists alive today.

*not surprising when I was checking out Villard and all those awesomely gross cartoonists on instagram that Johnny Ryan is friends with them all.
