Adult Swim OPO

Pete from 30 Rock was one of the creative drivers behind Moral Orel!

Anybody out there have the Saul Of The Molemen episode featuring Thomas Jefferson? I need to see that again.

it's all about Furikuri

Whoa, so FLCL is broadcasting in HD right now! Is this a new remaster/transfer or something?

If Mighty Boosh counts, it's my favorite at the moment since I just found out about this show a few weeks ago and they now only play it on Fridays. However, I'm pretty sure Delocated will own this as soon as Season 2 takes over.

hi-def FLCL must be INSANE

So is anybody watching Mary Shelley's Frankenhole, the new thing from Moral Orel's Dino Stamatopolous? It trades in the Art Clokey claymation style for an amazing Rankin-Bass Mad Monster Party look, but more importantly it's just really fucking funny.

i have all of them saved on my dvr so im happy 2 hear that

i got big into morel orel a few months ago

I never knew what was missing from my life until today, when I found out it was Scott Adsit as a dick-obsessed Thomas Jefferson with the voice of Daffy Duck. It was a very specific niche but it has been filled and I can die happy.

I'll never understand why Adult Swim never finished releasing Moral Orel on DVD- sometimes I think it's the best thing they've ever done, even more so than Venture Bros.

I thought Adult Swim had some kind of conflict with Starburnstopolous and that was the reason there was no Morel Orel dvd, but apparently not if they're airing his new show.

easiest assumption is that the Vol 1 DVD set sold so badly even AS couldn't justify putting out the other two

well there was that comicon (?) press conf as an xtra on vol. 1 where dino is a total drunken ass the entire time..

which i tbrr found funny

1st time seeing any of season 2 of orel -- mt goats!!!

metalocalypse is excellent this season imo

it's basically been non-stop good since about halfway through season 1

I've finally gotten over my kneejerk hatred of seeing non-animated stuff on Cartoon Network to enjoy Children's Hospital, but Delocated is fucking garbage.

The only thing I ever found funny on Delocated was the pissy girlfriend and her tortilla hat business.

Childrens Hospital is amazing tho

anyone who isn't watching Delocated is missing out

Eh not really

It's not as bad as several other AS shows but it isn't essential viewing.

the original one-off pilot turned me off years ago, was shocked to realize later it had been going on for several seasons

can't believe they went ahead with that and not Korgoth of Barbaria

I don't watch any other AS shows but i think Delocated is genuinely one of the most imaginative and daring comedies out there at the moment. The Face/Off episode from last season was just insane. Can't think of any thing else on the air right now that would even attempt that

just watched the face/off episode, cuz i've only seen the show a couple time and why not. dgi.

think my favorite thing that's ever been on AS still = the first 2 or 3 seasons of ATHF. then venture bros and metalocalypse. that's about it.

some of this stuff looks promising:

also i second praising delocated which is sometimes genius and reminds me a lot of jon benjamin show

Coffin Dodgers, a half-hour animated series from the creators of Drawn Together about a rowdy bunch of retirement home residents

we may have to do over the 'worst adult swim show' poll for this

yeah, that one does not look good.

xxpost

Not surprising, as Glaser and Benjamin have done a lot of stuff together.

Why would they let the creators of Drawn Together do anything that wasn't a profuse apology for the existence of Drawn Together?

i just learned from the av club comments section and wiki that apparently there's a fourth season of boondocks in the works. had no idea!

wait what?

they dropped the ball on the voices on the boondocks cartoon so hard i couldn't even watch more than one episode of it, regina king wtf

i was pretty annoyed at her voice at first, too, but i eventually got used to it

also the use of samuel l. jackson kinda makes up for everything

running above the influence commercials on adult swim: good targeting, or closing the stable door after the pothead has blown?

sad this bump wasnt about the eric andre show

is loiter squad funny?

Rarely?

Eric Andre show on the other hand is awesome.

Eric Andre show is next level. His character on Apt 23 is amusing but inconsequential enough that I was not prepared for how all-out his show is.

saw 2 eps on demand. it's funny. very similar to comedy bang bang, i thought, and then googled both and found that the nyt agrees:

I like Eric Andre except for the Punk'd-es

Punk'd-esque bits, which are thankfully very brief.

agreed, although I liked the Tea Party one

can't help but feel like upcoming rock'a'roni metal camp ep of metalacolypse might have a rockso appearance

re: the Punk'd bits, I liked "Touch a Stranger's Hand Day"

I thought that was the creepiest one! He's, like, seriously violating these people's personal space! I liked the trashcan "congratulations" one, where the guy gets in his face and is totally adrenaline-rushing, going "are you trying to give my girl a heart attack?!?"

My favorite use of that type of bit, though, is probably the "Cash Stall" bit in "Jon Benjamin Has a Van." Still cracks me up.

The reason I liked it was because it was the creepiest one!

Hannibal's reactions during the goofy headlines were also amazing

eagleheart this week weirdly an elaborate parody of the ET ride in Universal Studios???

RIP Delocated. Last episode airs March 7.
