    I nearly busted my gut when they made a video game out of Sealab being played by Shake and Meatwad.

    Changes coming to Adult Swim, from http://www.jazzmess.com/

    (some opinion by the author at the end)


    10/22/02 -- Changes for Adult Swim US - Come January, Adult Swim will expand to 5 days a week. According to Toonzone, Cartoon Network will drop the Saturday edition of the block and instead run from Sunday to Thursday, once again mixing the action and comedy sides of the block:

    "Comedy programming will run from 11:00 pm to midnight on Mondays to Thursdays, with the newly acquired Futurama and the critically acclaimed Home Movies running at 11:00 pm and 11:30 pm respectively. Action shows will run in the midnight hour, rotating shows such as Inu-Yasha and Cowboy Bebop."

    The Sunday block will remain similar to it's current state. My personal thoughts on this change: I like the fact that the different sides of the block are mixed again. To a certain degree, putting "action" and "comedy" on different nights felt as though they were just trying to segregate the anime from the other animation. What this doesn't leave much room for, in my opinion, are "accidents." By which I mean, that Space Ghost fan who thinks that anime is crap accidentally leaving the television on after SG and discovering the greatness that is Cowboy Bebop. Or the other side of the issue, the anime fan who's waiting for CB turning to Cartoon Network a little early and accidentally catching the last ten minutes of Home Movies and realizing that yes, in fact, it's damn funny. Another possible (though not perhaps probable) effect of this change is that animation (Japanese or otherwise) that doesn't quite fit the "action" or "comedy" mold might get a chance to be shown on the block. Pure speculation, of course, and most likely William's Street has nothing at all in mind just now. Nevertheless, it's at least a possibility now, something it wasn't before. Thanks to Skittle2021 for pointing out Toonzone's article

    Has anyone seen the TV listings for Adult Swim for tonight? Space Ghost and Brak from 11-12, and all the good stuff after that.

    Dammit.
