So I shouldn't feel badly for not having watched in ages. Awesome.

Every now and then, Adult Swim knocks it out of the park (Venture Bros, Robot Chicken), but my god do they have a lot of weird crap on there!

I did stop watching for a while when they lost Futurama reruns

BalugaJoe: I want more Space Ghost.

I just want to see the Space Ghost Christmas Special one more time.

"On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
HI! MY NAME IS BRAK!!"

I'm not going to waste time on the idiot box looking at anything that begins with "The annoying..."

They need more regular shows. Regular shows are awesome.

I'm not up on all the cool youtube stuff, but that sure sounds/looks like the spokes... um... orange... I guess... for the NDDOT?
I don't know or really care if the two are related, but the point is that shiat was stupid, so by logical extension something else featuring a creepy talking orange will indeed suck.
The orange says, "SLOW DOWN."

It has the writer from Pinky and the Brain so it has that going for it.

(Why not just bring back Pinky and Brain?)

Kinda surprised that Steve Oedekerk (Thumb Wars, Thumbtanic, Bat Thumb, etc) wasn't involved with this.
 
2011-11-18 11:16:11 AM
Eh, this isn't so bad. It bridges that gap between ATHF and Tim & Eric.

I like the revamp of the Thundercats.

if i recall correctly, didnt one of the carachters drown in a gian bowl of gravy? i seem to recall the phrase "brakk, throw me a biscuit!"

I just wish they hadn't cancelled "Stroker and Hoop" after only one season. I loved its take on the 70s-80s private eye shows.

lasercannon: I like the revamp of the Thundercats.

I second this. It was a nice surprise.

I just hate the fact that they've been showing live-action movies.

IT'S CALLED CARTOON NETWORK, YOU FARKS!

Do NOT complain about the weird crap. If they didn't have the weird crap, they wouldn't have the venture bros and the robot chicken.

You have to take the variety in order to get those gems.

The same reason they dont bring back lots of other great shows, stupiddream

This is the moment that human civilization peaked. Right there.

This sounds like one of those pieces that require conscience altering to appreciate.

I think I'll go to bed now.
 
2011-11-18 11:29:38 AM
Whew....was afraid for a moment there that they cancelled Venture Brothers....

\yeah I know its technically on Adult Swim

Lol it wasn't a complaint, just an observation. And I do agree, at least Adult Swim gives shows a chance whereas other networks would tell em to fark off.

THIS! On both counts!

I will not watch anything live-action on that network out of principle (with the sole exception of a live-action movie adaptation of a property that was originally animated* or otherwise in cartoon form). If you want to have live action, change the name of the network. There are hundreds of other networks for live action stuff, including dozens owned by your same parent company.

* Still miffed that the first Ben 10 live-action movie (with Ben Tennyson still ten years old) didn't have a certain Easter egg in the credits, given who played Grandpa Max in that movie:

"Chief Stunt Double for Max Tennyson: Colt Seavers"

I dunno, the Brilliant Number One episode was one of the most insanely surreal things I've ever seen. How Space Ghost managed to stay on the air was completely beyond me.

My three year old discovered Annoying Orange on Youtube one day. She doesn't ask to see it anymore, but I must keep her away from Cartoon Network when this thing comes on, just to be safe.
