  • Adult Swim

    Yes, I'm back. What do you mean, you didn't notice I'd left? Humph. Anyway, it wasn't my fault, my computer got busted and since poly lacks a "log out" feature I wasn't comfortable using the public computers at college. But I'm home now, which means you get to bask in my company again. You lucky buggers.

    While computerless at a college, I naturally grew extremely bored and turned to TV for amusement. Most of it's too tepid to be enjoyable, but my enthusiasm for the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim program did increase dramatically.

    Two questions. Firse, who else here loves AS? And, secondly, is it just me or does "Tom goes to the Mayor" really, really suck? It's not at all funny to me, it's just depressing. I wind up hitting the mute button whenever the ads come on, it's so horrible.

    Robot Chicken, otoh, is freakin' awesome.

        I think Poly does have a log out feature anyway...

          ATHF!

          Can't stand TGttM.

          I'm probably the only one, but I actually like Super Milk Chan. God that show is demented. It's made to watch while stoned or tripping, I'm sure. "YOU DUMBASS!"

          Seen most of the Inu-Yashas, love Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Big O, GitS: SAC, and Full Metal Alchemist.

            I haven't the faintest idea what you're on about. I suspect this is some kind of variation on Mornington Crescent.

              I really hate Super Milk Chan. I want to kill it with an ax.

              The Venture Brothers is a great show. Reminds me of a few Johnny Quest spoofs Cartoon Network dared to create back in the day.

              ATHF is a fave, as well as Bepop.

              I hate Tom Goes to the Mayor.

                  ATHF is easily the best, followed by Sealab, then the Venture Brothers, and finally Harvey Birdman. I don't care for the others. The first Tom Goes to the Mayor episode was ok. I hate anime.

                    Am I the only one who liked Witch Hunter Robin?

                    Some of the Super Milk Chan's are good, but some others are really annoying.

                      Some SMC's are good but others aren't? Dude, they all have the exact same plot! Only the details are changed.

                        The early ones were different in some ways.

                          If it isn't Futurama and Family Guy, I don't watch Adult Swim.
