Well, Adult Swim's got a whole bunch of new crap shows premeiering soon, though I can't remember the name of one they showed a commercial for (which looked really stupid) and the other one they previewed (which was somewhat funny) they didn't bother telling us the name of. I'm not optimistic personally, seems for every good new show (Moral Orel, Venture Brothers) they make, there's boatloads of shitty ones (Minoriteam, Tom Goes to the Mayor, 12oz Mouse, Squidbillies for godssakes!)

I really enjoy Venture Brothers, if that gets canned I'm going to be bummed.

I also want new Aqua Teen! NOW!!!
As a side note, I'm looking forward to the movie whenever the hell they decide to finish it.
Also, I'm very pissed that they apparently cancelled Perfect Hair Forever but shit like 12 oz. Mouse and Squidbillies is still being made.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Perfect Hair Forever, that sucks too (the only thing about it that doesn't suck is that MF Doom wrote a song about it for Dangerdoom, but that's just cause MF Doom is awesome.) I haven't heard anything on new Aqua Teens, though they did play a bump last night saying there are new Harvey Birdman episodes coming in summer (woo-hoo!) I wanna know where volume 2 of the Harvey Birdman DVDs is. There's also new Venture Brothers starting soon, which is super neat-o! Go Team Venture!

Perfect Hair Forever annoyed me. I like 12 Oz. Mouse, though. I'm usually not into that kind of "Look at us, we're doing a whacky show on a miniscule budge when we can afford a much larger budget!" crap, but I find 12 Oz. Mouse amusing.
The first episode of Squidbillies was good, the rest of it has been pretty crappy.
And where'd Sealab go?

Sealab was cancelled. The death of Harry Goz (Captain Murphy) kinda killed the show. I didn't mind Tornado Shanks, but Murph was better.
I miss The Brak Show. Some of the episodes were terrible, but every single one was better than Tom Goes To The Mayor.
And Space Ghost: Coast To Coast needs new episodes too. Supposedly the creators are sick of doing it, but it's still Williams Street's best show. And now it's not even on the Adult Swim lineup! Fucking Adult Swim wouldn't even *exist* without Space Ghost.

Just saw a bump saying there's new Aqua Teens coming in September. Sweet nectar!

September? Bullshit.
They ran 3 new episodes back in the fall, and before that it had been 13 months since new ATHF. Lousy bastards.
The show is made on the cheap with limited animation, so the only explanation is that they're already running out ideas for episodes. If I have to wait until September, the episodes I get better be far beyond awesome.

Yeah, it sucks. I can only imagine the drugs that fueled their minds through the first few dozen episodes have finally started to wear off.
Also, one of the shows they've previewing tonight and last night, Death Clock Metalocolpyse, looks like it could be pretty funny. It's about a death metal band it appears.

If I recall, the ATHF people are also responsible for 12 oz. Mouse, so maybe they've made that their top priority...cocaine is a Hell of a drug.

If so, that's sad because I hate 12 oz Mouse. Even more so because I know they can get decent artists! If you don't care enough to draw your cartoon well, why should I care enough to watch it?

I'm sure at least some of you know by now that Saved by the Bell is airing on Adult Swim. Personally, I'm not a fan of this decision, but that's mainly because I'm not much of a fan of SBTB these days.
What does everyone else think?

I think it's weird. Adult Swim is an animation block geared towards an 18+ audience whereas Saved By The Bell is a live action show for kids. Also, both Saved By The Bell and Saved By The Bell: The College Years air on TBS every weekday.
Plus, the only Saved By The Bell episode that I'd want to see anymore is the one where Jessie takes the pep pills to stay awake.

That's probably one they will show. I watched part of the episode last night and then I thought "Wait, I'm watching Saved by the Bell" and shut it off.
