>once they lose Family Guy?
hypothetical or inevitable?
Rick and Morty or rely on American Dad more
More Rick and Morty reruns
It'll improve noticeably. They could replace it with thirty minutes of a dog licking its nuts and it would be more watchable than Family Guy.
I can see them going down 3 different routes.
>Start the block a few hours later and air more original programming
>Make anime a part of the weekday schedule again
>Get the rights to as many short-lived adult cartoons from the 90s-early 2000s as possible,
They're losing the rights next year
They don't need Family Guy and have a massive library.
Adult Swim is upfront about liking King of the Hill and Squid Billies and Bobs Burgers.
They like Seth MacFarlane more than Seth Green and see him as a bootlicker
A massive library of fucking dog shit
Any of those would be better than current AS.
I just hope they do more Primal and Ballmasterz.
they rerun the most popular common core shows during normie hours, then flip to their original programs latter. If they lose Family Guy like they lost Futurama, they still will fall back on their other shit like Cleavland, American Dad, KotH, etc.
More Bob's Burgers reruns until they lose than a few years later
More American Dad reruns
More Rick and Morty reruns
Maybe bump up the # of Robot Chicken, Eric Andre, other popular show reruns as well
Potentially try to fill more time with new original content, but largely they'll be targeting the streaming front for that. Or if they do it will be probably a lot of their streaming shows airing on tv with a few live action or cartoon premieres.
Potentially target the nostalgia Gen X/millennial crowd with reruns of classic shows in a certain block (a la Nick Rewind or whatever)
They lost Cleveland and KotH in 2017, and they'll lose Bob's Burgers a few years after Family Guy (I think 2023).
So they won't have shit beyond American Dad in terms of syndicated shows in a few years
Any of these would be fine. I would especially like to see them give weekday anime a shot again
We are probably going to get this though
thanks for telling me, i had no idea. What are the odds they reupp Bob's Burgers or another show's contract?
I think they will lose the 8PM hour for sure.
Otherwise probably doubling down on sure-fire normie shows in around 9 to midnight or 12:30 and then maybe rerunning random shit they own the rights to after that
They've already lost Bob's Burgers for good. At this point the only thing they would be able syndicate is probably something they've gotten before that is cheap as fuck (ie. Mission Hill, Oblongs, Clerks, God the Devil and Bob, PJs, etc.)
Almost zero, I really don't think Disney would be willing to negotiate
What was that ONE edit?
>I would especially like to see them give weekday anime a shot again
No way this will happen. Especially if they want to keep the husk that is Toonami afloat.
Unless they're just rerunning cheap shit or stuff they already own like Ghost in the Shell SAC, Big O, Bebop, FLCL, Samurai Jack. But even then it's a longshot
It was 2
In the second episode, "Haruko's "Shit!" muted from the dialogue just before she mounts her Vespa and departs the battle area." animenewsnetwork.com
In episode 6, "Mosaic over Kamon's genitals digitally enlarged during manga sequence." animenewsnetwork.com
Still nothing compared with what they did to KLK

I sure hope they don't quadruple down on Rick&Morty when family guy leaves.
within a few years they're going to mostly pivot to streaming only because with or without Family Guy reruns, cable has been dying for about 5 years. Losing FG just means they wouldn't be able to prolong the inevitable for an additional year or two
more like Newgrounds Style Swim lol
>for free
that'll be one Cox cable subscription, install fee + commercials please.
Based.
So I've been watching Tigtone and Ballmasterz latley, they're both fucking great. I'd say [as] should do more original shows, but I'm sure timeslot and demograph isn't going to make it that lucrative.
Xavier Renegade Angel is my favorite animated show of all time, so when I heard about The Shivering Truth I shat myself. I need to get around to watching that.
Ballmasterz and XRA are kino. Will check out Tigtone on the basis of your taste
I'd say you're in for a good time. has some crazy situations and while the wordplay certainly isn't on the level of pffr, it's still pretty damn funny, plus there's something really gorgeous about the artstyle once you get past how jarring the mo-cap faces are. Check it out.

Here's to Adult Swim finally airing Dilbert.
Dilbert's not the worst show out there. It certainly impressed me when I first watched, at least at first. Maybe it's schtick gets old quick, but it's not shite.
Adult Swim is still around?
Family Guy is still around?
lmao how old are you
>The Shivering Truth
Just watched the pilot, this is amazing.
>Family Guy is still around?
Yes,You can't kill Family Guy.
Simpsons tried to kill Family Guy
But they failed, as they were stricken down to jumping the shark
we're not gonna see more Bob's Burgers before it leaves, since I'm pretty sure they're already airing the maximum number of episodes they can per week of it
there's only one show that can save them now

>bobobo bo bobobo bo bobobobo bobo bo bobobo bobo bobobo bobobobobo bo bobobo
>They air Bobobo
>Toonami ratings skyrocket
>AS enters a new era of popularity
They should actually air more comedy anime to pad the block
Just air nothing but Comedy/gag anime on Toonami.
never understood the hate adult swim had for anime t.bh
They're losing all the Fox shows except AD
Rick and Morty is failing and they're losing the rights to their fox stuff. If they were smart they'd try and go for one more big animated series and if that fails, they'd double down on streaming.
pretty sure most of it was them riling up the fanbase just for the hell of it
if they hated anime so much they wouldn't have consistently aired it for 19 years, at one point 6 days a week. especially when the ratings for it have been historically fairly week
messing with the fans is one thing but the messed up scheduling tells a different story. Plus if the shit they played on Sunday was more popular they would've aired more often
>the messed up scheduling tells a different story.
It wasn't just anime dude. It was a lot of stuff. Home Movies aired a season premiere in the dead of night, and didn't air the rest for 5 months. Aqua Teen would sometimes burn off two new episodes in one night.
I don't think they really *hated* anime. I think they struggled to find it a solid audience, unlike the FOX stuff. Hence the constant re-scheduling trying to make certain shows work (or in some cases pushing them later at night if it was clear it was a lost cause)...
>Plus if the shit they played on Sunday was more popular they would've aired more often
????
>Rick and Morty is failing.
About time.
I hear they'll be running hour blocks of Lazor Wolf
I don't think anyone knows that show exists.
So long as it includes Ghost Stories dub.
Code Geass is my primary example. They knew it got good ratings but they still moved it to 4 am (central) essentially trying to kill the show
Is KLK the show Toonami censored the most? even Tenchi Muyo with all the nudity only got blurred out nipples during the April fools airing.
