What happened? Now all they have is Rick and Morty. That's it. They used to be the number one network for late night comedy. Now?

Hudson Sullivan
They dont show cool anime anymore
Wyatt Cook
it became too risky to be weird. eric andre is still pretty good if that's still going but other than that, world peace was probably the last truly special thing to air. lazzo is also gone now. so it's over.
Luke Hernandez
>lazzo is also gone now.
good
he only ever did bad things and not a single good one for adult swim
Asher Davis
So whats theyre plan then? Theyre owned by WB. You cant tell me they dont have resources to reformat to the new 20-30 year old male demographic they once dominated.
Logan White
Name any notable ones.
Jaxson Clark
huh
of course they'll still be around but the original spirit of AS is dead
Nathan Wood
Watching adult swim past your time. It's not for us anymore, user.
Julian Lee
that demographic doesn't watch TV
Owen Powell
Theyre making the same mistake literally every other media group has, namely chasing the broadest, lowest common denominator market rather than identifying a niche and aiming for that.
Carter Martinez
So they should move to any number of streaming services and begin selling IP's to them. Maybe create new IPs for them as well. Slap that adult swim logo on their features and boom. They're back on the railroad tracks.
Luke Ramirez
Is this an undercover Smiling Friends thread?
This will be the show that saves [adult swim].
Jeremiah White
Tf is that? Sounds like Tim and Eric autism. Was never my forte.
Nolan Jones
Its good by 2010s standards but now it's just tame and passe. I've seen that show a hundred times.
Joseph Gutierrez

Zach Hadel's magnum opus.
Mike Stolska's breakout roll into the big time.
Adrian Peterson
Christopher Sullivan
LMFAO Wow. That actually made me vocally laugh a couple times. Kinda has that ATHF dark comedy vibe. Jesus why is no one else watching this? I need to check it out.
Easton Foster
They have Toonami every Saturday. Maybe Japan just doesn't make cool Shonen shit anymore
Jace Nguyen
They show the same bullshit thought. Naruto, DBZ, Bleach, AoT, and Gundam. Rinse and repeat. As if weebs havent already seen that shit a million times.
Charles Walker
The video description has a link to the full pilot. I'm confident that they're going to pick it up for a full show.
If you like it, check out stuff by Michael Cusack, he made that Bushworld Adventures thing on adult swim everyone loved, and Psychicpebbles on YouTube has made some funny animations too. They voiced the Pink Character and the Yellow Character, respectively.
If you like Psychicpebbles stuff, check him out on the Sleepycast podcast, he's the nasally guy so you can't miss him. He's also on OneyPlays sometimes. I usually hate let's player stuff but oneyplays can be pretty good, especially when he's on.
Levi Adams
I will, user! Totally. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Easton Myers
Bit of a lull rn, except for JP Talks, and Beef House (which looks pretty bad)
They've of course got their staples, like T&E, Robot Chicken, Venture Bros. R&M is kind of entering that "staple" territory anyway.
Excited for Uzumaki, Shivering Truth S2, Eric Andre S5, and hopefully Smiling Friends this year tho
And regardless, Adult Swim continues to be the single-best investor in new animators and talents though, and have had some pretty great shorts and one-offs over the past few years
Dylan Gutierrez
Whats JP talks and beefhouse? I tend to be timid about watching their live action stuff. I mean loiter squad and Sam Hyde were alright. But Tim and Eric I can only imagine you need to be stoned out of your mind to enjoy.
Hudson Russell
Is Lazzo gone now for reals?
Does that mean ATHF can come back and just... fucking air indefinitely?
Lucas Cruz
I just miss shit like boondocks and aquateen. Those were fucking amazing.
I wonder, why dont they invest in original films as well? They do live action stuff. They totally could break into the indie comedy film section as well since ifc tends to drop the ball with comedy movies.
Leo Rogers
I also really like his Trump impression. It's the only one that's actually funny and one of the few that isn't actually all that political.

Jose Sanchez
Joe Perra Talks to You. It's pretty comfy.
Beefhouse is the newest Tim and Eric show.
Brayden Gutierrez
Actually is kinda based. Middle of the road pc wise, which is good since snl makes him out to be a complete jackass. You think adult swim is aware of Yas Forums and all of the sorta undercover anti-shw types out there that are ignored by hollywood libs in their media? Could we... dare I say... finally get a based show?
Idk. They shitcanned Hyde after his I love jews stunt. Did he think he was invincible or is he just autistic?
David Walker
I really want this too get picked up ant joke changed my life
Jaxson Brown
>They do live action stuff. They totally could break into the indie comedy film section as well since ifc tends to drop the ball with comedy movies.
Yeah I wonder
Animation seems more their wheelhouse/area of expertise, and I think shows, or miniseries fit better into what they offer: a channel. Movies would be different distribution, different financing, etc. The whole nine yards
Carter Kelly
So ignore beefhouse and check out Joe Perra. Gotcha.
Juan Gonzalez
Again, owned by WB. Its not an impossible venture. Especially if WB quits fucking around and just either partners with a well known service or just brings their DC streaming service under an entire WB umbrella. But who am I? Someone whos looking for an internship this summer that might try applying to one of their programs to meet people and hopefully shoot ideas around? Oh yeah.
Jacob Gonzalez
They should just make funny stoner cartoons for their original audience who are only like 30 instead of all this awful sjw zoomer hipster garbage
Brandon Wright
Zoomers arent sjws. Only millenials. Once zoomers all start getting into their 20s we're going to see a return to form as far as comedy of that matter goes.
Parker Brown
It really is going to come full circle, isnt it? The older gen (millenials) will be the anal-retentive "dont say obscene things" gen and zoomers will of course rebel. Maybe we havent lost hope.
