it's a block of programming on cartoon network

some of it is 'comedy' such as aqua teen hunger force, space ghost coast to coast, the brak show, sealab 2021, etc

some of it (too much) is 'action' which is secrat code words for anime >:

Space Ghost is. Maybe ATHF is too but I didn't really get it, so maybe it's just an American thing.

Some of it is good. You should download a few episodes of Aqua Teen and Space Ghost and figure it out for yourself.

Space Ghost is awesome. The earlier episodes of Sealab are pretty good. The Venture Brothers is superb, although there's only one season. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is pretty hit-or-miss sometimes. Robot Chicken sucks.

Yeah, I wanted to like Robot Chicken, but there's usually just one decent joke in an entire episode.

I like Robot Chicken. :( There's some lame jokes but I still laugh at most of it.

Adult Swim was really good like three years ago so I suggest going back in time but other than that :(

I haven't watched Adult Swim in a year probably. I never used to miss it but that was back when it still had the old people. :(

it's not like I'm watching Inuyasha :<

and you know what? if my TV is clocking ratings for Harvey Birdman, I'm making sure Stephen Colbert has work.
