Best thing about adult swim are the little messages they broadcast during the commercials.
I forgot to mention "The Boondocks" awesome show.

I'm gonna have to say that I am jealous also... ATHF is the shit... and then the fact that Adult Swim picked up Futurama just deserves mad respect right there.
Also, don't forget My Gym Partner Is A Monkey during the non-adult hours on CN

_salisae_, That sounds like a dream job.
The Boondocks is easily one of the funniest shows on tv.
- foreverwhatever0
awesome! how did you get that job?
- _salisae_0
thanks guys! i am kind of shell shocked really b/c they somehow found me. complete luck.
here's a hint:
if you have any animation shorts ideas get them together as their may possibly be a venue for you to show.
i told him in the interview .. stopped all conversation during my book showing and said .. listen. i don't watch tv. i hope that isn't a problem. which would normally be one of those 'way to go, shari. why must you always be so forthright? never tell the truth! keep your cards close!! damnit you're an idiot.' but he didn't care!
while we were discussing my offer i asked what dexter's laboratory was and he just kind of blankly stared at me. i must catch up by next monday!
- cancer-man0
Dexter is awesome, I don't think they air it anymore or do they? But it was never an adult swim show.

HOLY F!!!! Great job _salisae_!!!!
I'm so jealous. Their inbetween commercial messages are great.

Holy shit shari.
What the hell are you doing out living life while cartoons are on 24 hours a day?!?
Quick rundown:
Master Shake (ATHF [Aqua Teen Hunger Force]), is the greatest TV Character of all-time. Hands down. In fact I am sure he is actually real.
Meatwad (ATHF [see above]), has the coolest voice and I do a mean impression of him to the point I can finally just talk in normal conversations like him as opposed to just doing catch lines.
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATH…Boondocks, fucking g-ddamn hilarious. It's an adapation from the comic strip which you may be familiar with.
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo…Harvey Birdman, FUCKING HIGHLARIOUS! It's a show about Harvey Birdman (old Hanna Barbara character) and how he represents a cast of old Hanna Barbara Characters in court with updated premises to die laughing at.
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Har…Sealab 2021, update from Sealab 2020 - except again, with adult themes and absolute fucking hilarity. Kind of went downhill after Harry Goz (Murph) died, however, the earlier episodes are absolute classics (BIZARRO!!!).
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea…Venture Brothers, this show fucking rocks as well as almost everything on Adult Swim does. Just awesome.

As you can tell (or ... probably not), I watch practically the entire Sunday Nite Comedy Lineup.They have a Saturday Lineup wihich is mostly anime which I imagine is good... heh.
Adult Swim starts at 11PM every nite, I suggest throwing on Cartoon Network and kicking back.
Also ... they fanbase is something fierce - and just cursory glancing at the commercials will show you why.
The bumps are classic.
Hope this wasn't post wasn't too jumbled.

thanks mayo!
how is it going with your recent change in job status? if you need any advice at all .. i'm not an expect by any means but i've learned a few tricks these past couple of months .. so definitely write me!

I forgot to mention Sealab, thanks for pointing that out flavorful.
My life revolves around adult swim, I am so happy for you shari. This has made my day.
- _salisae_0
no that is great flavorful! i don't have cable :(
but maybe i can be old fashioned and gather around someone in the neighborhood's tv during showtime.
