Is AS still desperate enough?

Okay, we all know the piece-o-crap "Game Over" ain't gonna last to another episode order on UPN...

...sooo...is Adult Swim desperate enough for six weeks of airing repeats of this show if it does pick it up? I really hope not, but I thought we could use discussion on the possibilities. (and don't say they can't go that low, because as bad as this show is, think Oblongs)...

Why do people still bash Oblongs? That was a good book and an even better show.

Most people tend to think of it as a good book and a bland, conventional show with little truly inspired writing that become tired quickly and really succeeded on the basis of Will Ferrel's presence.

I don't know about the ratings, but the quality of "Game Over" has risen greatly the last two episodes. The pilot was awful, but I'm glad I kept up with it. The School Play/Ransom Transom episode was terrific.

I recently heard about "Game Over", is it like a reboot wanna be or something? I don't know that much about it.

I think that at this point, if the Adult Swim people don't like it and if it doesn't develop a huge cult following, they won't pick it up (assuming it gets cancelled from UPN). They're at the point where they have to rotate shows in their schedule, especially once they get those 4 or so new shows they mentioned (the majority of which will probably be half-hour, I'm guessing). So I don't think they'd do it just out of desperation.

I find game-over to be un-funny

mainly because of Turbo

second because they don't know howto use videogame humour

Third because I know how to make it much better

It was done much better a while ago. The show was called "Reboot."

[Stewie]

Man, Reboot was awesome.

Since when is Adult Swim desperate?

Besides with the current batch of originals and incoming newbies they don't need to pick up cast off shows. At least not out of desperation.
