C&C - Anything Else/Cards [3/26 - 3/31]

[The Landstander]

For discussion of anything else.

PS for discussion of cards.

[G1Ravage]

Why is AS still playing that crappy tape of Bebop episode 26? I thought they had fixed that long ago.

Or did they come back to this tape because they went and flucked up the good one by removing the credits?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

first week of AS is its own network! less kidz bop more bad ads :( plus Milk Chan season 2? nooo ;)

new anime announcements next week? we'll see!

hmm, I wonder else they could out in addition to what they've already lined up. Sucks that they are separating those announcements from the upfront though.

[Nin-Nin69]

They're advertizing the Animation Show? Since when would that or Spike and Mike get TV pimping?

Also does this mean Rejected in the future?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

heres your 49th week or ratings


Sunday, March 20th

Family Guy #2 - 889,000
Chicken - 857,000
Sealab - 673,000

wow and ow :( new Sealab high again also a new Chicken high. AS just keeps going up!

[bluedeucedodge]

A new Sealab high again huh? Well, that just throws another log onto the fire for me. I read the live journal, but I am still hoping that they are just delaying the release of new ones till next year. That is what I am HOPING. It may be a long shot, but it is still a shot. RC is still getting great ratings as usual.

[Artimus Gigan]

I liked that "Make your own Bling" sticker commerical

really when a soccer mom over 40 says she likes bling...yiou know it's all downhill

[Demonic Raven]

Woah. Nice going. Let's hope it goes higher. C'mon, millions! :p

[KuwabaraTheMan]

I'm guessing March Madness on this one. It should get back up in a couple of weeks.

[bluedeucedodge]

I might be a redneck..............because I watched Foxworthy. Damn, Saturday takes another big hit. It'll bounce back though.

[Fresh V]

Man, Saturday got screwed. At least all Sunday ratings went up.

[Demonic Raven]

At least Saturday had some good excuses. At least...:sweat:

[Rabi~en~Rose]

At least Saturday had some good excuses. At least...:sweat:

why would Sunday need excuses that was its highest rated week yet :confused:

He said Saturday.

[Rabi~en~Rose]

He said Saturday.

yeah but he said at least saturday implying sunday needed and didnt have a good excuse or maybe I just took it the wrong way :sweat:

it will be interesting to see post-sandwich sundays ratings

[Demonic Raven]

I wasn't implying anything about Sunday. Eh..sorry if it wasn't clear.

Jiminy! Those Sunday ratings are excellent! So if Family Guy #2 gets THAT high of ratings, I'm wondering how Family Guy #1 has been doing and how it will do when the meal becomes "Open Robot Chicken Sandwich". Robot Chicken has proven that it is a high rating getter without the opening Family Guy (it got number 1 twice!) Will it continue it's high streak?

Also many questions involving Tom, ATHF, and Sealab that I'll just let get answered in two weeks. You know it's weird Sealab is getting higher ratings considering it's coming to an end soon (although unlike Brak we're finding out about this before the last episode.) If Tom doesn't improve it's ratings it might be next (I sure hope not though.) Since Robot is a sure fire hit that's likely to continue on Adult Swim for quite someitme, I wonder what the next big 15 minute show will be.

So since Kim and whoever are visiting Japan this week, I wonder if they're going to acquire a new title(s?) for AS. Unless my memory is wrong, I think at least 4 new anime series were coming to AS this year and 3 have been announced (Samurai Champloo, Paranoia Agent, sCRYed), is one more on the way? (Super Milk Chan Season 2? Reign the Conqueror Unlimited? :eek: )

[Karl Olson]

Well, if they buy something via that fair, it's probably something just-entering/still-in production if not in preproduction, so it's something that wouldn't turn up for a while (2006-7 maybe.) Additionally, a show bought there is probably something they've got lock, stock and barrel: distro, merch and broadcast rights. Even if they are just scouting series they hope a favorable distributor aquires, it's about long term planning, not anything they'll use with in the year unless they are looking to simulcast something (which would be awesome.)

[Rabi~en~Rose]

the Birdman dvd commercial isn't bad and better then the annoying Sealab one but is the poor looking video quality intentional :confused:

[Discloner]

the Birdman dvd commercial isn't bad and better then the annoying Sealab one but is the poor looking video quality intentional :confused:I think its one of the few entries of their "Do our work for us contest" where people sent in Birdman DVD promos they made for air.

So yes...the bad quality was likely intentional.

oh! I wondered what did become of that contest! not bad for a fanmade commercial :) the Space Ghost 3 one just aired and its not so bad either

[bluedeucedodge]

Dang, I missed both of them. I'll catch them on the rebound.

[tucsoncoyote]

Okay now what's this?

They Greenlighted Venture brothers Season 2?:eek: (Monday's Cards)

does this mean 13 NEW wacky episodes?

Oh good grief! Bigger Boobytraps!:D

If this is true Let's aall do the Brock Sampson Dance of Killing and Love!

Okay now I am getting weird..

GO TEAM VENTURE!

:coyote:

first weekday as their own network not bad :)


btw a second Birdman dvd commercial has aired this time taking place in bathroom :confused:

[livingfruitvirus]

That ATTENTION IDIOTS card was hillarious.

[Matt Hazuda]

That ATTENTION IDIOTS card was hillarious.I saw that one on truesday and had a good chuckle. I can't believe people are getting so upset over an hour that they wouldn't watch to begin with no matter waht was on.


BTW, what is AS' abbreviation for the ratings? Did it get SWIM or something else?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

time is running down! will AS april fools us or stick to their word and do absolutely nothing tonight? tune in at 12 to find out :eek: since its premiere rerun night I'm leaning on the "they're not gonna do anything" side

I'm a little concerned about that. I didn't watch Fullmetal or GItS on Saturday, plus I have to tape it for my brother.

[bluedeucedodge]

I missed the beginning of Family Guy, but I haven't noticed anything thus far. I bet they start the trickery at 12, if they even do anything at all. That would be the ultimate trick. Everyone is expecting trickery, so if they don't do anything, that would be just as bad as doing something.

[livingfruitvirus]

they start the trickery at 12.

[delariean]

Are we starting a new thread for this?

[Rabi~en~Rose]

Squidbillies?!

[G1Ravage]

I KNEW IT!!

[bluedeucedodge]

Hell yeah!!!! We need a C&C for this!!!!!

[Discloner]

TZites, Rev your engines. I'm prepared to sit back and watch you guys rant, laughing the night away. :D

[Juu-kuchi]

Squidbillies?! That was surprising.

[NickWhiz1]

Well, this certainly came out of left field.

[Perfect Cell]

April Fools joke from Adult Swim :) . I just wish Squidbillies was a joke... :mad:

[AndrewSP]

Wow...Squidbillies...just...wow...:confused: :eek: (I hope Robot Chicken is still rerun tonight, i need to record it for my sister :sad: )

[Matthew Williams]

Squidbillies comments go here, folks:

[Happy]

I hope that that episode was a joke.

[G1Ravage]

There better be more jokes.

[G1Ravage]

Yes! Again!!!

[Rabi~en~Rose]

huh? Anime Talk Show is getting an encore. but Anime Talk Show SUCKED :(

[NickWhiz1]

Anime Talk Show!!!!!

[bluedeucedodge]

God I hope they don't show PHF tonight. Maybe some other shows that they have instore will be shown.

[G1Ravage]

And now...

...Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

[Rabi~en~Rose]

ew FMA, poor cg, and no mustaches. tv off!

[Juu-kuchi]

That talk show was good until the squid started killing everybody else.

[G1Ravage]

I better see a mustache soon.

[Demonic Raven]

Aw. I wanted mustach'd FMA. :(

[TnAdct1]

ew FMA, poor cg, and no mustaches. tv off! I myself was kinda hoping that there'd be an April Fools joke in which the anime titles would air with the original Japanese dialogue instead of the English track. Oh well.

[Juu-kuchi]

My last hope is that they disco the guns in GitS.

[AndrewSP]

So i guess my only chance to record Robot Chicken was on Sunday, huh? Crap, and it was a good episode too.
And no anime gags. Maybe they were afraid of some kind of backlash from the action fans like what happened last year with the mustaches.

[livingfruitvirus]

I myself was kinda hoping that there'd be an April Fools joke in which the anime titles would air with the original Japanese dialogue instead of the English track. Oh well.Sorry. Christmas isn't for 9 months.

[Aquadementia]

I wanted to catch Sealab, which I missed completely and RC which I missed part of but thought was better then usual.

I should have expected something screwy, but now that it's April first, I'm wishing it was screwier, like last year.
Those mustaches literally had me ROTFL! last year.

[livingfruitvirus]

Sorry guys. The antics aren't over yet.

[bluedeucedodge]

I just knew it. Perfect Hair Forever with FACIAL HAIR!!!! They didn't re-run Squidbillies. They Ran PHF with mustaches and beards.

[zmanjz]

Perfect Hair Forever is freakin awesome....

(Actually, I just like anything involving cute ninja girls with pinkish hair, swords, and thongs.)

[Sandoz]

The cloud has a mustache. Oh, the wackiness.

[bluedeucedodge]

The cloud has a mustache?

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA and Catman.

[zmanjz]

is that a Bearded Orange SD gundam?

you know what's really messed up, If they continued with new episodes of Perfect Hair Forever, they'd probably do better than Milk Chan.

[bluedeucedodge]

I wonder if they will re-run FMA and GitS with facial hair. I doubt it, but I hope that they do.

[Temple Fugate]

They probably didn't put moustaches on the anime eps because the episodes were all-new on Sunday, and those who don't watch AS on Sundays rely on these Thursday night encores. 'Tis quite a bummer though. :(

And I totally missed Squidbillies and PHF tonight. Too busy freaking out playing Silent Hill 4. Stupid stupid stupid!!! ::hits himself::

[Beat]

Am I the only one who sees Perfect Hair Forever as the WS version of BoBoBo-BoBo-BoBo? They're both about hair, and neither make any sense.
