You gonna admit tough, you kinda miss CB in the ASC lineup, but it rightfully belongs on ASA

[JDuncan]

Congratulations William's Street, Cartoon Network, Soup to Nuts, 70-30 Productions, and Bandai!
You have made a block that has done more in one year than most cable animation blocks do their whole lifespan. Now, you need to air NEW EPISODES!

Go Adult Swim! Go Adult Swim!
It's your Birthday! It's your Birthday!

Your one year older, one year wiser.
Rock and roll star and a keiser
A room full af friends, a mouth full of cake
every present is for you and it feels pretty great
Your the man of the hour, the V-I-P
You get the first slice, of the P-I-E
But first blow out the candles and make a wish.
Put a smile on! Cause its your birthday *****!

Go Adult Swim! Go Adult Swim!
It's your Birthday! It's your Birthday!

[J.C.]

*raises a glass* Here's to many more years of one of the best animation blocks in television history.

Happy Birthday, Adult Swim. :cool:

I remember seeing the first commercials for Bebop and thinking: "Adult Swim?"

A year later, it's basically the only television I watch.

Happy Birthday.

One year ago...

...that was the day I came home late on a Sunday evening and convinced my brother and his friend to let me watch just one episode of "Cowboy Bebop", the only show I was interested in on Adult Swim, before they played "Grand Theft Auto 3" on PS2. I never considered watching the rest of AS then because I thought the other shows were just fillers for "Cowboy Bebop".

Then came Adult Swim Action, and it was good. It had Toonami-edited shows, but I watched them anyway. It had "Cowboy Bebop" and "Yu Yu Hakusho", the best anime on TV at that time thanks to Toonami's slump.

Then, when I was bored, I watched Adult Swim Comedy, and it
was even better. All those shows I missed...I quickly caught up and made sure I never missed them. I started to miss some ASA shows because they were reruns, but I never missed an ASC show.

Now, one year later, both blocks have grown incredibly. ASC is getting some new shows later on, including the secret acquisition, and ASA is proving it isn't a dumping ground for Toonami acquisitions. I see a bright future ahead...and it's practically blinding. And that isn't a bad thing, either.

Happy birthday, Adult Swim. Here's to another and even better year. *runs off to get drunk*

happy b-day to the best thing on cartoon network since toonami (the old toonami) came about. Remeber the moltar hosting days lol.

I was glad when they moved cowboy bebop to saturday cas i was able to watch it cas sunday id have to go to bed before it was on cas of school and everything. Thanks to adult swim ive gotten even a bigger anime fan and the other shows are pretty good too sometimes making me laugh my ass off.

[puzzlegut]

Happy Birthday. Lets hope that there are many more birthdays to come.

[Evil Dr. Reef]

You beat me to the punch on this thread (by about 8 hours), LFV. Happy Birthday ASC! We drink Chlorinated Water to honor you.

[dino boy]

I was so excited when I first found out about AS - I didn't even know about it, just happened to catch it on CN one night, and went supermadcrazy. I was always a big fan of space ghost and cartoon planet, and was glad to see that there was a forum for that kind of humor, and that the good people at Williams Street were making more shows. I am looking forward to another excellent year!

Don't forget Capt. Linger in: Stranger in Town where he was saying I'm from Pennsilvannia, and Aquaman dancing in a drive through I have about 9 tapes of ADULT SWIM COMEDY Since it aired on September 2 of last year.

[SpaceCowboy]

Happy birthday Adult Swim and let's hope it will stay on for many more years to come just like Cartoon Network and Toonami have.

I still have Cowboy Bebop episodes recorded from the first weeks when there was no "Parents Strongly Cautioned" written disclaimer, TV14 pasted throughout the whole episode, a red ADULT SWIM logo, and less commercials. Have the times changed.

[hello_lola]

Jolly jeepers, it's been a year already?! Happy birthday AS! Hope you have a dozen more :D !
