On September 2, 2001, Adult Swim was born, kicking off with a lineup of Home Movies, The Brak Show, Sealab 2021, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, and Cowboy Bebop.

Feel free to about when you were first introduced to AS, favorite memories you have of AS, favorite/least favorite shows, thoughts on current AS, what you predict Adult Swim will do today to celebrate, all that jazz....

Also, Bill Oakley (Mission Hill creator) and Angus Oblong (The Oblongs creator) will both be doing AMAs in the Adult Swim subreddit if anyone is interested in that.

I can't swear that I watched the VERY first evening of [adult swim] but I distinctly remember watching SGC2C pre-[as] and I definitely watched it pre-9/11.

I'm glad my parents are older and didn't give a shit about me staying up late at the time. I was 10 years old and in 5th grade when [as] kicked off and I would even stay up a little longer to catch Conan if I especially didn't care about school the next day.
>>
>>85965656
I was a regular [asmb]-goer at the time when they decided to change over from anime after midnight on the weekdays for more Family Guy. Things got ugly. Nobody shitposts like they do.
>>
>>85972419
And now it was changed into a shitty reddit knockoff for literally no reason.
>>
>>85972419
>>85972441
Yup. As shit as the ASMB got, it was still a piece of AS history and there was some interesting information about Adult Swim that's now been lost to the ages.
>>
>>85972441
Shit that's pretty depressing. I'm sure there are still some of the OG people there because when you've been there that long and have amassed a fuckhuge post count it's hard to leave your e-penis behind.
>>
>>85972526
They really need to just fix it and start interacting with the community more, like what they used to do.
>>
>>85972550
seriously. that place is even more of a shithole than it was before. The people from Incoherent Babbling and stuff have taken over completely. You can't even talk about Adult Swim.
>>
>>85972653
They could also just ban off-topic discussion completely, there's no reason for it to have that sort of shit when there's no separation of specific topics anymore.

It’s crazy how downhill Adult Swim's schedule has gone since the turn of the decade

For example, in December of 2008, when Adult Swim only broadcast seven hours a night, this is what their schedule included (* denotes series in production or airing new episodes that year):

You had Moral Orel*, The Boondocks*, Aqua Teen*, Robot Chicken*, Superjail*, Frisky Dingo*, Squidbillies*, Metalacolypse*, Xavier: Renegade Angel*, The Drinky Crow Show*, Tim and Eric Awesome Show: Great Job*, Sealab 2021, Stroker and Hoop, Tom Goes to the Mayor, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Home Movies, Mission Hill, Clerks: the Animated Series, Minoriteam, and Lucy Daughter of the Devil all in regular rotation, with new acquisitions King of the Hill and The PJs joining the lineup the first week of 2009. Outside of Adult Swim action, you also had The Big O and Inuyasha airing late night reruns on weekdays.

And Seth McFarlane shows (American Dad and Family Guy) only aired in reruns in the 11 PM hour Monday-Thursday with new episodes on Sundays.

Today, Adult Swim has expanded to 10 hours a night, with 7 of them devoted to FOX reruns (American Dad, The Cleveland Show, King of the Hill, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers).

The only originals that air during the week are doubled up reruns of Robot Chicken, Aqua Teen, and Squidbillies that form a 90 minute block after midnight (of which the Robot Chicken episodes getting second rerun slot later in the night). The Eric Andre Show, MDE: World Peace, Squidbillies, and Brad Neely's new show, are the only originals currently in production and/or airing new episodes on either Friday or Sunday. The only other AS originals that get any airtime are Rick and Morty and Mike Tyson Mysteries.

So what do you guys think Adult Swim is going to do to celebrate?
>>
>>85973533
The same exact thing they did this April Fool's.
>>
>>85973436
Where did it all go so wrong?

>>85973581
Shortly after CN City died.
The comfy died on Cartoon Network and then the stench of death started to overtake [as] too, but slowly.

>>85973633
Yeah, AS didn't quite go full shit until about 5 years ago.

Old School ASA was also just as bad because it was reruns of the same fucking thing. Drop the damn nostalgia. Wolf's Rain was probably one of the better "newer" shows ASA ran, when people got tired of reruns of Cowboy Bebop and Char's Counterattack.

>>85973436
shame. Adult Swim was doing pretty good in june.

Weekdays went like this
12:00 - Robot
12:15 - Mike Tyson (later Mr. Pickles)
12:30 - Aqua
12:45 - Squid
1:00 - Tim and Eric (later Eric Andre)
1:15 - Check it Out (later Tim and Eric, almost Tom Goes to the Mayor, and again later Robot Chicken)

Saturday evening's schedule was a rating failure but it was still cool:
8:00 - DBZ Kai
8:30 - Aqua Teen x2
9:00 - Rick and Morty
9:30 - Cleveland
10:00 - AD
10:30 - FG
11:00 - FG
11:30 - Toonami

and Sundays went like this:
11:00 - Rick and Morty
11:30 - Robot Chicken (later new Squids)
11:45 - New Mike Tyson (later new Brad Neely)
12:00 - Mr Pickles (later Mike Tyson Mysteries)
12:15 - Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1 (later Mr. Pickles)
12:30 - China IL (later Metalocalypse and Superjail)

It's amazing how quick it nosedived. At least Home Movies is back next week. Plus apparently Birdman, Space Ghost, etc are supposed to be in some "The Splat" like block yet to be announced, according to some leak on /r/adultswim by the guy who posted the HD remaster of Home Movies

>>85973539
Here's hoping they spent their effort usually given for April Fools on tonight's schedule
>>
>>85973907
Then Miguzi was dropped because who fucking wants to watch 5heads talk about computers? Or the fact that Totally Spies was just a show to shove as many fetishes as they could. Also Toonami had the better promos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfadJj4d5K4
>>
>>85973983
Yeah, wtf happened with TGGTM? And shame they pulled AT from Saturday nights.

I really hope they have something special planned for us, because honestly, with a few diversions here and there, Adult Swim's scheduling has gotten so fucking strict and homogenous not only in the past 5 or so years, but in the past few years alone.
>>
>>85974097
Seems like Adult Swim has been reluctant on airing old shows outside of 4am and Aqua Teen solely because they look like shit in HD. It's not exactly because it's a SD show, it's because it looks like shit with the way Turner digitized the early programs in 2008. They used old broadcast tapes rather than the raw footage, so there was tons of problems with shitty looking colors, audio compression, ghosting, and all that. When the HD Home Movies stuff was leaked, the leaker also said Aqua Teen was being remastered in HD and Space Ghost, Birdman, Sealab, and S1 of Home Movies were getting redigitized so they dont look bad (ESPECIALLY Home Movies, the Hulu version looks awful compared to the DVD). Cant remaster them in HD because they either dont have the animation cells/files, but AS is apparently gonna stop stretching them, similar to what they do with early Eric Andre and DBZ Kai
>>
>>85974306
The HD Home Movies stuff actually looked pretty fucking good too, I think you could see more of the background details as well that you wouldn't have been able to see in 4:3
>>
>>85974306
Yeah I'd heard about that.
>ESPECIALLY Home Movies, the Hulu version looks awful compared to the DVD
Fuck I thought I was the only one who noticed that. What the hell did they do?

>but AS is apparently gonna stop stretching them, similar to what they do with early Eric Andre and DBZ Kai
Thank god. Stretch-o-vision + limited computer animation + 480p picture = fucking horrible to watch
>>
I remember seeing the first promo for Adult Swim perhaps during June Bugs or sometime late at night on Cartoon Network.

I might not have watched the full lineup that first night (I recall catching Cowboy Bebop halfway through its first run), but I've been there for many of its series premieres: ATHF, Metalocalypse, Inuyasha, Sealab, Code Geass, GITS.

I currently own nearly all of the AS original DVDs and BDs, 68 in all. I plan to get the others I do not have, even though WB seems to no longer be releasing other than VB and Rick and Morty now.

Still, Adult Swim has given me some of my favorite television memories as well as great music and great times on their boards. I hope some new and wonderful memories are to come in the next fifteen years.

I used to watch it when I was younger and it was great, it ran only on the weekends, CN used to run the same episode of Scooby-Doo, then it would cut at some weird time during the episode and Adult Swim would start.

the "space ghost special" is called Earth Ghost and it aired in 2011 and the "lost media" is just an un-aired live action pilot. All of that is coming on at 4 fucking a.m.

If that's all they got then AS is truly lost

>>
>>85976245
It's part of Adult Swim's DVR Theater block. They love to air old shows and pilots and specials there because ratings don't matter there. They also air new episodes of Infomercials and Off the Air at that timeslot.

Hey, at least he's old enough to remember the last throes of good CN. If he were born just a little later, he would be more nostalgic for 06 CN - which was shit

Most of my tapes of the Adult Swim run are from when it was airing Lupin the 3rd.

Contrary to what Facebook or 9gag will tell you, 2004 wasn't the official "death" of CN; it was merely a small decline.

Even though this was the year when the network changed its logo, it still managed to maintain a great year of programming with shows like Duck Dogers, Megas XLR, and Star Wars: Clone Wars. It was the overlap between the best of the best of the 90s cartoons dwindling out/still getting reruns and the best of the early 2000s, before the mediocre stuff they pushed from 2005-2009.

2006 was where it started to noticeably decay. And 2007-2009 is when the roof caved in with CN Real.

Where the nostalgia shows, there just playing family guy reruns?

>>85976611
The problem with most of that is, they found they could right off many of their new properties as tax write-offs if they didn't make the money they wanted to off them. Hence why Megas XLR and Sym-bionic Titan are now in government copyright hell.

It started with Checkerboard, which they had until 97, fairly basic, from when CN wasn't as popular, and pretty much just ran old shows that would become boomerang.

From 97 to 04 there was Powerhouse, which is the one a lot of people think of when they think of the 'golden age'. They started introducing original shows, a lot of the classic stuff is from here. Adult Swim was introduced here, as was Toonami.

Starting in 04 was CN City, which would mark the start of changing cartoons more quickly and frequently. A lot of the classic shows were still around and heavily featured in the bumpers, but more new stuff was added as well. Shows like Foster's Home, Megas XLR, Camp Lazlo, Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, My Gym Partner's a Monkey, stuff like that.

In 06, CN entered a weird state where it introduced a new era of bumpers, Yes!, but still kept the City stuff around. Yes! was known for the all red backgrounds, a lot of handdrawn aesthetic stuff. There was a lot of Fred Fred Burger stuff as I recall, which I'm sure most of /co/ hated, and that's even where they got the name from. But CN City bumpers were still around during this, all the way up to 07.

Briefly in the middle of 07 they introduced Summer, which should not be confused with "Cartoon Network Summer", which was an event they did in both 05 and 06, that was part of the CN City era. This was a distinct era, with unique bumpers and aesthetic sensibilities that only lasted for the summer of 2007. Very trippy, psychedelic stuff. This was also the first era under Stuart Snyder.

After Summer, still in 07, they introduced Fall. This is when CN real was being introduced, and there was a major rebranding. The best way I can describe it is like, back to school sale aesthetic, if you get what I mean? Kinda hard to describe, one of the blander eras.

After Fall, came Noods, lasting from 08-10. Noods had those weird, blob dudes of the characters. This is probably what most people would consider the start of modern CN. A lot of elements that would become definitive for their aesthetic became solidified here, the vibrant, solid colors on black and white, the chiptunes, general tone and attitude.

Then in 2010 Noods became simplified to Check It. The Noods themselves were gone, and CN adopted more or less it's modern aesthetic. Very pop art. Check It lasted until this year, which is the second longest an era has lasted for CN, only outmatched by Powerhouse. That being said, it went through several changes over the years, having mini generations of itself.

Eventually, earlier this year, Check It 4.5 or something like that would become an era distinct to itself, dimensional, which is what we have now, introducing 3D elements to the highly simplified Check It aesthetic.

Anyone know where to fund Adultswim promos from about 2004? May have been in Australia only, but they had Inuyasha, Ghost in the Shell, Initial-D and maybe othersm, I remember one of the quotes in the promo was 'Do you believe in the existance of the soul? Love is the only thing I believe in'. And 'Shes the reincarnation of Kikyo'.

Been trying to find this promo for ages. Help would be appriciated

To be fair, 15th anniversaries tend not to be seen as important or "big" as 10th or 20th anniversaries.

CN didn't do anything for their 15th anniversary in 2007, for instance. (though some would say this was Stuart Snyder trying to focus more on live-action and take viewers' minds off older shows)

Why are we here? Just to suffer?
