Things You Can't Stand About Adult Swim
« on: February 17, 2008, 10:32:09 PM »
Adult Swim really annoys me. The anime is at ridiculous times of night. They always cut the openings and endings, inuyasha had no opening at all. Saturday is whent they have the new episodes of anime so i wait the entire week for the new episodes, but sometimes they replace the entire lineup with something else. The only reason i watch it anymore is because its the only channel i have that shows any anime at all.

so anyone else have something they cant stand?

ps. i use dish network. anyone know which channels have anime on them?

Hmm to be honest I haven't watched adult swim since i started college. Mostly it was just okay ill watch some animes though I've already seen it subbed and it was just on.

To be honest you kind of have to remember one thing. Adult Swim isn't an anime channel. Those that watch adult swim are not necessarily anime fans either. They have anime programming. I know starz has some though, sci fi had anime mondays or something g4 should still have something and i think fuse had some animes too.

If it really bothers you go get a dvd or download it. As for ridiculou hours it runs 11-2 thats not ridiculous. I mean maybe watching 3-6 is a little odd but c'mon insomnia for the win.
Believe in the me, that believes in you!

ill check that out sometime. txs. but i still think that they shouldnt mess around with the anime they actually have. idk, i guess i just dont like pointless shows. also, if i should miss the 12:30- 2 lineup then i have to wait for the 3-5. wow, i really have no life do i lol.

period...that show is abhorrent...Also, Adult Swim seems to have put way more into Venture Brother's than Stroker and Hoop (which debuted on the same evening) and I gotta say, I thought S&H had more potential...although, I cannot deny the fact that Venture Brothers is a pretty sweet show...

I miss cable...I haven't been able to watch anything in ages...thank god for DVD collections

Just how some of the crap they show makes me feel like they're trying to insult my intelligence as a viewer. I mean, Assy McGee? The show is about a butt that acts like a second-rate Jack Bauer. It's depressing.

Too bad SciFi got rid of Ani-Mondays though. I loved both Noein and Tactics, they were really fun shows. But I dunno, I guess it went downhill when they started showing every Street Fighter movie ever made.  :o
