What's the worst show on Adult Swim?
question says it all. Not everything is on the list. I left out the ones that I feel are ok to good. Poll coming soon.
|
i havent seen all of those, but im pretty sure its not 12 oz mouse or tom goes to the mayor
squidbillies and stroke and hoop were awful. moral orel and minoriteam are just blah bleh bleh |
Xavier...etc...What a fucking piece of shit.
|
haven't seen them all but i do like assy mcgee & morel orel
|
When I read the name of this thread I think about a mid-90's band callled Animals That Swim.
|
There's so much crap there that it's tough to decide.
|
I haven't seen all of those so I don't know. But I do know that japanese animated shows have shitty intros.
|
how much time do you have? i think the last good one they did was harvey birdman.
|
I don't watch all the shows. Some of them I can't even make it through a commercial for the show.
I turn Adult Swim on as background noise. |
they all suck save for astro boy, futurama, and family guy. ESPECIALLY all the fucking anime!
|
I do not know any shows on adult swim

Anime is anime is anime. (Well Shin-chan is pretty funny, and I liked Cowboy Bebop, but they are rare exceptions.) Some of their original programming though is awful, it is like there is nobody shooting down bad ideas there. Adult Swim guy! "Let's make a cartoon completely about people made out of poop, and all make them talk like black people!" Executive "that's more offensive than Minoriteam and more repulsive than Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job. Sounds like a great idea, I'm fast tracking it." |
oh cowboy bebop is great. shin chan is weird.
|
for the record, Harvey Birdman and Aqua Teen Hunger Force are two of the greatest shows ever. The first couple seasons of Family Guy were good, all Futurama is good. the new family guy shit is beyond awful, its cringe-worthy in fact. its like they know that they are so 'controversial', so they just try to make the most perverted stuff they can nowadays, and they are just copying the same jokes/stunts and all college-age, frat boys, and teens are eating it up its disgusting.
|
There is some stuff on Family Guy that makes me laugh still. On one new episode, Peter is on a game show named "Björk or Bobcat," where you have to decide if an audio clip is Bobcat Golthwait or Björk. That was pretty funny I thought.
The thing with Family guy is that the show is almost all one-liners. A great and underappreciated Cartoon is Home Movies, because the plot of each episode plays a big role in the comedy. Coach McGuirk is funny because he's so pathetic, not because he makes tons of pop culture references. |
I don't know any of these shows

That is a funny ass show, but all others are lame. The least lame would be moral orel. |
Family Guy, if it's still on there. That show is sooooooo old!
|
I like Assy McGee. Hilarious.
|
I also like the shows Big O and Trigun. But that's it.
|
Tim and Eric are funny as hell. The Poop Tube and Child Clown Outlet skits are pure gold. The Anime on Adult Swim is dull as hell though.

But it is a total gimmick. An ass on legs that is a detective. |
yeah, word on home movies
|
Better question: How many good shows have ever been on adult swim throughout its history? At last count, 11:
Superjail 12 Oz Mouse Home Movies Super Milk Chan Shin Chan Harvey Birdman Cowboy Bebop FLCL Paranoia Agent Evangelion Lupin the 3rd So, 11 out of.. what? At least 50 shows? Anyway.. The worst show currently? Assy McGee. |
Diggin' those new Scissor Shock pics.
|
Me too. I feel lame putting up "oh, it's a girl with scissor shock written on her", but I really feel she is beautiful so fuck it. I also made a bulletin that encourages people to send me ANYTHING -- not just "scissor shock" written on themselves but grafitti or clothes they made or something..

I'd add space ghost to that, and the first season of Sealab was pretty good. Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is sort of funny, but at the same time sort of awful. |
No love for the Venture Bros?
|
The Venture brothers is alright, but it gets bland after awhile.
|
My friend LOVES venture brothers, which is odd, because pretty much every show I listed is ones we agree on (he fucking loves 12 Oz Mouse -- how could anyone NOT? it's genius; it's the epitome of adult swimdom but it's not annoying -- how'd they do that?).
Unfortunately, we don't agree on venture brothers. It's boring. It's not AWFUL, though, unlike most of their shows. It's just.. boring. No comment on Aqua Teen really.. or Sealab.. I think they both have some really good episodes but holy shit does the schtick wear thin. Thank god the episodes are only 11 minutes long. The best adult swim show in a while.. I dunno if they made any episodes of it besides the 1 I saw.. I'm pretty sure they haven't yet, but I went ahead and listed it in my list because it was so great.. this show SUPERJAIL... look it up on their site or youtube and watch the only episode. If the whole show was as good as that pilot, it's going to be amazing. Or it could end up like Perfect Hair Forever and have a cool pilot and end up being fucking awful. Adult Swim sucks. |

she is beautiful..... |
Now that Futurama is gone. All of them

Is for Americans. It is on the Cartoon channel. |
I don't like Saul and the Molemen or Assy McGee. My favorites are TGTTM, ATHF, Squidbillies, Sealab 2021, Metalocolypse, and 12 oz. mouse.
|
ah yes, Metalocolypse is genius at times... Dr Rockzo, the Rock-and-Roll clown is one of the best characters ever.
And for all its faults, really ATHF just has too many quotable episodes to ignore. It really is great. And the good episodes just get better with each viewing...Ive seen some of them a dozen times or so. |
There are about half-a-dozen or so ATHF episodes that are complete classics.
The Broodwitch Dirtfoot The Robot Ghost of Christmas Past From the Future M.C. Pee Pants Anything involving Mooninites there are a few others You know they were gonna make a Spacecataz show? |
I love the Tshirt of the Dead one...classic.
and the Willie Nelson one, where their attic onion-spider friend comes down. I could quote both of those episodes. and Broodwitch is genius. I think i remember hearing about the Spacecataz show, yeah...i dont know if it wouldve worked. but i highly enjoy any episode with them and the mooninites. |
stop watching cartoons people. the world is going to shit and all anyone wants to do is see animated fart jokes.
|
Finally saw Xavier: Renegade Angel. Add that to the list of great Adult Swim shows. Sadly, it's much too intelligent for the average [as] viewer and will likely go over most people's heads. Probably the only truely brilliant, groundbreaking, and FUNNY show since 12 oz. mouse went off the air (though I love Superjail, it never really lived up to the pilot I saw nearly 2 years ago).
The worst show currently on adult swim is probably Drinky Crow. |
