What's the worst show on Adult Swim? - Page 2

Tickerwelly · 01.07.2008, 08:03 PM

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.

yeah, word on home movies

atsonicpark · 01.08.2008, 03:37 AM

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.

ZEROpumpkins · 01.08.2008, 03:39 AM

Diggin' those new Scissor Shock pics.

atsonicpark · 01.08.2008, 03:43 AM

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?

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 01.08.2008, 04:20 AM

The Venture brothers is alright, but it gets bland after awhile.

atsonicpark · 01.08.2008, 09:31 PM

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.

Now that Futurama is gone. All of them

HaydenAsche · 01.10.2008, 10:21 AM

I don't like Saul and the Molemen or Assy McGee. My favorites are TGTTM, ATHF, Squidbillies, Sealab 2021, Metalocolypse, and 12 oz. mouse.

davenotdead · 01.10.2008, 02:29 PM

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.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 01.10.2008, 02:41 PM

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?

davenotdead · 01.10.2008, 02:47 PM

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.

Rob Instigator · 01.10.2008, 02:48 PM

stop watching cartoons people. the world is going to shit and all anyone wants to do is see animated fart jokes.

atsonicpark · 03.22.2009, 04:49 PM

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.
