What are these bastards planning tonight
FLCL picture-in-picture during the Fox block.
Wonder Showzen and Million Dollar Extreme videos playing at the same time with flashing messages and images
Who cares.
If they do anything it'll probably be at 11 during their live action garbage.
And that ain't worth watching.
I hope it's Fish Center.
It will be The Room again and you know it
They already did their prank you newfags and it was nothing
Okay did anyone else see the April Fools ad again
Toonami Pre-Flight confirmed nothing was the prank
>>81346166
There was just a commercial that hinted at something after this Bob's Burgers.
>>81351581
THAT'S THE JOKE
THEY'RE SHOWING NOTHING
NOTHING

They've been airing that bump since 9:00 PM yesterday night, my man.
>>81351657
>>81351672
>>81351701
It was a totally new different bump.
>>81351775
Nothing's going to happen either way.
We got that weird Lustful Cabin promo with Mike Tyson.
Fuck the Cleveland show so hard
That's it i'm committing a crime because of this
It is nothing. They are just stringing us along. I quit watching after an hour last night. They think they are clever by pretending that nothing happening is the joke, when in reality adult swim is so unoriginal now that the old adult swim would have made fun of them 10 times over.
the prank is just your disappointment
The Splat is still doing pranks, right now they're doing an episode of Doug sideways
>>81354809
You sound cranky, Grandpa. Maybe it's time for bed.
>>81354996
Get off my lawn!
>>81354970
>Adult Swim did worse than people who unironically "rickrolled" in 2016
Absolutely pathetic.
>>81354996
He's right.
Adultswim is rapidly dwindling away the goodwill they've painstakingly accrued. They've traded their innovative cutting-edge underdog appeal for a more sleek, market-tested, myopic ratings driven alternative. They've become the opposite of everything that made them such a hit to begin with.
>Consider the bast swung

Wasn't last year's prank some stupid token game for an all night marathon of ATHF? Honesty nothing is better than so thing that lame
>>81355375
>nothing is better
Fuck you, no it isn't.
It was shitty last year, but at least they gave enough of a fuck to actually do anything at all.
So how are they going to ruin her character?
>>81355375
Literally anything is better than doing absolutely nothing. The coin game was awful, but it was SOMETHING.
>>81354970
and now its upside down. but since its Doug, it makes it more interesting
>>81355375
>nothing is better
Uh no. Sitting through the same old two Robot Chickens, aqua Teen, squids, the venture Brothers and then a repeat of the four hours of fox reruns from earlier is much worse than a 6 hour aqua teen marathon + coin hunt + online fish center tie in
>people expecting a prank when the clock switches over to April 2nd
You're idiots.
>>81355596
Boy you sure showed them man i'm sure that scathing insult will make them give up now.
>>81355662
Pretty sure I somehow triggered you, so I apologize for your sensitivity to the word "idiot". I guess that's sadly just the reality of the millenial generation.
But really, they've never done a prank on April 2nd, it's always once the clock hits April 1st. I can't believe some of you are actually still holding out for a proper gag when the joke was that there was no gag.
>>81355714
Come on Ms.Barnes not all millennials are bad.
>>81355714
You seem to be triggered
you all seem to be fucking stupid as shit
Adult swim is practically two networks now. One is a very highly rated actual television channel that's hypermarketed to 18-34 year old males. The success of Rick and Morty along with the Fox repeats consistently getting some of the highest ratings on TV every night caused them to function like a traditional network. That's why they're suddnenly pouring money into surefire hits like Samurai Jack and extending Rick and Morty's seasons. Around the same time they started acting like a real channel, they also started the live streams. The streams have no ads, cost literally nothing, and are purely experimental nonsense like FishCenter or Crossword puzzles all day. It's basically adult swim trying to maintain an image but with no stakes. The problem is, the live streams, by virtue of being live, have no animation whatsoever. So adult swim is still experimenting, just sadly not in animation.
>It's fucking nothing. AGAIN.
You fags are gluttons for punishment.
>>81356014
Their best experimentation has to be their "infomercials". Some of those are downright art.
Holy fuck I wish I was a mod so I could ban idiots who believe AS is still going to pull an April Fools gag on fucking April 2nd. I have a hard time believing people are willingly this fucking stupid.
>>81354809
Go to sleep pamela
Anybody have a stream? My cable just went out
>>81356441
Nothing is happening, go to bed.
>>81354996
>Grandpa
>Pamela
What kind of grandpa you got, girl?
can't wait for the 17th. That show looks awesome.
Something's happening
>>81356611
lol
OH SHIT, GUYS!
>>81356611
>>81356653
Fuck off
>>81356679
Calm down, Jesus.
>>81356185
Book of Jesus is one of my favorite is things ever.
Thank you blessed argon.
Wow, all the mad fags in this thread
HOLY SHIT! THAT WAS SO AWESOME!
>>81356798
I'M FUCKING READY!
Well at least RC and ATHF have looped back to the early seasons.
>>81356851
Watching early Robot Chicken is weird. All these dated pop culture references.
>Trigun fucking Maximum
THEY ACTUAL DID IT!
>>81356844
>>81356798
>>81356901
You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and lie?
What's Big Grams, and For-Profit Online Universiy?
I wish they would do Public Service Announcements more often
>>81356956
Haven't seen the other one but For Profit is great.
guys, it's nothing. though why do I have the feeling that Toonami might do something for shits n giggles?
>>81357030
I hope the joke was Hunter x Hunter
>>81357030
Really? my fucking name is fannie henry?
>>81357030
>>81357057
>>81357058
>April 30th
>"Just you wait. AS's got something cooking!"
>>81357100
top kek
This was the first episode of Robot Chicken I watched, nearly 10 years ago.
>>81346346
Fuck You!
>expecting anything from modern [as]
I sort of knew they would do some shit like this. They lost their touch long ago.
>a new season of Mr. Pickles
oh
good
that's just what I wanted
>In 2016, advertisements were shown for the April Fools broadcast, recapping the past several years of pranks and hyping up that year's prank. When midnight did occur, regular programming played, with the implication being that the prank for 2016 was that there was no prank.
the best was 2014. space ghost coast to coast non stop with those weird shells you were supposed to collect or whatever
>>81357386
I do remember thinking it was a little weird that they would advertise something like that.
>>81357386
anything worse than a meta-prank
Post your top 5 favorite AS April Fools' pranks

Any minute now.
I would shit myself if they unveiled a new Aqua Teen movie
>>81358112
Death Fighter is shelved, bro.
>>81358033
Nothing will happen;_;
It's nothing
Oys nothing
>>81358393
>>81358422
Just wait, guys. Adult Swim's got something up their sleeve that will blow us all away.
>>81358463
Alright if nothing happens after Venture Bros I'm going to bed
>"I hate Phantom Spaceman"
Oh god, what a throwback meme
>adult swim keeps airing really old episodes of their old shows
what does it mean
>>81358678
They reset them.
>>81358678
Nothing. They're just running through the seasons like normal
>>81358678
I want them to bring back the old bumpers from 2001 for the night along with Home Movies and Bebop for the night.
why does HelperBot have it so worth
It's nothing
So they hyped this up for nothing?
Fucking hacks
>>81358811
i would die happy if i could just watch one more night of KotH, Fututrama, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Cowboy Bebop and Evangelion
Why does adult swim hate its viewers?
>>81359684
Have you read this thread?
That's way.
>mfw no more fun shit like every anime character farting or playing The Room
>>81359324
It used to play Eva?
You know they're just going to do the prank on April 2nd for shits and gigs, right?
>>81359937
Hunter x Hunter better be a fucking joke.
I feel like adult swim was this generations MTV
>>81359902
back in the day yeah
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NzWtoKldaQ
>>81359971
probably right tbqh
Hmmm, Adult Swim might still do a prank, you guys! It might take another 363 days, but I'm sure it's bound to happen! :^)
can somone post those adult swim music videos?
one was narrated by Beau Billingslea the voice of jet about flowing like water
they were like bumpers but 3 minutes long showing a bunch of toonami shows
>>81359971
Agreed, it was so perfect but it went to shit too early.
>>81360002
Damnit I didn't have cable in 2005

>>81360132
Holy hell that was awesome
>>81360132
>as will never be this cool again
i miss old as
>>81360132
Is it just me or did television go to hell once it switched to digital?
>>81360488
I think it did around that time too anon, everything looks so bland in digital and also the rise of the internet (and smartphones like I'm using) cut down a lot of production budgets.
No joke being the joke is equivalent to those "You mad?" kind of statements. You can't react at all or else the other side gets the victory, so ultimately one just looks like an asshole from the get-go and the other is just annoyed. Nobody wins.
It's just boring. They didn't even make any fake-out bumps save for that one ad.
>>81360642
Pranked fucking HARD bro
You mad?
>>81360345

Adult Swim used to kick some serious ass, when there had been nothing really like it before. Staying up late as an adolescent to watch deviant cartoons in the dark was an indescribable feeling for the time.
Adult Swim is nothing but 5 hours of FOX shows, weird live action shit and some reruns of old shows.
>>81360695
>>81360544
Add onto that the coming of Netflix and reliance on VOD and streaming services and television just went straight to the shitter. Pretty much the only thing on TV now is either just no-effort programming to fill out the slots and programs catered to Baby Boomers and Gen Xers.
>>81360026
April Fools 2017 is on a Saturday, meaning that a Toonami-themed prank might occur.
>>81360642
The complete lack of creativity on their part is almost painful to me
>>81360715
This guy gets it, I've been watching since the night adult swim premiered and there used to be this cool mysterious atmosphere around it, watching shows you weren't supposed to at age 9-10 (or teens) and seeing those bizarre bumpers made it such a unique experience.
Family Guy reruns unfortunately killed adult swim.
>>81360797
I just realized that next year will be the 20th anniversary of Toonami, I feel fucking old.
>>81360835
I still like the bumps, but they aren't even half as good as they used to be in that department either.I would still buy a dvd or bluray of just all of the bumps they've ever aired.
>>81360861
I still hope that they'll just replace Toonami with the old AS Action block, using that old-ass Microsoft Sam narrator. Even if they don't air the classic anime, it would be nice to see modern anime repackaged with the 2002 bumps. That would be kickass.
>>81360835
I'd been a CN junkie as a kid, and had been watching SGC2C which sort of felt like the opening shot of what would eventually become AS. That first night was incredible though, I distinctly remember laughing into a pillow to keep from waking up anyone else in the house.
Everyone takes it for granted these days, but what adult animation do you remember from before AS came around? The Critic? Duckman? Simpsons? Beavis and Butthead? Sure they were around, but all far tamer than most AS stuff today, and more spread around besides.

>tfw kids today google, not giggle. they play angry birds instead of getting angry AT birds. they all have an ipad but no iq. not even one. they playstation but they never play station. i.e. one pretending to be a train and the others pretending to be different trains or low paid maintenance workers. they’re obsessed with one direction, rather than enjoying all eight directions equally. facebook… but unable to face… a book. or a hoop with a stick. a lost generation. the tv show.

Them smart phones are doing what the Europeans did to the Africans
Wow (as) you sure got us damn I'm so angry nothing funnier than shitting over mediocre expectations.
first Google pulls its prank before it even starts because literally no one likes it, now Adult Swim pranks the very notion of pranking people.
is April Fool's Day dead now or what?
>>81361566
I really fucking hope the promo for tonight is something other than HxH.
The only way to make this alright would to extend the block another half hour and have two new shows..
So I guess Big Grams is an animated rap video
Which is neat
And also exactly as advertised
You fuckers
>>81362098
Ya know on second thought.. this would be kinda a relief if HxH came on the air and parasyte took the rerun slot.
Only one hour of Toonami will be watchable now, DBZ and DW and its possible replacement.
I would be getting all that sleep back, not drinking as much.. yeah.. this is what acceptance is like, yeah?
>>81362125
that already premiered on monday

>>81365084
i'm not mad
just disappointed
at least we got hunter x hunter
>>81361064
>that 2001 lineup
God I didn't realize how much I took adult swim and CN for granted back in the day, I thought they would always be great.
>>81360715
goddamn I remember all of those. breaks my heart to see what AS turned into
>>81368608
At least there's things likebumpworthyaround to sort of grab at the nostalgia.
>>81361064
This nostalgia makes me weep for current adult swim. They really did become what they were against, what set them apart and made them popular from everyone else.
>tfw Aprils fools day jeopardy was the highlight of April fools because I was at work all day and forgot it was even April fools to start with.
Man Adult Swim was so comfy
>>81375504
rip in piece comfy
>>81365773
>we got hunter x hunter
I am holding off until the promos on Toonami tonight
Adult Swim is so fucking shit nowadays. It's not even suitable as background noise because you end up sitting through four hours of Cleveland Show and Family Guy only to have them play fucking Robot Chicken.
Like what is the audience for this garbage?
>>81383136
normies
>>81383136
The part that really gets my goat is they fucking play the same shit again 3 hours later. It's like they want me to change the channel
