What's the song from that Mr pickles ad?

They lost all will to create something good when they realized that re-runs of Family Guy will always effortlessly trump their best efforts in ratings.

Seriously, why even try when you know that an 8 year old episode of FG that's been played 200 times already on your network will preform better than WHATEVER you do?

They didn't pick up Hellbenders.

[adult swim] was at its best when it was just original series and anime, and an occasional long forgotten but good picked up series like Mission Hill.

They lost this sort of unstated goal they had initially to not be like other networks that air mature animation, but somehow still ended up as cable-version Fox anyways.

Was probably the money.

Though that being said, it still produces something good every now and then. Rick and Morty is pretty fun.

The pilot got very stale after the tavern scene.

As if they dumped all the good jokes into the beginning scene to catch your attention.

Well that wasn't their fault. They even marathoned it the week they were losing the rights, and pretty much called out that it was bullshit.

They never made any new episodes of Mission Hill? Also, this is a thread about what went wrong. That would have been WAY right.

Supposedly it was between Korgoth and Venture Brothers.

I imagine by the time they could have put it up Genndy was probably busy with Titan or something.

So? Aqua Teen went on for a decade and, hell, most of its run was actually pretty solid. Best it end when it's still decent, than it need to be shot behind the barn like some other long-running cartoons.
>>
>>81880376
lots of things

Futurama and Family Guy giving higher ratings than their OC (Sealab, Birdman, etc)

replaying 13 episode shows over and over instead of staggering them (Oblongs, Mission Hill, Baby Blues)

live action/Tim & Eric shit

embracing stoner humor
becoming a dumping ground for FOX and only FOX animation (CS, AD, KOTH, BB, SDSU)

dropping weekday anime ("action") (though, honestly, with what anime licenses cost nowadays, I can understand this)

holding their viewers in contempt

...just to name a few

I miss the feeling of watching adult swim as a kid in the early 00's, staying up late with the volume low and the lights off to catch the weird mystique and racy humor (at least as a kid) of their original programming and the feel that you were doing something bad and edgy when you watched anime because it was "too mature"

;_;
>>
>>81880376
Too much shit from Fox, and garbage live action. Also not enough Anime, though that's understandable considering how 90% of it is utter shit now.
