Wow  This post is anime-related because you can catch animes on it.

And now showing at 5:30am...
Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos.
Anime will be resigned to its usual slots, and the expansion won't affect it.

Definite proof that the fad has been taken too far.

Anyone know when this new change takes effect? And when AS Fix will start?

That's my question too.
Also, what show are they going to add? Is it going to be a new show or one that's already in their library? Because if it's one that they already are showing, what's such a big deal about expanding Adult Swim?

I hope they plan on giving new shows. It's only so many time I can watch re-runs of Cowboy Bebop or Trigun. Nothing against Bebop or Trigun, just want to see something new since they're expanding the time. Samurai 7 or and unedited version of GS Destiny, though I highly doubt it...

Not enough people seem to realize that Samurai 7 is already on the air on IFC.

I thought it didn't start until April.

Please, with stuff like Squidbillies, 12oz Mouse, and Minoriteam currently running, the last thing Adult Swim needs is more mind-numbing filth of the lowest degree.

Just checked the IFC calender. Samurai 7's first episode will air April 1 at 10:30 pm. Sorry it didn't say if it was Eastern time or what. But at least that gives everyone a date to check their local listings.

I figured it was on the air. Nice to know I didn't miss anything.

Squidbillies is funny occasionally, but 12 Oz Mouse and Minoriteam are both genius shows.
And that extra half hour will be for showing The Oblongs most of the time. That's great because The Oblongs is a great show.

12 Oz. Mouse shares the same concept of Tom Goes to the Mayor: Both are horrible pieces of **** that shows the mental retardation of their respective creators.

This is the first time I ever heard an anime being compared to these pieces of s*** shows... this should the new low for grading.
I think it's a big deal because [as] is slowly taking over Miguzi and Toonami. If the ratings are good for these early slots, I wouldn't be surprised if [as] goes through another "expansion" in the near future.
