>men are all robots
This show just feels so angry and full of emotional baggage. What is funny about this?

>post-mike lazzo adult swim
just throw it in a fricking dumpster and move on
Lazzo ran adult swim for 20 years and never once greenlit a show created by women
Michael Ouweelen has been at the helm 5 years and has greenlit 6 female created shows that have all been dogshit, the exception is maybe tuca and bertie which wasn't THAT bad
Holy frick they literally have shit-colored skin
Tuca and Bertie sucked ass and only women liked it (meaning it's bad)
Tuca and Bertie was just Bojak Horseman on PMS.
that implies there was some actual conflict or story that happened in the show
Most of AS shows were shit though so I don’t think this is gender issue this time
Lmao
Every single year had some kino tho
2001: Aqua Teen Hunger Force
2002: Harvey Birdman
2003: The Venture Bros
2004: Tom Goes to the Mayor
2005: The Boondocks or Moral Oral
2006: Metalocalypse
2007: Xavier Renegade Angel
2008: Superjail
2009: Delocated
2010: Check It Out!
2011: China IL
2012: Eric Andre or Black Dynamite
2013: Rick & Morty

2015: King Star King
2016: World Peace
2017: Samurai Jack reboot
2018: Joe Pera Talks with You
2019: Primal
2020: Smiling Friends
Since Lazzo left there's been nothing but muh womyn shit
>2003: The Venture Bros
Literally the cutoff point
Yeah totally but even from the start most of the shows were more of a novelty and then way later on they were just bad lol
Not all of them though
I would add sea lab 2021 to list
I have nostalgia for the oldest stuff thought although most of it isn’t great
ATHF is one of the best shoes period
literally the most popular shows on adult swim were all canceled fox and upn shows, and every one of their popular original shows that almost made family guy rerun numbers (lol) end up in constant production struggles because "they cost too much"
rick and morty was literally adult swims only hit that did better than them replaying fox shows
Grim
Honestly I’m surprised they lasted this long it was weird when AS really blew up and everyone was watching it
Let’s not forget that AS got super butthurt when they didn’t option the rights to Dethklok’s music and missed out on a frickton of cash when the Dethalbums kept raking in money.
another one of their popular shows that "costed too much"
>venture bros was over 20 years ago
>boondocks is coming up on 20
christ
>20 years ago
Oof
Time marches on always to the the inevitable
Superjail came out in 2008?
tuca and bertie was a netflix show
Season 1 was made by Netflix, Seasons 2 and 3 were produced by Adult Swim

women can write good stuff, the manga and anime industry is an example of that, and there are plenty of good women novelists. The main problem is that the people making these shows got the opportunity mostly due to nepotism and politics.
>the manga and anime industry is an example of that
Japanese women don't have the same feminist, manhating bagging which is why they can still write stories that aren't just bitter crying about sexism and men.
>and there are plenty of good women novelists
And they've all been in the grave for decades if not centuries.
They really think they're not losing anything by shitting on men all the time.
mmmok then. Things are about to get real crazy and none of us need you
>Things are about to get real crazy and none of us need you
There are literally third world rapists roaming the streets of every major western nation and tradespeople are raising their prices constantly, women need a man now more than ever.
They government will subside them.
I'm not clicking that.
>our skin color is a personality trait
ugh
Adult Swim should just call it quits. Who is this made for?
AS is pozzed as frick these days, even their bumpers are cringe and the black background white text ones aren't even witty anymore just some fat chick at the keyboard going "omgluvcatz" or something.
>watching current year americuck ~~*media*~~
>2102
>compton is still a shithole
The absolute state of American media.
The blue chick can get it
You don't fit in here. You should leave bro
No
I don’t think I will
>You don't fit in here.
Imagine being as gay as to post that here. Get raped
I agree
would blue hair girl
Ah, a perfect example of a company knowing their audience.
This is why they keep greenlighting horrible female-led shows.
There's a reason why he was running an (at the time) hugely successful comedy network and not some hole.
Based but all thats hearsay and enormous quotes
Sound like a foid shake down to mussel in on the network to me
I think it needs to happen though women need to see that they are mediocre and not that interesting usually
I don't understand why they make cartoons for grownups. It feels like the only reasons could be
>ADULTS ARE BEING DUMBED DOWN
>or
>CHILDREN ARE BEING EXPOSED TO ADULT IDEAS
Both actually
At the time when adult swim was new
Adult cartoons weren’t unheard of obviously but they broke with common sitcoms structure of most popular AC at the time and got really weird and esoteric
Yeah but imagine watching it after the first few. Like Harvey Birdman is kinda funny, in a Reddit sort of way. But it was downhill from there.
Ding ding ding... exactly
Every sphere of entertainment is about infantilising adults while exposing kids to adult ideas.
Why?
>Why
I think it’s just natural decline
Things got built up in the 20th century and they are changing now/ have been changing with the internet but it’s all the old media /institutions we are used to and they are dying
People don't read anymore, either
They do but things have become more interest focused , less visible, and yes numbers have dropped, compared to 50 years ago,but I would argue people don’t read book other papers media but they read shit online although most of it is just bull shit like social media but they are still technically reading
Things come and go in waves we are just in a depressed period
The printed word is sans distraction and can't be altered instantly tho
Agreed but the Soviets would just remove old books and replace them with new “updated” ones
Not sure how we can do anything about that but archive
I’m sure people will figure out the best solution
>Why
>infantilising adults
Weak men
exposing kids to adult ideas
Broken men
It's infantilization of adults. Guess who's behind it? It's also the reason that they push "professional" sports. They're all children's games and adults act like it's life or death. That one is even worse in Europe. If you're in your late 20s and still wear a jersey with someone else's name, you are as much a manchild as old guys wearing rick and Morty shirts and talking about funkos.
>It's also the reason that they push "professional" sports.
i'm pretty sure professional sports have been popular for more than a century.
Adult Swim is still trying to apologize for that time Mike Lazzo said women aren't funny and boy howdy, all those amazing, long running, and critically acclaimed female-created shows that AS has greenlit sure keeps proving Lazzo wrong.
I detect sarcasm
I stoped really watching adult swim around 2005-6 or so
Since those comments
They've made greatly expanded the presence of women on the channel.
They greenlit 3 Busy Debras, Tuca and Birdy (it was originally on Netflix), Teenage Euthanasia, this show, Tender Touches, and greatly expanded female presence in the writers room of shows like Rick and Morty and Robot chicken.
All of these have been horrid decisions.
Birdgirl was another one
Yeah women arnt funny or maybe they are to women but I doubt it
I feel like woman and diversity hires are the fungi breaking down and decomposing these dead media entities
Of course it is. Millennial writers only know their own emotional baggage, so it's all they write about.
>Millennial writers only know their own emotional baggage, so it's all they write about
This is more of an LA writer problem, there are plenty of millenials with actual lived adult experience that could write interesting and amusing fiction but they weren't born into wealthy banking families with shares in WarnerDiscovery iykwim
It’s called the glass cliff. They hire women in leadership during their downturn so if shit hits the fan, they catch the blame.
This is very common yeah.
>Why?
It'd only make sense in a society controlled by pedophilles...
You have to wonder
But also it causes general brainrot
Lowering of standards
Holy shit is this the new cope? No, just no.
Similar Black persongay
lol that makes sense also it’s kind of like a participation trophy
Yeah, that's not what's happening here. Time to wake up and smell the coffee.
He's not wrong. Any complaints and criticism can be blamed on misogyny.
When you think you are at last aware of how intellectually dishonest and reality denying progressives are they prove to you that you aren't at all.
All kids out of the gene pool for Occult Sin
Cancelled after 1 season - the tv show
I can't even chalk this one up to "women aren't funny" because there's been funny women but for some reason everyone in mainstream comedy are just fricking stupid and moronic
Nobody at AS seems to be pushing the envelope these days. Any attempt at edgy humor is simply the writers putting up Strawmen and taking potshots at them, or doing le epic hamfisted political commentary. And any time these shows try to be deep and emotionally charged comes off as trite and shallow
It's just a bunch of, like, fricking redditors
I honestly think World Peace would be HUGE if it was still on the air today. Imagine Sam Hyde just making fun of dumb roasties for 11 minutes a week. Guarenteed top of the hbo max charts with young men.
Sam with production budget is good, Sam focusing on himself is nails on chalkboard shit. He and his crew aren't interesting people. They give somewhat good advice which boils down to make money, acquire skills. The rest of what they do makes me feel like my brain is dying
As soon as leftist got comfy they got real serous and became wet blanket homosexuals
Frick them though
They're not even proper leftists
I know a bunch of lefties that are still fricking funny and don't even talk about politics most of the time but these annoying Rainbow Capitalist Tisch and Berkeley types are just the most obnoxious and droll people.
MUH REAL LEFTISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED
go, go the frick back to your cuck town forums and red scare pod forums, you insufferable newbie moron. you are the same people, you can't wash your hands of it
Ok we are having a discussion
Just because they are disgusting leftoids doesn't mean we can’t have a chill bro sech
I just see two Black folk. #healing
Well they think they are changing the world and those kinds of grandiose types tent to be humorless entitled shits
They are going to get the rug pull soon because they are effecting the bottom line and that’s when you know it’s about to get fricked
kek. well AS has always had various garbage pilots and shows, some that went on for years and years, they have the success of R&M and now smiling friends to waste money on dumb shit
what the frick.
What the frick is wrong with Americans?
wow I didn't laugh once. A quarter of the way through I started watching at 1.50 speed thinking I would get to the jokes faster. But the jokes never came! THE JOKES NEVER CAME!
This shit is worse than Birdgirl.
I don't even know what's going on with Adult Swim, anymore, and I have not for well over a decade. Even during its heydays of the 2000s, I mostly just watched AS for the anime they had on there.
Did these frickers learn nothing from the Birdgirl travesty? Or maybe now that Smiling friends is turning some quarters they don't care?
