Cartoon Network Announces "Adult Swim" Programming Block
On September 2, fans of "Space Ghost Coast to
Coast" are in for a treat: New episodes! Yes, more of
Space Ghost, Zorak, Moltar, and all the interviews
that usually include a blasting or two. But that's not
all! September 2 also includes the debut of four new
shows, and one brought over from UPN. These will all
be part of a new programming block running from 10PM-
1AM called "Adult Swim". The programs won't be
"Powerpuff Girls" or "Courage the Cowardly Dog"-type
shows, but more along the lines of "The Simpsons".
Here's a list of scheduled shows:
Space Ghost Coast to Coast- A late-night talk show
starring Space Ghost, Zorak, and Moltar. It's on now,
but new episodes are being made for "Adult Swim"
(Thank you 18-49 male demographic!)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force- A detective show. It stars
human-sized food. That's about it.
Harvey Birdman- A law show. From the title, I guess
that "Birdman" hangs up his giant wings at takes a
turn at lawering. I'm also guessing that his clients
will be other 60's and 70's action Hanna-Barbera
cartoon stars, such as "Dino Boy" and "Johnny Quest"...
Home Movies- This was on UPN... Made by the people who
brought us "Dr. Katz" comes a show about a third-
grader who has a screwed-up life. He makes home movies
in his basement and stuff like that...
Sealab 2021- A sci-fi show(?). An update of an old
Hanna-Barbera cartoon about, from what the title is, a
lab in the ocean. Probably has stuff about fish in it.
Leave it to Brak- A sitcom. ABOUT BRAK! BRAK BRAK
BRAK!!! ALL HAIL BRAK!!!
Well, this is a 50's style sitcom about Brak's life at
home. I will be taping every single one of these.
(Thank you thank you thank you 18-49 demographic!
Thank you for "Adult Swim"!!!)
Well, there you have it. New shows, new episodes of
shows, and a show brought back from the dead. Will
"Adult Swim" be worth staying up until 1AM for? Yeah.
It has Brak for god's sake.
