I watch a little of it when I am up that late.


Love Robot Chicken.

Loved Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law

Laughed at Moral Orel.

Never liked Aqua Team Hunger Force

and Xavier Renegade was just to weird.

ATHF is great but has slipped quite a bit the last few seasons. 

Robot Chicken is pretty consistently awesome - this sketch is my favorite of the new batch:

Sealab 2021 and Frisky Dingo are both hilarious. 

Birdman is hit or miss but often very funny.  And Superjail is just too [dang] bizarre to not keep watching.

Don't like Moral Orel much though, and anything by Tim and Eric is just atrocious.  Don't know how they keep getting shows.

Harvey Birdman is my absolute favourite, followed by Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Robot chicken is a bit hit 'n' miss for me, though I must say it does have some great sketches.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
The Venture Brothers and Frisky Dingo have sustained a phenomenal level of excellence.  I think that the Venture Brothers is one of the top 3 shows on television right now.

Aqua Teen, Sealab 2021, Metalocalypse, and Harvey Birdman all had great starts and then began to lag, but overall have been great shows.

Never liked anything with Tim and Eric, Assy McGee, Saul of the Molemen, or Xavier.

Home Movies and Lucy: Daughter of the Devil are both inspired.  Anything with H. Jon Benjamin is going to be pretty good.   

Boondocks is ok...honestly I don't really have the attention span to care about it all that much. 
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

I dont watch Adult Swim as much as I used to, but I must say, there are some strange shows within that late night block, lol. The Squidbillies and SuperJail has to be the strangest shows to ever air on national television, lol.

I like to keep it simple. King of the Hill, Family Guy, The Boondocks, and Robot Chicken (sometimes), are really the only shows that I watch regularly. Robot Chicken usually has like 3 funny sketches (out of like 20) an episode, which is really hit and miss.

Moral Orel had one funny episode, I think it was the turn the other cheek one. Pretty funny.

I love Tony Allen!

I'll be honest... I do not like a lot of Adult Swim stuff... Most that I watch wasn't adult swim in the first place (Family Guy and King of the Hill). Robot Chicken is very hit or miss. It can be awesome and really dumb at the same time (or maybe I just don't get it all the time haha).

However, I am a HUGE fan of "The Boondocks." The episode with Ann Coulter as a laid back lady in real life and a psycho nutcase as an act was amazing... Highly recommend that show.

Oh man, how did I forget Venture Brothers?  Somebody deduct me a TP for that one.  Squidbillies and Boondocks are usually good too.

Unfortunately I don't watch Adult Swim regularly, but I'd say The Boondocks, Robot, Chicken, and Moral Orel. You guys should pay attention to Moral Orel it's hilarious, and really underrated, IMHO.

ATHF is the bomb, along with Robot Chicken
Sealab 2021 is pretty awesome, and Boondocks is a racial comedy, but still funny
Squidbillies is ridiculously funny...

Tom and Eric is garbage, Home Movies is my least favorite. Harvey and Birdman is a mix for me, Morel Orel is not funny, and Venture Bros isn't either, but most importantly is the mix of random japanamations on late at night. There are too many to keep up with and there is WAY too much "story line" in there along with the usual of too much talking. So yeah, all those late night animes are junk.

I forgot about the old school King of the Hill, which I grew up watching.
Can't stop, Rondo!

I only watch King of the Hill and Family Guy.  The only other one I've really seen is Robot Chicken.
