General Adult Swim Discussion

[rumbatubbies-ok]

lmao, what the bleep. I wasn't complimenting you, I was saying that everyone here was getting trolled hard by arguing w/ your weird logic and stubborn attitude

But, it seems pretty obvious that you're fuckin' stupid, and not a troll at all. If "100<" means more than one-hundred dollars, why didn't you say that in PLAIN ENGLISH in the first place?

p.s. don't ever kudo me again

Adult Swim is a network, that only plays at night.

If you had ALL the paid programing on Comedy Central.
You would have a shorter time BLOCK, but you would still be an anime NETWORK.
Unless Comedy Central lets you call yourself Comedy Central.

THEN you would be correct.
But in the scenario we are actually speaking of.
You are wrong.

Why do I have to hypothetically prove your point for you, in orfer for you to realize what it is your saying?

Stop being so dumb...Please?
PLEASE?

No sir if it doesn't make the required hours then it's not a seperate network.

I've never really looked to see to Comedy Central logos are still in the corner when paid programming is airing. Maybe they aren't.

Regardless it makes more sense to say you're trying to get people to start a block.

And I would like to implore you to pull your head out of your a.ss and listen to what I'm saying.

Your plan, would cost more money than you suspect and is rather unreasonable to expect of viewers who probably don't even have the money to spare.

If that makes you a bigger fan of whatever you like then so beit. Nobody really cares what you think about them but it is ironic that you have the gal to call other people stupid.

For the record I'm not upset at all. I just type sternly I guess. 

[FinShaggy]

I figured that was plain English, it's simple math.

and here's another Kudo

[FinShaggy]

Alright.
Whatever.

You don't have to have a piece.
I got 2 years.

[Sketchor]

I look forward to seeing what you come up with in 2 years.

But hey if you come up with a concrete plan and get an anime licensor on board, I'll gladly throw in 100 dollars or even a bit more towards the cause.

Because I believe in Japanese cartoons, well... cartoons in general anyway.

[FinShaggy]

I'm only doing anime if more people get on board.
There's 2 years for people to see this, on Google and stuff...

If not enough people are down for it, I'll just do it myself, with people I know, and do a thing like BET/AS/Fx Mix with stoner **noel**

I just know that there are plenty of people **noel** about anime, to start one sooner. With more people

[predcon]

Did it occur to you to Google "anime cable channel" before touting your brilliant, million-dollar idea? There's a few operable stations up and running already. Granted, they're not "basic package" channels, but the point is that someone's already beaten you to the punch. Many times.

[FinShaggy]

Lol

This would be on comedy central.

Which most people have on basic.

And I haven't been beaten to the punch.
"The punch" is to get all these kids to stop bitchen that all they have is saturday.

[rumbatubbies-ok]

Yes, you tots pwnd erryone on this thread. Especially me, by giving me that extra kudo.

[ALchemist81]

I've just confirmed it! [as] Anime will return Feb. 11, 2012!

Take that, nay-sayers who thought we might actually lose our favorite block to Clone Wars permanently; "Feb. the 4th Be With You" is indeed a one-time thing!

[FinShaggy]

There's another for ya

If Adult Swim was going to turn off Squidbillies, and Venture Brothers, China Illonois, etc. I would throw down $100 if it could keep them all on.
That just shows how much you don't care for your own shows.

I said I'd gladly pay 100 bucks to get my favorite anime on US television.

But you're still missing the whole part about your plan requiring a lot more money than that.

We're talking thousands of dollars for the shows and however much on top of that for the air time.

The solution requires a lot more money than you seem to realize.

Really I have no pitty for the folks moaning about AS not airing enough anime but come on man, be realistic.

And taking up "paid programming space" isn't exactly going to bring a lot of new viewers to Japanese animation just like Adult Swim's 6 hours of anime doesn't do much for bringing new viewers to anime by itself.

---

Or the fact that half the live-action schlock is near zero budget? You can pay unemployed drama majors to star in these shows on the cheap. I can't imagine them going over budget.

If live-action is somehow pricier than anime then [as] has stupid accountants & budget directors. Because you could probably get volunteers to do their own shows....

Where are you gonna get the money from?

Anime licenses are pricey as all hell.

[ERASER_RAIN]

hi. im finshaggy

i dont know how televison licenseing works.

[FinShaggy]

Don't worry about where I'm getting my money.

If you want to throw down you can.

If not, there will be some other night time station in 2 years

They need ZERO nights of anime, and you guys need to go make your own channel.

I tried...

no one wants to watch shows about Pazuzu

maybe ppl would watch an anime about Pazuzu...

hmmm...Pazuzu anime

[FinShaggy]

What's pazuzu?

[Mau_Mau_Mojo]

DUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDE!!!

he's the greatest thing ever!!!!!

he's the patron demon of adequately warmed tea and human over indulgence!!

and the ancient god of crappy weather...but it's ok
because he's also the god of conveniently available umbrellas and coats!!!


Pazuzu, he'll march on a road paved with
the empty, soulless skin bags of the nonbelievers!!









i actually forgot what he was suppose to be...
I'm just making it up as i go along now...

woooooo PAZUZU!!!

[ComradeClaus]

Comedy Central, contrary to Jon Stewarts claims, isn't basic.

Basic cable only covers Ch 2-14 for a total of 11 channels.

Fox (Ch-2), NBC (Ch-3), CBS (Ch-4), ABC (Ch-5), PBS (Ch-8), TBS (Ch-9), NEWS 10, CBC (Ch-11, both on cable & analog, bless the Canadians, they swear & show boobs), WGN Ch-12 CTV (Ch-13, canada again) & Ch-14

which costs 11 dollars a month, to get comedy cental & cartoon network, you have to pay 48 a month.

[Dark_Lord_Khrima]

Actaully, either way it's a basic cable package. They're just different tiers. Premium cable refers to HBO, Starz, etc. where you have to pay extra just for their channel or package of channels.

[rumbatubbies-ok]

I have the economy package from Comcast, which has all the local channels, public access, and 10 of the most famous cable channels. I only have to pay $25/month. My package has CN and MTV, as well with the Food and Travel Channel (channels may vary depending on area).

That's about as basic as you can get.

[Mau_Mau_Mojo]

say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaat

i forgot what this post was in reference to....i forgot what this thread was about
was it about basic cable??...

[FinShaggy]

It's about the future

[FinShaggy]

So no anime lovers want to throw down,

Just so you know, this is the reason theirs no anime on TV.

I know I won't be worrying about it anymore.

[FinShaggy]

There's plenty of other stuff that could go there.
