What's the worst show on Adult Swim?
 
question says it all. Not everything is on the list. I left out the ones that I feel are ok to good. Poll coming soon.

i havent seen all of those, but im pretty sure its not 12 oz mouse or tom goes to the mayor

squidbillies and stroke and hoop were awful. moral orel and minoriteam are just blah bleh bleh

Xavier...etc...What a fucking piece of shit.

sonic sphere 01.07.2008 08:25 AM

When I read the name of this thread I think about a mid-90's band callled Animals That Swim.

There's so much crap there that it's tough to decide.

I haven't seen all of those so I don't know. But I do know that japanese animated shows have shitty intros.

Everyneurotic 01.07.2008 12:06 PM

how much time do you have? i think the last good one they did was harvey birdman.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 01.07.2008 12:10 PM

I don't watch all the shows. Some of them I can't even make it through a commercial for the show.

I turn Adult Swim on as background noise.

Cantankerous 01.07.2008 05:12 PM

they all suck save for astro boy, futurama, and family guy. ESPECIALLY all the fucking anime!

Rob Instigator 01.07.2008 05:16 PM

Anime is anime is anime. (Well Shin-chan is pretty funny, and I liked Cowboy Bebop, but they are rare exceptions.)

Some of their original programming though is awful, it is like there is nobody shooting down bad ideas there.

Adult Swim guy! "Let's make a cartoon completely about people made out of poop, and all make them talk like black people!"
Executive "that's more offensive than Minoriteam and more repulsive than Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job. Sounds like a great idea, I'm fast tracking it."

Cantankerous 01.07.2008 05:39 PM

oh cowboy bebop is great. shin chan is weird.

davenotdead 01.07.2008 06:16 PM

for the record, Harvey Birdman and Aqua Teen Hunger Force are two of the greatest shows ever. The first couple seasons of Family Guy were good, all Futurama is good. the new family guy shit is beyond awful, its cringe-worthy in fact. its like they know that they are so 'controversial', so they just try to make the most perverted stuff they can nowadays, and they are just copying the same jokes/stunts and all college-age, frat boys, and teens are eating it up its disgusting.

There is some stuff on Family Guy that makes me laugh still. On one new episode, Peter is on a game show named "Björk or Bobcat," where you have to decide if an audio clip is Bobcat Golthwait or Björk. That was pretty funny I thought.

The thing with Family guy is that the show is almost all one-liners.

A great and underappreciated Cartoon is Home Movies, because the plot of each episode plays a big role in the comedy. Coach McGuirk is funny because he's so pathetic, not because he makes tons of pop culture references.

LittlePuppetBoy 01.07.2008 07:04 PM

I don't know any of these shows

That is a funny ass show, but all others are lame. The least lame would be moral orel.

ZEROpumpkins 01.07.2008 07:26 PM

Family Guy, if it's still on there. That show is sooooooo old!

Alex's Trip 01.07.2008 07:29 PM

I like Assy McGee. Hilarious.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 01.07.2008 07:44 PM

I also like the shows Big O and Trigun. But that's it.
