Thread: New Adult Swim Saturady Line-Up

When does it begin? 'Cause animeontv.com shows the same list as last week for this week. Nice if IY is finally back at a reasonable time. Don't miss Castle of Cagliostro (Lupin III) at 6:20 PM ET on Encore Action (Ch 149 or 152 on Comcast here in SE Pa) on Thursday May 1st. Thanks for the info. Code Geass is supercool. Toodles-K&K

PS- ComcastOnDemand/Free Movies/M-Z is showing an old Speed Racer animated flick complete with vintage tv ads. It's about The Car Hater and of course a rad car race. SFN and SYS-K&K

PPS- Just found out that Castle of Cagliostro is on tonight at 1:30 AM ET (Thursday AM early) and again tomorrow at 9:20 AM ET on WAM (Ch 134 on Comcast here) and at 6:20 PM Thursday on Encore Action (Ch 152) and again that same day at 7:20 PM on EA (Ch 149). A romantic tale about a thief and a princess. Enjoy it if ya can. Toodles-K&K

That's a line up that will put anime lovers on the wake up train.

Now that i don't know. I saw it last night on AS. it looked like it would be the same commercal when they say they are condsidering new lineup ideas but then it says "but we ignored them..." and they showed the schedule and i was in such a panic to memorize the lineup before it cut off that i didn't get to see when it would stop. I was ready to go online the next day and make a thread out of it, but the commecial should come back on tonight and I'll make sure I get it because I can't find any mention of when the new lineup will start, or even the new lineup in general online.

Probably the new season in June since May is 'sweeps' month which is why we get all the crappy stuff on AS weeknights. Hope IY is back 'cause Mom misses it. We all do. Seen Black Lagoon on Mondays at midnight on StarzEdge (Ch 371 here on Comcast in SE Pa) yet? Tell me, Angels fans- doesn't Revy remind ya of someone? Sister Edda too? Toodles-K&K

What's sweeps? I've never understood that so can someone explain it to me?

OK- in tv jargon 'sweeps' month is May. That's when all the programs which have good viewership are replaced by the really crappy shows which the networks are trying to save from the ax. Then when the new season starts the good shows come back and the shows saved during sweeps are rescheduled for viewing. In anime this means that in May daily AS on CN is mostly if not all comedy anime like Harvey Birdman, Assy McGee, ATHF, Boondocks, etc. In June who knows what we'll get. We can always hope- and of course wait. Hope this clears things up for ya, Jokerman. Toodles-K&K

If you know how to read the AS schedule, you'll see that's not what's happening.
