A block of cartoons on Cartoon Network of which 4 (Family Guy, Futurama, Sealab 2021 and Aqua Teen Hunger Force) are actually adult oriented. The anime shows are junior high school oriented material in Japan and shows that the U.S. still has a small complex about what is acceptable material in cartoons.
I watch adult swim for the hilarious U.S. cartoons, and not for the wapanese pleasing anime which they think is the Holy Grail.

A thing on Cartoon Network that is not as good as it used to be.They are putting on a bunch of live action crap.They still have good shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force,Bleach, Robot Chicken,and Shin Chan.A show that I get tired of is Inuyasha and Futurama.

A two to three-hour block on Cartoon Network that has yet to show an adult or mature cartoon.
Although the concept of Adult Swim is a fucking joke, some of the cartoons, such as Sealab and the Oblongs, are well crafted and chock full of humor.

A great late night block of shows on cartoon network. Greatly improved from when it just had anime crap.
It would be pretty damn funny if a young kid decided to stay up late watching Cartoon Network and end up watching shows like The Family Guy on Adult Swim

A block of programming on Cartoon Network that airs later at night. It features mostly funny mid-90's cartoons like Family Guy and Futurama and the rest is filled with stupid shit like anime, talking food items, and whatever other shit they can find to throw on there. Known for their 'creative' and 'cool' segues to and from commercials.
"Hey, we can't go for a run....Adult Swim is on. We'd better sit on our asses and watch this shit instead."

A new meme started on tiktok, of talking about an important topic and then adding as at the end of the video to make it look like it is one of the series on Adult Swim (the cartoon network).
You keep thinking you could’ve had so much chemistry with them...
While you should just worry about its mark.
Go study. adult swim
