A lineup of really good anime and comedy on an otherwise pretty shitty channel, Cartoon Network.
Every Saturday night I wait for Toonami to be over, then I watch Adult Swim.

Get the Adult Swim mug.
The place you go from Sunday-Thursday and Saturday night if you got nothin' else to do or got no life. Friday is taken up by some kiddie stuff on cartoon network but you can go to adult swim's website and watch episodes that will be on on Sunday.
Well, I've got nothin' else to do tonight. Time to watch some Adult Swim and get wasted.

The Australian Adult Swim is as alternative as vanilla ice-cream with nothing on it.
Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Orphen, Tenchi Muyu (or however you spell it), Bubblegum Crisis, Gonaicul (or however spelt), Home Movies, Sealab, Brak, Space Ghost, Harvey Birdman, Mission Hill. That's it. The only ones worth watching are Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Mission Hill, Brak, Sealab and Space Ghost. Nowadays, only Bebop, Trigun and Space Ghost are available from those few.

Futurama, Family Guy & Duckman should be on the Australian Adult Swim.

A show which feels the need to warn viewers of the "mature content" of Family Guy and Futurama, both of which aired prime-time on FOX.
Adult Swim may contain content that parents might not find suitable for children under the age of 14

A TV network that uses the same channel with Cartoon Network. It plays at 8:00pm to 6:00am since most kids between 7-13 years if age would normally would sleep. They play shows like American Dad!, Family Guy, Rick and Morty, Robot Chicken, etc. It always starts off playing two episodes of King of the Hill, then comes along one/two episodes of The Cleveland Show. At 11:30 pm comes an episode of Children's Hospital, and at midnight is Robot Chicken. After 1:00am is basically random shows. At 6:00am, Cartoon Network just says "YO WHATTUP YOU TIRED ASS MOTHERFUCKERS" or something like that. The show times can differ between time zones.
Kenny: Damn, there's nothing on. It's 11:36.
Bach: DUDE adult swim IS ON RIGHT NOW!

Get the [adult swim] mug.
Best time block on Cartoon Network, but
(unfortunately) the only place mainstream fans see anime other than their DVDs from the Adult Swim online store.
Adult Swim anime watchers should take a chance and buy non-dubbed, import DVDs.

A block of shows on cartoon network that are on after 11. Supposedly for adults, basically appropriate for all graduates of elementary school. Contains american cartoons, anime, and wierd shows that really creep you out (super milk-chan, robot chicken, etc.) Cartoon Network should put it on in the morning and get rid of the other BS they show.
Rurouni Kenshin should be on adult swim, it really isn't a kiddie anime.
