A block of shows on Cartoon Network that are rated PG or above. A great block to watch if you're tired of cartoons for kids.
Adult Swim is my favorite block of programming on CN and I tape all the new stuff.

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.

Not a damn cartoon show. more for the adults that actually have a life and a swimming pool. adult swim is the act that takes place after all the kids are in bed asleep, and the beer has been flowing.
hey baby the kids in bed asleep. you ready to head out to the pool for a little adult swim?
