@Beary @X 2 X Good night you two, I probably won't turn up for the Samurai Jack marathon, so I'll see you in two weeks!

Wait, is Bato really married or is that some kind of cover story?

Its a cover story.

Though the Major is his cover, that's pretty funny. tongue

So weird question, but with the critical and ratings success of Samurai Jack, what other shows do you guys think would make for interesting revivals?

#37956: May 23rd 2017 at 7:33:45 PM

Ones that are actually possibe? Because I genuinely want a Symbiotic Titan revival though I know it won't happen.

Samurai Jack was successful right?

Like can I get some ratings or statistics or something?

[up] Up on it's wikipedia page it shows it averaged about 1.35 million viewers every week.

We can rule out Hey Arnold, Invador Zim, and possibly Rocko's Modern Life, since those are all getting revivals.

It and Megas XLR I'd love to see brought back, but they got written off as a tax loss. Unless there's some loophole, it'd be slim. :/

Three weeks late, but this is a thing. (Audio warning for those with more sensitive ears.)

The song mashup has been a meme since this time last year, but then Scaramouche came along and...

Anyway, to everyone who's here for the marathon, enjoy!

If anyone is going in blind to Attack on Titan this season, try to avoid Toonami's episode promo for Episode 6. They pretty blatantly spoil some heavy shit.

A repost from the Samurai Jack thread, but regarding the weekend marathon's ratings awhile back:

  • 11:00 Samurai Jack (r) 1,031,000 total viewers/ 0.47 rating in 18-49 demo
  • 11:30 Samurai Jack (r) 939,000/ 0.42
  • 12:00a Samurai Jack (r) 888,000/ 0.40
  • 12:30a Samurai Jack (r) 843,000/ 0.39
  • 1:00a Samurai Jack (r) 786,000/ 0.37

  • 1:30a Samurai Jack (r) 841,000/ 0.42
  • 2:00a Samurai Jack (r) 784,000/ 0.36
  • 2:30a Samurai Jack (r) 704,000/ 0.32
  • 3:00a Samurai Jack (r) 681,000/ 0.32
  • 3:30a Samurai Jack (r) 642,000/ 0.28

While nowhere near the first run's peak ratings, this was very impressive for a Memorial Day filler marathon (on par with One-Punch Man's Labor Day and Parasyte Thanksgiving marathons). Even more impressively, it outrated the current Toonami programming in every timeslot.

Thats good, but now let's hope that opening the block with reruns for the next eleven weeks doesn't backfire like when they tried it with Attack on Titan

To this day I still think of Scaramouche as the Pied Piper of Stealth Rock.

It was, but at about the latter part it was kinda a mix of both, which sounded a bit gibberish-y.

And man Freiza's an idiot. I'd feel more sorry for Tagoma if he wasn't y'know... a bad guy.

Today's word: Salubrious.
