I live in the philippines so i hate how they cancelled adult swim after 2007. Plus they never aired popular shows like venture bros and metalocalypse. This is why adult swim is so special to me.
I've never understood the claim that "The Dawn is Your Enemy" was to scare kids to keep them from watching [adult swim] considering it aired at the changeover to CN, in other words, when kids SHOULD start watching. It just seems to me as saying 'the dawn is your enemy' because [adult swim] ended at dawn, therefore it was the enemy of [as] viewers.
Right I never understood that either, to me it always made more sense that AS just gets a kick out of fucking with their late night viewers, esp the ones tripping on shrooms or acid lmao
I don't think it was. I always took to me mean if you were up long enough to see that bumper it IS dawn. and assuming you had it on all night it;s to late to go to sleep (thus the eyes on the top, they are sleep deprived. Most of the time when i watched It I was an older teenager and I had work in the morning and i was unable to sleep. tossing and turning watching AS. until finally the bumper came. I could Sleep until 7am or stay awake. Either way, it's no sleep. Throughout the day "The Dawn was my enemy". and the sun is just there smilin' because the "Day" doesn't give a shit 😂
You are my favorite Adult Swim reviewer on RU-vid, mostly because you are one of the few who appreciates the masterpiece known as Robot Chicken! So many people just brush it off as pointless crap where they do nothing but make cheap edgelord jokes about kid's shows, you and I both realize it's way better than that 😂.
@@ZeroOmenshow are you doing welcome back I love the first adult swim iceberg I enjoyed it and couple days ago it was my 24th birthday I was just 24 years old and I love watching your videos about adult swim iceberg
I actually do remember that thing about the exploding props gag from ATHF. I swear I remember seeing a video or episode which featured it, they formally acknowledged why their stuff was exploding and frylock mentioned because everything was actually cloned and highly unstable. I have no clue where I saw it but I distinctly remember watching it before, very recently too.
Aw hell yeah! I liked to watch the old Adult Swim iceberg video every Sunday while I close at work. Guess I'll be starting that back up but with this one!
I know the AS message board isn't coming back but....AS Discord Server? I think it'd be pretty sweet! Also, useful if they wanted to retry the ARG thing. I was really into it before it stopped.
any of y’all ever watch Freaknik? it was a special on adult swim and i remember enjoying it but i haven’t meet anyone who’s watched it. it had this ghost with a chain named Freaknik and it was a musical about a hip hop festival
You’re very good at your personal stuff/opinion/straight info balance. You provide enough context, and relatability without making me skip during an overexplantion of your neighbors sega when you were 7.
I’m so sad korgoth of barbaria wasnt picked up. I do think a revival of the show could actually work now. I think adult swim has plenty of resources compared to before.
Oh, right, there is a thing I thinkyou should have put here. The game Poker Night features Brock Samson from Venture Bros. It's funny to see him interact with Claptrap and GLaDOS
Haven’t watched the video yet but I hope the “We Will Kill You” bumps from 2003 were included here. Probably a layer 7 or 8 since i guess not many people know or remember them
"The Dawn is your enemy" has a meaning. It means if you stayed up and saw this bumper it's to late to go to sleep. Your eyes are going to look as tired as the eyes above the sun. and the sun is happy because the day just doesn't give a crap. Time for work.. and meet the enemy.. your day of no sleep. If you were up that late it was because you watched the shows OR you had this in the background unable to sleep.
I was watching an episode of the Boondocks when i was around 11, it was like 2 am and there was a jumpscare at the very end after the credits. ive never found anything about it but i remember it vividly, it scared the sht out of me for weeks
I feel like if Adult Swim actually picked up Problem Solverz instead of passing it down to CN, maybe the show would've actually been better. It definitely would feel at home with other psychedelic shows like Superjail and Xavier: Renegade Angel. I'm also surprised you didn't mention Max's habit of yanking AS shows from their service left and right. Just another corporate antic that makes you wish David Zaslav would just fall off the face of the earth.
considering how bad the latest Futurama season was I'm scared for the other two seasons being made. personal opinion aside my brother fell for the Adult Swim Jr. prank and thought all of them were new shows coming out. Justin Roiland has admitted a lot of nasty shit in a podcast where he basically admitted some awful "Take a Seat take a seat right over there" tier shit. hes a sick freak.
I KNOW ORPHAN FEAST!!! And I had no idea what the title was!! Just that this guy kidnapped kids and turned them into pies, getting attacked by police men and others, holy COW thank you for the title!! I kept looking up "Undertaker child pie adult game" for so FREAKING long!!!!
I wanna know if anyone else remembers this specific Adult Swim bumper of a few plush ducks that start off cute and turn evil with a musical theme playing. I can’t find it anywhere but I know it’s real
I lived in a condominium with my father. My mother was locked up at the time. So it was just me my father and my little sister. I was about 6-7 and she was about 2-3. Every night I would stay up really late and watch cartoons (or it felt late to me) I remember courage the cowardly dog would play almost as the last show before adult swim would come on. I had a little a box tv and sat in a regular plastic and metal school chair to watch Cartoon Network. Whenever adult swim came on I would switch Around the tv channels thinking I had the wrong channel. I would either turn off the tv or switch the channel or on rare occasions try to watch it. Most of the time I would only see the fry guy and the drink man and stuff. Only time I would notice the really weird stuff is if I left the tv on and crawled in my bunk bed (bed on top and couch on bottom) and fell asleep. I’d wake up in the middle of the night and see the creepy stuff and run to my tv and turn it off. My dad would leave almost every night to smoke weed or do whatever else he did so I always had the feeling of being so alone. Come to think of it I don’t even remember where my sister slept so I really was just alone with my room and the box tv watching cartoons late at night. Late night cartoons and adult swim give me the weirdest feeling.
Rest in Peace MDE World Peace, fucking amazing show with so much potential, then 2 spineless talentless idiots and a respectable comedian got jealous and tag teamed the hate train, so here’s to the independently funded season 2 coming in spring!!! MDE never dies
There was an Adult Swim Game that I really enjoyed playing when I was younger, I just can’t remember the name. My favorite was the Caligula game, but the one I can’t remember is one where you drive some sort of cart through a lab/office, and you’re hitting zombies(?) with some sort of pipe, you have to avoid hitting them with the cart otherwise you’ll break down and get caught by the zombies. It may have been a Sealab game, it had that art style, but I can’t remember it. Anyone know what I’m talking about?
There was this dubstep song that had a guy with a deep voice saying "when we get mani-pedis we make miracles together" or something like that. Someone PLEASE tell me the song name! It was during 2010 Summer and I believe the commercial was bright and colorful, specifically remember seeing yellow. Please!
I vaguely remember a show or special thing on adult swim from like 2015-2017we're a guy was in like a puppet town and he was waiting for his mom to visit and his mom was like a purse puppet and there was another scene where he's dressed up like a girl at a slumber party and says something about a fire they started and the other 2 girls were concerned and the puppets where telling him to accept his fate or somethin
2:38 yoo where did you find this version of the hsh jumpscare Ive been wanting to find it since it aired. Anytime I see the jumpscares mentioned ppl only bring up the promo interruptions, this is the first Ive seen the version that interrupts the b/w bumper lmao I strongly remember it catching my lil bro off guard
a little something to add to the adult swim x tf2 section tell tale games who work closely with valve featured Brock Sampson in a poker game 'night in the inventory 2' I always found this one random as the other characters were either valve or tt ips but the valve and adult swim collabs add context
I took it down, but a new version be available later! The video was hit by a few copyright claims. However, after re-watching the video to figure out which parts were being claimed so that I could fix them I realized that I completely rushed the project. I'm not fully happy with the final product. The video could have flowed better and it totally didn't need to be two hours long lol So, I'm working on a new version. I apologize for the inconvenience! A new VB iceberg will be up sometime in the near future!
Not a bad list, a lot of the alleged statements seem wild to me though, I just find it hard to believe most people don't remember the bumber or the winking moon, not really the kind of things you forget, thanks for making me aware or the swimwiki though.
@@vynncenttryllian9959 yeah that’s definitely part of it. Also I just feel the years whizzing by. The video shows a lot of perspective on how freaking old I am haha. Has me thinking about my mortality and hurtling towards the yawning grave.
I love the bazaar and weird stuff Adult Swim does but unfortunately I've never been able to watch that stuff other than accidentally with cable TV because it's so hard to stay up so late to see the weird bizarre stuff Adult Swim shows us viewers at that time which is such a bummer because man Adult Swim as always been good it's just been stuck in it's terrible time slot.
