I cannot find words to describe how amazing that episode was. From start to finish, just non-stop win.
It boggles my mind that Adult Swim allows such shit on their schedule like Tim & Eric and Fat Guy Stuck in the Internet after such an incredible half-hour of
comedy.
Adult Swim has been treading water for years a this point. Sometimes I think they will air anything. The Ventures Brothers is the only show I tune in for unless they're playing older Adult Swim shows (Home Movies, Mission Hill).
The whole henchmen bit was pure win. I couldn't stop laughing.
I walked out when the credits started rolling and completely spaced about remembering to watch after said credits for the conclusion. How'd they rap it up?
I think they The Monarch ended up calling 21 and 24 to pick them up at a Drop point, and was calling from an escape pod or some shit? I can't remember exactly. It's up on the adult swim fix.

That episode was so amazing. I think all of the "main" episodes are just great, but this last one just topped em all. And I think Adult Swim will just air anything as long as they have a constant stream of new episodes airing [they don't care what they are]. Otherwise how else would they let Tom & Eric go for 3 seasons is it now? I wonder if people even watch that show...

Adult Swim was made to tread water; it always has. They give a lot of shows a chance. It's why we have both Venture Brothers (whose pitch failed to get major networks attention) and Tim and Eric. While Harvey Birdman was in its prime, we had 12 oz mouse. It's always been a land of innovative shows, both in good ways and bad ways. It's just hard to know until the shows are made.
I had a friend who was a huge Tom Goes to the Mayor fan and I chalk it up to his love for Bob Odenkirk. You can see Tim & Eric around the Philly artsy-indy-college scene quite often. I just don't really get it. Bring back Space Ghost.
I liked Tom Goes to the Mayor, sure the first few episodes were slow but it started to pick up a bit towards the end. No idea why they scrapped it for the horror that is Awesome Show.
(I think every thread about a Cartoon Network show inevitably brings up bitching about Tim and Eric)
On that note, anyone impressed with Squidbillies? Same as TGTTM, the first few episodes bored me but the last, uh, season and a half? Fucking hilarious.
Squidbillies rocks.
It's even funnier when you've lived around hillbillies at some point in time.
Oh no! My Truck-boat-truck!
Tim and Eric disturbs me, they said it is a result of watching TV 24/7 over a long period of time, and then regurgitating the shit that sticks in their heads...
Show of hands, who peed in the water?
Ok then, we're going this way.
dbl post >.>
lmfao best episode this season, i was laughing so hard i had to watch it 3 times to get evrything that was in it! I GOT THE DART MONKEY ON ME BACK!!!!!
on a side note, sam jack was the shit, wish they would bring it back
Isn't the creator of samurai jack dead or something?
Not the creator, everyone involved in the production is alive and well.
Except for the guy who voiced Aku. He's dead.
Sooo yeah there won't be more Samurai Jack unless they spin off the main story. Kind of hard to find someone who can do the Aku voice as perfectly and without that you lose the heart of the show.
The guy that voiced Aku (Mako) has such a distinctive voice, no one else can compare. He also did Uncle Iroh in Avatar: The Last Airbender, who was a kickass character.
The guys that did Samurai Jack have been busy with Clone Wars/Clone Wars movie for the last few years I think.
