| Is it just me or did you leave out all the best parts of Adult Swim (the comedy shows)? |

The comedy is not the best part of adult swim. Its the anime. Thats where you can get it mostly un-cut. Which is good. I know the comedy is great, but one cannot dis the anime. It must exist forever.

Nobody's dissing the anime.
And as long as a show is "great", I don't care where it comes from.
And you shouldn't, either.

Yeah, besides, a Toonami channel would be based on action, not comedy. So that would just make it another cartoon network if you added in comedy shows.

Straight up comedies would be out of place on a Toonami network. The Adult Swim portion would be aciton. There are more back logged show in action and they have a considerably larger amount of episodes compared to every comedy except Futurama, Family Guy, and Home Movies.
Thus no comedies. There would still be plenty of Comedy on CN's AS though. Maybe more so even.

There would be two adult swim's...
adult swim on Cartoon Network and adult swim on Toonami.
Think of it as when comedy was Sunday and action was Saturday. They were both Adult Swim but they had different presentation and had different shows.

| Personally instead of calling it adult swim I'd just call it midnight run. |

Ok this is getting quite confusing. I appologize for accusing people of dissing the anime. [I can't beleive I used the word "dis"...] But, yes, comedy would not be good on Toonami if it was a show focused just on comedy. Obviously, a comedic supplement is great for any show as it keeps it moving and stops it from becoming too heavy or depressing. As far as the double adult swim thing goes, I am not even gonna get into it. It hurts my mind.

That could work, but then I'd have to bump back Inuyasha an hour... I guess INU could air before that with warnings.

How about they call it the "11:00 Run" and keep Inuyasha where it is? It sounds stupid, I know, but still- its the only thng I can think of working unless some people would just stop worrying about what its called and keep it as the Adult Swim block.

Or you could have a catchy name like "The hour before dawn." Or "11 o clock is cooler than 12 o clock," which is pathetically stupid.
