1. I Use To Love It
Now, most of their shows are completely devoid of any wit. It's all over the top cartoon violence.

Bring back Birdman, Sea Lab, and the Venture Bros.

3. Although it started going down hill at the end I really miss Sea Lab.

2. I loved the old Adult Swim
I was watching the first night it aired. Nowadays, most of the "comedy" stuff is... blagh. And I don't watch dubbed anime, but some of the series they're aired lately are really meh compared to the ones they've shown before.

5. I don't usually watch dubbed anime, but Code Geas has become my guilty pleasure, my Dawson's Creek.
I love Tim & Eric's Awesome Show Great Job. My wife and I just laugh and laugh when we watch that show.

6. I watched Geass subbed as it came out
I really liked the first season. Second season turned into a trainwreak but I kept watching anyways, so I suppose it's my guilty pleasure too. But as fun as Geass can be, it's not on the same league as Eva, Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal, etc.

Adult Swim shoulda gotten Gurren Lagann

9. When I used to do laps at lunch
it was the only way to go. Kids just pee in the pool and worse.

11. I love Adult Swim!
It's more miss than hit, but the hits... Aqua Teen Hunger Force is unmissable, just pure dada. Drinky Crow is excellent. The Venture Brothers is hilarious. I like that they had the good taste to rerun Look Around You as well. Adult Swim is a-ok with me.
