The bumps keep talking about an all-adult swim network, which seems completely untenable. Their ratings for the first two hours are pretty solid, but guess what the first hour is? You got it, Family Guy and Futurama, which, as others have mentioned, they've run through about 15 times by now. I enjoy Venture Brothers and am looking forward to season two, but I never got that into ATHF, Sealab, Tom Goes to the Mayor and the other "let's just slap crazy shit together and maybe people like it" type shows. We'll see what the upcoming new shows are like, but Robot Chicken is generally pretty good, and that's the bottom line: most AS concepts work only as 15 minute shows (at best) and it's hard for them to fill the several hours they have, let alone 24 hours a day.
