    Lupin III Episode 3, "to Be or Nazi Be," Will NOT Air!

    Like This Thread!
    It's sad. A real shame too.

    So is William Street saying the reason they could not air more Lupin episodes was because they were not offered to contract to air more episodes...

    By the way, Ep 03 of Lupin was released one of the DVDs, not first one, but one of them, I am just not sure which one.

    Ep. 3 was out with volume 5.

    This is the second occassion that Kim Manning said that the reason no new episodes of Lupin will air on adult swim is because they weren't offered to them.

    A few months ago she said that if Geneon were to offer new episodes of Lupin, adult swim would get them.

    Uhh, what are they airing then? They had [comment removed because of advance schedule information], episode 3 of which is being labelled a premiere. Gold Smuggling 101 has moved back to its original production order of #5. What does that look like to you?

    I'm not calling you a liar, I'm just questioning Kim Manning.

    That's funny, I remember Geneon at a convention saying they DID offer new episodes of Lupin and Adult Swim did NOT get them.

    Too bad, but I don't think it's anything to cry about. It's not like it would a great episode. Personally, I'd prefer another 13 episodes.

    My thoughts exactly. Seems like bull, but if it doesn't air, Lupin fans will go up in arms I'm sure.

    Manning probably doesn't want people to know that CN will be airing a show with Nazis on it. There's got to be a reason why this is premiering at 5 AM. They want to air it once under the radar to meet contractual obligations and never air it again. Get out your VCRs.

    It's not like they can sell them back.

    I'm confused. Was it Pioneer who didn't want to distribute it, or was it Adult Swim who didn't want to air it?

    You're not alone...

    Kim Manning claims that Geneon never offered the episodes to AS, but Geneon claims to have offered AS more Lupin episodes, but were turned down.

    It boggles the mind.

    It appears someone is lying.

    I think the bottom line is the show just wasn't pulling the ratings it needed.

    Which is hard to understand, but what can you do.....

    An average of 255,000 at the 1:30 a.m. slot for repeats is not something to sneeze at.

    Maybe it is: "They wouldn't offer the show [for less than $X]," vs. "They wouldn't accept the show [for more than $Y],"

    There are better ways to communicate that. Is there some PR reason the parties feel the need to place blame on the other party?

    ETA: If the cards were to be believed (heh) WS considered Lupin reruns to be "bombing".
