    How about Saturday AS again?

    Like This Thread!
    I find nothing wrong with SVES being where ASA used to be (the late part of SVES that is) but IF AS had Saturday's again what would you put?

    I think with weekdays being a free for all (mainly action at this point but that could change someday) that AS should do the Saturday action Sunday comedy split once again.

    On Saturday's I would air the season 2 Big O, FLCL, Inuyasha, and an AS action movie as the head liner with some neglected (though Kikaider wont be for long) shows to round things out. Then I'd make Sunday bascially what is always has been... home of the comedy originals! With some of the neglected shows thrown in for good measure. While weekdays would remain part aciton and part comedy. Probably about what it is right now.

    ACTION Saturdays:

    11:00 - The Big O Season 2
    11:30 - FLCL (because once a week would work quite well)
    12:00 - Inuyasha (why not? it'll be a nice head liner especially if they were new episodes)
    12:30 - Adult Swim ACTION Movie (with filler if neccesary)
    02:30 - Lupin the 3rd (put it after the movie to try and get some viewers)
    03:00 - The Big O Season 2 (replay - because once is just not enough)
    --------------------------------------------
    Below this is the "whatever action show" category but I'd PREFER not to have REIGN on it. Maybe bring back YYH or something crazy like that...
    --------------------------------------------
    03:30 - Kikaider
    04:00 - Mobile Suit Gundam: Star Dust Memory
    04:30 - Mobile Suit Gundam

    COMEDY Sundays:

    11:00 - AS Special (replace with Venture Bros. in March 2004)
    11:30 - The Brak Show / ATHF
    12:00 - ATHF / Harvey Birdman
    12:30 - Sea Lab 2021 /Space Ghost C2C
    01:00 - Home Movies
    01:30 - Home Movies
    02:00 - The Oblongs
    02:30 - Baby Blues
    03:00 - AS Special (replay)
    03:30 - AS Originals (replay)
    04:00 - AS Originals (replay)
    04:30 - AS Originals (replay)

    Sorry if that was hard to read at points. I like to be descriptive.

    Wow, another faux opinion that gives you an excuse to make another faux schedule. Surprising.

    I'd rather not see AS take a step backwards to segregation. This current mix of action and comedy together has created fans that were once exclusive or loyal to one section now more bohemian. I sure has hell wouldn't have gotten hooked on Brak if it wasn't for Big O being before it and this stunt putting it's best episodes on. Inspired marketing.

    Television Blows. So enjoy it.

    If Adult Swim ever came back to Saturday, then I would suggest keeping SVES and putting Adult Swim on at 2 am. You know, so they don't get any kids watching. I would also suggest putting something on Saturday that is a once a week thing. In other words, something like a movie.

    I don't know which is worse:

    Fantasy Schedule threads

    or

    Totally Spies threads.

    Putting movies on Saturday night (late) would probably make the most sense and would finally shut up all those kids on the AS message board.

    Well I would just do something like this:

    11:00 AS Movie
    1:00 ATHF
    1:15 HB:AAL
    1:30 SGC2C
    2:00 Home Movies
    2:30 Sealab 2021
    2:45 The Brak Show

    I'd say its definetly a possibility. Williams Street had expressed their intrest in Saturdays, and even Fridays, before. They would definetly take the chance to put Adult Swim there, if they get it.

    I think the reason it was moved from saturday, is because lot's of people are always doing things on the weekend, so just wait till sunday to start it back up.

    I wouldn't mind it being back on Saturdays though.

    That's actually a good idea because I don't want to see Adult Swim get cancelled because of some angry soccer mom.

    Your schedule gives me an idea. Adult Swim could be on at 2 am on Saturday and show a movie then, and they could show shows like ATHF, Birdman, Brak Show, Sealab and Space Ghost until 5 am or so. It would be great since it would give the 15 minute shows some rerun time.

    Saturday AS Theatre would be nice. Impossible, but nice.

    I would like to see an AS Movie on Friday or Saturday nights and then maybe show a couple shows afterwards. I don't see it happening anytime soon though.

    I would definently like AS back on saturday nights.It would probably look something like this:
    12:00:AS Night At The Movies
    1:30(Depends on how long the movie is):Some new acquisition or new episodes of any ASA series.

    Yeah but they would have to factor in there's alot of underage children(and sometimes their snooty mom's)who stay up late on that night.

    movie night would be excellent

    A Movie Night would be an excellent idea. Then we could (in theory) see things like Ghost in the Shell, Akira, Vampire Hunter D, The Last Vampire, (other familiar animes) as well as Anime that hasn't been so widely seen here in the US. Afterwards they could show reruns of shows that have since passed on (or never really took off) like the Eltingville pilot, the show with the Cake Theme song whose name escapes me at the moment, babyblues...and anythign else that strikes the fancy of the program planners.

    11:00: Adult Swim Movie. (Saturday is THE perfect night for movie premieres)
    2:00: Adult Swim Specials. (Something original to round out the night)
    2:30: Oh Canada. (The perfect transition. They're shorts, so they're good after the movie and the specials, and they're trippy to prepare for the road ahead)
    3:00: FLCL. (It's short and effed up. Perfect.)
    3:30: Reign. (THE perfect spot for Reign)
    4:00: Kikaider. (After messing up your brain, you need some sedative...)
    4:30: Mission Hill. (Because at 4:30 after a bunch of screwed up shows, Mission Hill is practically, in terms of visuals, "drinking game: the series")
    WATCH PARANOIA AGENT

    ...please?

    I've been hoping for an Adult Swim movie night for awhile. Two others they could show were the two "Far Side" movies. I can't imagine too much difficulty in getting the airing rights to those.

    Totally Spies threads, definately. You see, with fantasy schedules threads, there's some sort of serious, "logical" sense and it does bring in some good ideas that many people might like. With Totally Spies threads, it appeals to people who like to see "girls kick butt" + "Clueless" w/ a dash of "anime-inspired action" in it would look at that thread.

    Movies would be good, but much like Toonami movies, I don't see that as something that would stay on consistantly and would just be a once in awhile thing... it'd be nice to see Char's Counterattack on TV again though, even if I have the DVD.

    Though I don't think Saturday should be exclusive to either Action or Comedy (the blend all days have now is best, I thnk), I DO think that could be a good place to put new Inuyasha episodes on a one-a-week schedule like when it first started. Since I don't think it'd fit as a show towards the front on Sundays, and once-a-week can't really work that well on Mon-Thurs, Saturday seems like it would be best, if they can ever get it back. It would make sure that they would almost NEVER have too long a gap between new IY episodes, while repeats could be rotated in and out of the weekday block however they want.

    Why add another day when AS already has a shortage of new programming?
