Welp. Adult Swim saved this show from an eternal abyss of TV limbo. So, a new season is going to be made. Along with "No squiggle" animation. WOO!! So....with it premiering in about a month....

anyone seen the new character designs yet? I can imagine they'de simply be "smoot edged", but still..I'd like so see them....

I think they have clips on adultswim.com.

I've seen the clips, and to be honest, they look the same. In one of them Brendon's nose looks smaller, but I'm not sure if its the camera angle or a change in design. Other than that, it looks fine with the solid lines.

i think the "no squiggle" would make it look a little better but then again that was its trademark! but i guess they are keeping the hands the color of the shirt right? i think there was a cartoon by the same cartoonist of home movies on the "what a cartoon show" and he goes on a date and later eats the table....

I say as long as it has the same hillarious and smart dialouge they could use stick figures and it'd still be good. When it first aired on UPN, I couldn't watch it because I didn't like it biut now that I'm older I SEE WHAT i was missing. What other shows do you think Adult Swim could bring back from Limbo ? I'd love to see Dilbert make a return. I Loved that show.

They could also bring in some animated shorts on the net as well, and if they test well could turn them into series. Man Adult Swim has endless possiblities.

I just wanted to welcome you Chris Sanders MSX. You wouldn't happen to be the same MSX from the CNX Revolution Boards, now would you?

Back on topic, I'm glad they're getting rid of the "Squigglevision" look. It didn't help the show at all.

Actually, I believe that was just a coincidence concering the animation. John McIntyre (a director on "Rocko's Modern Life" and "Dexter's Lab") created that cartoon, and to my knowledge, has never worked on "Home Movies".

Dilbert would be a good one to see. God, the Devil and Bob would also be a welcome treat on Adult Swim. And the Critic and Dr Katz would also be very welcome, especially if they added another night or two of programming.

"I just wanted to welcome you Chris Sanders MSX. You wouldn't happen to be the same MSX from the CNX Revolution Boards, now would you?"

The one and Only. I'm trying to get a feel for this palce before we all move here, by next year. I don't want to come in like some newbie mess'n things up. Anyway back on topic..

I saw an Ep. of God ,The Devil and Bob and It was the one where God told Bob the meaning of lfe, but we didn't getto here it due to a train. That made me mad. I wanted to know ! I think they should have a Show called Re-Hash where they give The SGC2C and Sealab Treatment to random Hana-Barbera Classics.

I'd watch that. Start with Yogi Bear. (No reason in particular; I think it would be fun.)

I'd love to see the new Yogi Bear cartoons on Adult Swim, continuing the redone style they started in those new shorts they made a couple years ago. It had a very Ren and Stimpy feel to it.

Well, the same guy who did (okay, started) Ren & Stimpy, John Kricfalusi, did the short! I wonder if there's a chance in hell he can make more with the classic H-B characters!

...nah.

Why do you say "Nah?" I've been wondering why we never saw more new Yogi shorts...

I don't think that J. K. did the last short...
The one when they spoofed "when animals attack"...
I thought that that one was hilarious and animated really well...
The Ripping Friends are pretty cool, too!

Honestly, new Yogi shorts done by John K. would be really, really cool. But... John K. can be a pretty demanding guy and is notorious for missing deadlines, so there are few people who want to work with him. I don't know how he and Cartoon Network got along, but the Yogi shorts missed their deadlines too, if I recall...

Anyone know?
