Put them with American Dad! and Family Guy and you got yourself a FOX Animation block on Adult Swim! What do you think?

AS never had The Simpsons in the first place to acquire back. Also, Comedy Central will have the rights to Futurama for a while.

Oops, I meant if Turner bought The Simpsons?

I'd be glad if they got them then you could do a MacFarlane,Greoning two hour block every night.
Because truthfully the only different shows AS will put on now is their own self made stuff,and I for one am sick of that crap.
And don't point out that I didn't mention Shin Chan because I'm aware I didn't list it,also I exclude Robot Chicken from the crap list.
But really,how much ATHF,Inuyasha,and especially Saul and The Mole Men and Tim and Eric can you possibly need to see? Enough is enough already.

Futurama had a great run on [as]
time to let it go Comedy Central
I think it compliments South Park very well
hmmm, the Bender-Cartman Hour:lol:

If The Simpsons came to Adult Swim, it will take up a lot of the early hours of the lineup and leave no room for other shows.:(
It would probably get 3 or 4 time slots a day compared to Futurama's two slots a day.

Futurama isn't leaving comedy central for a while once it gets on
I would say yes to the simpsons for CN, but not Adult Swim.

I've probably seen every episode of ATHF a hundred times and I still laugh at every episode when it re-airs. It's one of the best shows ever in my opinion. I would hate for them to take the re-runs off.
And Saul is only re-running for the first time ever so you can't complain about people not needing to see that anymore.

Yeah,I still like ATHF but I have a few DVD's to get me by,and SOTMM is just one of those shows that I can't stand so it's all personal bias on my part.

I have to agree with the naysayers. Two of Fox Shows would keep [as] from showing already limited time for comedy original or less known comedies like Shin-Chan, action especially anime and dare I say it original action shows, and live . . . . Wait if it could get rid of life action maybe, but knowing my luck, it would just eliminate good animes for recent episodes of the Simpsons. So, I have to say no to Fox Power Hour on [as].

The Simpson's will never be on Adult swim, FOX would never sell there longest running show, they wont even let it be on FX (there cable network). The Simpsons is soon going onto its 400th episode, they spend nearly a million dollars an episode now. and To tell you the truth even if fox was ever going to sell the rights to the show, I really don't think any tv network could afford it.

The Simpsons would work since they have over 400 episodes and they're still making more. But, Futurama only has about a hundred or so, and they've rerun them all to death. It's time to let it go.
