Tonight, Adult Swim goes old school

Looks like January 2nd's Adult Swim schedule blends a little of the new with a little of the old - and throws in some of the incredibly old for good measure. the 11pm to midnight block is your predictable helping of Family Guy and Futurama, though they've gone ahead and flipped the two shows again. (Why do they keep mucking with this? Do the shows get muscle cramps if they aren't allowed to move ...

Full Metal Alchemist: The ultimate animated chess game?

I'm a raving fan of Full Metal Alchemist. Judging by a TV Japan poll that ranked it as the best  anime ever, this adoration is shared worldwide. And yet, at times, I've found myself growing frustrated at the pace of the show. The last episode on Adult Swim that I felt moved along at a pace pleasing to my Western, ADHD-addled brain was "Theory of Avarice", in which Ed (supposedly) ...

Full Metal Alchemist, Episode 34: Theory of Avarice

Grab a scorecard, folks. Even though a character dies at the end of this show, it's still a challenge keeping track of all the competiting interests at work. Previously, the homunculus Greed had kidnapped Al to try and pry from him the "secret of eternal life". Unbeknownst to Greed, however, military man Frank Archer has allied himself with Greed's homunculi enemies, who track down ...

Review: The Boondocks

The scene: a swanky party. Rich, white people are hob-nobbing, sipping from champagne flutes, and engaging in various other white-people activities...until Huey Freeman strolls up to a microphone and announces that "Jesus was black, Ronald Reagan was the Devil, and the government is lying to you about 9/11". After a brief silence, chaos erupts. "It can't be TRUE!!" a woman ...

Robot Chicken clip: You got Robo-served!

Work it out on the floor! This is an oldie but a goodie: a clip from an early episode of Robot Chicken that shows Voltron and his arch-nemesis Robeast in a...dance-off?

Watching Voltron get ...
