I Watch Cartoon Network's Adult Swim More Than I Watch Cable News
Does that make me a bad person?

I love Aqua Team Hunger Force even though I have no idea about what it's about.

Number one in the hood G!

3. Birdman Is Hilarious!
Didja see the episode about the custody battle between Dr. Quest and Race? I had no idea that they were Gay.

2. It makes you a person with taste.
"Aqua Teen" took a while to grow on me - and I'm a cartoon fan - but the characters are wonderfully goofy, while maintaining their integrity. You come to know what egotistical, stupid thing Master Shake is going to do, and you love him for it.

On the other hand, "Family Guy" is the most contemptible thing I've ever seen. An assortment of rimshot jokes, a "family" that keeps snarling at one another, and that nauseating Child of Satan named Stewie...

How about the anime? Even though it's run through every episode of the series, I can't turn away from "Cowboy Bebop." It's a story that grows with each retelling. A pity the show has a definitive end, and the theatrical movie's "prequel" story didn't work.

6. Cartoon Network seems to be the only network with respect
for its audience. They bring in new stuff. They explore unproven avenues. They listen to their viewers. Best dang channel in the Hood G.

8. I'm a SeaLab 2021 fan
ATHF took a while to grow on me, but it did and I love it. Big fan of Harvey Birdman and Space Ghost as well. I miss Home Movies, too bad it was cancelled :( Anyway, Adult Swim is a great break from cable news. :)

13. You probably get more reliable news
than those that watch CNN, Fox, or MSNBC :)

14. I have the first two seasons
of ATHF on DVD, its great!

I also loved home movies and sealab aint bad. Harvey Birdman is kind hit or miss.

Sorry, but I LOVE Family Guy, its not just family sniping, you get little juicy bits that pop out of nowhere, have no relation to the plot really, but are absolutely hilarious plus its a lot like the Simpson in that it has hidden social/moral commentary.
