Green and Senreich's stop-motion animation 'Robot Chicken' has been given the greenlight for another two seasons. The late night pop culture enema will return for a fifth and sixth season, eager to maintain its place as Adult Swim's highest rated original series.

By Andrew B It’s time now for an Anime Full Circle news update.

By Danny Gallagher I can't imagine the amount of tireless work and toil that goes into a stop-animation show like Robot Chicken, but I can imagine the feeling of heaviness on the animators' shoulders when they realize they have a 40 episode order ahead of them. That's because as a young boy, John Goodman once f...

This renewal will bring the show into a fifth and sixth season.

By joey4bryant In the United States, the cartoon was on tv from Mar twenty-eight, 1999 to August ten, 2003 on Fox before the show was discontinued. Futurama was then placed in reruns on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network, from January 2003 to Dec 2007, when the station’s contract expired. It was brought back in 2...

By jimmybing I like Adult Swim, but some of their shows (I’m looking at you, Aqua Teen Hunger Force) seem like they’re geared more toward being as wacky and zany as possible than they are at making any sort of sense. Wacky is good, but when not taken in moderation it gets old quick. From what I’ve seen so far, A...

By Nick Zaino Robot Chicken is its own bizarre, wonderful little world, usually coming to you 15 minutes at a time on Adult Swim. It always seemed to me a show that probably only worked in small doses, but Robot Chicken: Season Four on DVD was consistently funny over two discs of near-continuous watching...

By John Scott Lewinski The appropriately named Bif Bang Pow!, a collectibles manufacturer, announced today a deal with Cartoon Network to make a new line of toys based on the Adult Swim animated comedy. Fans can look for a collection of action figures, bobble heads, vehicle models and other goodies.

By Annie Wu S04E08) My heart is all aflutter. Talk about ending on a high note (Venture Bros. will return to finish the season in a few months, Lost-style). Just like "The Better Man," this Doc Hammer-penned episode was the perfect balance of great story and VB's signature comedy. There were so many great...

By Jonathan Toomey However, last night's companion episode was anything but that.

By Annie Wu S04E07) Wow. And wow again.

By Scott Thill There will be no such lag time with Gervais and Merchant’s Office, which is one of the funniest television shows of the 21st century.

By Scott Thill I won't dispute that Adult Swim has ruled late-night television since 2001, when it first dropped -- along with Underwire's jaw -- after screening the first few episodes of the brilliant Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law.

By Karl Olson Adult Swim originals, even to this day, are often exceedingly low-budget affairs with stiff-as-a-board, Flash/After-Effects animation. Sure, there are a few highlights like the visually rich Boondocks and co-productions like Family Guy and American Dad, but the 11-minute shows do...

By cbrodesser@adage.com (Claude Brodesser-Akner) LOS ANGELES (AdAge.com) -- Cartoon Network's Adult Swim has tossed away two brand new episodes of Aaron McGruder's animated series, "The Boondocks," possibly for over-the-top mocking of network executives at BET.

By Jonathan Toomey Wait a second... I'm going over this whole series in my my mind. Did we just get a continuation of a story line?

By Adam Finley I realized while watching it that Adult Swim hasn't had a series with that kind of substance in a long time. Series like Baby Blues and Home Movies have been replaced by weird post-modern fare like Aqua Teen Hunger Force* and the works of Tim and Eric, with very little programming left with an...

By Adam Finley The first season of The Powerpuff Girls comes out on DVD June 19.

By Adam Finley In my last review I said that Moral Orel would benefit tremendously by being a half-hour, rather than an eleven-minute, show. Creator Dino Stamatopoulos has said the same thing in interviews. There's simply too much subtext to cram into such a short amount of time.

This year, my favorite joke was played by the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim (a nighttime showing of made-for-adult cartoons and anime.) One very special cartoon is called Aqua Teen Hunger Force. On April 13, the "Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters" will play.

By Adam Finley If you weren't watching Adult Swim last night at 10:00 p.m., then you really missed out.

By Adam Finley Tom Goes to the Mayor began as a couple short short films on creators Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim's Web site, and even then it was obvious that not everyone was going to be into it.

By Adam Finley Filed under: OpEd, Animation, Adult Swim Are you metal? I don't mean are you made of a durable alloy of some sort, I mean do you RAWK* in every conceivable way that one can RAWK?

By Annie Wu S02E04) Reason #528 to love Doc Hammer: He wrote the most bizarre Venture Bros. episode ever. Oh, man. I think I have a new favorite episode.
