Diamond List for January 23, 2008

[TheCorpulent1]

I haven't seen Metalocalypse, so that might be funny. The majority of the stuff I've seen on Adult Swim or advertised on Adult Swim in the last year or two looks like crap, though.

 

[PhotoJones]

Metalocalypse is okay. There a few episodes that have gotten a laugh out of me.

 

[Tron Bonne]

As long as Adult Swim keeps airing Futurama, I'll keep watching.

They actually lost Futurama, the contract expired and Comedy Central got exclusive rights to air it. It's basically been replaced with American Dad over at Adult Swim now

[PhotoJones]

What's Frisky Dingo?

 

[moraldeficiency]

What's Frisky Dingo?

It's brilliant, or stupid I can't decide but it makes me laugh. I don't know if it can really be described though, more experienced.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Hmm, sounds pretentiously highbrow.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Hmm, sounds pretentiously highbrow.

No, it's indescrible in the way an acid trip is. You've either done it and understand or you don't.

I've never seen it and I already don't understand it.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Yeah, but after all that you know you're going to watch it.

 

[BoredGuy]

I've never seen it and I already don't understand it.

Basically it's just ridiculous, in that ATHF kinda way, ya know??
The characters are ******ed, but hilarious because of it

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, but after all that you know you're going to watch it.

I'm not.

 

[moraldeficiency]

I'm not.

Liar.

 

[PhotoJones]

My TV time is being spent watching The Wire.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Seen a few episodes and it was pretty good, but I still like the Shield better.

 

[Iron_Stark]

My TV time is being spent watching The Wire.

That is a great show, unfortunatly this season is the first time I've been watching it, which happens to be the last season of the series.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

My TV time is being spent watching The Wire.

Finally. Best damn show on TV.

 

[Anubis]

Best way to discribe Frisky Dingo is, a freakish Super Villain named Killface wants to take over the world or destroy the World, hard to say really, and he is opposed by Billionaire Superhero Awesome X. From there it goes completely insane. I like Killface's son, Simon.

 

[PhotoJones]

Finally. Best damn show on TV.

Yeah, it's really, really good. I'm almost done with the first season. Genuinely gripping stuff.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Good to hear. I'm watching the Neon Genesis Evangelion series myself. It's actually a really interesting look at the human condition, in spite of appearing to be an anime about kids in giant robots fighting quasi-religious monsters on the surface.

 

[Blader5489]

Hmm, sounds pretentiously highbrow.

If anything, Adult Swim has become pretentiously lowbrow over the years.

 

[Anubis]

But then again, it was never all that high to begin with.
