Worst Person Ever

Home Movies is basically the only show on Adult Swim I can stand anymore. I've basically seen every episode of Family Guy and King Of The Hill.. and those were the only other shows I cared to watch. Robot Chicken, Squidbillies, and Superjail fucking suck!

You.... take that back.

Robot Chicken is hillarious and although I'll admit Squidbillies is a bit annoying at times and is waaaay over-advertised it's pretty darn funny.

I do miss the older line ups though. Tim and Eric, Tom Goes to the Mayor, Harvey Birdman, Spaceghost... all those shows don't seem to come on anymore.

I also liked that show Delocated, I wish it would have ran longer.

Wrong, right and wrong.

Robot Chicken is hit or miss sometimes but when it hits it's awesome, Superjail never fails to entertain me though, it's so goddamn insane, I love everything about it, the animation is especially above par for an adult swim show. I hope it sticks around.

But I at least agree with you on Squidbillies, I hate that show and have never found it remotely funny.

There are some sh*tty shows like all the live action shows (Sean of the Mole Men, Fat Guy Stuck on Internet. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr) as well Stoker and Hoop, Assy McGee, Drinky Crow and Xavier. I can't believe such vile crap is still on the air. I'm also not a Tim & Eric fan. I understand that it's supposed to be surreal and random but I still don't find it funny.

But King of the Hill, Home Movies, Robot Chicken, Superjail, The Venture Bros, The Boondocks, Metalocalypse, Aqua Teens, Harvey Birdman, Morel Orel. I think they have a great choice of anime too (tideous Inuyasha repeats aside).

I am kinda burned out on Family Guy though. If only because I've seen every episode a billion times.

No tv network is perfect, but adult swim comes a lot closer to perfection than any other network I can think of.

I can tolerate small doses of King of the Hill, but sometimes its just plain annoying... and I only wanna hear the word "propane" every now and again, not fifty million times an episode.... we get it.... Hank Hill is a propane salesman...

QFT. Mao did a pretty good job too, though maybe not with such sinister motives.

I forgot about the brutality that was Josef Stalin... and the funniest thing about him was the warm teddy bear look he had about him... just seeing a pic of him, you wouldn't think he performed mass genocide on a scale of tens of millions... he really was an evil bastard, wasn't he?

Hank is probably my least favourite character on the show but do all the secondary characters really make up for that. Dale, Boomhauer, and Bill are quite possibly some of the best support characters ever written. One exchange in dialogue that stands out in particular is in the episode where Dale had an accidental discharge at the gun club and fell into a depression, the exchange goes something along the lines of:

Peggy: Now we all know that a gun is nothing more than a penis substitute and with Dale losing his Presidency at the gun club Dale lost his...

Bill: PENIS!

There's just something in the way that he shouts it out all enthusiastically that makes me crack up every time I hear it. Also the group of rednecks that got introduced in some of the later seasons (most of them voiced by Country singers, Tom Petty being one of them) had one of the best lines after his truck covered in chrome got laughed at

Lucky: "Sometimes the world is so cruel to shiny things"

Then there was another one when he was dating Luanne and she was defending his truck:

Luanne: "Don't you laugh, I call her Pretty Pretty Truck Truck"

But yeah I agree that Hank was probably one of the most annoying characters on that show.

Anyways back to the topic at hand, I still think that former Romanian leader Nicolae Ceauşescu is one of the worst people in the world, and the fact that he was beheaded by his own people then had his head used as a soccer ball backs up my statement.

Well, yeah, having your countrymen use your head for a soccer is no sign you did wonderful things for the country.... he must certainly have been quite dispicable...
