A few big updates for Adult Swim Canada. It's missing a lot of pages, but they've relaunched their website, which confirms that Rick and Morty will be debuting on Sunday, January 10 at 11:30pm. New Robot Chicken will also air that night at 10pm. The Awesomes season 3 starts at 9pm on Friday...

Rick and Morty would be a bigger hit than all of their other new acquisitions combined. Rick and Morty significantly outperforms Archer in the United States, and Teletoon has been keeping simulcast premieres for that show going for a couple of years now. It's possible that they're putting too...

Details on Adult Swim Canada's fall line-up were posted last week, although apparently there might still be some changes to come. The full schedule was pulled for unexplained reasons, but you can still view the highlights here. I'm not even going to waste my breath complaining about how...

One Piece in early prime time on Adult Swim is something I'm really, really glad to see happen. I've always felt that the show would perform well with that type of placement if it was only given the chance, but the circumstances to allow that chance just couldn't materialize. And now... it's...

Best Buy and HMV seemed to be fully stocked when I last checked, but it's entirely possible that many stores have sold out since this has proven to be unexpectedly popular. This makes me really curious about just how many copies were shipped out. If they produced a large order and actually sold...

Personally, I don't think I'll ever understand the fascination that Toonami fans have with custom intros. Showing a full opening is not always practical, but replacing it with a "custom intro" just comes off as a form of unnecessary localization to me. My mind just rejects the idea completely...

Seems that most people don't seem to mind the lack of new extras.

The second episode of Spectacular Radio is out. It still covers "Survival of the Fittest", only this time it is strictly a fan panel. Coverage on "Interactions" will start in the next episode.

If you haven't checked it out yet, the first episode of a new podcast called Spectacular Radio has launched. There will be monthly instalments of the series, one for each episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man, and Greg Weisman will be appearing in all of them. You can listen to it here. It's...

It's clear that it's not going to have any kind of impact on the future or even position of the series since the key demos are all great, but on principle it's very disheartening to see that there's a consistent drop in overall ratings when One Piece comes on. There is a clear and undeniable...

Is the audio going to be lossless? Doesn't seem to be confirmation on that. Hmm.

WHAT? Gotta look into this. EDIT: Yep. Can't tell if it's season 1 or just volume 1: http://www.amazon.it/Spectacular-Spiderman-Stagione-Non-Disponibile/dp/B00IAPK2V4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1393050139&sr=8-2&keywords=spectacular+spider-man

Manga Entertainment confirmed a while back that they had lost the rights to a few of their classic titles putting them into limbo, most notably Perfect Blue and The End of Evangelion. Speaking of which, do we know what the status of the Evangelion TV series is? Is it one of the few titles that...

AoT's entire depiction of race doesn't make any sense to begin with. They say that "different races no longer exist," but that automatically makes all but one of the characters white? And the one character who isn't white is Japanese rather than being from a region that's actually in proximity...

I wonder if "Michael" still appreciates the fact that he has been immortalized in the most heavily rewatched segment of this series. Glad that a network airing ensures that the opera fight sequence will reach about half a million fresh eyeballs. So the last we see of Vulture is him getting...
