*laughs manicaly* BWHAHAHAHA! I hope that mean's it's back on, on Toonami!
Wreck-Gar 10-21-2005 09:06 AM
This figures, as soon as I bought the DVD's. I doubt it will be back on Toonami but its wishful thinking. I still wish they'd bring Robotech back but that's even more impossible.
Lost_Cyborg 10-21-2005 01:48 PM
I'm hoping to get the DVDs at X-mas *grovels at parents' feet* I really want to see the un-edited versions. *growls at 25 min long Toonami acts*
spiked-knives 10-21-2005 03:00 PM
yes screw the sleep! show em we wanna season 3!
Rodger_Sfan 10-26-2005 05:49 PM
I ofcourse will leave it on Record while I'm sleeping and that way I won't have to miss a single episode, hey that's what I do with Samurai Champloo , S-CRY-ed and Cowboy Bebop .

YOU DUMBASS!

Yes I'm one of the three people who LIKED super milk-chan.

This is nice..but...yeah I can't do the 5 am thing anymore it seems. See...I have less than stellar grades...and it's ALL due to attendance. Even the professors basically say "No you understand everything perfectly, you're just lazy" (heavily paraphrasing here). So now if anyone claims that when I say "It's not aptitude so much as application" I'm lying...they're also calling at least one professor a liar also. Which...is...a plus I guess?

That's where they stick (most of) the shows they could care less about.

It's not really a true return to AS. I hardly consider the 5 am timeslot a good thing. When/if it goes back to the somewhere in the 1-1:30 area I'll probably dutifully go back to the AS boards to recruit the masses.

Well you see they're probably going to base the timeslot for Big O on ratings...if the 5:00am slot gets high enough ratings (because it certainly will) they'll move Big O to 1:30 or something...but on the slim/unlikely/unthinkable chance that low ratings come from a 5:00am show, they'll take it off the air again and wait another year.

(I wasn't trying to bash you Dork, so sorry if it sounded like I was attackin you >.<;; I just needed to get a rant off my chest =.= )

The 5:00AM (4:00AM where I am) is okay with me. I usually wake up from 4-5 so it isn't too much of a hassle. Maybe it can help me wake up! It's actually better than the 1:00-1:30 (12-12:30 for me...central if you haven't realized yet). I always had to TiVo it.

Tell you what, if I get a neilson family notebook I'll lie and say I watched it. I go to bed before 3:30 and Big O gets a hand up. Everybody's happy.

(it would certainly suck if AS uses the 5am timeslot to judge the show's popularity. I do so hope they're not that evil. I said hope, not 'know')
DorothyFan1 10-28-2005 02:39 PM
AS is known for its sly and often misleading "hints". Remember the big hullaboo over that commercial saying AS was moving in a more "gardening" direction? Plus that shamefully misleading commercial showing a black watch which gave us the impression it was a big hint about Big O?
Mattartist 11-03-2005 04:46 AM
Yeah, thats why I do not like them very much... (wags finger at them)

But, one thing that may be off topic, I've been taping Big O for two days now, this now being the second day. Did anyone care to notice that the Adult Swim staff PULLED OFF THE WHOLE STINKIN' BEGINNING, you know, the Big O theme song intro. They just have a poster on the wall (its yellow and black, not the one on Act 26 behind Dorothy and Roger) and has a bit of the theme song's beat, PERSAY, and personally, I don't really care, I just enjoy getting the Acts of the show (FOR ONCE!) and I will definately be getting up sooner.

Hey, a tip for all who'll listen: get to bed EARLIER, like 8:30pm or somehting. See, I live in Pennsylvania (my specific location is not for sale, Negotiators...) and it comes on at 5:00. So, just set yer clocks to 4:30, wake up, freshen, and then watch some Big O Action!

Okay, I'm done ranting...for now. Big Grin

Actually, I just stayed up all night and watch Act 3 "Electric City". Man, I gotta say its nice seeing some episodes of Season 1 where everything is much more simpler and not has rushed.

Yeah that ticked me off, too. But hell, I can subside with that as long as I can see Big O in action... or showtime. Whatever, I hope you get what I mean. Big Grin
Peace.
