Anyone who doesn't like King of the Hill is a filthy communist and should be fed to the landsharks.

"If you don't love propane, you don't love america!"

[SalmonGod]

Eh, KoTH never appealed to me... In fact most 'adult' cartoons don't.
Adventure time? Fuck yea!

Adventure Time isn't an adult cartoon?

But I'm a fascist?

But not really. Just a bit more authoritarian than most other American liberals.

SAME THING!
The joke doesn't work as well with your transparent text, so I'll just ignore it :p

October 1st, 1992: Cartoon Network is established.

September 2nd, 2001: Adult Swim is established on Cartoon Network, lasting from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM.

December 7th, 2010: Adult Swim's timeslot is increased by one hour, now starting at 9:00 PM.

2011: The adult viewership of Cartoon Network skyrockets due to the aging of fans. Unexpectedly, several shows begin to move towards a more neutral level of appeal to both adults and children.

April 1st: 2012: Toonami April Fools occurs. Fan demand for the return of Toonami is unexpectedly high and the April Fools joke results in a severe rating spike. Cartoon Network begins predicting the economic benefits of reviving Toonami.

May 26th, 2012: Toonami returns in earnest, for a Saturday six-hour block. It proves immensely popular and CN immediately begins looking into acquiring new licenses to keep the revival profitable.

January 22nd, 2013: The infamous lost episode of Dexter's Lab "Rude Removal", is posted in Youtube by Adult Swim. It is taken down a few days later, but the untold number of copies remain in circulation across the internet.

Late 2013: Adult and child viewership of daytime Cartoon Network programing reaches parity. Toonami's timeslot is expanded to Friday and Sunday.

2014: Cartoon Network's employee base is now composed mostly of individuals who grew up watching early Cartoon Network shows. Toonami replaces the post-midnight Adult Swim block entirely.

2015: Controversy erupts due to increasingly mature themes in CN daytime programming. CN defends its broadcasts as quality works intended to appeal to both children and adults, publicly confirming what has been suspected for several years. The specifically offending content is edited, but a similar level of content remains mostly unopposed. Child-centric programming is now limited to the mid-morning timeslot, mostly watched by pre-schoolers.

2017: Cartoon Network officially changes its media title from Children's Animation to Animation. CN's daytime broadcast now reflects much more closely the intent of its first years than the early Adult Swim period. Adult Swim moves to its own channel and all nighttime broadcasts are handed over to Toonami.

2020: The Sons of the Patriots combat system comes online.

[as] did Toonami all by itself. CN didn't do it and probably wouldn't.

SHUT UP I'M TRYING TO MAKE A TIMELINE, YOU AND YOUR FACTS ARE JUST TROUBLE

[Kadzar]

Also, I don't think Adult Swim could afford to run their own network. They don't even seem to be able to afford to pay the Venture Brothers team to make new episodes on a regular basis.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

There's been talk about it before. Also, I'm putting that five years in the future.

Also, this is at least partially a kind of joke.

I feel a little sad now...

Yup.
Yup.
Yup.
Mmmhm.

Note: I despise everything about that show, but I found the YoutubePoop Boggle thing hilarious.

Which one?  King of the Hill or Adventure Time?

[Yoink]

Huh, now that I think of it I'm pretty sure I saw KoTH on Australian TV once. I think they put it in the timeslot vacated when they stopped airing South Park... Which is probably where my hatred for it comes from.

But, it can't be as bad as goddamn Family Guy, so I'm not going to be too harsh on it. Friggin' Family Guy is so popular over here, it's awful... That so many people I know, who seem like otherwise decent, intelligent people, get their yuks from that steaming pile of retardosity, is... probably making this post veer towards Rage Thread material.

[Max White]

It isn't hate worthy, it is just boring... It tries so hard to do that sort of awkward humor and just sort of doesn't do anything. It really does just amount to a few guys standing around drinking.

[Yoink]

King of The Hill? I'd have no idea, only watched it very briefly.
Just so we're clear, I was hatin' on Family Guy(and by extension American Dad), not that King of The Hill show.
