Adult Swim



Adult Swim is a late-night, adult-oriented channel skein. It holds the late-night bloc of the Cartoon Network channel. Adult Swim features comedic animated programming, usually containing absurd humor deemed unsuitable for young children. It airs many animated cult hits, such as Home Movies, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Boondocks, and Morel Orel. Its adult-aimed programming contrasts with Cartoon Network's youth-oriented daytime programming.

Anime is also featured on Adult Swim. Adult Swim usually airs anime with minimal editing from the original Japanese format. The first anime series aired on Adult Swim was Cowboy Bebop.

Adult Swim shows bumpers throughout its programming, usually made up of black cards with white text. The bumpers often have a comedic note, and range from programming information to random thoughts of the Adult Swim staff. Often these bumpers are used to answer questions from fans.
