01:10 - What fourth wall?
|
(top)  |
Okay, it's official: Cartoon Network simply kicks ass; there's no further debate about it.
The following are four of the new packaging pieces they're playing during Adult Swim. The first one was on during Futurama; the second between Futurama and Family Guy; and the other two during Family Guy. There are lots more, too, during the anime they show later and as ads throughout the day.
The spots are nothing more than series of text cards, white on black, with ambient music in the background.
    
On the fourth one, the final card-- #28-- appears for like ten seconds.
These guys rule.
UPDATE: Okay, make that five; the fifth ad was just too much fun to pass up.
Incidentally, on Family Guy, Peter was rubbing his scrotum-like chin; then his eyes opened wide, and he said with surprise, "Hey, how did these get up here?" And he took off his, er, chin, and put it back in his pants.
God damn that show's self-conscious.
