Hey Folks. Sorry there hasn't been that much activity here as of late... matter of fact since episode 100/the ATHF Live tour, there really hasn't been much in the way of news for the show, etc. Plus, anything important we've posted over at [as]central (just check the widget on the top of this page for news there.)
I guess first off, I should say a very Happy (belated) Birthday to Aqua Teen Hunger Force, which turned the big 10 yesterday. The "Stealth Pilot" for the show aired 10 years ago yesterday on December 30th, 2000. 2 years (to the day) later, our own Aqua Teen Central was created.
As far as ATHF news goes, we have a little something:
Artist and ATHF fan Andy Hunt sent this along to us recently. His design "Humble Beginnings" based on ATHF, will be printed on apparel over at RIPTapparel.com:
Shirts will be made available for 24 Hours Only starting next Friday (January 7th) at RIPTapparel.com.
Expect some big things in 2011 for [as]central as a whole... plus we'll have the Ep Guide done. We promise!
Anderson Evans over at Gawker.tv has a really cool interview up with Dave and Dana during the NYC show. You can check it out (and also hear the Russian version of ATHF) by clicking the image below:
More info on the NYC show when we post this week's edition of The Swimcast later on.
With nearly 10 years, 7 DVDs, plus a feature-length movie... Aqua Teen Hunger Force takes the next step. One that even the originator (Space Ghost: Coast 2 Coast) was unable to take: Its 100th Episode:
In a further effort to weed out sleeper agent bots (the kind that either register and dump a crappy link into their profile and leave or post just enough to get said link out into the open), I've re-instated the registration bans on pretty much all free email domains. This means that if you don't have a working address you can use, aren't a bot and want to actually register at the forum then you'll need to contact someone on the site's staff page (i.e. Sentroid91, since he's the most likely to respond) and have them set up an account for you to use.
In addition, I've also disabled the ability for regular users to edit personal info in their forum profiles. In recent months, I've noticed a sly little trend that the bots use where they'll leave fields blank initially and then slip back days later to drop in a few links to whore out what the hell ever product du jour it is they came here to whore out in their signatures, etc.
Lastly, I've recently mass emailed all existing users in the Members group to check for general activity/interest in keeping their long dormant accounts. If you're one of these individuals, I urge you to find the thread in the forum (Activity Check) and post in it to spare your account from getting pruned (permanently deleted).

Fans with spare cash in Texas and Louisiana can now enjoy what others did last year. If you manage to go to any of these shows, be sure to namedrop John and this site. Even if you don't do that, send John an email with details on the show(s) you attended. He'll likely delve into it on an episode of that podcast he does.
P.S.: UGO says ATHF V7 to be released on June 15th, we'll keep you posted if this changes as Warner Home Video has not formerly announced the release yet.
New fan art in here as well as some new Halloween fan art.
Another reminder that if you have pictures from meeting someone from the ATHF show, you are more than welcome to send them to me. I have a couple already, but I need a handful more for it to warrant a new category to post them under.
As always, if you have any fan art or fan pictures, send them to me at Squee@aquateencentral.com
