Hey all. In case you haven't seen it yet, 70-30 (creators of Sealab 2021 and Frisky Dingo) made a great new spin-off of Frisky Dingo about the Xtacles. However, AS is getting much more demanding on ratings because of the whole financial crisis and if the show doesn't get better ratings on it's repeat Fri night than it did on it's premiere Sun night it will be canceled which could pretty much spell the end for 70-30 all together.
They need our help by watching it on Fri and by getting the word out. Even if you are one of the people that just thought it was ok but not as good as Frisky Dingo you should still help because we will just end up loosing both shows.
So please tune in Fri night at midnight so 70-30 can continue to make great shows for us.
If you or someone you know looks like Carl, this could be your shot at immortality. Sweaty, hairy, horny immortality. How, you may ask, is one to achieve such greatness? Easy. Simply make a video of you or your friend (being Carl, you sicko) and upload it to Adultswim.com. Then sit and wait. If you are man enough to master the role of Carl, Adult Swim will contact you. Then your journey begins....... For there can only be one.

Well, Dragon*Con has once again come and gone. I was going to hold off on most of this stuff until Friday's Swimcast... but then I realized "Hey, we have a website that we should be posting this news to."
Here's the ATHF info:
From The Dragon Panel:
New eps will begin airing this coming March
The first four eps will be released on ATHF Vol 6 on December 16th
The Vol 6 DVD will include the short film Terrorphone starring Dana Snyder and Carey Means. When I asked Dave if it was similar to Raydon, he said "It's better than Raydon."
A raw (minus animation) clip from She Creature was shown. Carl has a monster in his pool. Frylock is planting trees... DEET DEET DEET DEET DEET....
From the ATHF/Squids Panel:
Clip from Gene E was shown. He is a small Genie that makes people invisible.
Clip from Shake Like Me was shown. Shake is bitten by a radioactive spider.... and becomes a black man.
Live action ATHF episode in the works. Fans will be able to post vids of themselves as Carl on adultswim.com very soon.
Star Wars episode is in the works. Will be the usual 12 minutes unlike Robot Chicken.
MC Chris will not be returning for the foreseeable future... although he has recorded a voice for Dave Willis's Cheyenne Cinnamon show.
Guest voices this year will include Scott Adsit from Morel Orel, Matt Walsh from UCB and The Daily Show, and Bill Hader from SNL.
People have been reporting on a sequel to ColonMovie... this may have been a joke by Dave after someone said they didn't like the movie... Dave proceeded to compare ColonMovie's greatness to that of films like Van Wilder.
And that's all the ATHF news that's fit to print. We will have news soon on our sister site Squids Central as well as on DUH MUTHERSHIP. Stay tuned.
