[cybotron]

[QUOTE=jeffbert;74646][QUOTE=jeffbert;74473]According to the message just before Robot Chicken started last night,
Astroboy will be on Adult Swim: Starts 7/14 at 2 AM.

Lest there be any confusion, the show will air Sunday mornings starting 7/15 @ 2am. Now I will need a few more 180 or 200 minute tapes, because I just now began to appreciate Shin-chan. [/QUOTE]

Shin-chan is funny. Reminds me of My Neighbors The Yamadas.[/QUOTE]
Hi Latu, nice to see you back...
We just have to wait and see which episode the Adult Swim guys put on next.
Will they follow the episode guide or jump into specific episodes for content. Any way it goes this will be one sweet summer for Astro fans....
The next episode if they follow the list is...

"Colosso"
This is soooooo GREAT!!!

if Adult swim skips colloso it means they have discovered the inner workings and Astro is a pure CULT hit....

Shin Chan rulez!!! This series arrived to my country more than 5 years ago and is still a cult hit comparable to the Simpsons: It's aired every day. Family Guy will be the third on the list of humorous adult toons.

I think its pretty cool that Astro is on AS, I watched it tonight and the 60s series is so different, I'm tempted to buy the 60s box sets now.

Like Jeffbert said they're following the original program....

[Big Astro Fan]

I watched it this morning and this episode was really weird. It definetly had that sixties charm.

I just watched & timed ep 3, Mission to Mars, & it ran for 25:08 give or take 2-3 seconds. I did not pay enough attention to notice if anything was cut, but the DVDs' episodes ran only a few seconds longer.

Have you seen the promos that CN is running for Astro? They have studied the episodes and seen the anomalies. Astro is now "High Camp!"

Briefly, but I always fast forward through commercials.
i did run a few ad at regular speed.

Did you see the Astroboy promo were the marooned doctor from the Mars episode threatens to blow astro and his space ship to pieces?
