Hey Insomiacs! Fill That Hole with 'You're Whole'
You know the drill. You're up all night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. You give up, get up and turn on the TV to let a big toothed, be-sweatered pitchman conducting an overly rehearsed and edited infomercial lull you back to sleep. He'll tell you how you can juice your way to health, pump your way to a better body, or work from home while making thousands a month. Ultimately, a set of knives and a veggie slicer will be delivered to your door - much to the chagrin of your exasperated and sex starved wife.
What if that pitchman on telly was a blind, volleyball loving, pony tailed guy in 1990's mom jeans telling you how you can be whole?
From the people who bring you parody at it's best, Adult Swim (in conjunction with Abominable Pictures, Williams Street Productions and Michael Ian Black) gives you Randall Tyree Mandersohn - a life coach who will cough up results.
You're Whole airs at 4am everyday this month (a new episode each week) until you're convinced that smoothies, pumpkins, cookies and all day Sunday pooping will change your life forever.
Three 11 minutes installments of "You're Whole" will not only include "Pumpkins, Smoothies and Cookies", but "Finger Puppets, Saxophones and Fish Tank" and "Tools, Drawing Comics and Spin Class!" Again, that's all on Adult Swim! 4am!
Order Now! (Or really, order later, since all orders have been halted due to a pending criminal investigation.)
Watch now!

Comic Con Spawned Some Panels: Adult Swim Favorites
Comic Con is over. I didn't go. In fact, I'll probably never be able to attend since tickets get sold early in the year before I can even think of SDCC, and the idea of being committed to hotel bookings so far in advance is nuts to me. But if you were there and missed the cast of Childrens' Hospital, Adult Swim provides. The new season of Childrens' premieres on August 9th at midnight. The cast took the stage for some Q&A during the conference.
NSTF:SD:SVU, the hard hitting, gut busting answer to all procedural cop dramas will return on the same night, same channel after Childrens' Hospital. Here's the NTSF cast at SDCC.

Adult Swim's Upfront Explosion
Adult Swim has the type of comedy programming I can get behind. Weird, disturbing, hilarious, and dare I say it - groundbreaking. Here are some new shows (mostly live action) we fans of top notch strange, fun and icky comedy can believe in for the upcoming season.
Robot Chicken's sixth season begins this Fall. This well written, star studded show is stop motion action at it's best. Silly, stupid, absurd - it sends up pop culture and wins all kinds of Emmy awards for the taking. Some of the guests stars voicing the weird and wonderfulness will be Elizabeth Banks, Gillian Jacobs, Stanley Tucci, Olivia Wilde, and Jon Stewart.
NTSF:SD:SUV is back this August for a second season of insane cop procedural parody. Special Agent Trent Hauser, (Paul Scheer) and his elite team of counter-terrorist specialists return for more explosions and blood. This year we'll be see time travel, robot murders and talking dogs. Have you ever wanted to see a killer Santa Claus? Done. NTSF:SD:SUV premieres this August.
The Heart She Holler is returning for a second season. I don't know how to write about it than this: This show is a live action horror soap opera with whole lot of holy crap and a big dose of what the fuck. Patton Oswalt is a mutant man-child who inherits the town of Heart She Holler from his late wealthy insane father who communicates to him via video tape from the dead. Kristen Schaal and Heather Lawless are his horrifying sisters. You'll laugh hysterically and then take 10 hot showers. It's bizarro.
Childrens' Hospital. What can I say? This show rules the Adult Swim airwaves. Back for its fourth season, the medical "drama" will go further than it has ever gone before - to jolly England with a British version of the legendary show! Also, the search for the mysterious PA announcer Sal Viscuso unveils an evil so fierce it takes over the hospital. They'll be deadly airborne viruses, a beloved doctor will die over and over again, and Sy adopts a dog! Season four of Childrens' Hospital will premiere in August.

'Robot Chicken' Hits 100
Robot Chicken is stop action animation at its finest and most hilarious. Seth Green and his team at Stoopid Monkey productions have taken GI Joe, Barbie dolls and claymation figures to create Frankenstein-like actors posed in hilarious sketches to a whole funny, insane level. Plus, they invite the coolest celebrities to lend their voices, such as Diablo Cody, Lea Thompson, John Hamm and Bryan Cranston (to name a few - they're many more).
After five seasons on Adult Swim, Robot Chicken will be airing its 100th episode on January 15th 11:30pm ET/PT.

The Heart, She Holler

The Upfronts are winding down in New York City. A week of new fall schedules, pilot pick-ups and parties have been unfurled, only to be swept away with the remnants of party favors and stacked up folded chairs. As new comedy sitcoms were paraded out like a little miss beauty pageant, Cartoon Network announced the pick up of a new live action series for Adult Swim premiering this Fall. The Heart, She Holler stars Patton Oswalt in a soap opera spoof about a town filled with simple minded folk who are so in-bred, their locale has been deemed "supernaturally wrong". Heather Lawless also stars. This should be good!
