archizzy 01/02/25 10:37:38 PM #2:	Harvey Birdman Attorney At Law is so good. I loved that time frame when I got home from the military in 1999. Family Guy just started, Futurama just started and then Adult Swim launched in like 2001 and I was watching Harvey Birdman and Aqua Teen Hunger Force and catching reruns of Space Ghost Coast to Coast I missed in the mid to late 90's when I was out to sea. I was like 25 years old and the Adult Swim stuff just really suited my style and I was digging what was on in that era. Not to distract from the intent of this topic but seeing Harvey Birdman and all those early launch Adult Swim series on there just took me right back. Of course I'm also partial to the stuff I grew up on like Flintstones and Jetsons and all that stuff from that era too. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.

Were_Wyrm 01/03/25 7:58:06 AM #36:	I just don't understand why they need to renew the license when the parent company owns the service and the content. Maybe it's their way of advertising that the streaming rights are available for lease so they can try and make more in royalties than subs, but it would be like Disney+ needing to renew their licenses for Marvel or Star Wars content. --- I was a God, Valeria.

For most shows they were talking about season finales. The way they were worded made it seem series finales. It would also include shows that had been cancelled months before. So many inaccuracies, why even bother. This topic reminds me of this. --- I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me.
