I won this avatar on a technicality this thick.
I want to see Dr. Orpheus and the Triad fight crime in the big city just once before the show ends. Is that too much to ask for?

How about a Triad spin-off?

I mean, the Blood Vessel has Illinois tags (1984 - 2000 design), so it can be set in Chicago. Get Dick Wolf on board; because c'mon of course he needs to be on board.

Chicago Triad.

And, just like Chicago Med, Chicago PD, and Chicago Fire, every 9th episode would not be a crossover with at least two of the other ones.

I was just thinking recently that it'd be cool to finally get an episode about Jefferson Twilight. He doesn't really get as much development as the rest of the triad and New York is probably the best location to do something with his skillset. A blaxploitation episode involving him fighting blackulas in harlem or wherever would be pretty cool

Oh, so an episode where he hunts African American vampires in Harlem?

Black Dynamite (the cartoon) was also pretty good

I know adult swim can be pretty loosey-goosey but having the author of the art book be the guy to break the news of the shows cancellation is a bit much to take.

Cancelling the show now is some pretty strange timing if you think about it. The show endures the slowest possible television production for 17 years only to be cancelled in production of what may have (or definitely should have) been the last season.

I honestly think the show was about to run it’s course with another season, and it’d be a shame if that doesn’t happen somehow.

They were so close to a satisfying ending, what does AS even have now other than Rick & Morty? Huge disappointment.

This seems really final. I guess they currently are not making plans to release something for the fans? drat.

Oh well, time for a big fat rewatch then. I definitely have cried laughing at this show many times, sad that it went out with a fart rather than a bang.

I've yet to get around to watching Joe Pera Talks With You, but the COVID-19 Special(?) kicks rear end. Tigtone is pretty good - it's like someone came up with the general story of the episode during a period of air-starvation, or ridiculous inspiration, and then quickly wrote down the idea and dedicate themselves to surprisingly competently animating and voice-acting what is a terrible idea. Eric Andre makes a couple things every so often, if you're into that? Primal's second season/second half is coming out soon, by the guy behind Samurai Jack.

Other than that, weeeeell~
