Favorite Korgoth comments from the Adult Swim boards

After reading through this thread, I've come to these small few decision regarding the second coming of Korgoth:

1. If Korgoth had been firmly planted in the lining of of the scrotum of Seth Green, Seth McFarlane, Tim and Eric (they really are two side of the same piece of fecal debris), Brendan Small, and the rest of the crew with AS-spit soaked gonads, then we'd have already had a second episode. Unfortunately, it was written by Aaron Springer (allegedly) who has worked in conjunction with the likes of Genndy Tartakovsky of Dexter's Laboratory fame, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, and SpongeBob Squarepants. (Each of which are quality shows imho). (Why won't you guys let Aaron in your club, guys?)

2. If you wish to see less of Tim and Eric as I would certainly hope, I would suggest that the majority, if not all, of you turn off your TV sets or change the channel whenever their shows come on. If we did that en masse then nobody will want to sponsor those shows after a while, and then AS won't be able to afford to keep the likes of Tim and Eric in the lineup. Also, avoid the associated and otherwise affiliated websites related to said show or shows. (Disclaimer: I am merely suggesting and not mandating, advocating, forcing, implying, or otherwise telling you to do this. I am merely presenting a potential outcomeas a result of aforementioned action based on volumes of data recorded in the annals of modern and pre-modern business practices and periodical listings in many, if not all, industries.)

Now, on a personal note:

Korgoth was the entire reason I signed up for an account here. I have made a total of two posts - each related to Korgoth's return, and each time I have been disappointed. My TV time spent watching AdultSwim has dropped due to the fact that listening to the same old voice actors and style of humour has become old and tired. Korgoth was fresh (at least to me). I enjoyed 12 oz mouse because it wasn't the same type of humour and I really enjoyed the change of pace and the artistic interludes. Venture Brothers is another good one because it never seems to disapppoint me. I still enjoy Metalocalypse (have to find someway to get MarkHamill involved, eh?), and I like the poignancy and self analyzing humour of Aaron MacGruder of Boondocks (but then again, why would they turn down the only show ojn AS that ever received an Emmy?).

[Insert obligatory "Bring Back Korgoth!" and "Korgoth Rules!" line here.]

Enjoy.

Korgoth has a cult following after one pilot episode. That doesn't happen with a lot of shows.

Korgoth looked to be a quality show; had a lot of potential and great animation (now mirrored in Superjail somewhat).

Everyone I've talked to (mostly voices in my head) have expressed an interest in the continuation of this show. Why do garbage shows like Tim & Eric get aired? They absolutely **BLEEP** (not opinion, actual FACT). AS has a **BLEEP** for that boring "random humor" phase. The lazy stylings of Seth MacFarlane and Seth Green, yes we get it, you can make 8 outdated pop-culture references per second.

Bring back Korgoth! It's humor pertained to the plot and had the makings of rich characters & setting (like Samurai Jack). GIve it another pilot or something, I'm sure it will get a ton of viewers.

Suppose it's hopeless to lobby AS, as the staff is probably fapping to 10-minute cartoon shorts that can be churned out cheaply and up their bottom line.
