I read on the AS forum that they are doing this schedule change for ratings. They will probably change it soon, cuz so many people are ticked and are probably going to stop watching. Especially since Code GEass was moved to 5AM. I ended up watching CG ep. 20 dubbed online. >_> I hate Code Gaess the same as I hated Death Note... Anyway, I'm about ready to stop watching AS because they showed Moribito at a good time, then all of a sudden, three episodes in they moved it to a time slot there's no way in Hades I'm going to stay up that late to watch for no reason other than to watch it. Sure, I could record it, but I don't want 5 hours of BS I either don't like or don't care about just to see one show! And I don't care what anyone says, Death Note is still a stupid show!

I don't see why you'd have to record 5 hours. You should be able to set your DVR or VCR just to record from 5:30 to 6.

Adult Swim pretty much became a parody of itself, with every new show trying to be as much like ATHF as possible. Also they need to show anime that doesnt suck.

Didn't they completely give up on Moribito? I checked my scheduled recordings for my dvr, and it's not on this week. So I would assume that they just took it off the air.
And yeah, Adult Swim is pretty much dead to me. It seems like they only try to appeal to stoners and morons. They pretty much neglect their Action block, and they never advertise their Anime (from what I watch anyway). It's almost like they want to get canned.

The thing about DVR is it often gets listings wrong, especially when they change as much as adult swim does. If you want to know what's on adult swim, it's best to look at adultswim.com's schedule, and assume it's more up to date than your DVR listings. For example, the other week when I first looked for Geass and Moribito, knowing they were supposed to be on at 5 and 5:30, instead those slots both said Inuyasha. But I expected that was wrong, so I programmed it to record those slots, anyway. Then on Saturday night when I looked at it again, the DVR listing had the proper shows listed... but the recording had been turned off, since the DVR assumed I wanted to record Inuyasha, which it now knew wasn't going to be on. So I had to reset it to record Geass and Moribito. But they are still on.
As for the way adult swim treats anime, I really think it's just because it doesn't make as much money for them as the comedy does. Because there simply aren't enough people who like programming that you have to actually think about. Which leads me to conclude that the species is devolving...
EDIT: except of course this wek is "have it your way" schedule, so the regular stuff won't be on, but it'll be back next week.

Latest change starting Nov. 8 (or technically Nov. 9)
Bleach: 1am Moribito: 1:30am (seems to be starting over from episode 1, so it's a good time to jump in if you hadn't been watching, though I'm a bit upset that it'll be awhile before I get to see a new episode) Code Geass: 2am Shin Chan: 2:30am
That's it for new stuff. There's some comedy reruns from 11-12, then Boondocks at 12, and anime reruns from 3-6: FLCL, Death Note, Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop, Big O, Inuyasha

I don't think Death Note is a stupid show at all, It was one of the best series ive ever seen but enough about that im angry they moved bleach to 1AM, because when it comes on im sleeping
