The Collider:
Move over, Adult Swim; there’s a new player in the pool. For more than ten years now, Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim programming block has been the place to find some of the most progressive, insane and “mature” animated programming on TV (stateside, at least). Due to its role in reviving such series as Family Guy and Futurama, FOX has paid attention to Adult Swim’s success over the years and saw that there was money to be made. Already promoting their “animation domination” with regular series Family Guy, The Simpsons and more, FOX has now developed a new unit of animation to focus on a late-night block of animated programming.
Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
Brigands: The Quest For Gold Review: The Italian drama follows a group of brigands, embarking on a journey to reclaim power and some hidden gold.
Dinner with the Parents Review: It's a family comedy series following the Langers, who often turn their family dinners into a disruptively chaotic affair.
I didn't realize that Adult Swim did that well in the ratings. I haven't watched any of the shows myself but I will check the schedule to see what they have on there.
I don't think Fox will be able to get away with the same level of raunchy humor that Adult Swim enjoys on cable. Not to mention Adult Swim original programming is made extremely cheaply and has a loyal fan base while Fox is going to struggle turning a profit or cutting into Adult Swim's fan base.
