*laughs loudly* Geddit?
Anyway, just to be on the safe side, when Adult Swim's identity was centered around pools, Cartoon Network's late night lineup felt a lot safer. Waaaaaay safer. Why? Because there was a God protecting us all! In the form of that sarcastic lifeguard, of course. When Adult Swim first transmitted on US TV in 2001, we all knew it was the second coming of God. And so it was.
This son of man was there every single night to show us his 'creations' - Space Ghost, Brak, Sealab 2021 and the like...and all these bumps where he shouted at the pool attendees meant a very special meaning: he was laying down some very special commandments we must obey for the soul of America. Altogether now, at the tops of our voices!
NO TEA PARTIES!
NO EATING!
NO DIVING!
NO CANNONBALLS!
NO EATING!
NO DIVING!
NO CANNONBALLS!
However, this whole peace was not to last....
When Adult Swim adopted its new soulless and creepy look, they extinguished this son of man entirely and started praying to the devil, which meant no commandments, no rules and nowadays, Adult Swim took over Cartoon Network which meant no variety, no fun and no laughs - and worst of all, Teen Titans Go airing all day.
IT'S NOT FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIR!
However, we can all do our part to bring back the God-controlled era of Cartoon Network just by starting petitions, writing to Turner and making collages and digital scrapbooks of our favourite characters...or else, every single animator will be in the very worst kind of distress.
If you know what I mean.
RIP Lifeguard.
You always were the second coming to us.
"All kids out of the pool!"
2001-2003.
