I saw it yeah. I don't blame them for posting it, it's just an opinion piece and it's not their job, as a fan site, to only post positive stuff. I think criticism of the block is healthy and gives us stuff to think about, whether we agree or disagree with it.
This PARTICULAR criticism- the "too many long runners will cause stagnation" one- is based on a fallacy that has never been proven correct, and in fact, on Adult Swim and TV in general, has been proven wrong time and time again. As for the idea that there will be "no room for new shows" with JoJo in our lineup, that's not true at all either. This is TV. The block can expand or contract as needed. And we have a lot more in the works. We will see what works, and you as the viewers will guide us by telling us what you want, with ratings.
The only thing I object to on a personal level is being called "lazy" and the insinuation that somehow with a settled schedule, we at Toonami will make less content. We have been making more original short work than ever before, all while producing TWO originals for the block and two TIEs in the next year ALONE. All without being paid.
That's the weird thing about Toonami though. Everyone feels like they own it. Ultimately while stuff like this can rankle in the moment, I'm just happy we have a block that spurs opinions. 👍🏼
