I can confirm they used black boxes to censor the nudity in The Room. However, they even made that a bit of a joke by making the black bars so huge that you quite literally couldn't tell what was going on in the scene because 50-80% of the screen was just black. It was hilarious.

I literally came here because I remembered watching when the 2004 prank happened and had to find out if it was real or not. I was impressed back then wondering just how they managed to draw all those goofy mustaches on top of the episodes and it remains a treasured memory of how Adult Swim was and has grown over the years.

Bushworld Adventures is unironically my favorite episode of Richard And Matthew.

The best part of the FMA fart episode was Ed delivering his poignant final speech to Rose while turning his back to her. Instead of just inserting the noise over the dialogue, they replaced his entire speech with the sounds. She was looking for answers to how her village was supposed to live without their crooked priest, and the answer she received was...farts. Her shocked facial expression made it even better

Call me biased, but I still think the SGC2C marathon from 2014 is still the best Adult Swim prank ever, only because of how nice of a tribute it is to the show. My runner up would be The Room marathons, namely the 2010 one with Space Ghost interviewing Tommy Wiseau. Overall this was a pretty cool video documenting all of their pranks, I enjoyed it a lot!

16:20 - i saw this on tv when it aired in 2007. and yes, i can confirm the audio played for the movie.. WITH ONE CATCH! It was playing the audio IN REVERSE. the audio started at the end of the movie working backwards.

Wow that must have been awful for spanish then lol

Damn RebelTaxi was right about someone having the same idea

Don't forget that in the 2007 prank, they also randomly put text like "Kyra Sedgwick Is The Closer" and "Everybody Loves Raymond". The Closer was a TNT show, by the way.

the 2022 one stings a bit these days because pibby is just likely to never come out, which just really sucks. they really shouldn't have done this one honestly, despite how good it was. it ended up just pissing everyone off.

Absolutely fantastic retrospective of one of AS' most iconic pieces. I feel like these pranks have gone on to influence the entire network in more ways than one with various stealth premieres and special announcements at any given time of the year.

It’s also Adult Swim’s April Fools behavior becoming so known that you get stuff like Smiling Friends Go to Brazil or the AS Yule Log/The Fireplace

Swimmers for life! Thanks for having me on! 💙

I reallly wanna see pibby be made into a full show because there is so much potential here

I love their April Fools stuff because it is good and doesn't make me angry. That 2017 one really pissed me off. I was really invested in Season 5 of Samurai Jack. They even indicated and never updated the airing schedule. So, to find out that this show that I have never seen before and had zero interest in stole the time slot for Episode 3 or 4 (I don't remember which) yet acted like nothing was wrong was the final nail in the coffin for me generally despising April 1st. I loved Season 5 of Samurai Jack and was the first time that I got hyped for anything in the entertainment industry.

In hindsight, the 2012 [adult swim] AFD event wasn't a 'stunt' or 'prank'.....it was a loving AFD surprise to the fans of Toonami that A] showed those at [as] were still thinking of those fans, and B] was the litmus test to see if Toonami still mattered. Needless to say, it did, and that's what led to it's real rebirth 6 1/2 weeks later. And from my perspective, 2012 was the AFD magnum opus for [as]. Full stop. It didn't get better than showing the love to the anime fans out there. =)

This is seriously some of the funniest shit, it’s so hilarious. What makes it all the more comedic is that it’s shows you know too.

nice job as always on this recaptrospective my friend. Glad to see my personal favorite as prank got covered by my favorite podcaster and topped the list. Oh and by the way, your april fools day parties need chips. Lucky for you I know someone who has them ;)

I totally agree about 2017 I was hyped for the episode that fateful night but when the time slot I was so mad i had be waiting years for the proper finale for Jack

Yooo i remember getting so confused one night when i woke up during their first Room prank, wondering why there were a bunch of black boxes on the screen. Thought my tv was broken.

I loved it, but I have to rank it either number 4 or 5, it was not bad, it had puppets, perhaps I had expected more from Adult Swim after the last couple of years.

19:54 Robert Osborne TCM style intros for Fat Guy Stuck in Internet, Superjail, Lucy Daughter of the Devil, Saul of the Mole Men, and Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, as well as general intros for Adult Swim itself were preloaded on the Adult Swim Zune which can be found in a post from r/Zune "Content from Special Edition Zunes". They may or may not be the same as the April Fools ones because they were made in 2007 specifically for the zunes. Edit: I've extracted them from the files on the Zune and compiled it into a video that is currently on my channel.

2024 and this years prank was pretty good. Saying Season Two of Smiling Friends was going to premiere just for puppet versions of Season One episodes aired is pretty funny. And actually playing episode one of Season Two made it even better

Wait so you’re telling me those fever dreams I had when they ran Too Many Cooks over and over and over was not a April fools joke?? 🙄

Awesome vodeo!

Adult Swim might be the king of April Fools Day content, since it's actual content that has gotten a couple major things done, like the Toonami revivial.

The 2020 prank is unironically an extremely treasured memory for me. One of the few good things that year tbh, represented a turning point in life

Fun fact: I had a friend who was obsessed with Fullmetal Alchemist and the very first time I tuned in to see what all the fuss was about was April fools. It took me an embarrassingly long time into the episode before I realized it was an April’s Fools day prank and that farts were not just a part of FMA.

I remember the rick & morty s3 premiere irritated me so much lol. like yeah, it was just 1 more week I had to wait, but I don't watch rick & morty and I was in a bad mood that day, rlly looking forward to the new samurai jack and it was just snatched away. I don't like april fool's in general bc it just feels like I can't trust anyone and ppl use it as an excuse to be irritating instead of funny--hence why I barely go online on that day. ANYWHO good vid

I remember watching Toonami and hearing fart sounds every 5 seconds thinking that it was just the sound effects of the wheels on the wheelchair on a character

Is this year’s prank AI and streaming services? I saw all the AI stuff last night but I noticed the minus sign on their Instagram profile pic (the minus isn’t there anymore). “Adult Swim -“?

Wait, Aqua Teen Hunger Force had a MOVIE!?

I had just gotten into Samurai Jack the week the first episode of s5 aired (I have been meaning to watch it for a long time, a new season gave me reason to) and I was so bummed and a little miffed Rick and Morty pre-empted episode 4. Like, I like Rick and Morty fine enough [note: i haven't seen past s3] but........ my show!

The latest one was fun

Look, I’m not the most ethnic person in the world, but even I know that LEARNING WITH PIBBY LEARNING IS SO FUN!

god i love perfect hair

I'd stopped watching dubbed anime before the original Toonami block ended, but I still have nostalgia for it. I've never actually watched the new Toonami (I got rid of cable/dish a year before it returned, and even if I did, I won't watch dubbed anime anyway), but I still think it's cool it's back. I have a TOM Funko pop by my TV. Also just feels weird that it's been back for as long as the original incarnation lasted, it still feels like the comeback was recent. Hell, it feels like it was gone longer than it's been back, but it was only gone for like 4 years. Then again, time is weird, Adult Swim started when Cartoon Network was only 9 years old, yet it still feels kinda recent to me, even though I watched (well, recorded and watched later) the first ever night of Adult Swim, back when it was only 2 nights a week and the second night was a repeat of the first.

Adult Swim Jr worked so well that the reuploaded bumbers on KZread get labeled as “made for kids”

43:30 most people prefer the subs now. The localization teams stink at redubbing. I'd rather watch anime dubbed in Japanese with ENGLISH subtitles. (OR English Dub with translation subs) Translation subs are VITAL to figuring out what they change, add, or just get wrong. So much dialog in Dragon Ball is WRONG or just added to fill quiet. one that always comes to mind is the wish Krillin makes after the cell games. everything TRUNKS says is wrong. He talks in the english version while in Japanese he doesn't say anything while the wish is being made.
