Rules: If you list more than 4 things I'm gonna just tally the first 4 you say. If you list the same character multiple times it won't count. Be nice. Don't shove your personal definition of "Mount Rushmore" down others' throats. Have fun. If you're going to majorly change a vote please quote your old vote to make it easier for me.

[adult swim] specific-rules: THE SHOW MUST HAVE ORIGINATED ON ADULT SWIM. I know some people are not going to read this and I'm so ready to throw out their invalid votes.

This is a Rushmore of [adult swim] ORIGINAL SHOWS, shows made specifically for [adult swim].

EXCEPTIONS: SPACE GHOST AND SAMURAI JACK

(Most) anime does not count because it is from Japan. If you wanna do an anime on toonami/[as] Rushmore you can nominate that

YESTERDAY: If someone had brought up Nuzleaf earlier it absolutely would have made it on the Rushmore, it just did not have enough time. Crazy momentum from a Pokemon that nobody gives two shits about anymore. Excellent Nuzleaf-relevancy discourse last topic.

Half of the votes were WTF picks. I cannot believe we are living in a reality where Spheal got 2. Poor Castform is the only one who had a single vote the lost it.

Early post to advocate for the inclusion of VENTURE BROS

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/2/2444e4f2.jpg

I haven't been participating in my own topic series much lately but I absolutely would love seeing Venture Bros make it onto this one. It deserves it

my vote:

Venture Bros
ATHF
Sealab
Smiling Friends

Not voting Rick and Morty, Smiling Friends is a better modern rep (even though Rick and Morty absolutely fits more)

Space Ghost does not count because it predates [adult swim]. This was decided on in the Cartoon Network Rushmore topic when you guys declared it a CN show, so don't go trying to backpedal that community ruling

If we made a choice we made a choice but for shows that got moved and continued to produce new material, it should honestly be eligible for both places. SGC2C definitely is a CN show and definitely is an AS show. Samurai Jack would actually be the same too.

Robot Chicken
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
The Venture Bros
Rick and Morty

Robot Chicken and ATHF are pillars of Adult Swim's history and should basically be guaranteed spots here. Venture Bros is top tier so it definitely gets a vote from me.

Last spot is really hard as there are a lot of good and/or reasonable options. Boondocks, Space Ghost, Sealab 2021, Harvey Birdman, Home Movies etc. There's Smiling Friends, Primal, and Rick and Morty on the more recent side along with others I am probably missing

On one hand, I had thought about that Robot Chicken skit where it presented the proverbial "Council of Adult Swim" as being Space Ghost, ATHF, and Family Guy (which doesn't count here) as a point for Space Ghost. Though for the sake of trying to spread em out to different "eras" I gave it to Rick and Morty. Yeah its another Teen Titans GO situation. I like Primal and Smiling Friends more, but as said R&M is more fitting as the modern rep for better or worse.

Though I'll listen in on others' opinions and may change it.

Space Ghost aired most of its episodes before Adult Swim even existed. I'm not opposed to allowing it as an Adult Swim show, but it definitely qualifies as a CN show.

I didn't know that R&M was an adult swim show. I've never actually thought about where it aired, but I probably would have assumed that AS picked it up later like Family Guy and the others. And as much as I don't want to include it over some of their older shows, I think it's fairly non-debatable that it's their most culturally relevant show in a long time.

I definitely agree with Space Ghost counting as both, same with Samurai Jack. Home Movies first episodes were on UPN, but later seasons were created for Adult Swim, so I'd also argue for its inclusion (though so far no one's argued for its exclusion, even though it premiered on another network. Shows how terribly its incredibly brief UPN run went, I suppose.)
