Nipples grow back. I know a guy who lost one when someone was giving him a titty-twister, and about 6 months later it grew back.

Kinda like legs on a starfish, or something.

I concur. FMA would make a better 'bridge' show for teens and young adults from Toonami's GundamSEED to AS' GitS.

But more to the point: SeaLab has a new captain!!! Where's Murphy?!

Sealab 2021 is made by 70/30 Productions not Williams Street. The only shows Williams Street directly created was Space Ghost Coast to Coast, The Brak Show, and ATHF.

-If Cowboy Bebop is DBGT, then Inu-Yasha is Yu-Yu Hakusho: Just as good, if better than the franchise but not as merchandiseable or relevant for the producers. Inu-Yasha is simply one of the best anime ever and is quickly getting ready to subplant DBZ as the most popular toon in the minds of teens everywhere. I just played the fighting game...a little simplistic but addictive!!

*shrugs* Well it's your opinion but, I wouldn't consider IY one of the best anime ever as I can name plenty of anime shows that are more entertaning than IY. Yu-Yu Hakusho happens to be one of them.

Pity that a great 'bridge' show like Detective Conan/Case Close is going to be pushed up to 1:00am--even though they are still airing premire episodes just to make room for IY reruns. That ain't right...

....If SeaLab actually manages to subplant ATHF as the franchise, then I predict that ATHF will go back to being Sunday exclusive, and SL will have a half-hour block on Weekdays.

Thankfully, Sealab 2021 is too mediocre for that to happen.

From what I heard, Harry Goz's(RIP) son is voicing the new captian.

You get nipples because the default gender for the vast majority of the creature on the planet is female. Hence why everyone has at least one X chromosome and only about a half of the population has a Y one in addition to the X.

Back to the new schedule: I really, really hope that Sealab 2021 will only become a place holder and that Venture Bros. is excellent and doesn't turn out to be a disappointment like Harvey Birdman.

I'm not 100% positive on this, but I hear that it's only a temporary move and ATHF might get phased out of weekdays sometime over the summer, pushing everything forward by half an hour. Though I don't think it really makes that big a difference when it comes to Detective Conan; it may be a good bridge show, but a 12:30am timeslot and a 1am timeslot are both equally ridiculous for a show that should clearly be airing during prime time.

Of course, I find that a bit questionable, seeing as how ATHF seems to be their highest rated original show. (And rightfully so.). Also, a few people have been fighting to get Sealab 2021 on Teletoon but... I get the impression that it might not be worth it?

Oh yeah... did you guys know that Squirrelknight looks exactly like Conan? I'm not kidding!

O.o You have numb nipples? All the guys I've played with have gotten at least <i>something</i> out of it. That's just... weird. I mean, yeah, they're never going to be as sensitive as a girl's, but still.

Zeta wrote:While we're on the subject, I think it was a mistake to replace Captain Murphy at all. The new Captain doesn't really add anything to the show, and there's nothing the character has said or done so far that couldn't be done or said by Stormy or Marco . . . without the talented voice actor, the captain is kind of superfluous.

That being said, I wouldn't want my nipples removed. I've gotten used to them. But if one was cut off in a tragic gardening accident, I wouldn't replace it with a refrigerator magnet.

See what I mean when I said people think I'm high 24/7?

Well, if they didn't replace him, you have a ship with no captain and no one giving stupid orders, so yeah, they NEED a captain. I'm just glad they had the sense to not replace Harry Goz and keep the character of Captain Murphey on the show, because that would suck even worse, IMO. Tornado Shanks isn't HURTING the show, so I'm fine with him.

I think the very first thing in the show was something like "Now I'm your new captain. Most of you will get upset, but there isn't anything i can do. No matter who your new captain would be, you'll throw a hissy, so stop whining."
