Revision as of 00:10, 30 June 2014
This is a list of television programs formerly or currently broadcast on Cartoon Network's late night programming block, Adult Swim in the United States. Although both networks share the same time space, Adult Swim is classified as a separate entity for the purposes of Nielsen ratings.
Unlike other networks, Adult Swim usually leaves the door open for canceled shows to come back, be it on air or in another format. Show creators may choose to move on to a new project, but because of the channel's flexible scheduling and low production costs, there is a chance the canceled show could return some day. For example, Space Ghost Coast to Coast has been brought back in short form on Gametap while The Brak Show, Perfect Hair Forever, and 12 Oz. Mouse all had webisodes released on Adult Swim Video following their conclusions.[1][2][3]
