- Anyone born within the last 25 years will likely remember a particular Adult Swim bump that stuck with them for better or worse. Today, let's take a look at a brief history of the block, as well as how (and why) they constructed their elaborate array of bumps, sign-ons and sign-off messages.

To me, the bizarre and eerie bumpers were the glue that bind together the whole experience of staying up past your bed time and watching shows you weren't supposed to. The bumpers felt random, but at the same time, completely intentional, like it was controlled randomness.

Hell no
I love bumpers something fierce. They are so well done. The music, the urban photos, the humorous statements.
I even like The Dawn is Your Enemy one, since if you’re a night owl, the dawn feels like your enemy since the night feels safe and full of solitude but with the dawn comes the living world.
So glad I accidentally found your channel.
69 likes.
Also that tilt-shift photo of that bump at @9:54 was actually taken from a photo in Atlanta GA “Adult swims headquarters”
Glad this is something that is appreciated by more than just my family. You never know what is a small community and what is a worldwide phenomenon before a video like this :)
Late 90s - early 2010s really was a great time for tv
It's the background music vibes that give life to those bumpers, especially the ones from Japan.
Glad to see someone make a video about this topic! I don't watch much adult-oriented media (King of the Hill, Family Guy, etc.), but I've had a fascination with Adult Swim's bumpers. They put such a unique spin on a concept like bumpers and ran with it incredibly; I enjoy seeing all the different takes they do with live-action videos, still images, etc. Personally, I like the white text on the black background the most. Great video!
the film reel bumpers were actually mostly for adult swim's action anime block in 2005
I hated "The Dawn is Your Enemy" bumper and would often switch channels at around 6 AM to avoid it lmao. It was great that Disney Channel was the next channel up from Cartoon Network haha. Man.. memories of staying up ALL night on the computer with Adult Swim playing away in the background.
"WHA-WHAT IS THAT PAMENT-PAMENTO CHEESE? SIR, NO EATING IN THE POOL!"
"ALL KIDS OUTTA THE POOL!"

Adult swim bumpers are really nice, and seeing UA-camrs like disrupt tv use similar intermissions makes it even more enjoyable. Great video, keep it up!
I found your channle by the Denny’s grand slam and I am so glad I did, your are one of the most genuine UA-camrs I have seen in such a long time it’s so refreshing.
Jesus christ my friend, you are so underrated. I only found due to an accident, no algorithm, no recommendation, no suggested videos, just randomly stumbled upon u 1 day.
Yep.
I remember distinctly that one of these bumpers scared me as a kid, but I can’t recall which one. Some of them are locked deep within my mind lol
Great video, I started watching adult swim from it's first broadcast back in '01. The old people in the people with the sort of latin dance music and the guy yelling "ADULT SWIM" through a megaphone always stayed with me, along with the earliest Adult Swim action bumpers from 2002-2003 with a sort of Toonami style to them. I fell off with watching AS by the late '00s so I only briefly saw many of the bumpers you mentioned if I happened to be watching by that time. Still to this day if someone mentions something being specifically for adults I hear that Dust Devil D-Code song play in my head for a moment.
Dude your content is fantastic. What you talk about is truly very interesting and the way in which you present it is fantastic. You don't repeat unimportant details. You get straight to the point and the sound of your voice is wonderful. Keep it up man. This is a great channel
i agree. i have watched other videos on the same topic and they digress SO. MUCH. your writing // editing skills are greatly appreciated.
The background sound of The Dawn is Your Enemy is a looped section of a hip hop track Violence Is A Menace - Bola Akedemi
Its kind of funny to think about. I remember the old people swimming.
Now we all need some Captain KRB bumpers that appear in the middle of the episode
your channel is criminally underrated. entertaining and very informative
The only note I would like to make is that CN studios was originally Hannah-Babera owned by Turner before being sold to WB. Otherwise absolutely on point AF.
ETA: they admitted that basically the reason the block would get so bizarre as it went on into the night was to mess with stoners and college kids coming back from parties or who couldn't sleep. The idea was to become more and more of a fever dream as it drags on.
This is legit the coziest fucking channel omg
For me, it was the creepy "it's time for Adult Swim" in a flat voice over the seniors in the water that really stuck with me.
So underrated.
based and adultswimpilled
(im the viewer who suggested this btw)
Very based indeed
Xavier was really amazing, I'll have to watch your vid on that next. I only found you this week, but I'm already hooked.
Let’s go, new vid already.
Such an underrated channel. So glad I found it
the most memorable adult swim bump was the "last chance saloon" with the grizzly bear song
Definitely deserves more likes
Nice editing
The ones I remember the most are the all kids out of the pool ones from when they started
That overpass is the highway bridge between the adult swim building and turner broadcasting hq
The captain posts once more!
The “7,8,9” bumper was the one that scared me as a child.
You should do another one of these for Boomerang from Cartoon Network
This was a great video
Christina miller, YOURE FIRED
Excellent!
MTV did this first, or rather, an earlier evolution of it, if you will... and even if you won't.
less goooooo new krb vid
awesome
oh i thought this vid would be about the brackets of adult swim, haha ( --> [ ] these)
Why does the opening jingle sound so nostalgic?
Well, I turned 30 in 2000, but go on.
(Adult Swim was created by Gen-Xers, kids. You're welcome!)
The more important question is why don't you have adult swim bumpers?
pov: your young watching cartoon network but suddenly the robot chicken intro comes on at 8. 😰
What a adult swim
In Bulgaria when cartoon network ended for the day instead of adult swim we got some other program that only played old boomer movies
Answer:to scare the everloving crap
out of Little kids who watch at night.😂
Acid purposes guys not that hard
since 2014 they kept the live action HD bumps

Bumpers
Yo
I hate adult swim
I don't know if anybody else knows this, it feels long gone. but I remember a bumper that is just more disturbing than the "the dawn is your enemy".
I remember I was watching adult swim and I saw a start of a ARG where there was some cryptic text on screen (possibly codes), off set music before a single frame of someone face skin and all stretched out all around the screen like that queen in doctor who (Cassandra O'Brien.Δ17)
it was really fleshy and kinda disturbing as it still sticks to me today as something unsettling.
is this still known? also, i mildly regret looking up Cassandra O'Brien.Δ17 again. i hope I don't do that again.
What a adult swim
