GiTS SAC will replace OPM on February 4th. Just what we need, another rerun that has aired a million times.

A new season of Samurai Jack is being made for Adult Swim Toonami. 10 episodes in length, TV14 minimum, set to premier 2017.

Adult Swim is funding two new 6 episode seasons of FLCL. Expected release is late 2017/early 2018.

Ok, last week was shit, nobody was surprised. This week we have huge schedule changes. For Toonami we have Super, Kai Buu and Unicorn starting. Super is a new concept we have never had happen before, it premieres outside Toonami and then reruns right at the start. So let's take this one chunk at a time
>Super
It's 8pm premiere was completely unadvertised and brought a million viewers, not bad at all. Time will tell if people prefer that one or the 11:30 one. The 11:30 showing pulled average Toonami viewers with 1.3mil
>Kai
To many people, this isn't "new", but more of an expectation. Even so, 1.1mil viewers is a little weak for a dub premiere
>Gundam
Very poor showing for the first episode. Admittedly the first episode is pretty boring so maybe the next will do better. Interesting note, some ratings sites still list this as IBO.

As for everything else, pretty average. Good news for Jojo, it held an excellent amount of viewers from Kai, a big improvement from last year. Bad news, everything after Unicorn failed to make the top 100 chart. It's early to say, but having a double showing of Super appears to be hurting the rest of Toonami.
