* Jon Hamm and Adam Scott's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nN1bmTI5qjg shot-for-shot remake]] of the ''SimonAndSimon'' opening credit sequence from ''The Greatest Event in Television History''. It must be seen to be believed.

* The loss of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' in September 2021 laid a considerable blow to Adult Swim in terms of scheduling and revenue. It seemed rather unlikely the network would ever receive anything else from Disney, with ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' set to expire in 2023 as well. So, what does Adult Swim do to compensate for one of the hugest losses in their history? ...bring back classic, previously expired Fox favorites ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' and - quite shockingly - ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''.

** ''[[Anime/DragonBallKai Dragon Ball Z Kai]]'' has been doing so well on Toonami that it eventually convinced the higher ups to give the show an encore airing during regular [adult swim] hours, starting off the block at 8:00 PM. They also tried the same thing with ''Manga/OnePiece'' at 8:30 PM, though that one didn't work out due to bad timing and ratings. As of May 2nd, two episodes are aired every Saturday night to lead off, not Toonami, but Adult Swim.
