The following episodes have their own pages:


  • Fartcopter is about a sinister Creepy Child who becomes obsessed with a toy called "Fartcopter", which is pretty much Exactly What It Says on the Tin, leading his family to stage an intervention. The kid appears to reform his ways, but he then proceeds to murder his entire family with a fart noise so intense it causes their internal organs to explode. Sweet dreams!
  • Unedited Footage of a Bear. What starts off as being Exactly What It Says on the Tin is interrupted by an ad for a decongestant that slowly goes off the rails and becomes the closest thing the channel has gone to genuine horror. The tie-in website, accessible by clicking "Skip Ad" in the linked video, is equally disturbing.
  • Flayaway is an infomercial about a new beauty procedure for women that removes unwanted body hair and blemishes by cutting off all their skin. What follows is 11 minutes of some of the grossest imagery Adult Swim has ever aired, including the hideous costume portraying someone who has just gone through the procedure (which, if you click on that link, is the image that appears as the video is loading).
