National Lampoon and Adult Swim

Hey, guys -

As you might have seen on tonight's show, we kinda took some jabs at National Lampoon. Although Kevin explained a little bit about why we felt the need to call them out, we, unfortunately, couldn't show all of their "spoof" video on air because of language. So I encourage anyone who was confused by what we did to check it out for yourself.

You'll see what a hateful, envious, and most unforgivably, unfunny rant it is. And for what? To rip on the Adult Swim guys because they're entertaining and National Lampoon hasn't been for 30 years?

So we decided to call them out for being obnoxious.

-Eric, the writer

    yea donal, I just saw that part of the show now.
    Kevin was crying over how racist and homophobic it was yet, if you watch the show you could point offensive stuff every few minutes, and kevin if you're complaining about that, you shouldn't be watching family guy.
    Sorry about the lateness, Ive kinda stopped watching after pinky guy started co-hosting.

    If NL is so irrelevent, why are you fanbois so up in arms over it? Why do Lane, Perrera and Senaboy feel the need to cry and PMS over it on the air?

    And when did AS become a sacred cow? They make fun of things all the time. Some people would take it as a compliment.

    Are AS and its fanbois that hypocritical?

    hmmm, notice they didnt put anything decent in that bit?, well Futurama is great, dont know about the rest, least they didnt say anything about the Venture Bros, the harveybirds#!t thing is true, the family guy thing is def true and they're not even showing the new eps on there, it's on fox. birdcrap and sealab with their recycled images, guess creativity isn't easy these days.
    But I'm sure most of you are under 17 and are all about potty jokes and what not, so thats why most of you think adult swim is the best. So c'mon little sheep fall over the edge of the cliff.

    Lol, IDK if anyone caught what Adult Swim did. They made light of this Lampoon attack. They said they would feel honored if Lampoon had done anything actually worthwhile lately. They said they would also love to satirize them, if they had done anything worth satirizing. Lol. It made me laugh.

    I don't pity them at all! Their humor has gone the way of Chevy Chase! That was about as funny as Chevy's TV Show.

    I love that Howard Stern let him have it and I am loving it that the Adult Swim fans are pestering 'Poon

    I feel almost sorry for NL with all the anti-NL comments on here. I guess the limited pity I have for them is expressed as such... NL makes good movies once in a while. Their older movies (Vacation) are still funny, even today. Adult Swim, on the other hand, is very funny in a different way. Some of their content remains exceeding funny to me after numerous viewings. I frankly see this video as a disappointment. I was expecting something much better. The thing just lacked any basis in truth and was very shallow on the wit. :( boo!

    I used to be an software engineer for a company called brightpoint, in Indianapolis, IN-To make a long story short the owner of Brightpoint Mark Howell, also owns NL and he had some employees over to watch a rough cut of their new movie starring Bud from "married with children" and a washed-up bon jovi, the room went totally silent, and people soon filed out of his basement movie theater. Its called Trouble With Frank, I would tell you to look for it in theaters, but its going straight to video. AS def has the last laugh

    JayPink - I hope you meant that "humor is *subjective*", not "objective". Which it certainly is, given that you considered John Saleeby's Flash lampoon of the ADULT SWIM intertitles to be funny. Personally, I found it to be ponderous and juvenile - sorry, but cracks about gays and dropping the F-bomb stopped being "daring" when Jimmy Carter was President.

    Yeah, the ADULT SWIM bumps have gotten repetitive (though the one taking on NATIONAL LAMPOON was pretty funny!), and I'm not in love with a lot of their programming. But then again, just b/c I don't like it doesn't make it's invalid....

    Yeah, I must say that National Lampoon as old now unsucessful as they are hit the nail right on the head. Just hearing you guys rant on how great and innovative Adult Swim's blaintly horrible and not to mention retarded animation is proves every point they made. If you seriously think Aqua Teen Hunger Force is "Awesome" you should be shot. It makes me sick when people with so little actual talent can make so much money over actaully skilled people with a life. Too bad they are making so much money off of playing Anime for fanboys so they can continue to make this crap.

    Any network that could raise Family Guy from cancellation hell AND finally give the nation a chance to see Neon Genesis Evangelion does not deserve the mean spirited and completely unfunny so-called "bashing" that National Lampoon dished out. If anyone hasn't seen the flash animation that NL did, don't. These guys don't deserve the money they make on hits to their site.

    I didn't get to see Friday's ep. so I'm pretty bummed about not getting to see Seanbaby and Kevin's witty comments on National Lampoon, but I'm sure they gave it a good lashing. I enjoy Adult Swim. It's good fun. I don't enjoy grouchy people who rant on about everything. They aren't good fun.

    Lord. mastercheif912003, it isn't ALL about a race issue, and if you think that you are totally lost. They are making fun of Adult Swim because they're funny, and NL isn't. Period. I don't see Dave Chappelle flipping off SNL because his own show doesn't cut the mustard. It's about respect - AS is a funny show. I remember when I first started watching it, my 5am gym routine was put on a 5 month hiatus cuz I was always too tired to go in. The last time I thought about NL was when I saw "Christmas Vacation" about to air for the 15,392nd time on TBS, and flipped the channel off.

    If they want to make fun of AS, have at it, they're grown ass people and they can take it. Taking their jealousy at AS and using derrogatory, inflamatory comments about culture and sexuality to make it stick is childish.

    WTH? I wasn't paying much attention to the AOTS bumbs either, but why did NL say that crap? That was a retarded thing form a retarded company. And as far as calling hip hop 'black music' what would those idiots call 'white music?' Certainly rock couldn't be considered that since it has black roots as well. That act made no sense by them, and on Sunday night, I can't wait for the response from AS.

    If Lampoon didn't suck before, they suck now. That crap was borderline racist, blatantly homophobic, and showed a whole assload of jealousy on their part because no one cares about them anymore. They haven't been relevant in more years than THEY care to count, and what I think is really laughable is that they'll read all this disgust at their joke as a whole bunch of people with no sense of humor. But I challenge them... I challenge them to go into their local shopping mall, and make a comment about people thinking they're cool because they listen to "Black Music". I hope they can maintain a smile through the ass beating they'll receive *lol*

    Wtf? I think that the guys from Williams Street would be the first to laugh at the parody. If you can't laugh at yourself, how can you do anything funny? Adult Swim is just too cool to make fun of? I'm an Adult Swim fan and I have a few points to make:

    1. Futurama really isn't that funny. At all.

    2. Tom Goes to the Mayor sucks. Bad.

    3. I'm not tired of the old Family Guy
    episodes, but I could see how someone could be.

    4. Calling hip-hop 'Black Music' doesn't make you a racist. That's what it is.

    5. These guys at National Lampoon are obviously fans of Adult Swim. Jesus, you woulda had to watch thousands of bumps to get it dowmn that good.

    Don't get yer panties in a bunch about it. Take a friggin' joke. Jeez.

    National Lampoon, Inc.
    Corporate Overview

    National Lampoon (Nasdaq OTC BB: NLPN) is and has been one of the leading brands in comedy for the last 30 years. National Lampoon is active in a broad array of entertainment activities, including feature films, television programming, interactive entertainment, home video, comedy audio CD's and book publishing.

    to Jay: It's great that you put something on the internet that makes you and your friends laugh. Even then, you say that it had SOME funny lines in it. Obviously it was in poor taste, maybe next time you should just keep it to yourself. If you were the decision maker that really put that up on NL's site, maybe you should have thought a little harder about how popular [Adult Swim] is these days. Although I must admit that this will be the most publicity NL will ever receive from young and intelligent individuals. So on that note: good job Jay!

    You're 100% correct -- humor is completely objective, and anything you do not find funny is not. If you'd be kind enough to print out a list of what everyone else should think is funny, I'll be happy to use it as a reference chart. Sadly, I've been unable to find anyone on the Internet so far with an opinion. It's a good thing you came along!

    Hey, all - my name's Jay. I'm the Managing Editor of the National Lampoon website.
    I'm actually a big fan of Adult Swim. I own the first season of Harvery Birdman and I think it's absolutely brilliant. The Adult swim idea was submitted to me by the very funny John Saleeby (also a frequent contributor to McSweeneys) -- I chuckled at it and thought it'd be fun to put up.

    I don't choose the movies that NL puts out. Truth be told, I don't WATCH the movies NL puts out. I mean, I'm in a tiny office at the absolute back of the building. I've got as much inside info as the next guy what NL's gonna attach their name to next.

    I'll eat crow here that it obviously wasn't received in any way like I'd meant. I DO like Adult Swim; I'm under no illusions about the films my boss's boss's boss's boss puts out. I'm just a 28-year-old dude trying to put up stuff that makes me and my friends laugh. The Adult Swim piece had some funny lines in it.

    Animal house was good the first few times. Nothing they have done ever hold a candle to Adult Swim. I just don't see how they can spoof on them after 30 years of sub par hilarity. This satire just shows how tired and devoid of humer they are. I could die a happy man if I never see a national lampoon's movie again. And seriously who thought van wilder was funny.

    Adult swim is freakin awsome!!! Aqua Teen Hunger Force is the greatest show EVER!!!(aside from Attack of the Show of course.) So surely it at least deserves some recognision for a select few of its shows.(Family Guy, ATHF, FLCL, Samurai Champloo, Harvey Birdman, Space Ghost, American Dad, and Venture Brothers.)

    It was pretty pathetic, not very funny, but to them they probably thought it was, until they realized how every fan of adult swim will kill if anyone says anything against it, adult swim is like my bible every night, and I will now be forced to kill national lampoon because of this... S***s for them!!!

    way to stand up for adult swim. i doubt if there's anyone who can't find humor in what they do. the spectrum of comedy that they provide is almost unequalled. and what has national lampoons done in the last 10 years other than make a bunch of crap 'teen' movies relying on nothing but sexual innuendo and gross-out humor to get their pity laughs.

    way to tell it like it is

    Well if national lampoon was looking for another way to be even lamer, they've found, and done it. Van Wilder wasn't cool, that has to be the most cliche'd movie ever(any movie with tara reid(yawn-tara reid as a reporter??? yea, and i'm really a space astronaut who flies into space without a suit and shuttle at will), and dorm daze blew, like lines in studio 51. And that thing about adult swim and black music(sorry we all don't wanna put our hands up and shout)r.i.p. belushi. Way to drop the ball, and tell us national lampoon is a bunch of racists. And besides calling out adult swim thru black and white cards, what is this high school.??? Be a man, and call out adult swim on aots LIVE PUSS_IES....

    The very little bit of TV that I watch is usually either G4 of Adult Swim... and the movies I watch sure aren't those put out by National Lampoon. He just seems pissed that people are enjoying the Network, and no one watches National Lampoon's stupid fart jokes and aren't atracted to all the nudity in the films...

    What was with them saying listen to "black music?"

    By the way, there are tons of new National Lampoons movies that I keep seeing come in at work, but I can't recall anyone buying any of them...

    Wow, National Lampoon, a company I thought died with the 80's, really took the high road here. They might have lost some of their fanbase, which shouldn't be hard, since the Lampoon fanbase as it stands today is 4 people in Des Moines, Iowa still watching Animal House for the 4,000th time.

    Congratulations, National Lampoon. You have made fun of not only Adult Swim, but homosexuals and African Americans as well. What a trifecta.

    To be fair, National Lampoon *did* made me laugh - back when I went to college in the late 1970s. This, on the other hand, was like trying to read one of those right-wing "comic strips" like DAY BY DAY or MALLARD FILLMORE - virulently out of touch and not remotely humorous.

    I agree, BTW, with aphex on getting in touch w/National Lampoon - if you do, don't be hostile or flame them. They'll just think it means they're "edgy" or something....

    Wow National lampoon is sooo edgy, they use words like "F**" and "S***". I think I wanna buy all their movies now....wait a second i'm pretty sure I could get them all out of the 99 cent bin for less than 10 bucks. Of course they have to pay me $5 to even consider picking up "dorm daze".
    I'm pretty sure that one week of adult swims ratings equals that of anyone who has ever viewed any of the C**k and ball torture that is National Lampoon's movies. _-Miles-_

    Well Adult Swim won't be getting their revenge through Robot Chicken, because though they are currently working on a new season of it, the new episodes won't be around for quite a while yet. But they will more than likely have something to say in their bumps.

    I wonder if National Lampoon will try to take a little revenge out on AoTS, if they do I hope that at least make it funny.

    Well apparently National Lampoon thinks little of their viewers in believing that using words like gay and motherf***er will make people laugh.

    It is completely blatent crap, and like whats already been say:

    To rip on the Adult Swim guys because they're entertaining when National Lampoon hasn't been for 30 years.

    It is just lame. John Saleeby needs to have a good ole' fashioned beat down, because apparently he has too much time on his hands to make junk like that.
