While it was admirable for Adult Swim to welcome voices outside of their generally left-leaning programming and found some promise starting out with this Ted Talk prank, we hope they find something better than anything that’s a comedic platform with ties to the racist, White Nationalist fringe group known as the “alt-right”.

Now that Million Dollar Extreme is officially canned and Brett Gelman left the network in protest, Adult Swim has the chance for a real rebirth now. They have some room to to move towards being more inclusive with their development and programming slates, especially when it comes to giving credence to female perspectives. 

In that spirit, may we suggest giving Natalie Palamides, Jo Firestone, Jamie Loftus, or Kyle Mizono their own Adult Swim shows or, at least, be brought into the fold. They’d definitely keep the weird going at the network in their own unique, great way.
