Adult Swim has been in the headlines recently thanks to a now-viral complaint
against the program. Over the weekend, a user on Twitter was less-than-
pleased when they noticed the content airing on Adult Swim. After sharing a
complaint about Adult Swim's impact on kids, the Internet rose up to defend
the praise late-night block, and it seems the program itself has now
responded to the ordeal.

Over on Twitter, Adult Swim caught the attention of fans after it tweeted a
response to the ordeal. It was there the official page showed netizens the
bumper that pops up throughout the program that the offended critic must have
missed.

Of course, if you watch the late-night block, you will be familiar with the
bumper. A short message is screened every so often during a commercial break
that reminds viewers that the content airing now may not be suitable for
everyone.

"Adult Swim may contain mature material some viewers might not find
suitable," the bumper reads.

As you can see below, fans were quick to applaud this succinct response as it
is all Adult Swim needed to do. The program has never shied away from its
dark aesthetic and edgy content. From Rick and Morty to The Venture Bros.,
Adult Swim has taken pride in being irreverent, and no amount of complaints
will change that. And for those who might not like such shows, well - they
are the reason why this bumper airs so frequently.

What do you make of this controversy and Adult Swim's response...? Let me
know in the comments or hit me up on Twitter @MeganPetersCB to talk all
things comics and anime!

Hard to Miss
IT IS LITERALLY CALLED ADULT SWIM. Like it is in there name.

This warning has the same effect as the parental advisory sticker
you had in the 2000s

Troll Game on Point
I was 8 when I seen Friday the 13th, and I'm not running around,
killing teenagers, while wearing a hockey mask. *slides hockey
mask under bed* And I grew up a perfectly sane person.

So Tragic

and turned into a pickle

This old bumper ran before the latter half of Eureka Seven (and
likely some other stuff too) comes to mind too.

Parent of the Year...?
Well, my 4yr old can't read and was up at 3:00am watching this
trash. You have undone all the hard work I have done as a parent.
Shame on you.
