By day, Cartoon Network is still the kid-friendly animated powerhouse it’s always been. When this channel goes to sleep, Adult Swim comes out to play. This late-night programming block is for those who grew up with the cartoons of the 90s and 2000s, bringing out the next step in the channel’s bizarre evolution. It also has helped bring some of the best new forms of television of the last 20 years.

Xavier: Renegade Angel's biggest strengths come from its brilliant mixture of surrealist, absurd humor, as well as having effective grounded and philosophical angles, with each episode having a profound statement on life. While it can be easily written off as the quintessential "strange show to watch at 4 AM", it has surprisingly amassed an effective cult following thanks to being unlike any other animated series out there.

The show takes a fun re-examination of hell as an everyday workplace filled with demons just trying to do their jobs and Satan as a primary manager who delights in putting his employees in harsh situations. Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell acts in many respects like a typical workplace comedy, making it even funnier when the violent and horrifying subject delightfully undercuts it.

From Sunday breakfast to fall drives to sleeping, Joe Pera's charming show is a genuine celebration of life’s tiny pleasures – there’s no catch. It’s an uplifting series that feels like a warm hug, being among many fans' nighttime companions and is among Adult Swim’s most unique offerings.

It's difficult to not compare the series to the many other animated adaptations of Superman, yet My Adventures of Superman does a great job of standing out as its world, as well as telling a compelling story that builds on the identities of these timeless characters.

The trio themselves make for a delightfully mismatched group in one of Adult Swim's old shows – from Master Shake being an unapologetic narcissist, Frylock being the exasperated "straight man," to Meatwad being childishly naïve. Nevertheless, Aqua Teen's essential episodes wouldn't be complete without them, as these three have become one of the most recognizable teams in cartoon history and helped make this show the cult powerhouse it became.

With his co-host, Hannibal Buress, Andre talks with many celebrities, often pranking them in gross, terrifying, and straight-up bizarre ways in one of the most unique talk shows. Andre often flips the switch on the general situation almost as fast as he built the setup, resulting in a viewing experience wherein you never really know what to expect.Not available
