That's good that it's being shown on such a well known program but I've already watched it and if I do want to watch it again, I'll watch it on my computer

Off of the top of my head, I can think of Gurren Lagann, Darker Than Black, Black Lagoon, and, as someone previously mentioned, Baccano!.

I guess it depends on the licensing issues too. Gurren Lagann was already being aired on Sci-Fi's (now SyFy) Ani-Monday block.

Well, Sci Fi (I refuse to acknowledge Sy Fy) already aired TTGL, so I doubt adult swim would try to air it. Darker Than Black doesn't seem to fit the pattern of anime that they usually show, so they probably wouldn't air it. Black Lagoon is pretty much a complete genre cross of most of the anime that they air (it would confuse and scare the viewers from all the different emotions they witness... If you didn't notice, I tried to make a joke just now), so that's out (plus, it might not go over so well showing nazis and racial stereotypes... hell, all the stuff that makes it good might not go over well). Baccano! is actually the one I'm surprised they haven't tried to air. That and maybe Hellsing, though that has some of the problems as stated above.

Well.. adult swim is the main tv viewing of viz anime, funmation and aniplex which is controlled by turner tv which the parent company of Time Warner and sony which control a lot of stuff... long story short unless it from them nothing else will show on AS.

Its about damn time is all I have to say.. SyFy needs to air some better stuff since they actually go for the crazier anime.. maybe Hyakka Ryouran,Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World, or Shikabane Hime.. A.S. needs series like Katekyo Hitman Reborn, and Nabari no Ou. In fact I think Shikabane Hime would do well on either network.. not to mention the Dubs for Shikabane Hime, and Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World arn't that bad.. just saying though..

I heard about it coming to AS. Although I wont watch it on AS. I'll begin watching it via stream after I finish a few other anime first. Cant stand dubs.

And that post's run-on sentence doesn't make much sense. Both AS and Sci-Fi aired shows from multiple licensors. AS aired Blood+ and SF aired the original Blood, which both were distributed by Sony/Aniplex. Same with Funimation titles, as Chrono Crusade was on SF. And even Viz titles like MONSTER were on SF. Then there was Moribito, which was from Media Blasters, which aired on AS.
Speaking of which, I might watch Chrono Crusade soon. Maybe.
