I thought it was funny. But then, I kinda share their dry, sarcastic sense of humour.

I almost fell for it but realized that AS can't be THAT dumb to do it again. But still, I was little ticked that they would joke about it.

At times I think that they ARE THAT DUMB! Especially since they had their chat running at the same time. That's dumb and dumber! One sick notion I heard was that it was a way to gage popularity of the show. DUMB! O.K. I didn't believe it ether! The other was it was a Trick before the Treat. Come On! That's Real Dumb!
I think that they could have least say that their sorry!

They did say they were sorry. They've said they were sorry all week. So of course they're going to make the most of this little slipup in one way or another.

I did.
I was playing some Super Mario 3 on the Gameboy Player and stop for Big O. When I switched over, it was about a couple of seconds into Ep 20.
I sware, those people over at WS have way too much time on their hands.

I fell for it and i thought It was great! People who didn't like it probably don't have that... eh, never mind, I don't want to inadvertantly insult anyone here.

Too late! You just did.
Anyway, the joke may have been humorous but it wasn't the smartest thing to do. What if the joke lasted a few minutes longer and some people started to switch channels because they though it was ep.20 all over again? The marketing department would not have been thrilled.

For anyone who missed:
Adult Swim started showing Episode 20 AGAIN. Then, after about 30 seconds of it, a message popped up claiming it was a joke, "Thou not Trusting," or something similar. Episode 26 was shown after the message.

It hit me as a shock at first, that they could be so dumb as to repeat their mistake of last week, thereby royally screwing up their future scheduling and igniting a fan debacle of epic proportions. But then they revealed the joke and I had a good laugh. It was a very clever "gotcha!" The final episode itself was awesome and worth the wait. But it still left way too many unanswered questions. Perhaps that's to leave room for a possible Season 3. (^_*)

Ah, the miracles of VHS AND DVR technology.
They said "We had to do it." Then the trusting message. And then cue ep. 26.
