I haven't had a reason to watch Toonami, let along Adult Swim, in a very long time.
First episode premiered a few hours ago, it was perfect. The more mature tone of the show emphasizes how Genndy Tartakovsky wanted to tell this story and now he has the free reign to do so. Super pumped to see a finale to one of the most incredible animated shows of my generation finally fleshed out and realized. That being said, I can't wait for next week. Anyone else see it?

I've seen plenty if ads for the show's return, and considering I loved it as a kid, I'll likely tune in at some point. It was a show I always wondered how it ended, but I never remembered to look up. I'll probably marathon the old episodes again sometime to catch up for the new ones.

I watched it this morning and it felt exactly like returning to the show as if it had never ended. The new set up for what Jack has been up to and gone through goes a long way towards making his character a lot more tragic and interesting, so I can't wait to see where this story goes.

I never actually watched the show before, but the trailer for the new episodes impressed me so much that I started watching the original series. It's excellent so far.

Samurai Jack was always a great series. I'm looking forward to watching, but I don't know how, yet. Is there a way to watch it online?

This last episode was phenomenal. I was a little hesitant after the first one, but I am bought and sold now. Also, since fifty years have passed, I want to see this character come back:

I just watched the Haunted House episode from season 3. Fucking terrifying. Between that and the gratuitous violence against robots with oil as a proxy for blood, I'm really surprised that this aired on cartoon network. Happy. But surprised.

I ended up starting to re-watch the old series while waiting for the new set of eps to start. I would love for this to keep going since it's been terrific so far, but I think I'd prefer if this was it and we get a proper ending. Open ended or close ended, a spot to close the book satisfyingly would be the cherry on top of this revival.
And if you keep missing the current episodes, Toonami airs a re-run of the entire block on Sundays on-line for everyone, no strings attached, though it's just for that day and it's not on-demand, what's on is on when you go to the stream. Otherwise it'll likely show up somewhere sooner rather than later after the run ends.
