[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;50931117]You know, I really get the feeling there's nothing under those censor bars.
If they were really that outlandish or offensive, Adult Swim would have made them create new openings. I think Sam is just "censoring" them and spinning ridiculous rumors just to see how pissed his fanbase gets. Sam likes to do shit like that.[/QUOTE]
you can pretty clearly see where they censor the james holmes logo, sometimes the edges of it pop up under the peace signs
i think the walls of (censored) text are all taken from manifestos of mass shooters and such, which i could see as something [as] would censor.
[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;50931431]If Adult Swim really wanted to censor Sam, they wouldn't have allowed the sketch in the last episode where Sam plays off of black stereotypes, or have Nick pretend to hang himself, or even allow the bullying sketch in the first episode considering the amount of teen suicides and mass school shootings, and of course, Jews Rock.
Adult Swim had to know what Sam did when they picked up the show. There's something else going on here. Sam's entire shtick is that he's a paranoid counter-culture alt-right comedian.[/QUOTE]
I disagree with the idea that Adult Swim isn't censoring anything just because they let Sam make fun of black stereotypes, their original logo is censored in every episode and it's something Sam and Andrew have expressed a lot of resentment towards. There's no reason for them to censor their own logo considering it's plastered everywhere [I]other[/I] than the show. It's very possible that Sam just went really over the top with the censored text and Adult Swim decided to cut it all last minute.

Also I think you presume to know a little more about Sam than you actually do.. I don't think it's fair to say his entire shtick is the alt-right thing when that's really only been a focus in the past like, year? If that?
[QUOTE=Gbps;50931594]What does Sam have to gain from censoring himself? He knows MDE's fans love the giant walls of text.[/QUOTE]
Stirring up commotion and controversy in the fanbase. "Censoring" big walls of text? That'll just keep fans watching to see how much is cut or censored. It's the perfect marketing tactic, a show that's so supposedly "edgy" that even Adult Swim thinks it's too much. Sam is a smart guy, he knows his fanbase.

How many Adult Swim execs would actually recognize those as things taken from mass shooters? It's something you actually have to look into and research.

Hell, during the boss skit you can see most of that logo.

If the rumors about the text being mass shooters' manifestos is true, they probably would have made the link while researching the text. If there's any conspiracy to be had here, it'd probably involve Sam censoring the text in order to sell uncensored DVDs or something after the season has run. It would be uncharacteristic of MDE to not feature walls of text.

Sam has become pretty well known lately for being alt-right counter culture, and at the very least being politically incorrect.
A lot of shit flies on Adult Swim. This is the channel that aired Moral Orel for [I]years[/I], and that was full of religious satire, and it got really dark too. And they still have dark stuff like Mr. Pickles. I'm not a fan of it, but it gets pretty ridiculously explicit and bizarre. There's not much in MDE that you can really censor on a channel like [as].
We'll find out if my theory is false when this episode airs:

There's nothing that has to do with mass shooters in that intro other than the original logo. If there are censor bars covering half the screen, than I guess I'm right.
A more plausible idea is that Sam added the bars in there with the other guys because [as] wanted the original logo out. A kind of kneejerk overcensoring of his own stuff.

The green text flashing in the background of that video is Elliot Rodgers' manifesto :v:

I think you're just getting a little ahead of yourself with the theories.. Just watch the show and check the subreddit if you want more info. I don't think the speculation is really going anywhere.
Being so cerebral about MDE is almost the opposite of how you should approach it. You aren't supposed to be trying to deconstruct the absolute true intentions because when it comes down to it even Sam's social media persona is an act.
The thing that makes MDE so fucking great is that they apologize for nothing and make everything a target of comedy, even themselves if the opportunity occurs. It's the opposite of playing it safe and the opposite of trying to hide any "smart" undertones, it's all there clear as day in what it aims to do and what point it's making.
The whole Sam Hyde FB and MDE 100 percent Reddit commentary is just another layer of comedy. The work speaks for itself and should be championed for doing so even if it isn't immediately funny to you.

Okay, you got me on that one. But I still think it's incredibly weird how they'd censor text associated with mass shooters, text that most people most likely haven't read, yet allow blackface, Charls threatening to shoot himself, and a sketch making fun of Jews and even Adult Swim execs. If anything, you'd figure the mass shooter stuff would be the things that would slip by.

Watch anything Wonder Showzen did, they touched a lot of subjects but nothing so universally despised and recent at the time. Repeated Mass Shooting references are a hotter button than questionable blackface or suicidal thoughts.
Making fun of your own studio execs has been done routinely on many shows, most popular of which being The Simpsons' multiple jabs at Fox.
Heck, the Jews Rock segment is a direct callback to the Slaves skit from Wonder Showzen.

Why do people keep saying this? Making fun of a voice isn't blackface. There was no blackface.
[QUOTE=The freeman;50932138]Hell, during the boss skit you can see most of that logo.[/QUOTE]
That isn't the logo, that's "world peace" written on top of one another.
Also, how many episodes are supposed to be in this season? I've heard six, but I've only found info on four.
[QUOTE=srobins;50932516]Why do people keep saying this? Making fun of a voice isn't blackface. There was no blackface.[/QUOTE]
It wasn't straight up shoe polish blackface, but Sam's face was darker and more brown. Compare him in thay sketch to him in anything else. He's a very pale dude.
[QUOTE=srobins;50932516]Why do people keep saying this? Making fun of a voice isn't blackface. There was no blackface.[/QUOTE]
i mean, it wasn't a [I]literal[/I] blackface, but still an obvious black caricature. it's just an accessible word to use for it
personally it was my favorite of the boyfriend skits. flowed really well, and i couldn't tell how much of it was scripted, and which parts were him just going crazy with the idea.
also this is the first thing i'm ever seeing from these guys. i was aware of them but i had no idea what they were about, it's a nice brand of absurdist humor
the funniest thing about MDE is that sometimes you can tell they're just improving it and making it up as they go. Not seeing much of it in the tv show tho. Them breaking character is pretty much classic MDE like in Moms and his TED talk
holy shit surprised they are gonna air the [sp]disabled pickup artist show thing[/sp] in the leaked episode
They don't play for me
Just started watching this, I don't really understand it but I like it.
[editline]23rd August 2016[/editline]
There's some really clever edits.
Here's the fourth episode: I personally thought it was kinda meh, compared to the other three.
