Where was that posted? I don't know if it will be 267 it's a bit out the way and bit too close to movie channels as well to be honest.
It will be interesting to see what Turner will announce in their next batch of press releases.
As far as I know the UK is by in large the biggest market for adult swim's stuff in Europe. I don't think it's a channel as per say, I'm certain the Swiss AS is a block on Cartoon Network and the French one is an on demand service for IPTV which the UK has had for some while now........
The guys at the [adult swim] facebook page answers about a [adult swim] channel, seem to get more vague each time. They're planning something, thats for sure.
To be honest doubtful for series but wouldn't rule out the occasional movie or two. From what I've heard the rights are too expensive for little in return viewer wise.
I don't think its a definite descision to shut down TCM2 yet, but all signs but to yes.
Do you know personally that there's stuff going on behind the scenes at Turner?
Until we get official confirmation of TCM2 shutting down, I wouldn't be that optimistic of Adult Swim starting. It is unusual to plan out TCM schedule and not bothering with TCM2's would point to it's imminent closure.
There is something up at Turner no doubt about that.
Sky Atlantic would my choice to pick it up. I don't know TNT to commision a fair amount of their own stuff, like the Closer, Hawthorne, Without a Trace and obviously Falling Skies. It's probably just more profitable to sell their shows to UK broadcasters in the long run like HBO rather than...
To be honest, I know that Turner trawls those sites, so if they haven't put it up, I would expect it to be deleted soon.
Surprised your Wikipedia page has lasted so long........

Told you Turner patrols those websites......
Think there is going to be plenty of life left in this story yet.......

However I did find this little nugget, an aparrent slogan as well - A Place For Adults.
Is a channel not far away?
I've more or less been told it is a broadcasting license for a channel (not from Turner themselves though) but don't get your hopes up as some companies will often by the license as they're relatively cheap but never bother launching the channel...... Though this is supposedly quite rare...
I've post that link on Adult Swim UK's twitter page they haven't replied so far. What do they say about silence? I would love to see it launch but I really don't think it will happen anytime soon.
I think I read somewhere their website attracts around 80k different viewers a month. Of course the license doesn't necessarily confirm it's a formality it's going to launch just means they are definitely looking at it.
EDIT: I feel they're definitely a quite large audience that adult swim...
Really depends what they put on it, as I said if they put something like Falling Skies on it then Sky will be more liable to push it on their advertisements.
I've got a funny feeling your action block (that's if they do have one) would have shows like Heroes and like in favour of anime.
I don't know what they've got planned but I'd hazard a guess that some adult swim shows like Childrens Hospital will probably appear and probably some UK comedy shows as well. I've got a funny feeling Falling Skies will probably appear on it as well.
