    I remember being at my grandparents' house for Xmas and we kids were allowed control over the TV while the adults were on the patio & the unrelated "cousins" who were brought up really Christian wouldn't let me turn the channel (even though we were unsupervised) to the Simpsons because their parents told them it was "of the Devil"

      I'm talking an experience I had in the early 2010s over at a friends house. No Adult Swim but shitty ass Simpsons? That was allowed. If you were lucky, Fox or one of their affiliates would be rerunning an old episode alongside a new one but that's it. I was as mad as hell because [adult swim] was and still is the shit, at least once you wade through the Fox reruns early on.

          Don't forget Primal, Joe Pera Talks With You (Definitely my recent favorite. An actually wholesome [as] show is a welcome addition in times like this), Eric Andre, Black Jesus, Black Dynamite, ATHF and a bunch more. If it weren't for the shit Fox reruns it'd be the most experimental shit on television even if it can be hit or miss.
