While Our Host Ned Hastings wasn't real in Super Trivia , he's real as hell in person. A foundational member of the Aqua Teen crew, Ned entered the Adult Swim world with Space Ghost Coast to Coast in 1999. After working on some of the show's best episodes, Ned contributed to a very early iteration of the Rabbot episode as an ATHF proof-of-concept. From there, he went on to shape the series with cr...

If you aren't hyped for Untitled Master Shake Project, then you a damn fool. Except not really cuz that's not a real movie. In Deleted Scenes, the ATHF crew re-purpose deleted scenes (and plot points) from the at-the-time unfinished Colon Movie For Theaters... except they do it in pure ATHF fashion; Shake and Meatwad don't really address the clips they are showing us, instead goofing off. Carl, ho...

After another successful deep dive into a season of Aqua Teen, it's time to look back on 2004's pop culture, Adult Swim lineup, and Season 3 as a whole.

If you're looking for someone  to dollsit for you.... Carl probably isn't your guy. Taking yet another break from writing solely for the Teens, Matt and Dave give us what we always wanted: an episode based on Carl.

If you had an all-powerful ancient tee shirt, what would you use it for? Good? Evil? Summoning the Easter Bunny? If you chose the latter, I've got the episode for you. In this "Meatwad gets powers" episode, Shake steals Osiris's shirt-- just for it to shrink down in the laundry. Dang.

Would you rather pawn the TV for a couple weeks, or get a job? Shake chose the latter, and lemme tell ya, he was WRONG. First of all, you have no TV watching time when you're working! Also, somebody has to watch your kid... and it shouldn't be Carl. In this episode, Frylock builds Robositter, who turns out to be horrible. Shake has been shooting t-shirts into the yard for weeks.
