Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a surreal, absurdist, relentlessly bizarre series about a milkshake, a box of french fries, and a ball of ground meat who live together in New Jersey and go on non-adventures. Because we live in an insane world, this show has been on for a decade, and has inspired both a movie and a bomb scare. Now, though, everything is changing. In a new video released by Adult Swim, a horrible Meatwad puppet explains, “The creative forces behind Aqua Teen Hunger Force are unhappy with the pilot of Aqua Teen Hunger Force and the subsequent 99 episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.” Thus, the show’s eighth season will feature a new setting — hello, Seattle! — and a new theme song by Josh Homme — farewell, Schoolly D! Also, the show has been retitled Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1.
pretty psyched for this

Rad. I haven't watched this show in quite a while. I assume it's still pretty awesome.
I wonder if this just means they absolutely ran out of ideas.

Aqua Teen had a pretty long perfect streak up until the movie at which point the focus seemed to shift from absurdist bliss to gonzo violence. I'll definitely still check this out, but expectations aren't the highest.

Out of ideas for the direction the show was heading now and having to go back to the original.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force is the best show that's ever graced Adult Swim, sir.

"This week's episode: The Creditor"
That episode was awesome!
"I HAVE THE POWER OF A THOUSAND SUNS!!"
I love how they used that line again. That's one of my favorite lines in the whole series.
