Is Adult Swim turning itself into a mini-Netflix?? If you had read our exclusive preview of King Star King which is starting June 15th, you may remember that the JJ Villard series was originally pitched to be a companion piece to Superjail! which is returning the same day for its fourth season. Well, now it looks like King Star King is getting a change in distribution.

According to the official Facebook page for JJ VillardKing Star King will NOT be coming on after new episodes of Superjail!, rather all six episodes will be uploaded and available starting on June 15th. To be honest…sounds pretty awesome!

The first episode of King Star King accrued more than a quarter-million streams on Youtube since its upload about five months ago. For those that don’t know, the series follows King Star King a punk rock, modern day he-man who falls from the realm of the gods to land as a fry cook in a slummy waffle joint. King Star King must regain his memory to defeat the evil (and adorable) Spring Bunny and rescue his love, the megababe Princess Snow White. Only then will King Star King regain his rightful place in the heavens. See our full preview of the first season of King Star King here.
