RTX Recap: Rooster Teeth Announces “Sex Swing: The Animated Series”
Swing on over.
During the Funhaus panel, it was announced that an animated series inspired by the gaming group was currently in production inspired by the fictional rock band Sex Swing, a faux group known for playing Rock Band/Guitar Hero instruments.
No official word yet as to when the series will premiere nor what the premise of the show is really about, but we’ll update when we hear.
Short of getting Roiland back, which I'm sure isn't going to happen, I don't even think they could get much better than the new voices from the previous season. And the ratings for season 7 weren't much lower on average than for season 6; it was pretty much just a normal season-to-season drop that most likely would have happened regardless.
I mean, look at the actual averages:
Season 1 - 1.57 million viewers Season 2 - 1.97 million viewers Season 3 - 2.33 million viewers Season 4 - 1.52 million viewers Season 5 - 0.96 million viewers Season 6 - 0.56 million viewers Season 7 - 0.42 million viewers
Ever since season 3, it had been having steep drops even with Roiland still involved; the season 6 to 7 drop is actually the smallest-percentage drop it's had since it started dropping, and if anything it's possible that changing the voice actors actually *boosted* interest a bit and prevented it from dropping even more.
