Adult Swim News: JJ Villard’s Fairy Tales ; Rick and Morty ; Samurai Jack

Deathwish skateboards has released a limited number of merchandise inspired by Adult Swim’s JJ Villard’s Fairy Tales which will be premiering it’s season finale this Sunday Night on Adult Swim (check your local listings).

The number of items available are slim, a skateboard and a long-sleeved shirt released just in time for July, but if you’re a fan this may be the best chance you get at any merchandise for the show because I’ve been watching As Seen On Adult Swim every week and I have yet to see anything from that show.

Synopsis:

JJ Villard’s Fairy Tales is a new, twisted, fun take on the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tales like Cinderella and Snow White. The charm and cuteness of the original stories remain, but now they’ve been updated and packaged into a ball of raw, visceral, gross weirdness. The animated quarter hour series is created, and executive produced by JJ Villard (King Star King) and produced by Cartoon Network Studio. Voice talent this season includes Linda Blair, Warwick Davis, Robert Englund, Corey Feldman, Alan Oppenheimer, Jennifer Tilly, and Villard himself among others.

Rick and Morty raced up the Digital Entertainment Group charts right up into the top 10 at the #10 position which is the highest up they’ve been for the charts that count digital sales all season long. This ranking is for all of last week post the show’s season four finale which I’m sure is a related deal seeing as how the finale was excellent.

Synopsis:

Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland’s hit creation centred upon the freewheeling science fiction adventures of flawed genius Rick Sanchez alongside his anxiety and morality-stricken grandson Morty.

 

IGN.com took part in an interview and play-through for the upcoming new game, Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time. The game reportedly takes place during Episode CI and is slated to release this Summer for all major consoles. Creator Genndy Tartakovsky takes part in the interview and guides us through a bunch of the gameplay and gives additional insight on where the game is going.
