Hi, i've got some questions for AS watchers :-)
1. What is "katie made this bump and didn't know tigers is a baseball team" about? Is it a link for something was in the past (a bump? is it here?)?
2. What is Stoner Series?
3. Where is new bumps? I'm so bored :-D
1. I'm going to dig up the relevant bump about Katie. If I remember correctly there were two separate bumps, the first polling the ladies of WS what their predictions for football playoffs were. The second aired later, something to the effect of "Let's see how they did" - then the poke at Katie for not knowing during that bump. The "katie made this bump and didn't know tigers is a baseball team" then ran for the rest of the night in place of the [adult swim] tag at the end of the bumps. I'll look up those bumps and see how I did :roll:
original bump: http://www.bumpworthy.com/bumps/1747
second bump: ?
2. 'Everyone' is always complaining that [as] programming only appeals to 'stoners' - the Stoner Series bumps are a spoof of (I think, I don't get HBO) the intros that say "and now, the HBO Original Series - {insert show here}"
I dug up an old bump from 2005 that I thought was relevant, it's the one at the bottom of this search for "stoner" (http://www.bumpworthy.com/?m=browse&s=stoner)
3. We're working out the kinks of the new HD bumps, which have turned out to be kinkier than anticipated.
:oops: .... that didn't come out right at all.
thanks for 1 and 3 :-)

was that an original programming or something special (or this just appeared before usual programming sometime?)?
the main problem was finding the "correct" translation of "stoner" (drug-addict, right?). i assumed that was "old" series :-D

It appeared before usual programming, no new episodes or special blocks or anything. And yeah, "stoner" is usually someone who consumes drugs, generally a specific leafy drug that has a reputation of making people "low and slow" if you will :-P I don't know if you've seen the movies Pineapple Express, The Big Lebowski or any of the Cheech and Chong movies, but those explain the stoner stereotype pretty well. And, they're hilarious :lol:

They were joke intros that just ran the one week, if I remember correctly.

Yep, November 2nd to November 8th, 2009.
Much thanks for everyone, now i got it :-)
HELL YES!
I can't read anything from them, but I still happy :-)
Thanks!
We'll get 'em :wink: in the meantime I think mongo did a great job with what he had on his SD feed.
Of course he did, no doubt :-D
meanwhile, 2x2 started to air new cards too, have to get them :wink:
I haven't seen any of the new "HD" bumps with my still ancient SD STB, so I can only imagine how skewed it will be. Though they seem fine when I watch them here.
I left the borders in :-P Otherwise they'd stretch out and look weird.
