This is what the lineup looks like currently...It might change though.

12:00 a.m. - Bleach
12:30 a.m. - Fullmetal Alchemist
1:00 a.m. - Durarara!!
1:30 a.m. - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
2:00 a.m. - FLCL
2:30 a.m. - Cowboy Bebop
3:00 a.m. - Bleach
3:30 a.m. - Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG
4:00 a.m. - Bleach
4:30 a.m. - Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
5:00 a.m. - Durarara!!
5:30 a.m. - Cowboy Bebop

From what I understand, a lot of these are place-holders, so there is still a possibility for new shows.  I mean, why would they air FMA and FMA:B? :/

This.  I wish they'd show older anime, actually.

I might wake up early and go running. I also might wake up and win the lottery. The odds are about the same.

They have Cowboy Bebop and Big O on like every week on AdultSwim.  I'm sure they'll go back to their roots in some cases with like Trigun, YYH, Inuyasha, Kenshin, etc.

But honestly, I want to see new series.  Toonami coming back I see is mainly a ploy to get back their older audience via nostalgia factors, and I really don't rewatch all the same things I've seen 6 -10 years ago.  I'd like to see some new series!

What a generic, awful looking schedule so far, I hope that changes, I want new shows, toonami could be something special if done right, maybe Sentai/Funi/NISA could all have 1 or 2 spots?

I hope so too Parkur. Would be great to see some new adult oriented anime on the air. There is plenty out there.

Heh for an older anime I would have loved to see some Ranma. Though it would be nice for some newer anime since I really don't keep up with that kind of stuff and haven't watched anything new for awhile.

You mean the series that are easily accessible via streaming, fansubs, and online dealers for dirt cheap?

Granted, I'd want new series on there just so new fans who believe the internet only exists for wikipedia and porn could learn that anime kept being made after 1996, but it wouldn't do anything for me personally.
