I hope it's not a full length show of TF2 because I have no idea how you could keep that interesting. Meet the _____ that are a bit more detailed, sure, but I dunno how a show or movie would play out for more then a few minutes. Still interesting!

[Sensei]

To be fair, if was basically just Red vs Blue on network TV, I'd give it a fair shot. Evidence points towards meet the Pyro though. Really what's most likely is that they'll air the short on [AS] first, in a sort of cross-promotional thing. Maybe there's be some Adult Swim items for TF2. But, it's much more fun to think about CRAZY THINGS.

Meet the Pyro it is indeed. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/06/25/valve-invite-you-to-meet-the-pyro-soon/

Valve has announced an Adult Swim collaboration and Valve has announced Meet the Pyro, both scheduled for this week as part of a huge 3-day-spanning update. They haven't actually confirmed that they are the same thing. They probably are, but that article doesn't actually seem to make a direct link between the two, it's just drawing the same assumptions with the same information that everyone else did when they heard the AS announcement.

EDIT: SO MANY PUNS in the comments, completely redeeming the article.

So....does that mean nothing is happening tonight?

[Sensei]

A. Go ask your mother.

Which seems to point to 'no'. But, you know they love to fuck with people.

Shameless bump because I changed the thread title just now when I really should have earlier.

Best responses about 'Meet the Pyro' is related to people bitching about ponies/bronies cause of that doofy donkey/unicorn thing...  Them folks seem pretty obsessed, thinking anything that remotely looks like a pony absolutely has something to do with MLP.

And now its ruined forever!

[kaijyuu]

Hey, he's totally a brony. He spreads flowers and sunshine, even -- nay, especially -- to people who don't want flowers and sunshine!

[Loud Whispers]

And now its ruined forever!

Yeah, about 46 minutes after the release someone made a snowman strawman comment of TEH BR0NEHS!!11!!, getting top comment and ensuing certain shitstorm. Queue pony spam to elicit rage, and elicited rage generating more rage. Kind of like a hurricane feeding a hurricane which feeds a hypernova.

Some poniespeople are entertained by that sort of trainwreck...
