Aqua Teen Hunger Force, the popular series and a staple of Adult Swim, is making a return to the network following an eight-year hiatus, according to an official announcement from the series’ original creators Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro.
“We are thrilled to be making more Aqua Teen Hunger Force episodes for a new generation of fans, building upon the most impressive collection of IP ever assembled,” Maiellaro and Willis said in a press release (h/t IGN). “Success is optimal and leads to quality.”
The series premiered on Cartoon Network back in 2000, joining Adult Swim in 2001, and would air through 2015.
The news of the series’ return comes on the heels of the latest feature film Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm which is set to arrive on HBO Max on February 8th, and then on Adult Swim on March 12th at midnight.
“Congratulations!” Maiellaro and Willis added. “You waited just long enough for Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm to be free on the service your parents pay for. I can’t wait for you to discover the project everyone has been talking about, and by everyone, I mean our personal twitter accounts. There is too much stuff to watch already. Breathe, and focus exclusively on Aqua Teen. Delete everything else.”
