| Assassination Classroom (via Tumblr) |
The Top Pick is Adult Swim's really good Toonami show Assassination Classroom, which follows Koro-sensei, a super-powerful tentacled being that intends to destroy the Earth in a few months. But he wants to be fair, so the government gives him a teaching job with some of the rough kids, who are also openly tasked with assassinating him. It's a bonkers concept, and I love it. He is really learning to care for those kids.
Elsewhere, Robert Downey Jr. talks to animals, the search for D.B. Cooper continues, Christmas movies will never die, and Ghoulie goes to the basement.
