Tim and Eric are back with a new Tim & Eric’s Bedtime Stories special that will air November 6th at 11:30 p.m. E/P on Adult Swim. The special was created by Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim, and produced by Abso Lutely. The November special (expanded from 15 minutes to 30) features a shady character (Heidecker) helping Gary Royce (Wareheim) overcome a strange addiction; for a price. This episode was written, directed by, and stars Heidecker and Wareheim (Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!), James Madio (Hook), and Johnny “Roast Beef” Williams (Goodfellas).

Back in 2013, they aired a Halloween special titled Tim & Eric’s Bedtime Stories: Haunted House and in 2014 Bedtime Stories ran as a series that included 7 episodes. During the series run, it included many guest stars such as M. Emmet Walsh, Bob Odenkirk, Zach Galifianakas, Lauren Cohan, Jason Schwartzman, Jimmy Kimmel, Shira Lazar, Brent Weinbach, and John C. Reilly.

Amongst that 250+ page assortment of what sounds like great content, is an interview with Tim & Eric, in which the duo chat about upcoming projects that any Tim & Eric fan is going to be oh so very hyped about. There’s a handful– two shows, a movie, and a CD– all within a few pages’ interview with the newborn magazine. Let’s do a run through, shall we?

• First up, the guys have a show coming named Tim & Eric’s Bedtime Stories. In the show, Tim is the pep pep and Eric is a young boy, and in each episode Tim tucks his son in and tells him a bedtime story. Eric explains in the interview that it’s a Twilight Zone-esque anthology series.
• Then, there’s Tim & Eric Go to The Moon. In the future, there’s a colony on the moon that Tim & Eric end up going to where they assume they’ll be a big deal– but instead they’re just regular workers helping to paint the base. They later find other civilizations, including a mutant race that Eric says is also “incestuous”. A dark show, Eric explains, but still funny.
• He also quickly mentions an idea they have with Zach Galifianakis in which Zach follows TMZ guys around to basically do what they’re doing to celebs on TMZ to them.
• The Trillion Dollar Movie, sequel to Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie, has been outlined. Basically, the guys are (spoilers! Watch out!) in prison for killing all those people at the end of the first film, and they’re trying to not be executed. There will be fake product placement from a company named Wingers, a sort-of Subway that sells circular sandwiches and from other companies.
• They’re also working on a follow-up to Awesome Record, Great Songs.

We don’t have an issue, personally (though since I know this is around, I’m going to be trying my damnedest to get an issue) , but a Tim & Eric fan tumblr was nice enough to post some info and a couple of small snippets of the interview. Thanks to them. They also included the fact that the interview ends with a note from the magazine that right before the magazine went to press, Adult Swim made deals with Tim & Eric to pick up both Bedtime Stories and Go to The Moon. Production for Bedtime Stories begins soon. So, that’s awesome news.

Buy issue #1 of Apology Magazine, with the interview and a bunch of photos of Tim & Eric, right now for $18, right here. It seems like a really nice, beautifully put together magazine. Buy it. Support it. Don’t let cool print magazines die out, guys.

And keep an eye right here and we’ll let you all know more information about the new Tim & Eric productions when we get more info.

I am currently the proud-ish owner of a Droid 2 Global (ish because I really need a new phone soon, despite it being a year old– this screen is bad, and I’m not even getting Ice Cream Sandwich because it’s too old!) and, while they weren’t when I first got the phone, Adult Swim is the proud owner of a couple Android apps. While nowhere near the amount on the Apple App Store, the Android Market/Google Play has its share of Adult Swim official and related goodies for your smartphone.

Adult Swim themselves have two official apps out. Robot Unicorn Attack was their first venture into Android, and soon after came an Android version of the official Adult Swim app that Apple iDevice users have already had for a while. There is also another app related to the network in a way in a game based on Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie, named Tetnis. There’s also a fanmade Adult Swim Message Boards app out there! Let’s take a bit of a look at each.

First, since it’s on the top of my applications list, let’s look at the official Adult Swim app. You may be familiar with it if you have an iPod Touch, an iPhone, or an iPad. The two apps are similar, yet they have some purely cosmetic differences. Right off the bat you’ll note that the black bar at the bottom and top of the iOS app is nonexistent on the Android app. Those options are still there, no worries– you only have to tap your menu button on your phone’s face. You can flip through the featured videos when you open the app, just like the iOS app, as well.

Watching full episodes that aren’t free will, of course, require a login. Gold Episodes are available on the app. Video is actually far nicer on the Android app. The video itself is much clearer, while audio is still a bit crappy. Louder though, perhaps. The Games page in the app is cleaner and lacks really much of anything– understandable as the only game Adult Swim has actually produced for Android thus far is Robot Unicorn Attack. There’s a trailer and screenshots for the game, as well as a Buy link and reviews. The Shows page is nearly identical to that of the iOS app, minus the alphabet on the right side of the screen. You can browse through a list of Adult Swim shows, and hit any of them for clips and a nice little banner for each show.

The app’s schedule page is nice. You can cycle through the schedule for the current day, the next day, the day after that, etc. or you can also go through a list of shows to find out when one is going to be on air. There’s also a nifty little option to download the full schedule at the bottom of the screen, which brings you to the paper schedule that’s available on the AS website.

If you take a little jump over to app settings, you can sign in to Twitter and Facebook to share stuff from the app, as well. And if it’s taking up too much phone space, clear its cache from the settings page.

Downsides are that the navigation is a little weird, if you’re not used to using your menu button to navigate apps. Otherwise, cosmetically and feature-wise, it’s far better than the iOS app. I recommend nabbing it. It’s free. And it’s on the market right here.

Next up, Robot Unicorn Attack. You’ve played this game a million times. You know damn well what it’s about. You’re a robot unicorn. You have three wishes. You jump. You try to get high scores and blast through stars. Adult Swim’s rehashed it a million times too. You’re familiar.

Well, it’s also available on the Android platform. For 99 cents, you get the whole thing you’re familiar with– the song, the unicorn, the dolphins, etc. If you haven’t tried a touch screen version of this game, you really must. It seems it was meant for a touch screen. A quick tap gives you a quick jump, double tap for a double jump, and a long press gives you a longer jump. Tap the boost to run through those stars. It’s all quite simple but it works fantastically on Android. It looks fantastic and it plays better than it does on a computer, I think.

The app started off a bit rough with some really painful force close problems– dying and trying to start your second wish used to force the app to crash, making it unplayable. Thankfully, the folks at AS have since fixed the issues and it’s much smoother now. No lag, no crashes, just jumping unicorns and Erasure.

The one downside of the app, as stated in the app’s market listing description, is that it is not supported on tablet devices. So if you have an Android tablet, this game is not supported for your device. A bit of a blow to the app, but if you have an Android smartphone, and you have 99 cents to spare and a love for jumping unicorn robots, it’s way worth the price of admission. It’s on the Android/Google Play market right here.

Now, Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie isn’t actually Adult Swim content, but of course, it’s Tim & Eric, so it’s related. You may have heard that the duo recently released their feature film (in theaters and on demand now!). Along with it comes a little game for Android (and iOS!) named Tetnis. If you’re familiar with games like Bejeweled, where you move patterns around to get three or four of one kind of thing in a row and rack up points before a timer runs out, you’ll be able to jump into this with ease. Since that’s what it is.

It’s not just that though! It’s also filled with B$M references: images and sound effects. Instead of jewels, you’re playing with pizza, rusty nails, pills, wolf heads (“we gotta get rid of that wooooooolf!”), brown toilet paper, Schlaaang and Dobis logos, and sometimes, Eric or Tim heads pop up as special pieces. Every time you get a combo, or use a special Tim or Eric head, you’ll also hear sound clips from the film, like Eric yelling “oh yeah!” or the both of them saying “DOBIS”. When you start up the game (hit “GET INFECTED!”) you’re welcomed with a loud “SHRIIIIIIIM!”

It’s a fun, easy, simple game that’ll be fun for anyone who likes T&E, B$M, or really, anyone. It’s free on both smartphone platforms. Go install it! It’s worth it. Here’s an Android link though.

Lastly, not so much a review as it is a plug, Adult Swim Message Boards member Metatroid (who may be going by another name now, I’m unsure) released a fan-made ASMB app a while back named Android Swim. If you use the boards a lot, and want to check ’em out and post while you’re on the go, the app is great. You can access the entirety of the boards, post new threads and replies, and check your PMs. It’s only 99 cents, so if you use the ASMB a lot, check it out. It’s available over here on the Market.

So there you have it. There are some other Android apps that are in some way Adult Swim related (there’s a George Lowe app somewhere!) but these are the most notable, and most official. Two are free, and two are really cheap, and they’re all pretty nice! Check them out. Get them on your device. Have some fun. Impress your friends.

iOS has a substantially larger amount of AS apps, most of which have free Lite versions. Next time, I’ll do my best to take a look at each.

But for now, go forth and install.

The album will be released on March 22nd, 2011 from Little Record Company.

T&E; Haters rejoice, we’ve heard rumblings of this for a while, but it has pretty much been confirmed by Tim and Eric themselves… Season Cinco is the final season of Awesome Show, great job! Although, I have to imagine… even after tonight’s final episode as well as the upcoming Check it Out: with Steve Brule mini-series… I doubt we’ve seen the last of Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim from [ adult swim]. Or, at least in comedy.

Regardless, T&E; fans check out the final, 30 minute jam-packed episode tonight at 12:30am on [ adult swim]
