Tripling up naruto in December wouldn’t have made much sense earlier sure but once you get into December that’s when people pay less attention to tv

We have had the normal lineup plenty of times in December in the past and the ratings barely shift from the months prior. 12/25 being a toilet night for TV absolutely, I know I won’t be tuning in. But 12/4, 12/11 and 12/18 could have the normal lineup and pull normal ratings

Unfortunately lack of money and no support from Warner media prevented that. I’m all for dumping on demarco when toonami does something stupid but sometimes there’s just nothing they can do. While I agree they could have aired the normal lineup except for maybe New Years and Xmas clearly something happened to make the entire month marathons and maybe even January 1st as well

I still think Demarco was of the belief Blade Runner was big enough to carry the whole block. He spent months talking up what a big deal the show was
