User blog:SuperSaiyanKirby/The 2007 Boston Bomb Scare Incident

January 2007 was a certain event that changed history in a certain network forever.

In January 2007, Adult Swim wanted to promote Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters. So, to do this, a few people from the show got together to make a LED lighten advertisement to look like the character Moonite. Multiple advertisements made out of the LED battery-powered and looking like Moonite were put in different parts of Boston.

Three weeks later, January 31, 2007, a passenger saw one of the devices and told a policeman. Soon, people were worried that there was potential bomb threat, and soon Boston was filled with ambulances, and police cars and fire trucks, but they later found out that it was just advertising.

No injuries or deaths were reported, but there was some damage. Turner Broadcasting paid $1 million for the damage. Following that, the crew members went to community service to clean up their mistake. But then Jim Samples, Cartoon Network's original manager, resigned, and thus was replaced by Stuart Snyder. Many Cartoon Network fans saw this as the Downfall of Cartoon Network. I thought it was it's downfall when it removed Toonami, and then suddenly live-action shows started airing.

Well, there was an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force that was going to parody the events. The episode was entitled "Boston". The episode was pulled to not cause anymore controversy. It's been six years since the incident, and that episode still had not aired. No one even cares about the incident anymore, so it could be a good time to air it. I mean, Adult Swim got Dexter's Rude Removal on the air. All that is known about this episode is that comedian Paul F. Tompkins was suppose to guest star in it. Not only was it suppose to relate to the incident, but it was suppose to relate to the band Boston. Three versions are said to exist, but little is known about this episode. The creators say that it is not set to be released to the public until their demise. A YouTube user by the name of "RebelTaxi99" had asked Twitter users to tweet the hashtag "#AquaTeenBoston", to get the episode public.
