"One Piece" Re-Runs Pulled From Adult Swim Schedule

It was fun while it lasted. As noted on the official Adult Swim schedule, re-runs of the shonen anime One Piece will be coming to an end on March 28th, after only four weeks in the timeslot. The former time slot held by One Piece will now belong to long time Adult Swim staple King of the Hill. This change could be the result of a steady decrease in the re-run slot's ratings, going from 707 thousand viewers to 568 thousand viewers in one week.

While fans of the series looking forward to a prime-time slot with their favorite crew of pirates will be disappointed by this change, new episodes of the series will continue to air on Toonami every Saturday night/early Sunday morning at 2:30am ET/PT.
