I don't have Adult Swim. I will continue to read Maakies though. There were a few animated clips on Tony's official website some years back. The show might be in that same vein? I know Drinky and Gabby will both be featured in the series. Eric Kaplan is Co-Creator and CO-EP--maybe you know the name from Flight of the Conchords, Letterman, or Big Bang Theory. They Might Be Giants did the theme song (awesome).
EDIT: Should have read the entire email earlier, but apparently I have a press preview of the 1st episode. Will review and post notes later.
EDIT: *dook dook dook* It's good. Not loving the voice talent, but it's something I could grow to like. The writing is as good as the strip. Good vocabulary work. It opens with irresponsible drunk driving. I'm mid-episode right now, Drinky's wearing beer goggles and says to his date, "I don't see any varicose veins. I see veins of beautiful emeralds and rubies." Empirical stamp of approval.
EDIT: The voice talent includes David Herman, Tony Millionaire, Eric Kaplan and special guests, FOTC's Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie....among others.
