* TOM once killed a spaceship hijacker who was also a robotic bodyjacker whose strongest body nearly touched the ceiling of his own ship. [[With This Herring|With a fork.]]
* The ''audience'' (with access to the internet) got one by piloting an army of robots to destroy a crazed, titan of a robot to shut down a tractor beam.
* A lot of the promos for most action shows were pretty downright freaking awesome. As a kid, you couldn't help but geek out every time watching one!
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nYqSLe160I&feature=feedu This] could be considered a Crowning Moment for the ''fans'' of Toonami.
** You think ''that's'' awesome? Take a look at [https://web.archive.org/web/20131029225147/http://www.neotoonami.com/ this.]
** Fanvids, eh? How about [http://youtube.com/watch?v=qSG91ra_jjo "Welcome to Toonami"]? Bonus points for this now-prophetic lyric:

* TOM cutting off [[Adult Swim|Adult Swim's]] almost traditional [[April Fools' Day|April Fool's Day]] airing of ''[[The Room]]'', then proceeding to air an entire block of fan-favorite anime series that haven't been seen on [[Cartoon Network]] for the better part of a decade -- complete with new TOM-narrated promos!
{{quote| ''Oh hi, Adult Swim! Got the results of the test back, and we definitely have April Fool's.''}}
** "[[Tenchi Muyo!|He's]] [[Jay Z|got 99 problems,]] and these [[Precision F -Strike|bitches]] are the main ones." Because [[Adult Swim]] lies outside of the children's demographic, different restrictions were in place that night. Bottom line: TOM can now ''swear.'' To quote a random 4channer:
{{quote| ''My childhood grew up with me.''}}
** Tom reviewing [[Mass Effect 3]] was a huge surprise that night, but it's even better than you think: he called the game out on import issues, the lack of characters from previous games being in the party, and the weak ending. Even so, he still enjoyed it and ended up giving it an 8.5, making himself a fairer and more credible game reviewer than IGN, Game Informer, and G4 TV in the process.
