Stay tuned to the end of this column to find out what Jim J. Bullock and Ted Knight have to do with “Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law.”

Normally, I spend my Friday nights not getting so drunk I kiss the porcelain. Normally, on Friday nights, you can count on me being as sober as a Straight Edger with a corncob up an uncomfortable place.

You can also count on me spending most Friday nights staring at a blank TV screen, cursing the fates that there is no Cartoon Network Adult Swim programming.

So when I heard that starting this Friday, July 6, Adult Swim would finally be adding that seventh night to its schedule, I did two quick shots of corner store suicide and immediately drove downtown and started honking my horn and waving my “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” beach towel out of my car window.

Yeah, it was pretty rad. And rad is a word I have been trying to get into my column for years. So, thanks, Adult Swim.

On a more somber note, “Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law” will be ending its series this month. Six years of quality, inside potty humor is hanging up the trousers and heading for that big DVD box set in the sky. Sunday, July 22, “The Death of Harvey,” final episode. Ye gads, can it be true?

I know, I feel your pain. It's tough for all Adult Swim fans. But we knew going into this that the original programs were not the type of 'toons that run for 20 years, eventually turning into the TV equivalant of old toast, featuring guest celebrities every episode. Who could that be? Not sure, but I'm betting their movie this summer will have at least 142 occurrences of “himself” or “herself” in the credits.

No, Adult Swim cuts you fast and is gone before the blood hits your shoes. With shows like “Moral Oral,” “Sealab 2021,” “Home Movies” and others, you get tight, sharp humor that often has milk shooting out of your nose.

This is especially true for “Harvey Birdman.” As goofy as the show is, with all the sophomoric rips and stooge moments, you still get those jokes where you pretend laugh — even if you don't get it — so you won't look stupid — even if you are all alone. Not unlike the first season, “Too Close for Comfort.” Talk about cynical, nostalgic comedies starring a flying lawyer in tight pants and a bird on his shoulder!

Well Harvey, it's been fun. So thanks for the laughs. Thanks for the good times Judy, Peanut, Avenger and special thanks to Myron Reducto. And finally, thanks, Williams Street. Nice one.

Oh, almost forgot. What do Knight and Bullock have to do with Birdman? All three have the letter B in their names.
