That's quite a wait. When I asked Renji's VA last month about the dub, he said they were waiting on CN to pick up the next season before they resumed dubbing.

4th Bleach Film Green-Lit

Next year's combined 3rd/4th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is confirming on Monday that production on a fourth 'Bleach' film has been green-lit. The spinoff from Tite Kubo's 'Bleach' supernatural manga will open in the winter of 2010. The third film, 'Bleach: Fade to Black - Kimi no Na o Yobu', opened in Japan in December of 2008. Viz Media released the first two 'Bleach' films in North America, and Adult Swim ran the second film on American television on December 5.

I'm not sure how long ago, since I just happen to notice this last night and ep. 01-03 are already gone.

However, they started adding Bleach to the AS VOD starting from the begining.

I did watch the first episode when it was on and it was very odd to see, but yet, kind of refreshing!

Adult Swim has finally put up their new schedule:
www.adultswim.com/schedule/onair.html

However, after Bleach Ep #167 plays on April 17, it looks like they're rewinding back to Episode 129.

Trivia:
The last time Ep #167 played was on November 21, 2009.
The last roll-back was to Ep #110.
This roll-back in April could all be a hoax. Who knows?

I just checked the Message Boards at AS and there's a note at the top of the Bleach forum that says:

Re-runs @ 12:30 AM ET Saturdays. New episodes return in April.

Take it how you will.

Heard there is some hard balling going on between Viz and CN ,but that seems to happen every time.

Well, now the message says this:

Re-runs @ 12:30 AM ET Saturdays. New episodes return later this year.

Even though we already knew this from the previous post ---

New Bleach No Longer Slated for April on Adult Swim

The schedule of Adult Swim, the late-night television programming block of Cartoon Network in the United States, indicates that the 'Bleach' anime series will be repeated from episode 129 onward, starting early in the morning of Sunday, April 25. Adult Swim had run an onscreen bumper in January that said that new episodes of Bleach would premiere in April, but no new episodes are listed in the April schedule after episode 167 repeats early in the morning of Sunday, April 18.

I'd be quite fine with it never coming back and being canceled.
