Bout god dang time. I'm wondering what exactly they are going to do. Are Dean and Hank (right? I always forget his name) coming back or are they really dead and buried?

 

It should be awesome, because Patrick Warburton is hilarious.

OMG that was just an amazing, surreal, hilarious episode. Well worth the wait.

That was a great season premier. Loved the "Many Deaths of the Venture Bros." montage.

 

Also, Brendon Small did several voices here.

I personally expected the "Jonas Jr and Rusty become the new VBs" theory myself. The clone stuff had to at least be implemented, though. They dropped so many hints throughout the 1st season it was obvious.

 

There's about a dozen possible great episodes set up. However, there was so much being set up you never really got anything too well explained.

 

Hopefully White Noise doesn't return. The writers are better than that.

 

I saw the boys and totally thought Hellraiser, though.

 

"Gas leak...the silent killer."

 

Hopefully they don't play this a hundred times so I get sick of it, like the Trial of the Monarch.

It was a fine episode of course.

 

I don't know if anyone else caught the septopus reference or not, but I did.

 

Loved the Vince Neal, King Gorilla comment, "He was looking for the surreal life, and KG always delivers!"

 

I don't really mind the status quo, this is one of the only AS shows with any sense of continuity, such as it is..

There was no new episode last night...and there isn't one for another two weeks, on August 6th.

Thanks to the annoying delay and the pushed back eps, there wasn't much discussion here...

 

However, if you missed last weeks ep (Viva Los Muertos, written by Ben Edlund), try to find it to download/torrent--it's really awesome.

 

It's a very dark, twisted, messed-up and hilarious episode featuring a parody of the Scooby Doo gang modeled off famous criminals (Ted Bundy, Patty Hearst, Valerie Solanis and the Son of Sam--and yes, the Scooby parody talks to the tortured "Sammy", wanting him to do the "master's bidding"). Plus, Dr. Venture playing God a little, and Brock actually struggling with guilt over killing. Orpheus brings his usual slice of ham to the table as well.

 

Really different from how the season first started...

Tomorrow is part 1 of the 2-part season finale.

Youtube has the ep, btw. Just search for venture + muertos and you got it.

 

I'm really happy to hear the show has been getting really good ratings, too. :)

 

Doctor Venture's to-do list:

 

* Beat God at his own game

* Get money

* Increase my word power

* Pushups!

* Make everything [...] my way

After the season finale on October 15th, new episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force Season 4 replace it.

God, the last episode was greatness. Making fun of the Scooby Gang, Dr. Venture re-animating one of the Monarch's henchmen(with Brock's reaction being classic), and the boys seeing their clones for the first time and Venture's quick cover-up had me in stitches.

 

Hopefully the good ratings mean there'll be a 3rd season.

I've said it before, but this show the best thing on Adult Swim.

Almost as good was I Know Why the Caged Bird Kills.

 

A woman who claims to be Hank/Dean's mother kidnaps the boys. There's some hilarious interaction of HELPER with Brock, Orpheus with Dr. Venture (always great stuff there), the way Brock defused the situation, and Brock/Doc's botched cover-up attempt.

 

"...ok, so I ****ed her!! What of it?!"

 

Plus, just like in Assassinanny 911, we see Doc has a thing for dangerous women.

Ep's on now--no real intro at all...

 

"You couldn't have done this...I don't know...*ANY TIME* in the past ten years?!?" (After the henchmen captured Brock, Doc, Hank, and Dean)

 

Brock: "You're next to Sargeant Hatred and Guest." (Hank winces)

 

Dr. Venture: "I can't remember a day of my life that you didn't **** up."

 

Pt. 2 next week.

Monarch: "Total dick move!"

 

Hank and Dean hanging out with the Henchmen was great. Oh, and Brock's obssession with Led Zeppelin is the best running gag on a show in a while.

This ep wasn't as good as the previous one, but it is always keenly interesting to see just how awful the Venture Bros can get.

 

Because thats what its all about, after all, the failure of the past.

Now, that's how you do a season finale.

The minions discovering the wings actually work was great.

"Why does nobody tell me these things!"

 

I have to wonder if they're going to go for the extremely obvious for Dr. GF's big secret, or something a bit weirder.

I'm guessing it's going to be something other than "I used to be a man." Too obvious.

 

I loved Nien Nunb figuring out how to fly the jet. Also caught another Star Wars reference when Hank's lucky shot connected ("Great shot kid, that was 1 in a million!").
