Very Little Rest for the Wicked...  


Hello again, everyone, after a long spell of silence. Far from being as inactive as I've appeared, there is Plenty Going On--but not much I can talk about yet. Big Plans being discussed in dark places. Idle machinery being oiled and slowly creaking back to life, etc. etc.

What I can tell you is that the Venture Bros. Season Two DVD is presently scheduled to be released April 17, 2007. Doc and I are grinding out all the supplemental materials as I write this--we've recorded commentary for every episode (some with James Urbaniak and Mike Sinterniklaas as our very special guests) which we can guarantee will be even less entertaining and more off-topic than the last set's; we're filming some live action stuff which promises to have fewer bad costumes and more dazzling special effects, and we've compiled some 30 deleted "scenes" in various states of dis-animation, many of which you'll be glad we cut but some of which are pretty funny. You are already shouting "oh boy!" I know.

Hot damn but there's never been a better time to buy The Venture Bros. Season One DVD, though, as Amazon has slashed its price to match that of my cab ride home from the Astrobase. This is, no doubt, the sole reason for our sudden leap back into their Top 50.

In lieu of super-insider news or spectacular preview art, I give you the following list...

These people all made Season 2 of The Venture Bros. possible and/or bearable. THANK THEM!

I'm new to the whole VB scene. After many friends harping on me, I finally watched some Season 1 eps on OnDemand. Then watched them again. And again. And again. Then got a crush on Dr. Venture. Then almost wept openly in public when my local video store had already rented the boxset to someone else this week.

Amazon.com here I come! :) Thanks guys, for making my winter bearable. :)

So what's up with no VB on the fix? I am a humble workingman and can't stay up to the unholy hour that Adult Swim schedules you guys to air.

(Pausing to say VB is the shizznite, all praise it's ineffable name, ohm.)

Am I missing episodes?

I'm dry.....DRY, MAN! *shakes you by the collar*



And being dry frankly sucks.

Adult Swim Rules!

Thanks for mentioning them Mr. Publick, I know the members of the Adult Swim Message Board will thank you and for our viewers on the board for watching this season, wish I could see you on the Fan Collective and stuff JP, but that is up to you.

You guys did a great job with season 2. I thought that the characters had so much more to them than they did in the first season. I am excited for the next dvd to come out and prospect of a big plan!

The one and only problem with Venture Bros.: Not enough.

Thank you for creating a brillaint show that I quote on a daily basis. Usually three times, in my Henchmen 24 voice. Give or take.

I'm with everyone else--season two was spectacular.

THANKS. :)

This makes me so happy. The off-topic-ness of the S1 DVDS was truly wonderful. It was like sitting around with the witty people who always wind up chatting in the kitchen at a drunken college party. Which maybe sounds like a diss, but I have faith that you know what I mean, and that this is a very high compliment indeed. I may have enjoyed the commentaries more than the episodes, and I liked the episodes a helluva lot.

Question: You know what you guys need now?

Answer: An assistant to handle all the pain in the ass crap you guys are too busy for.

Date marked! Can't wait for it.

That season finale was amazing. I almost threw the remote at the tv when the show ended. I was like, "Damnit! Can't end yet!" Especially since I hadn't realized I was watching the season finale until it was over.

David Bowie, man. David fuckin Bowie. Nice.

Thank you list of people, thank you JP, and thanks to Amazon for making the DVD set now the most affordable AND the most awesome gift of the holiday season.
Shame about having less bad costumes. That was awesome.
OH YES, and thank YOU for introducing another generation of people to Klaus Nomi! For this treat I supply a CATPARTY.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! I was super-excited for season two to come out, and I had a big list of expectations, but you entirely blew me away! :) Keep up the AMAZING work!

"Venture (26)"

Season 3 with 26 eps or season 3 & 4 - 13 eps a piece???
DasKreestof[info]daskreestof on November 30th, 2006 07:16 am (UTC)
Re: Scientastic!!!
I think Venture (26) refers to the 26th episode of Venture Bros-the second season finale.
