"Go Team Venture!" The Venture Brothers Thread

[Reply #40 on:]

Nick (Winna), I highly doubt that Adult Swim won't order a second season.

Cause I expect them to order at minimum 8.

From the AS Boards and TV Tome:
'The Venture Brothers will move to 11:30/2:30 EST starting Saturday October 9th.'

Thank goodness... I love that show.

[Reply #42 on:]

I would like to see Dean try to go on a date with that neighbor girl Trina.  That would be real funny. 

[Reply #43 on:]

He deserves at least a sympathy kiss for all the crap he's been through for her.

[Reply #44 on:]

I wanna see Trina naked...

[Reply #45 on:]

*Triana

The Venture Brothers is now one of my new favorite shows. It's SO hilarious, when I saw last week's ep I was laughing so hard that I woke up my mom!

TV Tome Description of next episode:

"Tag Sale - You're It!
Always short on cash, Dr. Venture decides to unload some of his father's old scientific equipment in a huge yard sale that attracts fellow scientists and super-villians alike."

Apparently Dr. Girlfriend appears in this episode. Maybe some new villains we haven't been introduced to yet?

Sounds awesome Can't wait for it!

There's a 30 second clip of the new episode at AdultSwim.com.  Once again, VB looks awesome.

*double post*

I have a problem with The Venture Brothers now.  No show should be allowed to be this funny.  Tonight's episode, "Tag Sale - You're It!" had me rolling on the ground laughing and crying so much.  The minor recurring characters are awesome and incredibly well-developed this early in the show. (Dr. Girlfriend, Dr. Oprheus, Triana, The Monarch's henchmen, Mr. White & Master Billy Quizboy, etc)  Not even Futurama, at its height, was able to top itself with each subsquent episode.  Comedy gold, thy name is Venture.

And, is it just me, or are Hank and Dean almost non-existant in their own show?  Dr. Venture, Brock, and The Monarch almost dominate every single episode.  I'm not complaining or anything...

[Reply #52 on:]

They seemed pretty existant in the last two episodes...

[Reply #53 on:]

Ok, in last week's episode, maybe you're right.  Maybe what I meant to say is that Hank and Dean just aren't as funny as Dr. Venture, Brock, and the Monarch most of the time.

[Reply #54 on:]

I don't they were ever intended to be. But all I know is that that line about Anne Frank and Lizzie Borden had me rolling on the floor for like 5 minutes. I seriously wanna meet the writers for the show and tell them how great this show is because of them.

[Reply #55 on:]

I liked it when Dr. Oprheus got jealus and went around trying to get a nemesis.  That was hilarous. 

[Reply #56 on:]

Mr. White and Master Billy hitting on Dr. Girlfriend was better.  I never realized how few super-scientists have costumed antagonists.  Dr. Venture's greedy...he has two (that we know of), while other have none.

[Reply #57 on:]

I enjoy the relationship that Molotov Cocktease and Brock share.  Hehe...  her and her chastity belt.
Funny that she's the only woman he ever loved and he can't screw her.  I wonder how their plotline will develope.

[Reply #58 on:]

I finally saw my first episode last night, and I must say that Dr. Girlfriend may be the most disturbing thing in existance... well, second, behind Soccer Claus.

[Reply #59 on:]

Doctor Girlfriend is sexy...  shut yo mouth!

[Reply #60 on:]

I wonder why Molotov Cocktease just doesn't remove the chastity belt.  I liked last week when Dr. Girlfriend though that the Monarch brough Brock and Hank over for sex and she said "The big guy is good but the kid is just going too far".  lol 

[Reply #61 on:]

Dr. Girlfriend is probably one of the single best original female characters ever in the history of adult swim.

[Reply #62 on:]

She has a baboon's uterus, so that definately makes her awesome.  I don't know exactly how different a baboon's uterus would be during sex, but it's definately original.

[Reply #63 on:]

Evan typically you don't feel the uterus during sex... unless your doing something really wrong...

[Reply #64 on:]

I was referring to the strength of said baboon's uterus.   That isn't like your normal, pathetic, human uterus.  It's better.

[Reply #65 on:]

... nevermind.  I forgot you have more experience than me.

[Reply #66 on:]

I walked right into that one, didn't I?  Oh well, I stand by what I said.  Yes, I have had sex with a female baboon, and with Dr. Girlfriend.  I'm not moving back on that.

[Reply #67 on:]

THE FOLLOWING IS THE BEST LINE FROM ANY ADULT SWIM SERIES - EVER!

 

Monarch: Hey, guess what? Nobody cares who would win in a crazy fantasy fist-fight between Anne Franke and Lizzy Borden!

 

[Reply #68 on:]

Funny,funny stuff

[Reply #69 on:]

Lizzie Borden would so totally whoop Anne Frank's closeted ass.  It wouldn't even be close.

Ooh, new episode, "Past Tense", is on tonight!  Let's see if VB can top itself yet again.

[Reply #70 on:]

I loved it.  It was so cute, I want to "meet" college Brock.

[Reply #71 on:]

You want to "meet" college Brock just so you can break some poor Japanese kid's heart.  You heartless bitch.

I'm really digging all the continuity in this episode.  Venture, Brock, Underbheit, White, and the Monarch all went to the same college?    Even Hank and Dean had trouble buying that.  Although I kinda wanted to see how Venture destroyed Underbheit's jaw. 

The Action Man returned, yay! Underbheit and White are still trapped in the dungeon, boo!  Brock kills someone and casually informs Venture his dead died. Yay!

[Reply #72 on:]

Whoever the hell was doing the Sean Connery voice damn near fooled me. It realy sounded like him.

[Reply #73 on:]

Mr. White's "dedication" from Mike to Laurie on the college radio station had me in stitches.  The best part of college is embarrassing your friends in public about the girls they like.

I must admit, I find it hard to believe all five characters are of the same age.  I always took Brock and White to be younger than Venture, Underbheit, and the Monarch.  We know Brock's at least one year younger, but I can't believe the rest are all the same age.

[Reply #74 on:]

I loved the editing with the alternation between the past and present when Brock goes nuts at the end.

[Reply #75 on:]

Really?  I always thought Venture was about their age, I was right that he got that balding gene though.  I love how he looked older than his dad...
That scene when Brock went nuts was crazy and scary..
That was the first really good episode I can think of without the Monarch starring as the villain.

[Reply #76 on:]

That Sean Connery voice was totally fake.  It was an awesome episode btw.  And you aren't kidding about the continuity, Brock killing the quarterback and all.  And those robots were totally hot....

[Reply #77 on:]

I wish they'd gone into more of the Monarch and Venture's relationship in this ep. However, the little bit he was in the episode was great. Not many archenemies keep in touch like Venture and the Monarch. Wonder who paid the collect charges...

To see how bored I was, I calculated back to find out when exactly "Past Tense" took place.  If Doc is 43 (as previously said), and VB takes place in 2004, then he'd be born in 1961.  This jives with Rusty's apparent age at the begining of "Ghosts of the Sargasso," when he, as a child, witnesses Major Tom's death.

If Doc was born in 61, then he'd be in college between '79-'83, presuming he didn't skip ahead any grades.  The film version of "Blade Runner" came out in 1982, so what we're seeing takes place in the '82-'83 school year, probably.  If Brock's a freshman then, he'd be four years younger than Doc, making him 39 right now. That kinda makes sense.

In conclusion, Venture, White, Underbheit, White, Brock, and the Monarch are all between 39 and 43.  Which does make sense, when you think about it.

If the boys are 15, then they'd be born in 1989.  If Venture was correct at losing his virginity at 24, that would be 1985.  So it's completely possible that the boys had a real mother between those four years.

"Allergic...to...oregano." Haha, I loved that.  Also, if anyone could write down the music from the commericial (the trumpet part), I'd be unimaginally appreciative.
