I think "muscle mother" describes the fact that Rusty had the following parents: Father: Dr. Venture Mother: his father's "muscle," meaning his bodyguards, teammates, and so on. "Muscle" is a comic-book-y synonym for lackey or henchman: Jonas is the leader, and Kano and Action Man are his muscle. Or, it's just alliteration. As for the Operation: PROM song, it could be something they got from a stock music library, like in Invisible Hand of Fate.

I think the real question is whether the reference to metal fingers is foreshadowing about Vendata trying to kill Rusty when he was a kid, or whether it's just a gag about HELPeR or the countless robots that tried to kill and molest young Rusty. I have a 1500-word blog post to write and the print out to bring with me to a Q&A with Jackson and Doc. Hey, I forgot where HELPeR went. When was the last time we saw him.

In S1E1, what does the student ask during Rusty's lecture and what does the professor answer? I'm assuming that most of the attendees are in the wrong class given most of them leave when the question is answered, but what do they think they're there for?

PostNouveau posted:I want a full episode of the old rusty venture cartoon. ... brought to us by... SMOKING! I don't know. If they did an episode of the show, there'd be a lot of temptation to throw in some examples of Jonas openly being a terrible father in some adventure-boy-show way, which is something we'd all laugh at. But, it would also mean that the cartoon actually showed bad parenting that might only be visible by people of our generation and age, but it'd be there all the same, and the fact that Rusty is totally hosed up as an adult wouldn't be surprising in the least to the average person in the Ventureverse who grew up watching the show. At the very least, it wouldn't have its prestige as an in-universe classic cartoon that's beloved by many, remembered fondly by many more, and hated only by the insiders. The only way to make it right would be to make an episode that's whitewashed for the TV viewers of the 60s: Jonas comes off as totally awesome and beyond reproach, as does Team Venture as a whole. And Rusty comes off as cute, adventuresome, and a magnet for kidnapping. It would literally be as fun to watch as some random episode of Johnny Quest from that era, and it wouldn't be able to have much of the Venture humor that we love the show for, because, again, part of that humor is that people on the outside don't really get any clues to what's really happening in young Rusty's life. tarlibone fucked around with this message at 20:03 on Feb 13, 2015 |

Or, a documentary where they compare how something really happened to how it was portrayed in a movie. I've seen these, years ago though. They go through all the similarities and differences between some historical event as depicted in a famous movie or something. But, they do it with some event that Team Venture became entangled with, and the episode of the cartoon that was made about that event.

It's neat that, in the universe of the show, the Rusty Venture cartoon is 35-40 years old, but there was enough interest from younger children to attend his day camp. I wonder if Rusty Venture is just a timeless nostalgia thing, like GI Joe or Spider-Man.

Kesper North posted:...Now imagine an episode about the Rusty Venture Show being rebooted. Considering it seems to be the replacement for the actual Johnny Quest show in this universe, it probably went through similar revivals and continuations like Johnny Quest did in our world, which means there was a crappy 80's continuation where they inexplicably added a Rock Man to the cast, and a cult classic 90's series that had some truly awful early cgi

Here's how you get the best of both worlds: Someone mentions that a particular episode was awesome. Rusty then explains what really happened during that episode in flashback form, with the "real" version being intercut with the cartoon version. There's lots of room for good gags there.

A real conondrum: in the Venture Bros. universe, is the Scooby Doo gang A) a television show that characters are aware of & reference (see: Hank's wardrobe), B) a group of actual people, some of whom Action Johnny claims to have scored with, or C) a nightmarish band of serial killers that murdered Hank and Dean

Probably both of the latter two, but they're separate groups. The creepy serial killers are to the real Scooby Gang as Brock Samson is to Race Bannon (who is canon!).
