My friend I agree, don't let page 280 think I'm a chump bitch because this was my full post.

Especially because they killed off one of the members of the other pair of Venture Brothers.

I mean Rusty and the Monarch are the Brothers. Like, we kid about how it's too obvious but it's also looking increasingly likely.

Well, you could kill Hank or Dean. There's still Dermott, a Venture by blood if not by name.

Of course, maybe none of the living characters are Venture by blood. Rusty and Monarch look a lot alike, but neither looks anything like Jonas. JJ did look like Jonas, but the old Venture crew's swinging lifestyle has come up on several occasions, the most recent one specifically involving Monarch's Dad & Jonas Sr. together... Maybe we'll get an episode with half the characters utterly failing to correctly pronounce the phrase "heteropaternal superfecundation."

One of the best parts of that Behind the Music bit was Doc's "Wait, his last name is Fictel? And he's how old??"

I loved how that music video ends up adding lore and we see in the next season how Dr. Venture treats Dermott.

Wish we had a follow up with Dermott considering the last bomb drop.

See ya later.

Anybody wanna buy some of these never worn or washed last season shirt club shirts? I got larges when I really needed mediums so they're like tents on me and I'm probably never going to wear them.

Men's. And the skull and Venture logo ones are mediums because they were the last I got so they changed the order for me. I've got the rest in large though!

Same here. I don't mind commercials but they not only show the same commercials every commercial break, they'd sometimes show the same commercial two times in a row!!!

I don't know if Hulu does this because Hulu doesn't seem to have any free videos anymore and I'm not enrolling in a trial of Hulu PayForIt®... well, that and I own the Venture Bros. DVDs... and... where was I? Oh yeah. Commercials from streaming sites.

Does Hulu do this, because YouTube does: every now and then, the commercial aired is inexplicably en español. And it's not dubbed in Spanish, it's clearly a Spanish-language commercial... and sometimes for an American product of some kind. I mean, I don't care that such commercials exist, and I'm certainly not going to say we need to build some kind of giant cyber-wall to keep those commercials where they belong, but why does YouTube think I suddenly went Latino?

My work computer doesn't have any ad blocker on it and sometimes I get, like, Spanish language McDonald's banner ads. I've never read Spanish Internet so it vexes me too.

I just realized I've never actually heard any of the commentaries. Do any of the streaming sites have the commentaries available or are they only on the DVDs?

Only DVDs. It's 90% of the reason why I own them. They never talk about the episodes, so it's just like having a podcast with Doc and Jackson goofing around for half an hour at a time. They're fantastic.

I'm swiftly moving toward a solution which pleases nobody! YEAGGH!
The commentaries are what if Doc and Jackson had a podcast. They start every one by making fun of the idea that anyone would actually listen to their commentaries.

My favorite one is how they keep saying SPOILER 24 dies in the Season 3 commentary and basically going who the gently caress watches the commentaries before watching the episodes.

edit: The best commentaries are when they get either Rusty or Dean's Va to join in.

On the one hand, it's great, on the other, since English isn't my first language, I tend to rely on subtitles for those, and obviously, there aren't any for those commentaries.

They do sometimes talk about the episode though. Notably whenever Publick starts gushing about Hammer's ability to tie together three or four different plotlines in one episode with each feeling complete and satisfactory, something that he apparently struggles with.

Season 2, which I would say is the best season to me, granted mostly because of the opening is so great.

edit: Oh I agree, that's why I found it hilarious they kept saying it in each episode's commentary.

The best commentary bit is the one where they talk about General Treister and how they didn't expect him to be a recurring character so they named him after some rear end in a top hat kid one of them knew as a child named Jake Treister.
