Interview with Doc Hammer, mostly about music, but hey, Hammer content is Venture Bros content in essence.

Eeehemm... I am Augustus St. Cloud, arch-nemesis of the Quizboy.

I'm here to bust things up and chew bubble-gum. And I find bubble-gum unpleasant.

I love how Colonel Gentleman reacts like a guy whose son's friend, age 10, just burst into the room, costumed and playing protagonists & antagonists. Polite, sort-of playing along in the way you do with kids, but clearly as concerned for his safety as any adult is when it comes to little kids in costumes.

Then mama comes in to whoop his rear end.

okay this is burning me up inside. I have to make the shameful admission that it took me multiple rewatches to catch on that Tosh Tompkins is not merely a throwaway Flash Thompson joke but also Stars and Garters' alter ego

Oh, one thing from that Hammer interview that's at the very end is that he's asked about VB's future and he's very tight lipped, but in a legally-obligated kind of way.

I can't believe so many didn't catch that. It was also part of the joke of him in Think Tank's hospital room. He was wishing a colleague well that he knows from both jobs.

I like how the last two seasons had Mark Gagliardi, Paul F. Tompkins, and Hal Lublin. Too bad Amber Gold didn't make an appearance so we could get Paget Brewster and have a real Thrilling Adventure Hour reunion.

Yeah if he has an NDA, that means that there is something happening in the background. If the show as completely dead, there would be no need for an NDA.

she does and I just didn't fuckin put two and two together. I choose to think that 75% of the voices being done by like two people has made me instinctively not bother to use voices to tell characters apart. regardless, it is true that I am a tremendous idiot, just the most colossal moron

I'm pretty sure if you're old enough they all were. It seemed to be standard news chopper marketing in the 70s-80s.

I love that the copter pilot also did the voiceover for the hype video. Like they hired him for the voice and gave him pilot training afterward.

This syncs with a theory I saw that "Venture Brothers" has to be completely canceled for the Hulu deal that AT&T/WB hates to go away and then they can start a new and legally distinct show called "The New Adventures of the Venture Brothers" or something like that that streams to HBO Max

right, tv news choppers started as a pretty oddball thing

https://epicmagazine.com/whatgoesup/

quote:

Lane had heard about the freelance pilot across town because Foster was featured in a radio report, “Death in the Desert,” that told the story of that grandmother and those kids who died near Carefree. Lane called him and offered him a job to fly for KOOL. The career of Jerry Foster, helicopter newsman, was ready for takeoff. The station bought Foster a cheap gyrocopter with a tiny plastic bubble cockpit, a slapdash machine that was manufactured by McCulloch Motors as a sideshow to their main product, chainsaws. Foster called it “the Pollywog” because it looked so funny. He could fly anything, of course, but the problem with calling in traffic reports as he circled above Phoenix and its clogged thoroughfares was the thudding concussion of the engine and rotors, which made his report impossible to hear.

This idea of doing traffic reports for television was shaping up to be a fiasco. But Foster wanted this job. Dianna was pregnant, and he needed stability. Foster’s daring solution was to soar in altitude just before broadcast time, then disengage the engine (the way you might put a car in neutral) and watch the Pollywog go into a glide, an arcing fall that gave him about 30 seconds of silence to voice his traffic report—while hurtling toward earth!—before re-engaging the engine and pulling up at the last second. More than once he misjudged the length of his report, and as he was about to slam into the roofs of speeding cars he’d suddenly cry out, “This is Jerry Foster, gotta go!”
