I'm going to stand by my theory that on top of nailing the Blue Morpho's wife, he really did some SCIENCE with respect to getting Malcolm conceived and forgot to sterilize the equipment when he tried to clone himself. So, Rusty is actually a full brother to Malcolm and he absorbed the actual clone that Jonas was trying to make.

One thing that I noticed - and maybe I just don't watch enough quality shows so it may be more common than I thought - is how the characters address each other. Doctor Thaddeus Venture is known/referred to as "Rusty", "Rust", "Doc" and "Venture", in a fashion roughly ranging from 'Previous Carer', 'Old friend', 'Colleague' and 'Enemy' - Members of Team Venture largely refer to him as 'Rusty', his old college friends refer to him as 'Rust', both Hatred/Vatred and Brock call him 'Doc' and people who dislike him often just use 'Venture'. Doctor Morpheus rarely deviates from 'Doctor Venture', although I think he has used 'Rusty' when not in his presence. Anyway, what I'm getting at, is that Future Rusty addressed the Monarch as 'Malcolm', implying a possible consolidation between the two, and I wonder - should the series continue - how the Monarch will refer to Rusty upon getting to know his brother better. Will he continue with 'Venture', or will the change in relationship be signified with him refering to him by a different moniker?

I think Orpheus was going with Mister Venture at one point. Killinger corrected him, but I don't think it showed up just in "The Doctor Is Sin."

Don't forget at least two people calling him 'Dad'. Though I imagine in the super-science/magical/superhero community, getting pedantic over whether someone actually has a doctorate is considered gauche.

I dunno why but I have a love for that oft abused Bot. I heart you H.E.L.P.E.R. and could listen to you quote poets all day. Back in the day I had a friend come over with his new girlfriend when that episode came on. She walked in at that exact moment of your screenshot and was like "the gently caress" and quickly exited. Afterwards she told my friend I watched weird porn. I never corrected her as somehow it was more amusing that somewhere out there is someone who probably now types on r/relationships "You think your porn is weird? I knew this guy back in school who watched porn where boobs had faces that told you to murder."

He calls him "Tad" instead of Thaddeus when undercover as a beaver inspector to annoy him. I could see him sticking with that as a nice balance of "technically correct" and "aggravating."

The most inconspicuous outfit he could muster, the only thing that didn't have actual Monarch branding on it, was a Beaver Inspector shirt he'd had in the back of his closet for years.

It only makes sense in context and the delivery is important, but one line I like replaying in my head at the appropriate time is, well, just two words. "What now??" The perfect line read, and a distillation of that character's entire life on the show. Also, "This is getting stupid!"

Ghost Leviathan posted:Except when it comes to his sex life. Even though Monarch can’t seem to do literally anything without putting on a costume, I like that the show portrays him and Dr. Girlfriend as having a healthy physical relationship. A different show probably would have made the costumes the joke, but on VB the joke is more of the “Drogo, not Drago” variety. Overall the show has a great deal of sympathy for its characters even at their most pathetic.

I'd say that's not promising, but Aqua Teen and Metalocalypse were previously shitcanned, so this is probably good, if it's to gauge interest in future seasons for all three?

Small launched a social media campaign to try to save his show back in 2015, collecting nearly 100,000 signatures calling for a follow-up to 2013's The Doomstar Requiem—but Adult Swim didn’t bite. Publick, meanwhile, announced the cancellation of The Venture Bros. last year by noting that the news came down just as he and Hammer were writing its 8th season, which would presumably have addressed many of the big mysteries lobbed at its audience in the conclusion of its 7th.

90 minutes is about 4 episodes worth of content, so that's not terrible, about a half season. I just hope it opens the door for more down the line.

This might be the same article pasted above? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/venture-bros-aqua-teen-hunger-force-movies-1234952010/amp/ Hopefully they're priced reasonably.

I just love how for Venture Brothers and for Metalocalypse, the synopsis is, "There's a great big new adventure that's going to answer a bunch of question then it's going to be epic and awesome!" And for Aqua Teen Hunger Force, we get, "There will be more episodes of this show." But that's the way it should be, given Aqua Teen Hunger Force's disdain for continuity.

Hot drat! I'm just hoping that the scope (and quality!) can match What Color is Your Cleansuit?/All That and Gargantua, Too which basically feels like a movie. If Orpheus isn't in there I'll be heartbroken.
