Anyone else notice that Brock was wearing some sort of cap or hat the entire ep? I don't know why I noticed that.

Odd, it shows the brothers being decapitated by a laundry line, but on tv they lost their heads from two metal spears.
I know you guys have noticed that the Venture Bros. premiere is still online on the Fix, but it has now been announced that ALL premiere episodes will stay online all week long.
They haven't really clarified whether they mean all Venture Bros. premieres or all premieres in general, though (which would include Minoriteam, Tom Goes to the Mayor, and Eureka seveN, plus whatever else they decide to add).
So it might be that from now on all new Adult Swim episodes (at least those premiering on their Fix) will be available for their entire debut week.

The [adult swim] Fix is awesome. However, I'm saddened that they ditched some of the Home Movies re-runs; last time I checked they only had "Politics", a very "meh" episode :/
The episodes change every Monday. So maybe next week they'll have a better episode.master_shake_05 said:
Unless they just haven't bothered to update Home Movies lately for some reason (I can't say I've paid that much attention to what episode of what is airing every week).

Awesome stuff.
That rocked some tits! Might even be better than last week's!
-Plenty of 21/24 action
-The Monarch's new "gang"
-Brock/Phantom Limb team-up
-21's arsenal of weapons
-The boys are back, of course
-How Dr. Girlfriend planted a tracer on The Monarch
-General awesomeness from all the characters, really.
The only thing it lacked was Dr. Orpheus!

The opening was awesome!
Strange you say that, I finally convinced my wife to watch VB by comparing it to AD. I said if a show like Futurama is the Scrubs of animated comedies, but Venture Brothers was the AD. A terrible analogy, but hey it convinced her to watch a few eps and got her hooked. I'm hoping we can finish all of S1 soon so I can rewatch the season 2 opener with her.

Also, Brock was wearing a hat last time because his hair was singed in the explosion at the end of season 1. Now he has a half mullet.
These guys have crazy continuity.
I loved the first season, but it seems like they really spent their time with these scripts. Two episodes in this season and its allready blowing last season away.

How do I download ASX files off of AS Fix? That's possible, right?

Ok, Hank did get shot in that mall shootout, didn't he? That kind of got glazed over.

Well, Jonas did use his torso for his own robot suit at the end of last season. I'm sure he'll show up again at some point, though.tralfazz said:

Ah, thanks.Dan said:
So I guess Dr. Venture has just one eye now? Unless he can fix that somehow.
EDIT - I was pretty disappointed with the commentaries on the DVD, actually. Sure, they were funny, but they barely talked about the actual episodes at all (aside from Ghosts of the Sargasso). I really would have liked to hear about the little hints and foreshadowing they added once they knew where they were going with it.
I'll admit, the commentaries aren't exactly what I look for in, uh, commentaries, but they're enjoyable at least. There's some good info spread across all of them if you really pay attention, but I wish Publick and Hammer more directly addressed the construction of the series and exactly how they dig into specific episodes. I'd also love to hear more about their experience in sending the show to Korea (I think) for production. That process is discussed a bit on some Batman animated discs, but it seems like Hammer does more post-production than usual with what they get back. I've yet to listen to the pilot's commentary (or really dug into Publick's blog, for that matter), so I'm not sure if the origin of the series is really discussed, but I'd love to know more about the show's creation. Specifically, Publick was obviously very much influenced and inspired by his work on Ben Edlund's The Tick. They have remarkably similar sensibilities in some ways. I sometimes find myself expecting characters from that universe to pop in.
Two very good episodes to start the season. I can stop worrying about a sophomore slump now, I guess. The episode just kept picking up steam as it went along.
With the last two episodes of the first season, and the first two of this season, they've been breaking out the continuity, and they seem very willing to change stuff around. For the first 11 eps, it was basically "have an adventure, go back to status quo at the end."
I really liked the plotting in the second half. It was like a Guy Ritchie movie, crosscutting among the three groups (Venture/Monarch/21/24, Hank/Dean/Girlfriend, Brock/Phantom) all going after something that might not be there, colliding at the end.
Loved all the interplay with the odd pairings. "Are you our mommy?" "Nice idea with the WD-40, the Monarch said grudgingly." "I could have sworn you were going with 'Lock and load!'" "The night is still young!"
Honestly, kids dying and being cloned, the main villain losing his license, eyeballs popping out, Brock getting shot, it's like the show's going without a safety net.

way too many ****ing spoilers in this thread for me to touch it, but HEY Venture Bros. is back!
snuck up on me, i didnt expect these to start until fall. i was so eager for the 2nd season to start i had to stop checking the updates on it.
i didnt even know the dvd was out until i saw it in the store the other week. i snapped it up immediately.
cant wait to see the new episodes!

Helper was in the season 2 intro. Helper was my favorite charachter last season.. In the Brigsby world one where brock calls him because helper is programmed to come when he is called. Brock assumes Helper will override the controls and land the X1, instead Helper just jumps out :lol :lol :lol
His charachter is alot like the boys actually, just more extreme.
He better come back.

the whole 24 and 21 doing the song was just so ****ing funny. I was dying on the floor of my living room wishing i had a pause button. And dean was funny as well MOMMY.... HAHA this consistant feeling is different for the show i hope it doesnt run it into the ground. I think what was so awesome about Venture bros was that it was one episode and then you'd have a completely different vibe with another episode.
Im willing to bet the hoover dam will come into play this season. As the boys were incubating some factoids about it were playing and Dr Venture woke them up during it saying "do they really need to know this crap"
Im going to guess at some point, they will need to know this crap, but wont remember. :lol
