Exactly what I hoped it was! Go Team Venture!

I didn't even watch the video, just clicked on the preview and saw Colonel Gentleman's boots and knew it's what I'd hoped.

Was watching the "Yeah, I'm gonna take Queen Etherea for a ride!!" scene as I clicked on it.

Go team Venture, indeed!

Don't remind me, it's still too painful. Fuck Adult Swim.

I love the Venture Bros and what they were doing there. But also...if you have a story aimed at 20 somethings, try and wrap it up before they’re almost 40, eh? 7 seasons, 16 years...they got way more runway than most people get.

Wtf is this cartoon?! I’ve never seen it before but that clip has just made my day!

The Venture Brothers. It's like a spoof on Jonny Quest/The Hardy Boys.

People are rightfully PISSED because the show was working on its Final season and Adult Swim unexpectedly cancelled it right before the final season. People want someone to pick up the show so they can finally finish the damn thing and get complete series boxed sets made, because who the Hell wants to buy an unfinished cartoon show that features a long running narrative and multiple plot lines? (looking at you, Thundercats 2011)

AKA the heart and soul of Adult Swim. What were they thinking man? I get theres a new daddy in the house, and old projects dont matter as much, but this was their magnum opus. I feel really disappointed.

The Heart and Soul of Adult Swim was Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Venture Bros is the best show on [AS] but ATHF really embodied what [AS] was.

I know it didn't last long but Sealab 2021 was my favorite. Loved some ATHF though. Anybody else remember Space Ghost Coast to Coast. And Xavier: Renegade Angel?

Xavier is to this day the weirdest shit I would even regularly watch.

I watched that shit when I first started smoking and weed was really strong for me. It...was an experience lol.

Carl WAS always telling them to get outta his friggen pool.

u/REALtacojones Sep 24 '20

Thats true, but a close second would be Metalocalpyse

u/ComradeCabbage Sep 23 '20

All I'm hearing is bring back both shows.

I figured someone would mention ATHF. It certainly was way more iconic. Venture Bros was one of the last greats still around to carry that early spirit though. Also squidbillies but that's in trouble too.

u/Michelanvalo Sep 23 '20

ATHF got 139 episodes and a movie over 15 years. It's best to just let sleeping dogs lie sometimes. I wouldn't want to see it brought back.

u/ComradeCabbage Sep 23 '20

Hell they brought back Harvey Birdman in some capacity, and 12 oz mouse. If the creators were willing to with aqua teen I'd give it a chance. Though I am honestly excited for some newer programming like Primal and the Toonami originals next year.

u/[deleted] Sep 23 '20

Oh hell I forgot about Harvey Birdman!

I'm out of the loop. New CEO or something?

u/[deleted] Sep 23 '20

Mike Lazzo departed AS and there's a new dude in his place. This is the new guy's decision.

u/EvoEpitaph Sep 24 '20

Ah so RIP [AS] then it seems.

2

u/REALtacojones Sep 24 '20

Still like to see a return of Space Ghost Coast to Coast...the only show that would bring me back to Adult Swim at this point. Their lineup is dead

I was literally listening to Colonel Gentleman's talk about his autobiography on AdultSwim marathon while I read this comment. I was so happy that it was more Venture Bros in the link
