Gosh darn season four being split into two parts. HOW am I supposed to ration my ramen for the entire season THIS time?

I still hate Hatred though

e: on a side note; I sort of wish Hank had been recruited alongside Brock tbh

How can anybody hate Sgt. Hatred?

I really should have been more clear. I don't hate him in the context of the show, I just really don't think he's as funny or original as about 90% of the other cast, and I don't clearly understand why they decided to make him a major character as opposed to somebody else.

As far as Hank joining SPHINX goes, I just really wanted to see him separate further from his brother, that's all. It was hilarious to see Hank and Dean's interactions as a team, but I think after three seasons it's time to see them develop into their own now, and I always did like Hank's interactions with Brock better than Dean's. I know that is intentional and seeing him partner with Brock wouldn't fit the ongoing theme of failure and crushed dreams, but as the previous poster said, I would find it hilarious if Brock joined up with SPHINX only to have to deal with Hank once again. It would turn the one lovable god in the series into an even more lovable mortal.

See also: Shadowman 9 and The Invisible Hand of Fate.

Oh god, pretty much. That entire episode was a huge "HEY THESE CHARACTERS MIGHT BE IMPORTANT AGAIN IN THE FUTURE" sign

e: and was the only episode of Venture Bros I found corny as hell

I thought I read a while back that Colbert's agent passed on the Venture Brothers without letting Colbert know about the offer beforehand.

Wouldn't be surprised seeing as Colbert did all of Harvey Birdman, and showed a LOT of enthusiasm in his voice doing both Venture Brothers and that. I'm surprised that he didn't step on some toes to get back onto season four after missing season three if that's the case though

But he also quit that after the Colbert Report started. He got hit by a bus and only came back for the finale, which could have been recorded ahead of time.

I suppose you're right, but then again the show was almost done with anyways. While the Colbert Report would definitely be more important to him than the distraction of voice acting roles, I'm still surprised he didn't see Venture Bros till the end. Hell, after season 2 it's not as if Professor makes too many appearances anyways (save for the fact that he might become a huge part of the arc in the latter half of season 4, but even then who knows, maybe not)

So who thinks that by the end of the season, 21 will get fed up with the Monarch and pull a Shadowman 9 and petition the Guild to be allowed to Arch on his own?

He could be a nerd-themed Supervillain with henchmen who have all the upgrades he asked for.

He pretty much already does this. Since 24's death he's turned into a fat, nerdy Brock Samson

I was giving a reason as to why someone may not have heard of Keenan and Kel. Did you watch Nickelodeon shows when you were in high school? I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to put you down bro


Watching Nickelodeon or cartoons in general with a girl usually means sex. I lost my virginity to spongebob


And I loving loved Kenan and Kel. I was 9 when that show was out though, so...

Kenan and Kel were also on All That for like 3 years before they were on their own show. If you were a kid watching nickelodeon anytime between 1993 and 2000 you'd have to have seen them.

Kenan has also been on SNL for a long time. Hardly obscure

I just want the Monarch to be a screwed up Rusty clone. Or vice-versa. You know Rusty didn't make those cloning vats.

That's my pet theory anyways.

Well, he does refer to the clones as "my life's work", and Brisby only ever mentioned that his father had notes about the cloning process, so I think it's entirely believable Rusty made them. The fact that fruits of his labor are two repressed and borderline retarded dorks would certainly fit in quite well with the themes of the show's humor (failure, impotence, gender confusion, premature ejaculation).

Rusty becoming a villain would've been completely out of character. Villains have to actually give a poo poo about villaining. Rusty doesn't give a poo poo about that. He just wants money and undeserved acclaim in the superscientific community. He's not a villain, he's just a horrible person.

And also probably the least intimidating person in the entire show, even below Dean (at least he beat up that fat blonde kid).

Unless, of course, Brock was his number 2.

If Rusty went villain he'd be violating his deed or tax returns or something that say he has to dedicate 15% of his property to general do-gooding.
