Given how half of this and any given R&M circlejerk is about how Rick & Morty is soooooo emotionally affecting with characters like Mr. Poopydoop and such, it might help to realize that the Venture Bros. veers off from parody comedy into a dark character comedy that uses Gen-X Nerd Arcana as a backdrop and an excuse to have the characters do outlandish things. You're on SomethingAwful in tyool 2015 so I'm guessing most of the Nerd Arcana will be recognizable, which is good as it helps you know what archetypes the show is using as well as how the show is jumping off of that archetype to create a more unique character (e.g: Henchman 24, the audience stand-in and mega nerd ends up going through a crisis of conscience after his friend dies and makes huge leaps forward in competence only to get discouraged and find a new normal back in his old dead-end job which is utterly heartbreaking but also more honest than any other show would treat his character). A lot of Adult Swim shows have done this dance before, including Morel Orel and Metalocalypse. Too Many Cooks is a good micro-example of this philosophy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrGrOK8oZG8 Start as one-note joke that uses Gen-X pop culture staples as reference points,. Then take that joke to the most extreme it can possibly go. Then take it a bit further. Then veer off into other genre territory mostly for the hell of it. Then get experimental with form. Then punish/reward the audience who stuck it out with some form of genuine lunacy before looping back around to tie everything back in nominally with the original premise.

eh it's probably the best written animated show of the decade and manages to be really funny while doing so I'm glad adult swim has nailed some mainstream success for their weird poo poo because I sat through a panel for Steven universe and holy poo poo, the future is not bright.

That whole segment was cool because it had a great message to it: live your life as if you're playing Roy. For all you know you could be! How many goon lives do you think merit a high score ?
