God, I love this show.

Sad that none of my friends like it. Most of them get to the end of Season 2 before calling it quits.

Why are they still my friends? Your guess is as good as mine.

As far as good quotes go, from the Lepidopterists when the ghost pirate guy runs into the room with a tourniquet on his arm yelling "I'm not supposed to be in here!" so they shoot a tranq dart into his arm. loving glorious. Also when they are Venture-tron and that he is the arm so when they swing the sword it forces a shitload of Gs on him.

A good episode.

The Ventronic vs. the Monarch's cocoon scene is one of my favorite Venture Bros scenes, mainly for this exchange:

:smug:: "Retard" is a hateful word. We don't use those slurs.
:argh:: I'm your arch enemy. I'm not going to use "bungling boobs" or "meddling kids", it's not my style! That guy needs to get a thicker skin.
:smug:: Thicker skin? Poor Ned has skin that's three inches thick. Now how do you think that makes him feel?
:argh:: Itchy?

I'm sure he also hunts black vampires from Africa who only speak Swahili. He just picked British vampires in that example to draw an easy contrast to the silly notion that he only hunts African American vampires.

And yes. He doesn't know what the PC term for that is.

I'm not so sure of that. It is completely in keeping with the spirit of the show that Jefferson Twilight only hunts black vampires from English speaking countries. I could easily see a scene where he's hunting down a vampire who is about to claim a victim and then backing off (leaving the victim to his or her fate) when he learns that the vampire (who speaks English) is from Nigeria or something.

So are the vampires he's killing when we first meet him Cajan or French? I thought they were French.

I don't remember back that far. Also, my "theory" could easily be wrong and Jefferson may well hunt black vampires regardless of their country of origin. I just thought that as long as he was being ridiculously specific in his choice of target (black vampires) he might well be even more ridiculously specific (black vampires from English speaking countries).

Years ago I saw someone in gbs correct an English poster using the word black with african american only to have it pointed out how dumb that is.

It's almost easier to list the quotes from The Lepidopterists that aren't quote-worthy than the other way around.

My favorite quote: "(Everything 21 and 24 say to Henchman 1)"

I've always liked "I hate that you're my best men...."

Whelp, guess it's time for my annual rewatch of the whole series. Only this time there's going to be a juicy space adventure special at the end.

On that note, is Netflix going to get any more seasons? It's so much more convenient to binge watch on Netflix that I really wish they had more episodes on there.
