I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.

I don't want to spend too much time on all the various social media feeds out there, so I have about two dozen threads bookmarked, about ten of which update on some kind of regular basis, and that's all the SA I need!

As much as I want to see Hank keep on being the coolest Venture, I'm curious to see where Dean goes from here. And obviously, I'll be devastated if the Order of the Triad doesn't make an appearance this season.

I just want him to become a relatively normal dude and escape this nutty world. He's explicitly stated that he doesn't want to be a superscientist before.

Like, we've seen that there is an outside world. The fact that the Monarch's cocoon was on the news as a UFO means that not everyone in this world is used to all this craziness. It's probably like the Marvel universe where everyone is aware of superheroes and such being in New York but not used to it in their own worlds.

...even though Captain Sunshine lives near enough to the Ventures/Monarch...

This.
I don't watch much TV really, so TVIV is for this, and like the tick or IASIP.. otherwise, if its not linked from a bookmarked thread I probably don't find it.

With that said, I'm stoked for the book! I put in a pre-order long ago, then canceled it because it seemed dead.. then re-pre-ordered and am excited for July 19! Also new Venture keeps me going. I'm going through the first 6 seasons again and again, it is still fantastic. I have season 1-6 on DVD and :files:.. I really want to rip the commentary but I'm not sure of an easy way to automate it... I've never managed to listen to them just because if the DVD/TV is on, i'll just watch the show. I'd rather listen like a podcast.

Is it a little weird that there wasn't much of a lead-up from Doc or Jackson this time around?

Honestly, I loved watching the videos of the Q&A's and sizzle reels which led up to the previous seasons. This time... well, there was silence. It's weird.

Oh well. Time to finally get Season 6 resolved!

I've only watched season 6 once because of how unresolved it is. Excited to rewatch it before the new season so it gets to feel more continuous this time around.

e: except the legion of doom episode. I think I watched that like 4 times.

The problem is that Dean is on a path that isn't really suited to exciting stories : he's a college student, doing regular college student things, with the most irregular part of his life being his friendship with the Brown Spider, and that mostly happened offscreen so far. At best it seems like he would make a good heir for Jonas Jr's legacy rather than his father's or grand-father's.

I think in the commentary for Season 6, they said that they wanted to get the Order of the Triad ("Get out of my kitchen!") into an episode, but they ran out of episodes. This must be that, then?

And I wonder if those are thetans there at the end?

Well, that's why I'm interested in Dean's story this season. As much as I want the boys to have what they want, Dean having a normal college life is clearly not in the cards in terms of the overall story.

I mean, Doc and Jackson could ignore Dean for a whole season as he lives the boring and normal life he desires...but is that really likely?

What's the quality of the shirts like? I hate a lot of licensed tees since they're usually made of super-thin cloth and cut kinda short.

Yea I'd probably end up getting the XXl shirts even though i normally only take an XL because cheap shirts tend to be weirdly short. Good quality tshirts that are XL fit me perfectly. A good shirt should hang just past your belt.

They're decent quality. They used American apparel until it went out of business and switched over to Canvas for the most recent season. My S5 shirt is still going strong.
