I may have missed it, but have they gone into Purple Pete Rose's backstory yet?

Something to do with Telegram Sam, pie and lightning, I bet.

But Blade hunts white vampires, too.

I don't know about that, but I do know that I'd love to see Family Guy do one of their alternative intro sequences based on the original Venture Bros. intro from season 1. Brian and Stewie, or Meg and Chris, or Lois and Peter, could be the running pair at the beginning.

Eww. Gross.

no

It's just a Google translation, which is even worse Latin than mine. What that says is basically "I give gratitude/thanks You can us"

Something along the lines of "potestis gratias agere nobis" might be better, but the idiom probably does not translate directly.

There is honestly a very VB bit in people discussing that they have no idea what type of mantle Red Mantle's name is referring to.

At any rate, the outfit does clearly imply a species that lays eggs.

Henry Fool is a very odd but good movie. To be fair I haven't seen it in a few years but I liked it.

I liked the sequel better, tbh.

Do people actually not like St. Cloud? Why?

It's not so much St. Cloud himself, but being pro-St. Cloud and neutral on the moppets at the same time is evidence of a severe personality disorder.

I don't like Hunter Gathers

Gathers is not my favorite because he's based on an irredeemable scumbag.

I'm surprised that no one's touched on the most shocking thing that happened in this episode. Brock Samson, a man who once said "guns are fruity," admonished Vatred for not keeping a weapon under his desk. Brock was contemplating using a gun!

Yeah, THAT WAS A WEIRD ONE

Also Gary has a long history of wanting to be the Viceroy, is where I was mostly coming from

In his heart of hearts, he probably still yearns to be Jet Boy/Girl.

I knew he was a musician, but I'm not in the NYC area, and if he's gone on tour, I haven't heard. I take it you've seen him perform? What kind of music?

He has a long-standing feud with Voltaire, so I imagine something moderately gothy.

the band is called Weep, some songs are on youtube. his record label is Projekt which is like the gothy label.

I still want to know how they got Jarboe to do a voice way back when.

I never bothered looking it up before, but his previous bands seem pretty far up the pooping bats spectrum.

And I suppose he got Jarboe the same way he got J.G. Thirlwell to do the music. He did some choice name-dropping with the Monarch unauthorized biography.

That's pretty much all I know about Voltaire, because I was never as goth as all that.

haha yeah- I mean- its sort of that
The 'hyperactivity' part doesn't always mean that you're up and peppy, just that your attention is all over the place, way more active than normal.
Hank's a teenager- he hasn't ridden down the dopamine yet. Adult ADHD is a whole other thing, and it sucks, lol- I honestly hope this show runs enough decades to at least give us a glimpse into Hank's mid-20s

I too hope to be alive in 2075.

I don't remember the first episode I saw, but I didn't bother with Venture Brothers because most of Adult Swim's shows I was either lukewarm on or absolutely hated.
