Cartoon Network has announced the renewal of The Venture Bros for a Fourth season.
The Venture Bros. (alternatively The Venture Brothers) is an American animated television series airing as part of Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. It chronicles the adventures of two dopey yet well-meaning teenage boys, Hank and Dean Venture; their emotionally insecure, ethically challenged super-scientist father Dr. Thaddeus “Rusty” Venture; the family bodyguard, secret agent Brock Samson; and the family’s arch-nemesis, The Monarch.
In April 2008, Jackson Publick announced that he and Doc Hammer have begun producing episodes for a 4th season. In March 2009, Adult Swim began airing bumps revealing that new episodes should begin airing in November 2009. In August 2009, a trailer for the 4th season was released on Adult Swim’s website.
What is The Venture Bros about? – Plot
Show creator Jackson Publick (a pseudonym of Christopher McCulloch) was one of the main writers for the Saturday morning animated series The Tick. Ben Edlund, creator of The Tick, has co-written two episodes of The Venture Bros. and written one full episode, “¡Viva los Muertos!”. Patrick Warburton, who played the Tick in the short-lived Fox Broadcasting Tick live-action TV series, provides the voice of Brock Samson.
McCulloch created The Venture Bros. storyline sometime prior to 2000. After working for the television program Sheep in the Big City and the live-action version of The Tick, McCulloch set to turning The Venture Bros. into an animated series. The Venture Bros. was originally conceived as a comic book story for an issue of Monkeysuit. McCulloch realized that his notes were too extensive for a short comics story and proposed that Comedy Central air The Venture Bros. as an animated series, but the network rejected it. Although the first draft of the pilot script was written in the spring of 2000, the premise was not greenlit until around the summer of 2002 by Adult Swim. McCulloch had not previously considered Cartoon Network because he “didn’t want to tone The Venture Bros. down” and was unaware of the existence of the network’s Adult Swim sub-unit. With the revised pilot, production began in autumn of that year and the pilot was first run on February 16, 2003. The first season of the series was completed in 2004 and it was added to the summer schedule in August.
I stayed up many night with disregard to my early morning activities (lack of sleep)just so I can watch Venture Bros. When this show first aired I didn’t care for it. One faithful nite I go hooked (without drugs) on dis show and couldn’t get enough (just like drugs). You may be wondering just why the f$#@ dosen’t this AH get a dvr or a tape deck or just buy the episodes or somethin. Dah….I dont know (I don’t do drugs). CD
