To elaborate.. here's why I'm worried about the Venture Bros. future. Look at the complete list of shows 'officially' cancelled by Adult Swim in 2014/2015. Some of these shows regularly scored highly ratings than Venture Bros. and are done forever.

* Aqua Teen
* Black Dynamite
* The Boondocks (creator left, launched Black Jesus)
* China, IL (creator making "TV Sucks")
* Eagleheart
* The Heart, She Holler
* The Jack and Triumph Show
* Loiter Squad
* Metalocalypse (creator just wants a proper finale)
* NTSF:SD:SUV:
* Superjail! (creator in denial)

Holy Crapola! I didn't realize how much restructuring is actually happening at [AS] in general. Most of those shows are rightly canned.. but dang, that's a bunch of original content cancelled.

I highly suggest everyone buy Venture Bros. Blu-rays/DVDs for their extended family members this year. Show Warner Bros. and [Adult Swim] we still care.

Gents,
I think we need to accept this is the end of the road. There may be a comic or some other format, but I believe they are done. Other than a career destroying personal love, I can't see a network exec saying yes to another 2-3 year wait. There is just no way to market that. 18-25 year olds grow up and out
They have been brilliant and burned very brightly. I can't wait to see what they have in store. I hope they go out well.
Go Team Venture

I think it could really go either way.

If Venture Bros. Blu-ray sales are high this Christmas and the new season gets good ratings in 2016, I think we could actually see one or two more seasons get made.

It'll be really interesting to see what happens regardless...

Here's to seven seasons and a movie!!
