AV Club's Top 30 TV Series' of the Aughts
Obviously I wouldn't be reporting on this if The Venture Bros. wasn't on this list, so let's just cut to the chase. It's in spot twenty-six:
If The Venture Bros. wasn't the best show of the 2000s, it was at least the most unexpected: Debuting on a network best known for funny-but-dust-thin stoner comedy, it quickly evolved into one of the most emotionally involving shows on television, showing real character growth, genuine depth of feeling, and a hefty thematic obsession with failure and disappointment.

I was literally coming here just now to draw your attention to this. :P
Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job also made the list. I do love that show (in its own way) but that was a true shocker to me.
Venture, of course, deserves to be there, and I would have raised hell in the comments section if I didn't see it listed.
Now if we could just get AV Club's episode reviews to quit bitching about how out-of-place Sgt Hatred feels...

Despite the numbering of the list, it's not in order of quality.
They do this often at the AV Club. They'll make a list of "10 Such-and-Such" and number the list, and then spend ages in the comments section reminding people not to get upset, as the numbers aren't rankings.
One would think they'd just STOP NUMBERING THE THINGS in order to avoid confusion, but there you go.
Tim and Eric is not better than Venture Bros., and you can rest assured that they didn't mean to imply that it was.
