Venture Bros. Special: July 24th
It's been kicking around recently but Bump Worthy finally put the bump in question up. AS announced that the Venture Bros. special will air on July 24th:
Coincidentally we know that an 11-minute short was part of the renewal contract and Jackson revealed here that he's "currently involved in producing an 11 minute little something-something in-house [at Titmouse]" and (in the same interview) that they'll "unveil a special little project we've been quietly working on for Comic-Con". Also Comic-Con just happens to take place July 21 through July 24th. So there's that perhaps? Either way, July 24th!
