~WARNING: SPOILER-TASTIC!!~
I absolutely loved it. Perfect return to a show that I haven't seen anything new of in a year. For the past week I've been re-watching the first season DVDs pretty much non-stop, so going straight from Return to Spider-Skull Island into this was really rewarding.
Let's see...notes:
~Doc Venture once again proves himself to be the most horrible person alive (firing his equivilant of Haji, trying to avoid living with the boys again, etc). And yet, he's awesome? Why is this?
~Dr. O *rocks*. Seriously, he may well be my favorite character. I loved his guilt-tripping, and his journey to Hades...in fact it would've been kinda cool to see him bring the boys back from hell. "Phile! Necrophile!"
~Speaking of which, I wonder how he's going to react to the boys now. Oh man, I wonder how *Triana's* going to react to the boys now! That reunion will probably involve tears...not of joy.
~YES! FREE MONARCH!
~Loved, loved, loved the Venture Bros. death montage. Probably my favorite part of the episode.
~So the clone theory proves correct-- at least partly so, anyway. We still didn't really solve the "boy's mother/test tube" riddle (since evidently they just make clones every time the boys die), but I'm actually glad of that-- it leaves more up in the air for later this season (mwa-ha-ha-ha!) I do have to wonder though, does this mean the boys will never grow up? Like, do the clones age like normal people would? Is it like living except with little death speed-bumps which you have to go over every few miles or so? Or are they just going to stay the same forever at 16 (or however old there are)? I kind of hope it's not option B-- while I realize they're funny as they are now, the concept of them not even having the opprotunity to develop *physically* is just sad. Man, you have got to feel for the twins Venture at least a little bit.

haha yes, in the beginning Doc Venture wandering around looking like he was trying to find himself was hilarious (I said to myself a few times "huh. I guess they're really dead.", especially the special opening, which was great) and then it turned out he was just trying to avoid going back to his old life.
really great episode overall though. Brock's stretch armstrong comment was hilarious. Jun. 24, 2006, 1:48am

Great start for a new season. The beginning was sweet, and there were plenty of laughs. I'll tune in again on Sunday to get the full experience. You can only judge so much about the artwork from a stream on my crappy 15" CRT.
Who is doing Jonas Venture Jr's voice now? It sounded different, especially since I watched the last ep. of season one before watching this. Jun. 24, 2006, 6:07am

I find it hard to believe that no one has mentioned the Robot Chicken Season 11 finale with the Venture Bros Season 8 scene at the very end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKH-J3f2RkM
