ORB Commentary

Head over to Adult Swim's site to check out another in-season commentary from Jackson and Doc for ORB. I haven't finished listening to it yet, but I'm sure it's highly insightful or possibly meandering and hilarious. Either way you're in for a treat!

Glad to hear that the Christine bit at the end of ORB is a lead-in to the finale.

I for one am glad that Doc was able to stand up and say what we were all thinking: Oscar Wilde isn't all that great. It does me proud to know someone isn't afraid to stand up to Big Oscar.
A few more thoughts: these commentaries, I think, are video of the audio commentaries that'll be on the DVD. Also, I am amazed at how they predicted so many of our comments. The commentary was recorded before the premiere party and yet they knew.
Oh, also I've been away the last few days. Good to be back.

I don't think these are the same commentaries we'll get on the DVD. For starters you'll notice that Jackson stops the episode so that they can speak without the episode continuing. On an audio commentary, normally, the episode and audio run concurrently.

More likely these were shot specifically to serve as Adult Swim exclusives, which happened with a few other shows as well.

Also, on the livejournal Jackson mentioned that the would be recording the commentaries soon...but THESE specific ones were obviously recorded already. Leads me to believe they'll be separate.

As always, though, we'll see!

Aw, come on. I like Oscar Wilde. I don't think he invented cool. But I like his work. I could give two shits if he wasn't the first person to start immersing himself in popular culture and shopping. The Picture of Dorian Gray is a damn fine book. And The Importance of Being Earnest is a classic. A CLASSIC. Bah.

I agree. I like him too, just being sarcastic. Like Doc said, people don't really know Oscar Wilde so I thought it was funny for him to be taking a stance.

Perhaps if Doc remembered to write Hank and Dean more often, he'd also remember to put in more "Go Team Venture!"s.

Speaking of missing catch phrases, I wonder why "No way!" seems to have fallen out of favor. IIRC, there was at least one in every first season episode, but I haven't caught many this season.

Slightly off topic, but:
Was anybody else convinced that Bowie was going to be Tesla in the Gramophone Flashbacks?
I know it woulda' been a little cheesey, but since he did play Tesla in "the prestige" and since Doc and Jackson are such HUGE fans of Bowie. I thought it would have been really funny and awsome.
Thats all.

No. But the thought did flash into my mind when they mentioned Tesla was attacking them. I don't know how much I would like that tho.

First footage! Title revealed! https://youtu.be/eXJ5OM9RfV8 Synopsis and cast too! “In The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart, a nationwide manhunt for Hank Venture leads to untold dangers and unexpected revelations, while the Monarch is literally out for Dr. Venture’s blood. An imposing evil from the past reemerges to wreak havoc on the Ventures, the Guild, and even the Monarch marriage—it will take friends and foes alike to restore the Ventures’ world to order… or end it once and for all.” The voice cast includes the returning James Urbaniak as Dr. Venture, Patrick Warburton as Brock Samson, Michael Sinterniklaas as Dean Venture, Chris McCulloch as Hank Venture, and The Venture Bros. co-creator Doc Hammer as Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. (Hammer and series co-creator Jackson Publick also wrote the script, and Publick directed.) Other voice cast members include Nina Arianda as Mantilla, Clancy Brown as Daisy and Red Death, John Hodgeman as Snoopy, Hal Lublin as Clayton, Jane Lynch as Bobbi St. Simone, Charles Parnell as Jefferson Twilight, Jay Pharoah as Nuno Blood, Steven Rattazzi as Dr. Orpheus, JK Simmons as Ben, and Dana Snyder as The Alchemist. A project of Titmouse, Adult Swim, and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment, all that radiant baboon heart blood will be gushing forth later this year.

Okay, Venturoos. Here's what ya get for the Extras, at least on the DVD version. I felt it was a little light, but that's just my opinion. Deleted Scenes (as always) - Some are B&W sketches with the dialog, others are animated with the dialog. Ghost in the Pro-Blem - An extended view of the distorted images of events from the Pro-BLEM's point of view. Maybe there are some clues hidden in it if you like frame-by-frame advancing. Maybe not. Sirena Goes Off... - Cristin Milioti ad-libbing way more dialog than the script calls for. Poor Rocco. Promo - Basically the season 7 promo. Maybe there's Easter Eggs to find. I haven't done any extensive searching yet. If anyone finds any feel free to post them here!
