Did I just kill premature ejaculation?

It's late but I wanted to get this out of the way since I'm already behind due to the holiday weekend. Anyway Self-Medication capsule/notes/screenshots are up. As always post corrections/additions/etc here (or email me if you prefer).

Hey I've been thinking, considering you break your balls to do these; Does anyone really read the episode synopsis? My joy of these things coming out is scrolling down to the notes section to check how many of the references I correctly picked up. I'm just wondering if anyone feels the same way. (Though I guess it's a bit harder to change the way things are done, considering you've done like 4 seasons of them almost.)

I read the notes right away, but when I'm trying to remember a detail for an older episode, the synopsis is invaluable.

It wouldn't surprise me if the synopsis gets the least amount of mileage after the notes and screenshots. At this point it's more for completeness sake than anything else. I've noticed that they've become a lot more in depth compared to some of the earlier ones as well.

I may try changing things for the second half of season four a bit, but in general it's not difficult to make them, it just eats away a decent amount of free time.

Mike, after reading the notes I think you should delete ALL INTERNET HISTORY after having such a detailed rundown of Gary Glitter :P

On the same note, sucks to be GG. He's persona non grata in all of South East Asia and the kids in London aren't beautiful brown boy-girls.

I read the synopses, but I'm a bit obsessive compulsive so there's that. You have a way with phrasing, if I say so myself.

Not related to the capsule, but an exclusive limited Killinger bag is up on the AS shop if that's your thing.

Very nice job. Not sure if it's worth mentioning but Lance is correct on both counts- Muhammed is the most common first name in the world and there is no such thing as a Vietnamese Two Step Viper. I had to look those up, but either way.

I just read the capsule and after it said that the therapist was in powerless in the face of death I wanted to see that clip so I looked on Google video and you tube but found nothing. But after a little digging through adultswim i found the video:

I guess Doc got over his impotance issues from season3 if he's now having the...other problem. It's either one extreme or the other. Poor guy can't win!

Right on.

I thought it seemed a few years too late, but the movie that everyone attends in this episode is pretty obviously Return of the King. I was really happy 21 felt the same way about the film as I (and most people) did, though I imagine his fondness for the franchise in general is much higher than mine.

An obvious tip-off is "Grimsby", the name of the dwarf with moxie. He is pretty clearly a reference to LOTR's Gimli. Also, the nordic longboat carrying all the characters that have died throughout the trilogy is a pretty big giveaway.

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!
