Friday Roundup Of Interviews
LA Weekly talked to Jackson and Doc in depth about the show's production and gives you five things you may not have known about it.
A Site Called Fred has a Bit of a Chat with Jackson that you can give a listen. They talk about muumuus, shirts, George Lucas, interns, arcs, and founding fathers.
IGN's interview delves into how production of the show has been going and how they plan on it going in the future, plus some small reveals (or whatever the reverse of a reveal is).
Newsarama also has an interview about the Halloween special, Shirt Club and being on a first name basis with The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend.
Jackson and Doc School io9
Except that I’m interviewing you, and the whole reason I’m interviewing you is to ask what's happening in this season.
JP: Well, there's your mistake. Why don't you ask what you think you want to know and we'll see if we can answer it or be colorful about answering.
DH: Getting to your original point, I don't think that's really the point of an interview, to find out what's going to happen. You could find out how we write, you could find out what the show is about in broader terms, we could talk about all the past seasons. I'm not sure, I think you might be incorrect. I just want to point that out.
You reject my entire premise.
DH: I think it's a flawed premise that journalism is the art of asking what's happening next.
Wired Interviews Doc and Jackson
Popshifter Hardballs Jackson and Doc
Doc: That’s how we do it. He just drives around in that little chair with a pyramid on it.
Jackson: Oh! And he takes it to his invisible jet plane.
Doc: Yeah, yeah. And he puts on his magic power wig and takes it to his invisible jet plane. Yeah, I would love that.
Jackson: And then flies it to the hat shop that the guy from The Fixx runs.
Shirt Club Version Two Is A Go!
Subscriptions will only be available until 11:59pm EST on June 7th, and after that you'll have to pay full price like a chump (and miss out on the subscriber exclusive), so you'd better get on that. Head on over to the Astrobase Go! website to learn more!
Popdose Interview With Jackson and Doc
DH: I never read them. I have a form letter that I send back that explains it's not going to happen. At best it'll mirror something that I did and you'll be running around screaming about how it was your idea, and at worst I now cannot do my idea. And also the psychology of, "Alright, I know you guys write a show that I like so I know that you can do it, but let me just give you…," you just gotta stop that. You gotta trust that we have more ideas. I promise we have more ideas.
JP: And usually the idea makes you go, "I can’t believe you even like our show if this is your idea. Like, you seem to think this is a superhero show about Triana [Orpheus]! 'We think it would be really good if Triana got super powers!'" What are you watching?
An Even Newer Season V Promo
Journal of Venture Studies: Volume Two
Season 5 Premiere: "What Color Is Your Cleansuit?"
In related news, Adult Swim has revamped the Venture Bros. section of their site, which includes the usual videos and clips, but also a swank new Relationship Action Map which you can use to figure out which character relates to others. It's also almost certain to get more and more obsolete as season five progresses, but for now it should have all the info you need.
