More On Upcoming Episodes

Since it's my civic duty to track everything involving the Venture Bros. thanks to this web site, I feel I should inform everyone that Jackson made a post here clarifying the upcoming episode titles.

Yup...somehow or another, the working titles of some of this season's episodes made their way out into the public sphere while they were still only half-baked. Next week's episode is officially titled "The Invisible Hand of Fate," and the following week will be "Home Is Where The Hate Is." After that will be "Dr. Quymn, Medicine Woman," "The Buddy System," and "What Goes Down, Must Come Up." I couldn't tell you the names of any past those since we haven't finished editing them yet, and that's pretty much when we decide what the official title will be.

Note that there are three other episode titles out there Murder O-Clock, Now Museum -- Now You Don't! and The Ant Farm which were seen on storyboards, meaning they are also non-final titles. So now you know! Everyone thank Uncle Jackson.

Doctor is Sin T-Shirt REVEALED

The next Shirt Club design will be Dr. Henry Killinger's logo as a pocket crest (though I assume the shirt doesn't have a pocket). The design isn't live on the site yet but I'm going to be a total jerk (as well as a top Internet sleuth) and post it here. The shirt will be available for purchase at the shirt club site at 11:30pm EST when the episode first airs on your television box. Enjoy!

Names Are Changing

As may be the case, the AS Schedule seems to have changed the name of next week's episode, formerly Billy Quizboy and the Invisible Hand to Invisible Hand of Fate. It's also possible the episode was swapped for another but given the similarity of the titles I would imagine that Billy Quizboy and the Invisible Hand was a working title that was changed because it, perhaps, gives away something about the plot. I'm just making guesses here though. Either way you have been informed.

The Doctor is Sin Discussion

Finally the wait is over! A season three episode of the Venture Brothers that actually has the Venture brothers in it! As with every week, use the comments to say whatever you want about The Doctor is Sin. The episode should be up on Adult Swim.com in the videos section right now and will play on TV at 11:30pm on Sunday. The comments will probably contain spoilers, so don't read them if you don't want to know what happens!

Shadowman 9 Up On iTunes

For those of you who missed it on TV or don't want to (or can't?) watch it on Adult Swim.com (it's still up there for another couple of hours), Shadowman 9 is up on iTunes. So now you can enjoy it on your iPod or iPhone on the bus or something.

Jackson Publick Interview on the AV Club

I'm a little late on this but thanks to Sean Donnelly in comments for posting this. the AV Club interviewed Jackson prior to season three's start. It goes into the writing process and what makes characters tick and all that sort of thing. It's pretty interesting stuff, so you should check it out. I'll leave you with a snip:

I think it's more fun to grow to love characters who are flawed than it is to present perfect characters. Perfect characters aren't very funny. Certainly my friends are a strange, intense bunch of people, and people's families drive them crazy, but challenging relationships are always more rewarding. It was always our goal to have Dr. Venture be kind of the central character and be kind of an asshole, but somebody that you eventually grow to love. He's a mouthpiece for your snottiest, innermost thoughts, and he can also be a target for cathartic release when he's being too much of an asshole.

Shadowman Capsule

For those keeping track I have the Shadowman 9 capsule/notes/screenshots in the usual place. Since it's been a while you should know that if you have any additional notes or corrections you can send them to me (or post them in the comments here if you want). I've been sort of lax with a lot of previous e-mails but I'm going to try to keep up as long as the season goes on, and eventually I'll get to that big folder of stuff for season one and two.

Also while I am here I just realized I am retarded and totally broke the random image below the logo. It was only loading the first nine, even though there were nineteen of them. I fixed that now and also added a new one as I often do. Not very exciting, I know, but I was wondering why I never saw Batman Hank any more.

Third Episode

I know Shadowman 9 hasn't even aired yet, but the third episode of the season (after The Doctor is Sin) will be called 'Billy Quizboy and the Invisible Hand'. You may begin speculating on what will happen in that episode... now! Also don't forget the Shadowman 9 discussion thread right below here. Enjoy!

Edit (11:33pm): Thanks to Kuiosikle in the comments for mentioning this thread on PRoV which has some more episode names:
  • My Dinner With Hatred - June 22, 2008
  • Enter the Bad Seed - June 29, 2008
  • Dr. Guymn, Medicine Woman - July 6, 2008
Sadly no source for these yet, but I'll totally add them when I find a source. The lack of pre-knowing all the episodes titles this season is kind of a bummer.

Update #2: (1:55am) - Nais over on the VB Wiki was nice enough to post his source, so I'm pretty confident these are accurate. Awesome sleuthing!

Shadowman 9: In the Cradle of Destiny Discussion

Since these were fairly popular last season (you know, back in 2006) I'll be putting them up this season for each episode as well. You can use the comments here to post whatever you want about the season three premiere episode. If you're wondering why it's up at 6pm (EST) on Friday it's because that's when the episode gets put up on Adult Swim.com in the video section.

If you haven't seen the episode yet and don't want it to be spoiled you are advised not to read these comments! There may be spoilers present! You have been warned!

Season Three Preview Scene!

With two days to go before TV and, uh, like six hours to go before Internet, here's an early scene from the premiere that AS released. It may just tide you over.

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.

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!
