I’ll repeat what I’ve said elsewhere: The Narrative Structure of the Venture Brothers show is debateably one of best I’ve seen anywhere. Seriously. The way they loop everything into another is really expertly done and the fact that there are story arcs in a cartoon comedy show…it boggles my numbed brain. The Captain Sunshine episode made me particularly happy…because you don’t know if the character was planned way back in season 2 or they just expanded on a joke character name they threw together in some random small talk from same episode in season 2. Goofy example but the way all the stories and characters are linked is insanely complex for what you’d expect from a show like this.

Of course, in film school I did my whole program on experimental narratives, so I fanboy gush on a couple of levels here. Forgive my sins.

Have been following this season with “fan-boy” fanatcism…

And I agree – there are way too many people out there that when you say “OMG…did you see this week’s Venture Brothers?!” give you this cow-chewing-cud look that means they’re probably only watching what the major networks spoon-feed them.

We can only hope they are the first to go when the zombies overrun the country…

Asmor: All of those shows are incredibly popular and have a lot of viewers, there are still a LOT of people who don’t watch or have only barely heard of Venture Brothers. See Lunatyk’s comment above.

Vince: Exactly, the man very easily defines the role with just his voice.

You can also rock out to some Kevin Conroy *as* Batman in Batman: Arkham Asylum, and Superman/Batman: Public Enemies.

The man is and always will be the one true Batman.

Wow. Seriously? You’re hyping Venture Brothers?

Here are some other fresh new shows people might not have heard of: The Simpsons, Stargate SG-1, South Park, The Daily Show.

Oh, and as long as we’re giving outdated advice, I strongly urge Americans to vote for Al Gore over George Bush.

Lunatyk: I definitely recommend watching the first few episodes of Season 1 before anything else, I don’t think I’ve heard from anyone that doesn’t like the show so check it out!

I ave to admit that I am behind on the current episodes. Things that involve real life have gotten in the way, but I plan on sitting down and catching up soon! Venture Brothers is one of my favorite cartoons and is so awesome it hurts. .-= Tyson J. Hayes´s last blog ..Good Enough to Eat =-.
