My TV blogging tends to be disastrous (plug for Lost right before its largely irrelevant second season; reviews of The Sopranos during what history will likely regard as its worst patch of episodes), which is why I don't do it very often. But I'm making a special case just this once.
Over the weekend, I picked up the first season box of Adult Swim's The Venture Bros. on DVD. Now, buying TV on DVD is not really a special or rare occurence for me, otherwise there would be almost constant TV-flogging here. Anyway, I tore through the thirteen episodes pretty quickly (Id seen about half of them before - one of those classic situations where every time I'd turn the show on, it would be the same episode), and got to idly wondering today when and if there'd be a second season.
Turns out the second season begins this Sunday at 10:30 pm EDT. I don't know if anyone but me cares about the show (although you should) or if anyone else was unaware of its impending return (I suppose there are likely advertisements on Adult Swim, but who the hell still watches Adult Swim?), but I thought it best I send this on, as a bit of a public service announcement

Just a few rules so that everybody can have fun: ad hominem attacks on the blogger are fair; ad hominem attacks on other commenters will be deleted. And I will absolutely not stand for anything that is, in my judgment, demeaning, insulting or hateful to any gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion. And though I won't insist on keeping politics out, let's think long and hard before we say anything particularly inflammatory.
Also, sorry about the whole "must be a registered user" thing, but I do deeply hate to get spam, and I refuse to take on the totalitarian mantle of moderating comments, and I am much too lazy to try to migrate over to a better comments system than the one that comes pre-loaded with Blogger.
You know, if you blogged Deadwood, you could up your win percentage significantly...
ReplyDeleteAnd somehow I stumbled into almost exclusively tv blogging. But going to Philadelphia put me behind already.
ReplyDeleteLost season 2 was irrelevant? That statement blew your track record more than anything you'd written before...
ReplyDeleteso, wait, where's the part of the post where you tell us why The Venture Bros. is good? Are we talking home movies good or final episodes of EVA good?
ReplyDeletewhat i'd really like is a little image of the dvd box on the left or right and a number between one and ten...
ReplyDeleteYES! Jack is my new brother-in-arms. Or brother-in-laziness, whatever you want to call it.
