    I honestly can't tell whether they're making it up as they go along or they have a huge elaborate plan. My guess is that Publick and Hammer have a basic plan for what they want to do (each season seems to have a "theme") and that they throw things in each episode to either mess with or inspire each other. #theventurebrothers

    I can't wait for Sunday night. Adult Swim has cancelled most of the shows I like (Lucy, Drinky Crow, Moral Orel), and renewed programs that are utter codswallop ( Xavier, Tim and Eric, etc.), so if it weren't for The Venture Brothers, I might give up on Channel 296 altogether. #theventurebrothers

    @Cynical Media Bitch: Aw come on, they needed the money to produce their new reality show programming blocks.

    You surely can't think there are enough reality shows out there? Good God you're selfish.

    I don't need to read your lite spoilers or your review to know that my life will get way more awesome as soon as I get more Ventures into me. Most brilliant show on television right now. #theventurebrothers

    ...a terrible, impossible choice-to unravel the very fabric of the world, or to save it?

    Really? How is that an "impossible choice?" You could either save the fabric of the world, and therefore countless existences...or not.

    Oh yes, it's a terrible dilemma.

    @Aidan_: The Chronopedon loomed above Dr. Brock Quinn, his jointed arms reaching out in all directions, fading in and out of reality where it pierced through the veil of this world like a fist plunged through rotting leather.
    -MAKE YOUR CHOICE MORTAL
    Dr. Brock Quinn looked up at the creature of unimaginable hatred and sin.
    -Um. Hmm. Well I don't know. What do you mean by 'save it'?
    -HUMAN MAKE YOUR CHOICE
    -Well okay but 'save' it like... save it as it is? Can I save it in a better state? Maybe replenish the coral reefs a bit.
    -WHAT IS 'REEF'?
    -Oh just a complex interchange between marine species and a certain kind of polyp-
    -SHUT UP!
    -What about ice cream?
    -ICED CREAM? The creature's voice echoed through the distant corners of dying universes.
    -Ice cream. Singular. If I save the world will there still be ice cream? I noticed it's pretty hot where we are now, I wanted to make sure you'd remember about ice cream.
    -THE WORLD WILL BE IF YOU SAY... JUST... SAY!
    -Oh everything but cherry. Can I save everything but cherry?
    -RRRRRR

    i used to love watching this show is season 1 because it was fun.

    season 2 my sense of fanboy cringed with every miss-step they took.

    season 3 i had so much joining in mocking the show in review boards

    i havent brought myself to watch this season yet. i am avoiding watch it, the same way i avoid watching Private Practice

    Wait, have they been sending out preview copy things of all the episodes this season,or it this another exception they're making in order to advertize the hell out of their precious lesbian kiss?
    Considering the sneak peeks also only "returned" for this episode, and that Hayden has to lead countless interviews about her lesbian kiss, I assume it is the latter?

    Does anybody else think it's a bit risky for a sci-fi show to focus 80% of its advertizing on one moment in an early episode? What are they going to do afterwards, publicity-wise? And why would they think people tune in to see a kiss if they release the scene in a preview before the episode airs, early enough for the news to make the rounds that it is not worth it?

    Could it be that the PR department of NBC is trying to kill the show?

    I'll be saying "dirt-power" a lot more now instead of "terrakinesis". Way easier to remember.
