Venture Brothers Shout Out!
Edited on Thu Aug-18-11 06:30 PM by arbusto_baboso
Any Venture Brothers fans check in here.

Also, tell your favorite moment from the show, and any bit of personal trivia about the show and how it relates to you that might be of interest.

I'll start:

My favorite moment is from the 4th season episode Bright Lights, Dean City. In it, the Revenge Society is interviewing for new members. One candidate, who looks a LOT like Mitt Romney, introduces himself as Mr. Polygamy. Each of his four arms is wrapped around a different woman, and he introduces them as "Mrs. poygamy, Mrs. Polygamy, Mrs. Polygamy and Mrs. Polygamy."

Then Professor Impossible asks him, "Just what does Magic Underwear do?"

On a personal note, I'm going to a Halloween party this year as Dr. Orpheus as I do a dead-on impersonation of him, even though I look more like Henchman 21.

1. Yes, I am a fan
Although I've only seen about 15 episodes. It's a fun show, I do enjoy it. Not sure about a favorite moment. I like the overall demented Johnny Quest vibe to it.

2. all my favorite lines are from the Monarch.
Like when Orpheus sets Monarch's feet on fire at Venture's garage sale and the Monarch just says, "You dick!" It's almost Spicoli-like.

After Dr. Girlfriend seduces Venture: "He's really not a bad guy, you actually have a lot in common..." Monarch: "Yeah, we do NOW..."

"I'll take the one dressed like Taco..."

"It also turned him into a humorless dick!"

4. Love it!!
My favorite line is from "Twenty Years to Midnight"..

When the "Jonas Sr." alien heads back in to the portal

Quoted from: http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/The_Venture_Bros.#Twenty_Years_to_Midnight

"Jonas Venture": Alright, fine, you wanna see? Here! (Peels off his face, revealing his true self, which is shown offscreen, but horrifies everyone else) There! That would have been better? If I showed up like that out of nowhere? Look at you! You practically crapped your pants! Except him, he crapped his pants! (points to Ned) Ned: Boom boom.

6. I really really like Venture Bros.
I haven't seen all of them, so no quotes or anything.

"Everyone can see your ... dirty bags."

And so much more.
