Live-blogging the Venture Bros season finale

[thehefner]

Watching Venture Bros season finale.

ME: I apologize in advance for the two dozen times I'll be saying "Double up, unn, unn!" over the next couple weeks.

HENCHGIRL: (with resignation) Couple weeks, nothing. You're gonna max out before bedtime.

Bear in mind, she speaks as someone who's had to endure me repeatedly saying "Boom! Yummy" in a poor Shore Leave impersonation.

Updates may come over the next commercial breaks.

...

"Meow." I will not become Rusty Venture when I grow up. I will not become Rusty Venture when I grow up. I will not become Rusty Venture when I grow up. (Quoth Henchgirl: hahaha, oh yes you will!)

...

God, please, please don't let the "What is a Rusty Venture?" gag go on any longer. Please. It's actually literally gonna make Henchgirl throw up.

...

WELL. About time we saw him and/or her again! Meow. ... Damn it, it's already happening.

...

Nooooooo, is that truly the end of the 24 saga? God, it evokes memories of the last couple episodes of Cold Feet. ... No one has any idea what that is, do you?


...

FUCK YEAH RETURN OF GO TEAM VENTURE even if it was rather subdued. Even melancholic.

...

Oh Gary.

...

So don't be surprised if the commentary becomes incomprehensible blather from my mind-blown asblsajsaa&&^^n.

...

GENERAL! NOOOOOOOOO.

...

Oh. Never mind. Yay? Yay!

...

Damn, she is cold.

...

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

...

I know this is exactly why you guys read my LJ: you're in it for the witty, eloquent critical insights.

...

OH GOD DEAN NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

...

Welp, Dean, he's right, but y'know what? He's a smug pretty boy who gets to sleep with Orpheus' ex-wife, so screw him, and go you, you poor schmuck you. I just hope that this isn't the first step to Dean becoming his father.

Good ending. I'm both very relieved and a bit disappointed that it didn't end with a "WHAT? NO! FUCK NO NO NO COME BACK NO" cliffhanger like last season's. So there we go. Time to wait another ridiculous amount of time for Season 5.

...

So wait, were the prostitutes actually Mol's girls, or was she lying to screw with Brock? If they were, then damn, Rusty saved the day by being a horrible, horrible person. If not, then Rusty really outdid himself in the horrible, horrible person department.

Shore Leave damn well better not put him through the brainwasher again. Al deserves happiness! God, what's it say that I'm so much more invested in the lives of these characters than any other show, animated or live-action, on TV?

John, it's the best written show on television. Bar none. Nothing else touches it. That's what it says, cause that is the fucking truth, and anyone who tries to argue different is wrong, stupid and bad and should feel bad and then be publicly flogged with very large sticks.

Maybe that brainwasher is what works for them. Al, gets super-clingy after the first few weeks apparently, so ShoreLeave can just keep him in the first few weeks stage forever!
