“Venture Brothers,” one of he longest running series on Adult Swim, has been canceled after seven seasons over 17 years, series co-creator Christopher McCulloch announced Monday.
“Unfortunately, it’s true: #VentureBros has been canceled,” McCulloch tweeted under his Jackson Publick pseudonym on behalf of himself and co-creator Eric “Doc” Hammer. “We got the highly disappointing news a few months ago, while we were writing what would have been season 8. We thank you, our amazing fans, for 17 years of your kind (and patient) attention. And, as always, We Love You.”
However, Adult Swim suggested that the show might continue in some form. “We also want more Venture Bros. and have been working with Jackson and Doc to find another way to continue the Venture Bros. story,” the network tweeted late Monday.

(Note: This post contains spoilers for “The Venture Bros.” Season 7 finale from Oct. 7.)
In the Season 7 finale, “The Venture Bros.” finally — finally — confirmed something the show has been slowly teasing literally for years: There is a familial relationship between protagonist Doc “Rusty” Venture (James Urbaniak) and The Monarch (Christopher McCulloch), the supervillain who hates him. And more importantly, now they both know it.
Will “The Venture Bros.” once again refer to more than just Rusty’s sons, Hank and Dean? Sure looks like it. And that has huge implications for Season 8.
Holy crap, everyone.

(Note: This post contains spoilers from the Sept. 2 episode of “The Venture Bros.”)
Now that “The Venture Bros.” has dished out a bunch of lore twists and set them aside, the Adult Swim animated series has quickly come back on track of telling the story of two young men trying to find their way through their weirdo life.
The fifth episode of the season, “The Inamorata Consequence,” still does that awesome “Venture” thing of plumbing the depths of things that have been mentioned on the show before to drop a lore reveal you probably never thought about, but makes perfect sense. Unlike in the first three episodes of the season, though, when the show was tying off a bunch of threads in “The Morpho Trilogy” just because they were dangling, the latest piece of historical info serves to create a quiet character moment for young Dean Venture (Michael Sinterniklaas) in keeping with Season 7’s themes.

The last two episodes of “The Venture Bros.” have set a new tone for the show’s seventh season. As always, the series is all about fathers, but this season is specifically about moving out of their shadows… and maybe killing them.
Two weeks ago, Adult Swim’s “The Venture Bros.” completed a three-episode arc that it described (after it started) as “The Morpho Trilogy.” The episodes wrapped up the events of Season 6, in which the Monarch (Christopher McCulloch) took on the role of the anti-hero Blue Morpho and started killing rival supervillains. The trilogy also dealt with a bunch of history and lore Season 6 introduced and teased — like the identity of the original Blue Morpho (Paul F. Tompkins), who turned out to be the Monarch’s father, and what ultimately happened to Jonas Venture Sr. (Paul Boocock), the father of series protagonist Rusty Venture (James Urbaniak), who supposedly died years earlier.

The art of parody doesn’t aspire to great heights. Typically, it takes a target, ridicules its subject matter or approach to it, and then closes with a laugh. It seeks to entertain and possibly provide a new slant on the same message. Parody doesn’t evolve. It might build up a catalog of jokes on popular topics, but it never reaches for a self-sustaining existence, one where it dreams up its own comic basis, content to latch on and draw material from elsewhere. That’s where The Venture Bros. started, as a show that lambasted Hanna-Barbera adventure shows like Jonny Quest or Scooby-Doo by staging its own series of random adventures based on the life of a resentful scientist who grew up as the son of the world’s most beloved mystery-solving, crime fighting hero.
As the series worked its way through the first season, it was clear it had aspirations beyond adventure parody.
