Go Team Venture!

?From Venture Bros. co-creator Jackson Publick’s blog:
We’ve recently signed a new contract with adultswim to produce two more seasons of The Venture Bros.
Doc
and I officially started writing last week. Though, in truth, we
technically started writing season 5 last year when we accidentally
brainstormed a handful of (we think) pretty hot new stories while we
were writing the season 4 finale. Our goal is to have enough scripts to
comfortably begin pre-production by June.But wait…that’s not all!
Our contract also includes a long-form (60-90 min.) Venture Bros.
special. Don’t ask me when we’ll make it, what it’s going to be about,
or whether it’ll be on TV or direct-to-DVD, because we don’t have a clue
yet. Nevertheless: good news!Tell them what else they get, Jackson…
We’ve been secretly working on an 11 minute Venture Bros.
special for the past couple of months. A sort of light-hearted, one-off
little aperitif we’re producing and animating entirely in-house at Titmouse Studios in NY and LA. It will premiere some time this summer.
FUCK AND YES. That is all. Oh, and thanks to Zortt1 for the tip.

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
