Venture Bros. are getting two more seasons on Adult Swim and the news hits as the Season 4 Blu-ray drops today!
From Jackson Publick’s blog:
Hello again. I’ve been promising Big News for a while, but have had to keep it under wraps. Mostly because contracts take a long time to work out (even when all parties agree to their contents) and the PR department* would prefer to be professional and make a proper to-do about the timing and presentation of said Big News.
However…
It just occurred to me that Doc and I mouthed off about our big news all over the DVD commentaries, assuming when we recorded them in November/December that this would all be public knowledge by now. And since our fans seem to enjoy listening to the commentary tracks the day our DVDs come out–and then immediately discussing them on the internet (FIRST!)–this particular cat will soon be out of this particular bag anyway. So who better than this confessed cat person to deliver it safely?
Herewith the cat:
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.
I think that’s enough for you to chew on for a while. More news later as it develops. Now go buy some DVDs or something…
We Love You,
JP
