The Venture Bros: Season Six Blu-ray Posted August 19, 2016 02:07 AM by



Adult Swim and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment have announced the Blu-ray release of The Venture Bros: Season Six, which includes all eight sixth season episodes. The animated series returns to Blu-ray on October 4th.



Synopsis: One of the longest running series on Adult Swim, The Venture Bros. follows the adventures of the Venture family, an eclectic clan comprised of the world-renowned Dr. Venture, a pill-popping, failed super scientist and father of the fraternal, not-so-bright twin brothers Hank and Dean. Joining them is their tough-as-nails bodyguard Brock (Patrick Warburton, Seinfeld, The Tick) who was appointed by the government to protect the family from any threat or violence. Together, they embark on a series of odd misadventures that take them around the globe as they fight off villains, most notably The Monarch, the family's arch villain.



With Season Six, get set for more exploits with brothers Hank and Dean as Dr. Venture inherits a fortune and moves his family into a spectacular new home in the Big Apple. Fabulously wealthy and settled in their luxurious, new compound, the Venture clan embarks on an exciting new season filled with more drama and danger!



Created by Jackson Publick (The Tick) The Venture Bros. was launched in 2004 and since then, has emerged as one of Adult Swim's most popular and beloved shows. Praised by fans and critics for its creativity, wit and originality, The Venture Bros. is a clever spoof of popular animated science fiction/adventure shows of the 1960s. The sixth season of The Venture Bros. ranked as the number one show in its timeslot among adults and men 18-24, adults and men 18-34 and adults and men 18-49.

drb124 Aug 19, 2016 I would love a box set whenever the series ends or at least a release of the first two seasons.

Herry Dunston Aug 19, 2016 Not a great season for such a long wait; feels incomplete. Still, that final episode of this season is hilarious.

Crispy Noodle Aug 19, 2016 Just glad to see a Blu-ray since the last season of Robot Chicken was DVD only (and they're both Warner's.)

Top contributor Grethiwha Aug 19, 2016 Herry Dunston: Indeed just as season 5 felt incomplete, and the special made 2 years later (included here) All This and Gargantua 2 was meant as the "real" season 5 finale, I have the feeling that it'll be a similar situation for season 6, which also lacked the big finale seen in season 4 and earlier.



That said, otherwise season 6 was amazing! The way every episode picked up where the last left off - it was like one big movie and the series has never been that exciting throughout the season before. Humour was top-notch too. An outstanding season - totally reinvigorated my love of the show! Very happy they're still releasing this on blu-ray!



I hope this includes the epilogues from the first couple episodes, since they aren't explicitly mentioned here. derekbd Aug 20, 2016 I respectfully disagree stongly, Herry. Yes, the wait was long, and that may continue for the foreseeable, but season 6 was brilliant in my mind and I know that more than a few other fans agree with me. It was not raw as the series was in the first 3 seasons; this definitely had a polish and slickness that might turn some people off, but Jackson and Doc still spewing out pop culture references that I doubt anybody could understand all of without the help of other (incredibly intelligent and geeky) folk in interwebland. The characters introduced this season were very welcome (in varying degrees). Wide Wale is my fave new one. Blue Morpho and the question of his (and the Monarch's) parentage is the newest addition to the mystery of the main player's pasts. And finding out Jonas was a swinger might explain a lot!



The only drawbacks I can see were the fact that Gargantua 2 took up 2 episodes that they thought they still had to finish the season with, so the story has to be continued yet (again) the next time they pull it all together and present us with more. The other was the absence of some beloved supporting characters such as Dr Morpheus and his daughter Triana.



I highly anticipate more and in the meantime this blu release will feed us a few scraps that will come way short of tiding us over. Ah the pain of being a Venture Bros freak.



(I know I got away from the point a bit there. My enthusiasm is high atm.)

Herry Dunston Aug 20, 2016 I don't mind you guys having a different opinion than mine. I do agree that the plotting is impressive as always by the two guys, but the humor doesn't really hit home for me for the majority of S6 episodes, likely because I've grown too accustomed by their meta banter at this point. And it does seem like since S4 ended, Doc and Jack are struggling to keep subsequent seasons containable. If we have to yet another couple of years to get a proper S6 finale like before, I can't compliment that, not to mention S6 goes less of anywhere than S5 beyond the new location and a hint of Monarch's patriarchal origin (plus, him playing pretend-hero had its moments). The new characters in S6 are indeed welcoming, and they brought the best Clancy Brown in Red Death, who's part of why I love the S6 "finale" as its own episode.



It is sad that a few of the old characters didn't complain, but we all know Triana was never gonna return, not after the Lisa Hammer split up with Doc.

Mr. Pink Aug 21, 2016 So glad this is coming to blu,was worried it wouldn't
