    Happy Birthday for me as well, but that t-shirt club is some F'ing horseshit. I looked far and wide for a decent Venture shirt and could never find one and now they've got this elaborate bullshit club wrapped around just sporting a lousy shirt? Not to mention a shirt is just a walking ad anyway, they should practically GIVE the fucking things away as it is but $22 bucks a pop? I call BULLSHIT on this.

    How many episodes is this season?...

    by danielkurland

    When the season was first announced, they said it would be 20-sometihng episodes. I haven't heard anything aboutthat lately, and would assume that it's just the episode total for seasons 3 and 4, since they're being worked on back to back. Does anyone know for sure though? Is it just going to be a 13 episode season 3 and 4, or is seaso 3 actually 26 episodes?

    Malificus, you're pretty much right

    by shut the fuck up donny

    but I am regrettably a big enough fool (tool?) to think it's worth getting, as I want to do anything to give this show more and more recognition--and to hopefully show the suits that additional GOOD merchandising will be worth investing in and producing. I'm even still debating buying that Adult Swim figure set for another 200 dollars just to get the Monarch and Doctor Girlfriend figures. I haven't been truly been a fan of anything in years and I just really enjoy going overboard on something like I did when I was younger.

    by shut the fuck up donny

    I can't tell you why, but I am confident that between Jackson's blog and seeing Doc Hammer at DragonCon, this was addressed..If it turns out to be more, we can just see it as more goodies in our stockings.

    I agree ZeroCorpse. I'm not sure if they revealed the "secret" or not. When Monarch says "This is the last fucking thing I thought you'd say" what is the "this" he's referring to? Is the "this" referring to "getting attacked by robots"? That seems like a stretch.

    But immensely enjoyable and incredibly important in terms of the show's mythology and history. And honestly, when an episode can reveal so much and be so interesting, I really don't care that it's not the most hilarious episode of the series. Looks to be a great season.

    It's part of the "charm" of the episode. The Monarch knows, but we don't get to because the Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend need to deal with the Guild stuff. I'm sure we'll find out soon though.
