New This Week
The fifth-season “Venture Bros.” set arrives today on Blu-ray. My review of the season premiere:
The Venture Bros. 5.1 FAQ
What’s it called?
“What Color Is Your Cleansuit?”
Who’s responsible?
Series mastermind Jackson Publick directs from a teleplay by Publick & Doc Hammer.
How does it start?
With Brock Samson repelling toward the Venture compound.
Do we get a lot of Brock this week?
No, he just appears in the pre-title teaser.
Do we get to hear Patrick Warburton’s voice this time?
We do.
The big news?
The supersized hiatus appears to have done this series a world of good. This hilarious and imaginative hourlong episode, which covers three months in the characters’ lives represents a real return to form.
What else is Cartoon Network not telling us?
Triana Orpheus’s rejection pushes Dean in new, slightly less dweeby directions.Billy Quizboy acquires his own Guild of Calamitous Intent-certified archenemy. The Monarch has been watching a lot of “Game of Thrones.”
What’s great?
Rusty’s utter disregard for the health and well-being of his platoon of new interns. The screaming victim from whom Rusty tries to get a production update. Dean’s post-frisbee daydreams. The “Stop That Blundering” instructional film. Quizboy’s Trek-flavored gloat.
What’s not so great?
Not as much Brock as one might prefer.
How does it end, spoiler boy?
“Hey, why do you still have tits?” queries 21. And Sheila suggests “antidoodlebugs.”
