UPDATE!! The Cartoon Network just informed me I actually saw and reviewed 4.2 below instead of tonight's 4.1. I've no idea why!
Original post:
I am – Hercules!!
Notes on the brilliant fourth-season premiere of “The Venture Bros.” premiering Sunday:
* Episode’s first line: “Ah ha ha ha ha ha!! Time to pay the piper, Venture!!”
* Brock is still absent and Rusty has taken on a surprising (and ill-chosen!) replacement.

I am – Hercules!!
The Cleaner initiates a grotesque mop-up!
The jumper cables go on HELPeR's eyes!
The clones are all wearing Sting's codpiece from "Dune"!
You can wait till 11:30 p.m. Sunday (practically Monday!) and watch it with a bunch of commercials, or you can just watch it right now by clicking ...

Who knew? Some supercool artwork from the upcoming third season of “The Venture Bros.” has been up on series mastermind Jackson Publik’s website since Christmas Eve.
Many old characters return, many new are introduced. No sign of David Bowie’s crew, but that could be Dick Cavett on the extreme left. The Orpheus family is sporting a new look. As is Quizboy.

To celebrate the DVD release this week of “The Venture Bros.'” second season, the magazine Reason just posted a long interview with series mastermind Jackson Publick. Here’s what he has to say about the Venture boys' butterfly archnemesis, The Monarch:
I love old Spider-Man comics, but when I read them I wonder, what the hell do these guys want? What makes you put a costume on and start chasing somebody around? What makes you have a lifelong commitment to resenting a specific other human being? Because it's so pointless we've purposely made it more so. Also, I've known a couple of trust fund kids. Their goals are strange and take... a little longer to get to than some people who have to work a little more. It's pointless.
