I don't think one episode out of dozens is gonna incite disappointment, not unless it just completely tarnishes everything great about the show.

S6ETheLastOneForNow: Red Means Stop

Ok, definitely not the usual opening scene, but even in this horror scenario there are still Venture Bros stylings. One of the captives is freaking out about the situation. The other...wants pants.

Bad news: failing marriage, hentai
Good news: council's not in a position to stop Blue Morpho antics

Red Death is the next target...and while the council might not be in action on the surface, that isn't stopping secret dealings from happening!

Red Death is also a surprisingly likable chum, considering how he looks. Does that make me racist? Do red skull people qualify as a race? Still, such instant affableness towards The Monarch is gonna make eliminating him quite the challenge.

While it is nice to see another joint venture with guild and OSI, highlighting how very similar the two organizations are, that doesn't stop them from acting like children towards each other, all but tearing their clandestine alliance apart.

Meanwhile, Red Death is pulling out all the stops to pretend like this is a show where something legit will happen.

At dinner, Rusty's got quite the grenade horror story, the ease with which his company laughs tells the viewer everything they need to know about this universe.

The guild/OSI dressed up like Venture people is a hoot. They even do the 'go team venture' sign.

It later turns into an actual party, the legit sort, not the 'im arching you, or am i' sort.

Red Death apparently sees through all, as his departure and locating of the Morpho cave and recognition of The Monarch suggests. In one episode he's basically topped out the competency scale. All while having a pretty normal family side too.

...oh, well, that explains the kidnapped supervillains. Perhaps the mother of all 'i should have suspected this in hindsight' moments. There were probably all sorts of tells throughout the season too. 21 accidentally being the most gruesome of the lot, who knew?

Classic Monarch moment too..."Why didn't you tell me we had a bathroom down here?"

So yeah, I agree, it doesn't feel much like an ending, but it now means I am current with the series. All this setup though, I bet it'll be pretty rad when season 7 rolls around. There are quite a number of places they can take this.
