a total bummer, especially since this was my absolute favorite show of all time, ok?

but i get it. it was taking 2+ years in between seasons, and the show lost viewers every time it came back. but the show still had a strong, loyal base. i thought it was enough, but apparently not, ok?

the show started 17 years ago, which is just crazy, and all good things must come to an end, but i was hoping they'd, at least, get to end the show properly, ok?

What is even left on adult swim now? Do they just think some shit like Eric Andre is gonna carry them? because other than that I cannot name a single show on there anymore.

I'm seriously mad. You ruined my fuckin day ziggi.

They've said they're sort of looking into alternatives to un-cancel it. Adult Swim itself has said they don't necessarily want it gone.

My first thought was they might down down some weird Kickstarter route where they agree if they get X amount of money from fans Adult Swim/Cartoon Network/Warner Bros/AT&T will pony up the rest, though I have no idea if they'd want to do that.

Some people have talked up the idea of HBO Max picking it up (because they've done it before, and because it's owned by Warner Media), though it's been pointed out that Venture Bros might be more complicated because it already has a distribution deal via Hulu (which is 2/3rds owned by Disney). Unless they can get Venture Bros pulled off Hulu and then shift the entire series to HBO, they might not want to do it.

It's not like it matters, the only people who still watch the channel at all are mostly just stoned college students, and they'll watch pretty much anything.

That's probably why they've brought 12oz Mouse back.

But here's the rest of what they're apparently broadcasting these days:

Could find second life on Netflix. Netflix throws money around like a horny sailor on shore leave after 6 months at sea.

No, it just takes like like 4 years to produce each new season.

i always thought squidbillies was funny, because it was a total parody of southern bible-thumping culture. in some ways it was shockingly truthful, but at the same time being the dumbest show possible. it was kind of brilliant. haven't watched it in years, though, ok?
