UPDATE: Shallow Gravy special now airing on 8/28

Majikthise · 01-18-2004

THE VENTURE BROS. SPECIAL - FROM THE LADLE TO THE GRAVE: THE STORY OF SHALLOW GRAVY - See the Venture Family as you've never seen them before: in a 15-minute documentary-style animated special. Follow the meteoric rise, the equally meteoric fall, and the decidedly un-meteor-like second coming of the most important band Hank Venture, Dermott Fitctel and H.E.L.P.eR. robot have ever been in: Shallow Gravy. If you're hungry for rock, then open wide, because here comes a ladle of heavy metal fire and metaphoric meat drippings. Launched on Adult Swim in August 2004, The Venture Bros. is an inspired spoof of 1960s action cartoon shows such as Johnny Quest. Created by Jackson Publick III (King of the Hill, The Tick), the 30-minute animated series follows the bizarre misadventures of the Venture family. The Venture Bros. Special - From the Ladle to the Grave: The Story of Shallow Gravy premieres July 24 on Adult Swim.

This description itself leads to excitement of the sexual variety.

Well, I'm glad someone's excited about this.

Wonderful. Soon we shall all be wallowing wrist deep in a heaping pile of Shallow Gravy. I'll get my straw.

...So I have that, also.

Majikthise · 01-18-2004

Do you mean waist deep?

The difference between the distance of your relaxed arms wrists and waist could make or break whether I watch this or not. Are we talking thumbs in your pockets or thumbs in your beltloops maybe? If it's waist, I'm out, if it's wrist then I will just watch it with my arms in the air.

You caught a weakness in my hastily assembled metaphor, Mr. Majik. The seed of your loins is quite astute, as usual.

In truth all I wanted to say was, "I'll get my straw."

As if to suggest that I was ready to metaphoricly slup up all the Shallow Gravy I could find.

...So I have that, also.

This is a great birthday present.

Oldtimewhitie · 10-22-2009

Birthday present or not, I'm a bit surprised that more people haven't chimed in on this "special". Everything about the Venture bros is "special", so where's the fuss?

Too many people dropping Tweet bombs and Facebooking four thousand fake friends on their smart phones probably. Bunch of screen tappers.

...So I have that, also.

I'm not a big rock fan. I'll just watch it because it's VB.

Well as you can see from this statement from the press release :"The Venture Bros. Special - From the Ladle to the Grave: The Story of Shallow Gravy premieres July 24 on Adult Swim" - there was a lot of ambiguity.

Uh..........wa......uh......you......you think of something.

Majikthise · 01-18-2004

Huh. I just checked the paper schedule and the Shallow Gravy special is not listed on the 24th. What giveth?

Easily the best show on TV with a plot that hasn't been canceled yet!

Apparently Doc and Jackson are going to premiere it during the Venture Bros comic-con panel. It's going to air on television on August 28th now, according to this:http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Here-s-Your-Friday-Schedule-For-Sa

Might need to scroll down a bit.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I have amended the OP accordingly.

Mmmm.... tongue polish.

I wonder if they'll screen it at Dragon*Con too. I know it will have aired by then but I have seen them show episodes and do live commentary during them at conventions.
