LEGAL BRIEFS

THE VENTURE BROS. take an adult swim

April 10th, 2006 5:50AM

Adult Swim's THE VENTURE BROS. - SEASON ONE

Coming to DVD May 30, from Warner Home Video

Wherever there is action, adventure, intrigue and some very odd villains, look for The Venture Bros., just stay clear of the booby traps! In addition to all 13 hilarious Season One episodes, the DVD will feature over three hours of never-before-seen bonus materials, all for $29.98.

SYNOPSIS
In this spoof of 1960s cartoons such as Jonny Quest and boys' adventure novels like "Tom Swift" and "The Hardy Boys" , the Venture brothers -- Hank and Dean -- travel around the world with their renowned scientist father, Doctor Venture. Imagining themselves as an unusually gifted team of "brains" and "brawn" - with very little of either - Hank and Dean treat even the most mundane situation like a bold new adventure or a curious mystery. As a result, they regularly find themselves in danger with a host of odd-ball villains - but rarely find their way out. Doc Venture, who can't stand his dimwitted sons, pops "diet pills" like candy and reeks of failure and unrealized potential. He hopes his new invention will bring him the glory and respect he has long sought and save Venture Industries. The show features the voice of Patrick Warburton (The Tick) fame who voices Brock Sampson the family bodyguard. Brock is a former secret agent assigned to the Venture family and then promptly forgotten by the government. Impossibly muscle-bound, he is everything Doc Venture would love to be -- strong, violent, and catnip to the ladies.
