06:04 PMI have no faith in TV anymore. I assume Scrubs, so mistreated by NBC, will be jettisoned after this season (though NBC is so sickly it might need to keep these doctors around). I'm also assuming any show I like on TLC will be gone soon, since its executives been become so desperate in the face of plummeting ratings that they've convinced themselves all those horrible designers aren't the reason everyone quit watching Trading Spaces.
But I dared cross my fingers for one thing, and it has come to pass.
Thirteen more episodes of The Venture Bros. are on the way.
(A link to the news will come when it gets posted somewhere other than the Toonzone forums. I wouldn't send anyone inside that sad asylum's walls. [Update, 03.25.05: Here's the news straight from the show creator's mouth, which apparently was filled yesterday with booze, pizza, and panini.])
An old friend, Sealab 2021, apparently has not made the Adult Swim cut, and for once in my TV life, I'm completely fine with this cancellation. Since I stumbled onto the show at what turned out to be its creative peak, it's been a long roll downhill. But now the DVDs of the great episodes are in hand, so it's time to pull the plug.

"Unless Congress wants to intervene."
And even then, the plug will still stay pulled.
