I hope to high hell he does, or I'm done with it, because I can't, CANNOT watch another season like 04.

I know, it was like a cruel joke NBC played on their fans. At least they are owning up to the mistake.

It had all the creepiness of the original with like 10% the jokes. And all the characters suddenly became bastardized versions of themselves.

It's easy to be humble when it earns you cash.

I feel optimistic about more being made, but I guess I should wait until I hear some actual data on the release.
If the new season of AD is, as Hurwitz has claimed it will be, "act one" and a lead-in to a film, then I think it will stand up against the others retrospectively. If this film never happens, however, and they don't do any more episodes, then I think they could have done more with it.

I'd prefer they just make more episodes. You get way more footage that way .

After all of my bitching, it's probably the funniest thing I will see from 2013.

I'd happily take more episodes too, but I just get this feeling that they will never completely get the entire cast together at the same time. They didn't quite manage it this time, which could have played a factor in why the format was very different. If they ever do, I guess it would make sense if they made a film to end it.

Venture Bros is the best Adult Swim there ever was.

I'm new to Loiter Squad, but I enjoy it. Totally random. Stoner sh*t, really.

I've been looking to get into some toons, so this will be cool. I've never been huge into cartoons / comics and I've been meaning to explore it some. I was huge into Nicktoons, but other than that just the usual South Park, FOX, and some Aqua Teen (forgetting some I'm sure).

Venture Bros is great toonage if you like a storyline, mature humor, and great characters.

If you like wacky toons, check into Harvey Birdman.

As far as Loiter Squad, that's just Tyler the Creator and his friends basically doing stupid sh*t like a black version of Jackass but far more random.
