Venture Bros cancelled.

The author behind a recent art book for The Venture Bros. is saying the show has been cancelled after nearly eight seasons. Ken Plume, author of Go Team Venture!: The Art and Making of The Venture Bros., recently responded to a viral Tweet asking the Internet to name their favorite shows that were cancelled unnecessarily with The Venture Bros., and now fans are wondering if that means the series has indeed been cancelled following the now in-production season eight. Especially because Ken Plume was directly involved with series creators Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer during the production of the art book.

Ken Plume responded to his Tweet later with "I have no further comment.," and thus further raised the mystery with fans. An official announcement for the series has yet to be made since the eighth season was announced to be in the works back in 2018, and there has been no official confirmation of cancellation.
It's been confirmed by Jackson Publick that the show is cancelled.

This is a bummer; 8 was going to be a finale anyway, & it was already previously greenlit (hence Publick & Hammer writing scripts). Shortly after this, though, Adult Swim hinted at some kind of future Venture content, so maybe they'll get a movie to wrap things up?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

This sucks. Venture Bros. was one of the best examples of adult animation out there, and probably the best original program Adult Swim has ever produced.

Yeah, I've enjoyed a lot of [AS] programming over the years, but Venture Bros. felt really special and unique, especially because with it sometimes taking years off at a time, it felt like it was always coming back because they had new, fresh ideas instead of just churning out episodes out of contractual obligations and to make money.
