The Venture Bros. has been around for seven seasons over fifteen years, an underappreciated gem of an animated series.
Originally a parody of the 1960s Hanna-Barbera animated adventure show Jonny Quest, the the Venture Bros. has gone on to affectionately rag on pretty much every aspect of pop (especially nerd) culture, and has established a mind-boggling continuity and expansive universe.
In this episode, Team Venture travels deep into the jungle to... uh... steal a native fertility fetish and train an ape to prize fight. Both of these endeavors work out about as well as one might expect. Yet Doc, Brock, and the Venture Brothers all somehow find weird and uncomfortable ROMANTIC adventure in this primitive, wereodile-infested setting. (Like a werewolf, but with a crocodile instead of the wolf part.)
Dig the flashbacks to Jonas Venture Sr.'s swinging party for some incredible foreshadowing the would pay off many years later in the series!
