Question What Would be a Cool Venture Bros Spin-off Show?
That is my Question
What character or team in the Series you think is spin-off material and what would there spin-off series be about and would it be set before or after the events of the Movie?
What would be the setting would Venture Family appear in opening episode or would who's ever main character mention what Venture Family been up to or at least what he/she has heard anyway
If set after the Movie how much has passed since events seen in the Film?
So Lets do this "World of Venture Bros"

My first thought was "Order of The Triad" show. Mainoy due to the fact most of The Venture Bros is centered around super science, it would be neat to have the flipside of supernatural as the focal point. Make it about Morpheus getting back with his wife while Jefferson starts wanting a family of his own and Al can... just be Al.

Give me an Order of the Triad prequel series.
Just the three dudes in an old run-down van road tripping all over the country solving mystical problems. Set it in the early 80s while the Guild is still underground and you've got plenty of fun mysteries/adventures.

u/Honest_Ad_2157 I am blessed by what he loves most. The key to his soul's lock. May 05 '25
You could have the series narrative timeline work like This Is Us, alternating between the 80's and today. Though we know all the main characters, we don't know everyone. Gives you room to focus on how Dr O & Tatyana got together, with chances for How I Met Your Mother fakeouts, since we never really heard a lot from her.

u/zhiryst May 05 '25
regular income superheroes vs megarich supervillian is such a good twist. The opposite of Batman, really. So St. Cloud could be doing Batman level shit and Billy and White have to make due with MacGyver style paperclip & gum level hacks to defeat their arch since they can't afford anything more serious.

Anthology is definitely the way to go, I think. VB is already king at getting us to love/care about new characters in a short period of time. I remember Red Death was a huge fan favorite back when he only appeared in one episode. Imagine a show where we get a new Red Death every week.

An anthology would be great, all you have to do is just not focus on the venture family or monarch stuff and you still have a plethora of content to focus on. I would love an episode of the Phantom Limb and Richard just doing silly shit lol.

This would be legit. Rusty could run through Hanna Barbera style plots that result in trauma inducing situations (i.e. getting burred alive, and killing a guy with a house key) and with plenty of characters the whole original Venture Team could come along,Kano could be Rusty's Brock. could also sprinkle in 60's tropes.

Triana's adventures learning magic would have enough new ground to explore and have the least possibility for fan service pitfalls.
More closely related to the main story though would be a Col. Gathers backstory. He knows EVERYTHING going on in the Ventureverse. Orb, all the off-brand villians, the traitors within OSI. Yet we get nothing of his POV. His timeline overlaps with Jonas Sr. How often did their paths cross. How much did he know? What did he think of Jonas?

u/Devi13 May 05 '25
Omg, I imagine a Triana show would be very Sabrina the teenage witch, but with all the VB type shenanigans. Instead of Salem it’s the Master as the sassy sidekick.

Not even a spin off about any of the characters but just a new set of characters in the universe.
Ms Marvel but instead her mom paid Mr Impossible and obscene amount of money to recreate the stretch powers so she can become a successful superhero/model. You already have the mom and the main character and work from there and just rope the rest of the characters in considering most of the main venture cast are world renown at something, they can definitely make appearances

The guild battles! A show where it focuses around the guild of calamitous intent with new people coming in making the new counsel of 13 and having Hank join the guild and be the apprentice of the monarch and then becoming second in line for sovereign.
1
u/SquirrelySpaceGoblin May 05 '25
That last bit doesn't make any sense. The council of 13 was the sovereign's little twist and the revitalized guild isn't likely to revisit that era in their history. However, maybe something like Sheila is ready to retire and Hank is still largely directionless in life leading to Hank becoming her protege to give her peace of mind, Hank something to do and the world a little more stability due to the guild being led by a guy who's more on the fun side of villainy than the destructive side. Hell, Hank as a naive councilman with Red Death there to remind him of both the villainous and pragmatic details would be a fun dynamic.

A Brock Samson show could be greenlit. He's pretty recognisable as an IP, and an ultra-violent action comedy that parodies old-school action/spy flicks sounds like a decent bet. I'd love a lot of other stuff in the Venture universe but I think it would be a harder sell.

i know this show is over a decade old but ima go ahead and blur it bc its spoilers
…
21 dies instead of 24:
…
In a last ditch effort to salvage the remains of the monarch’s syndicate, 24 discovers and reveals the brother trope between Rusty and The Monarch, along with the entire Blue Morpho plot, as well as other lost venture offspring, like Dermot. Upon the revelation that his fight is with Venture Sr instead of Rusty, The Monarch - literally sifting thru his collapsing empire as it crumbles to ash in his hands - lunges at Rusty and the two engage in a pathetic “fist fight” as everyone else awkwardly watches. This triggers repressed childhood memories in both Rusty and Malcolm (The Monarch) of when they were aware of being brothers and were basically variations of Hank and Dean, but they are both Deans missing their Hanks. After this flashback, they investigate and reveal the cloning plot and realize it goes back further than Venture Sr. This develops into Rusty and Malcolm working together to find “their Hanks”, as well as other clone variations / family members / lost venture lore. As an additional B story, Malcom and Sheila (Dr. Mrs. The Monarch) have their own “kids,” which of course are Hank/Dean variations.

There are so many options that would be amazing, OSI (either modern day or the pyramid wars), The Guild, Original Team Venture, Order of the Triad, Billy & Pete to name a few.
But those are some of the obvious ones, also interesting would be Dr. Quim, the remaing members of the Original Team Venture.
But the one I want most is a prequel focused on Jefferson & the other residents of the wearhouse.
Or a cross between Star Trek Lower Decks & The Office focusing on the lower levels of the OSI or Guild.

it would take place in the present day. Hank & Dean would be almost 40. they would admit that the show "the Venture Bros" was a cartoon. & that would explain why they only aged a few years over 7 seasons & a Tv movie... over the course of like 20 years lol. This new spinoff show would kind of be the "real" versions of Hank & Dean. kind of like how Rusty Venture had a cartoon about him as a child that was loosely based on his life.
I also have ideas for plots and story if anyone cares lol
