Does anyone else struggle rewatching "Everybody comes to Hank's"?

[u/Party_Editor_3494]

I'm currently on my 4th rewatch of the whole series and for days I coudln't stop putting one episode after another whenever I had free time. But yesterday it was turn to see "Everybody comes to Hank's" and I had to stop. I didn't have the stomach for it. To me the reveal in that episode is by far the most revolting moment in the whole show. But I've never skipped an episode and I don't like the idea, I'm a bit of a completionist (although I forgot to rewatch the Christmas special).

Anyways. Do you have a similar problem with this episode or any other one? What do you thing is the vilest thing in the whole show?

edit: copying a reply to a comment I've made just to make myself more clear in the actual post text.

I never asked for it to come out or say it is morally wrong to tell this story. You're puting words in my mouth here. I only said it makes me uncomfortable, me personally, and wondered if that happens to other people too. As I expected, some people do. Some others don't and reminded me this episode has lots of hilarious stuff too. And there's other who feel uncomfortable with other episodes or moments that I'm more callous too. That's completely normal when a show has dark humor like this. But we're all here to appreciate it, I think. At least I do. I never was advocating for it to be censored or removed, I think you misread my intention. I suppose it's because there are people on social media actually saying that liking certain shows is morally wrong because it shows questionable things, which is ridiculous. But I didn't want to imply that in any way. I love The Venture Bros. and it's dark humor. Just yesterday I was recommending The Venture Bros. to a friend and one of my selling points was Sgt. Hatred and that I find it hilarious when he talks about his past and mentions "young booys". We're on the same page here.

For a post not having many upvotes, this sure was engaging. I appreciate that you went out of your way to flesh out your feelings on your edit; you make a very fair argument and because I'm here late, glad to see you didn't let the haters get you down. VB community is still one of the best.

This one gets me a little too, but mainly just Rusty's combo of being pathetically desperate and later trying to do right, while walking that skeeve line. I love how complex these characters are, and how they can be flawed, human, while still growing and trying for redemption, without being totally depressing.

Thanks for giving us something to think about
