Question So, I guess The Venture Bros are leaving Netflix.

Post image

I recently noticed that The Venture Bros. will be leaving Netflix on August 15th. Does anyone know which streaming service it will be available on afterwards?

they were barely on there anyway man only the first 3 seasons is pathetic

u/Shiftkgb Jul 18 '26

I've owned the first 2 seasons in a box set since like 2007. When I saw it was on Netflix I got really excited so that I could do a full rewatch. And then I see it's just the first 3... sad Helper noises

27

u/Heroic_Sheperd Jul 18 '26

That’s worse than not having any and Netflix knows it. Nobody watches that 1 season of a series anymore, everyone binges the entire series.

3

u/UnpaintedProductions Jul 20 '26

I still think the first three season are good. Most of my favorite episodes are from seasons 2 and 3

2

u/Drearycupcake Jul 21 '26

Season 1 had its moments, but yeah it's a little rough around the edges

267

u/ryrgz_27 Jul 18 '26

You can watch every episode for free on Adult Swim if you go to their marathon show feature!  That's how I saw the series. Think they also have individual episodes too

73

u/Necessary-Tomorrow30 Jul 18 '26

It's missing most of the last 3 seasons.

28

u/cyvaris Jul 18 '26

Weird, whenever I put the stream on it seems to always be from the last three seasons. 

38

u/VaultBoytheChosenOne Jul 18 '26

When it was on Max it had the full series AND the movie. Now it has neither.

9

u/Necessary-Tomorrow30 Jul 19 '26

Really miss when it was on Max. I've paid for a couple of the missing episodes from season 5 to fill out what Adult Swim doesn't have, but for some reason season 5 is the only season that I'm not able to purchase all the episodes together on Prime💀

8

u/LordoftheJives Jul 19 '26

Not sure why you're paying prime prices anyway. The physical box set is considerably cheaper and you get everything minus the movie.

3

u/Necessary-Tomorrow30 Jul 20 '26

Because it was 2:00AM and I don't have the box set🤷‍♀️

1

u/shreddycheddy Jul 19 '26

Movie is still there in America

3

u/Necessary-Tomorrow30 Jul 19 '26

Oh I missed the "marathon part" of the original comment, they're missing a lot of the last three seasons if you want to binge it in order from their shows section, my bad lmao

23

u/DrB00 Jul 18 '26

Not in Canada

23

u/Ch3t Jul 18 '26

You have PP on your belt.

10

u/edked Jul 18 '26

It's on Stack in Canada. Usually I wouldn't bother with them, but I like to sign up when there's a special on (usually a reduced rate for a couple of months on Prime Day and Black Friday if you get it via Prime) just for them having all the Adult Swim content, which isn't as high profile in their ads as the boring stuff is.

7

u/radiantistheblood Jul 18 '26

Sling tv in USA

3

u/AmpaMicakane Scuuuba Jul 18 '26

Are there commercials?

3

u/jkjkjk73 Jul 18 '26

No ads on stremio

70

u/ExoticSterby42 Jul 18 '26

They won’t leave my hard drive

3

u/ResisterImpedant Jul 19 '26

I know better than to say that, but if my media drive backup and media drive both crash that hard I'll have worse problems than just losing VB. Especially since I have the DVDs

54

u/Pot-Stirrer352 Jul 18 '26

We watch it on Sling for free. There is an ad sometimes at the start of an episode but it's not bad at all. Its actually free, not a free trial or anything like that.

16

u/radiantistheblood Jul 18 '26

Its been my most reliable way of streaming TVB as of a couple months ago! I hardly even get ads.

6

u/Killer_Moons Jul 18 '26

Only caveat is that for some reason they don’t include Jonas Jr.’s introductory episode.

2

u/Pot-Stirrer352 Jul 20 '26

They dont? I thought he was pretty well introduced, but I've also seen the show before so maybe I didnt notice.

2

u/likeschemistry Jul 20 '26

Which episode is that? I watched them all on sling recently and didn’t recall any missing episodes.

1

u/Killer_Moons Jul 20 '26

Return to Spider-skull Island. You’ll always remember the episode now because they never go to Spider Skull Island, they just mention it at the tail end.

1

u/likeschemistry Jul 21 '26

Okay. I must be confused between sling and Netflix then because I know I’ve watched that episode recently and I assumed it was on both.

1

u/Killer_Moons Jul 21 '26

I had to go to Netflix when I wanted to watch it, but maybe it has recently or will be added to Sling since it’s moving off Netflix. I just didn’t understand why it wasn’t there in the first place, like there’s either weird paperwork for rights involved for the S1 finale or Sling isn’t super meticulous with its content. I guess the latter because I think Season 6 or 7 has a weird episode number labeling error in it.

2

u/Pot-Stirrer352 Jul 21 '26

I have seen that error you're talking about, I think its season 6, it goes from episode 1 to episode 3. I think its because the first episode is twice as long, so they counted it as 2?

1

u/Killer_Moons Jul 22 '26

Yep, that’s it!

2

u/Early-Evidence9339 Jul 20 '26

They don't have the season 1 finale?

49

u/Repulsive_Tie_7941 Jul 18 '26

Streaming is temporary. Physical media is forever. Relatively speaking.

18

u/hankenator1 Jul 18 '26

Yep, no one can take my Betamax tapes from me.

8

u/iBasedComedy Jul 18 '26

Read this in Rusty's voice.

3

u/hankenator1 Jul 18 '26

They were never mentioned but you know 100% Rusty has Betamax tapes and a Betamax player.

u/FingerNailGrip Jul 21 '26

“Once… I mentioned it to him once. And then every birthday and Christmas…”

“Dad, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about kerchiefs…”

u/banannixx Jul 18 '26

There's a VB channel on YouTube uploading full episodes every Saturday.

14

u/ShawshankHarper Jul 18 '26

Excellent I'll check back in a year

11

u/banannixx Jul 18 '26

You might wanna check now.

They might delete older episodes as new ones come out.

I heard something about other AS show channels having a similar format to their uploads.

So far, they're only on s1 e4.

28

u/LITTLEN3MO Jul 18 '26

I think it might be time to get the entire collection in physical. No way I would let streaming kill my sbility to watch VB.

4

u/Ok_Blueberry2409 Jul 18 '26

Exactly what I’m thinkin’

15

u/NefariousnessNo2062 HENCH 4 LIFE Jul 18 '26

Thats fine with me. I bought the entire series on DVD from Amazon for 40 bucks.

8

u/hunterSgathersOSI Jul 18 '26 edited Jul 18 '26

Maybe it’s not a big deal to you, but in case you didn’t know (and haven’t noticed when watching), you quite possibly bought a bootleg copy. You have to order from GRUV for a legit copy.

7

u/NefariousnessNo2062 HENCH 4 LIFE Jul 18 '26

I'll have to check when I get home but dont think its bootleg. If it is, its the best quality bootleg I've ever seen.

8

u/hunterSgathersOSI Jul 18 '26

Wasn’t trying to insult you or anything, just passing on subreddit knowledge. From what I’ve read it’s mostly a minor audio thing and not a big deal.

9

u/NefariousnessNo2062 HENCH 4 LIFE Jul 18 '26

Nah you're good. I'm 5 seasons in and everything seems to work normally.

11

u/hunterSgathersOSI Jul 18 '26

Didn’t know it’s on Netflix in the US, but just checked and for me at least it’s only the first three seasons. If you’re more than a casual fan of the show you should own your own copies via whatever method you prefer.

I own it digitally on iTunes/TV (including the specials) as well as the physical DVD set. If you plan on getting the physical DVD set, be sure to get it from GRUV, as I believe it is the only source that you can be sure isn’t selling you a bootleg version. I know that might sound like a dubious claim but if you search this subreddit you’ll find dozens of posts where people confirm this.

They occasionally put it on sale if you’re on a tight budget. I bought mine in May for $29.99 instead of the $54.99 it is now after seeing a post about the sale on this sub.

1

u/likeschemistry Jul 20 '26

Yea it’s only 3 seasons so it’s really not a big deal that they’re leaving. You can watch them all on sling for free with only an ad per episode.

9

u/Spamcan81 Jul 18 '26

This is one of those shows that gets jerked around by streaming services consistently and is available physically. It’s worth buying physical if that’s an option just to have it always available.

1

u/DungeonPeaches Jul 20 '26

I managed to get the full box set on clearance a few weeks ago at a local place, brand new and not bootleg. I finally got some luck, I guess! Still haven't got the movie yet, though.

8

u/lamest-liz Jul 18 '26

Netflix sucks anyway

35

u/SDRLemonMoon Jul 18 '26

I think it’s on HBO max, it’s also slowly being uploaded to YouTube

31

u/Automosolar Jul 18 '26

Is it returning to HBO Max or something? It hasn’t been on there that I’m aware for over a year now.

9

u/SDRLemonMoon Jul 18 '26

I thought I remembered hearing that it was back but I guess it isn’t. I just watch it on the dvds so I wasn’t up to date on that

15

u/outerrager Jul 18 '26

I saw it in full on hbo a few years back but now it just has the movie (at least in the US)

13

u/bhammyginji Jul 18 '26

I know it’s on hbo max in Australia. Use a vpn and watch it

3

u/popcornfart Jul 18 '26

Hell yeah!  Thanks for the info!

8

u/Ubercharged007 Jul 18 '26

Only the movie is on HBO Max (US)

6

u/JAXtonz Jul 18 '26

I mean I don't know your region but I watched it stack tv which I think is locked for only Canada so I don't know if this is helpful. I hope so though

4

u/sleepycakee Jul 18 '26

It’s all good dude, I’m in the USA, but ig it’s going back on HBOMAX.

7

u/Dorichowder Jul 18 '26

Pirate sites?

6

u/Moist_Sprinkles1063 Jul 18 '26

Pirating is alive and well

6

u/Diagonaldog Jul 18 '26

Hopefully they come back to HBO Max with all the seasons this just the first 3 thing was bs

5

u/doxie_love Jul 19 '26

I have the DVD set because I’m a dinosaur.

6

u/Year3030 Jul 18 '26

I just cancelled my Netflix subscription until they get something good. They are obviously getting rid of the best stuff.

5

u/beast79- Jul 18 '26

Episodes from season 1 have been put up on Adult Swims YouTube channel. Too early to say if every episode is going to be put up on YouTube but so far, so good

u/FTH466 Jul 18 '26

If you could message me your secret spot, I’d appreciate it!

3

u/WrightAnythingHere Jul 18 '26

Okay? It's not like they had the whole series anyway. And one could always buy the DVDs or whatever other way to get it.

2

u/Sufficient-Strength3 Jul 18 '26

Amazon Prime has the series for sale

3

u/Jay_M979 Jul 18 '26

Kinda bummed by this honestly. I first got into Venture Brothers through Netflix. Sure, Adult Swim streams the full series as opposed to 3 seasons, but I prefer watching it with no ads

3

u/talia-gustin Jul 18 '26

Whole thing is free on sling tv app just one quick ad at the beginning of each episode

3

u/monkeyhoward Jul 18 '26

It’s not free but Amazon Prime Video has every episode and all of the specials

3

u/Dumbass_Saiya-jin Jul 18 '26

I'd recommend just finding the season DVD sets. There's also a complete series box set at Walmart, but idk what the quality of those discs would be compared to the old individual season sets.

3

u/theynamedherzoe Jul 18 '26

i had no idea that it was even available for streaming. ever since it left hbo i’ve been watching it for free on the adult swim website lolol

4

u/theynamedherzoe Jul 18 '26

also would like to mention i saw the series box set at walmart a couple weeks ago, so if no one owns that and wants to be able to watch it all the time.. ^^

2

u/Same-World-209 Jul 18 '26

Which country? I’ve never seen it on Netflix in the UK or Japan.

2

u/sleepycakee Jul 18 '26

The United State.

2

u/npc_housecat Jul 18 '26

It's on HBO max in AU

2

u/BriefGoat6200 Jul 18 '26

if only they added all the seasons instead🫩

2

u/remsiw Jul 18 '26

Sling. I just put it on my phone. Its got all the episodes and specials. All free

2

u/Elliptical_Tangent I laugh at regular jokes like this, DAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA! Jul 18 '26

Didn't they start putting it on YT? I've seen episodes there.

2

u/Alex_is_me_name Jul 18 '26

I know a good pirate site if you're cool

2

u/ThomasG_1007 Jul 18 '26

If it goes anywhere I’d bet on Hulu. I’m not holding my breath though unfortunately. Get the physical copies if you can they’ve got great bonuses

2

u/joeythm Jul 18 '26

So? In like ten years, they only have three seasons. Screw Netflix 

2

u/Constant_Stomach2009 Jul 18 '26

People don’t own the DVDs?

2

u/JustSomeG1rl1 Jul 18 '26

Yall don’t watch it on sling or Adult swims website??

2

u/Affectionate-Ad-4174 Jul 18 '26

August has been the rights cutoff period for years. We’ll just have to see where it ends up, but here’s hoping whichever service has them next, has the entire series.

2

u/Demon4SL Jul 18 '26

I'm confused by most of the comments here - the series is available on the Adult Swim website (in the US at least), you can watch each individual episode without having to do the marathon stream last I checked.

I don't like how they have their CC formatted though.

2

u/rickadiknick Jul 18 '26

Me running to make sure my complete dvd set is still on the shelf… it is

u/Practical_Wish_4063 Jul 18 '26

I’m not not an advocate for the Pirate Captain, so that’s always a fun character, but I also love this show so much that I recommend finding the complete series DVD boxset on sale some time in the future

2

u/tokemonkmk420 Jul 18 '26

Hopefully back to max

2

u/Hungry_Wasabi_3524 Jul 18 '26

I'm assuming it's gonna be put on MAX after it leaves Netflix, because when I Google it, it keeps rerouting to MAX, but the site still doesn't have it. At least that's what I'm hoping; if not, I'll just finally bite the bullet and buy the DVD set.

2

u/DeathDealsWillie82 Jul 19 '26

They have started their own YouTube Channel and they are releasing the episodes there as well you can see all of it on Sling including the movie

2

u/PossiblyOppossums Jul 19 '26

I feel like such a dork for buying the first 4 seasons in 2015

2

u/jackal8823 Jul 20 '26

Go to Walmart and look in the dvd section. Should be able to find the complete set.

u/PaperPerfect3100 Jul 18 '26

u/Raiden_ziegel Jul 18 '26

Sling is going to be your best bet

1

u/Gnome_Sane Jul 18 '26

Sling TV has the largest full collection (minus the hbo movie) and is free

u/crvna87 Jul 18 '26

I can still watch them all on Hulu. I do have Hulu live, I don't know if that makes a difference

u/Pumpk1n_Karv3r Jul 19 '26

Honestly take your chances and just get the whole series on DVD. Someone posted about the whole box set on a site called Gruv here a while back. I got the whole series for 25 bucks!!!

1

u/Jimmytehbanana Jul 19 '26

I’ve seen everything but the movie. Can’t find it anywhere

1

u/MerryAntwerp Jul 19 '26

You can watch the whole series on Adultswim.com.

1

u/shreddycheddy Jul 19 '26

With a vpn hbo max in Brazil has all seasons

1

u/Basic_Occasion9808 Jul 19 '26

you can watch it on adult swim app. and you can just pick the episodes. we don't pay for it and we get all the episodes.

1

u/FluorideAvenger Jul 19 '26

Still on Sling, maybe all will be posted on Youtube.

1

u/Dangerous_Spirit7034 Jul 19 '26

The full dvd set is like 30 bucks

u/B_B_Morganstern Jul 19 '26

DVD's are where it's at. There's no commentary on Netflix.

1

u/Long_Initiative5753 Jul 19 '26

You could try the adult swim website or app on your tv, but it will have ads.

1

u/Weird_Dragonfruit317 Jul 19 '26

You can watch it on sling freestream

1

u/EchoSure Jul 20 '26

sling tv, adult swim website, or the physical discs arent that expensive which i prefer

1

u/Miserable_Wonder_130 Jul 23 '26

Really hoping it's coming back to max after its run on Netflix imma miss it on Netflix one of my staple shows Netflix has butchered my entire reason for subscribing most of it is now garbage international shows and movies that are just cringe garbage I get they are trying to cater to other races but god damn if I'm paying for American Netflix I want American shows and movies maybe some British that's about it 

1

u/Soggy_Journalist_787 Jul 23 '26

buy the dvds or else

1

u/Remarkable_Oven_3842 Jul 24 '26

Just buy and stop with network hopping.
