Ken Plume, author of _Go Team Venture!: The Art and Making of The Venture Bros_ ., r[ecently responded to a viral Tweet asking the Internet to name their favorite shows that were cancelled](https://twitter.com/KenPlume/status/1302384749512720385)[unnecessarily](https://twitter.com/KenPlume/status/1302384749512720385) with _[The Venture Bros.](https://comicbook.com/category/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.](https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/go-team-venture-art-making-venture-bros-book-preview/) > > 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. ---

Yeah, and in their usual style, it’s been near total radio silence ever since. Which is good in a way, in that people forget about the show in the spans between seasons, and probably don’t harass the people making it nearly so much as a more regularly scheduled show. ---

I’ll be happy with one final season and it might be nice to see Hank and Dean grow up and get a win for a change. ---

That’s too bad. I would have liked a bit of closure. I recently watched the complete series and was surprised by just how much some of the characters actually changed over the years. But I had also forgotten much of what happened because the show was produced so slowly. I wish the creators good fortune in their future endeavors. ---

I’m sorry to hear this, too. It would be classy of Adult Swim to at least greenlight a ‘wrap-up’ hour of the show. Surely it would get enough viewers to justify the cost.
