The Creative Process of Venture Brothers

Fans of Venture Brothers will know the feeling that there's this kind of amazing tension that drives the show between kind of planning and discovery. And you'll have the whole seasons or specific episodes that are kind of these amazingly intricate clockwork plots with these insane payoffs. But then there's also this element of pure discovery of something that was a toss off joke or somebody who happened to be a background character in one scene having to become a main character three seasons later.
