Adult Swim tweeted that it is working with McCulloch and co-writer Doc Hammer “to find another way to continue the Venture Bros story.”

HBO Max has been suggested as a possible new home for the series.

Voice actor James Urbaniak added:

So, as it must to all, cancellation has come for The Venture Bros. The pilot aired 17 years ago, which means the show was almost old enough to vote. It was one of the great gifts of my life & career. The fans were, quite simply, the best. Thank you, everybody. Go. Team. Venture! pic.twitter.com/MPMAvWS6Z4
