3. whenever we flip past her daily natalie hallaway memorial show
one of us imitates that voice and makes a joke about her showing everyone her balls.

"in the next segment i'll show my balls to the aruban authorities and get dr. phil's insight on why my balls are so big."

it's fun, you should try it.

4. Dr. Girlfriend, newscaster
Every time I hear her all I can think to do is look around for The Monarch.

5. "Sweetie, isn't that the guy from Depeche Mode?"
The Monarch: Oh, no way! Where? Holy crap, he's with a girl!
Dr. Girlfriend: Oh yeah, that guy is totally straight. I saw a whole thing about him on the VH1.
The Monarch: But he's the guy from Depeche Mode. It's impossible.
Dr. Girlfriend: Straight.
The Monarch: Come on! He's in Depeche Mode!

8. some favorite quotes -
Edited on Tue Dec-13-05 02:31 PM by BigMcLargehuge


The Monarch: (in Dr. Venture's laboratory) Here I am in the heart of the lion's den and I don't even care!
(indicating a machine)
The Monarch: I don't even feel like taking a whizz on this! I used to DREAM about taking a whizz on this!

Brock Samson: Something big is going down, this place is crawling with Strangers.
Hank Venture: Well, you can't expect to know everybody!
Brock Samson: No, Hank... Strangers are undercover Guild operatives.
Dean Venture: We gotta warn Pop!
Brock Samson: No, Dean. This is guild business, your father isn't in any harm. Guild works clean, professional, and surgical. In a way, they're the only organization I still respect.
Hank Venture: (dramatically) And they kill clean! Don't let dames get in the way!
Brock Samson: (turning to Hank) Honestly, Hank, where do you pick that stuff up? I never see you read!
Dean Venture: It's weird, right?
Brock Samson: It's like he channels dead crazy people!
Hank Venture: (worried) Do you think it's a cry for help?

the Monarch has Brock Sampson right where he wants him)
The Monarch: Release the butterflies.
(Dead butterflies fall on Brock)
The Monarch: Okay, whose job was it to feed the butterflies?

Dr. Venture: Oh come on! You're gonna kill me because I had fake sex on graph paper with a girl who barely spoke to you in real life?

Dr. Girlfriend: Killing your arch-enemy on Christmas Eve - that's a gift for me?
The Monarch: Well, I got you some stocking-stuffers too...

And my all time favorite quote ever from The Venture Brothers

Brock Samson: Don't you have nothing else to do but harp on Dr. Venture? Why haven't you tried the World Domination thing, you afraid of the big leagues?
The Monarch: Please. How stupid do I look to you? World Domination. I'll leave that to the religious nuts or the Republicans, thank you.

6. You know, I'm learning to enjoy her show.
For the complete and total parody that it is, of course.

By the time I see her, it's midnight after the Keith rerun and I've had a beer or three by then. Once in a while, (maybe once every 2 weeks), it's fun to sit and take in some Rita. It's like a contest at our house:
How many hilarious ad-libs can we come up with in her voice
How many times does she say "and" per segment (this may involve shot-drinking at some point down the road)
How long can we stand the whole mess until we feel a little part of ourselves die (that's the hardest one).

And last night, I know it was a serious subject, but something about the teaser Rita Cosby, Live at San Quentin inspired a slew of fun jokes including a few bars of "Boy Named Sue" in our best Rita voices.

I'm guessing I'm alone on this one though.

9. The voice is one thing...
But I can't get past the huge gulps of air she takes in during her run-on sentences,like she's trying to horde all the oxygen for herself. And whats with the way she leans ways back while speaking.

She has the weirdest countenance i have ever seen on TV.
