The Venture Bros. has been one of our favorite Adult Swim series for almost 15 years, but the wait between seasons seems almost infinite. However, if a new bumper from Adult Swim is to be believed, we can start counting down the days.

Via io9, an Adult Swim viewer named Kiki Canon managed to record and post the following video.

We’re not gonna lie. It’s extremely depressing to be reminded that 543 days have passed since the sixth season finale of The Venture Bros. aired. The good news is that Adult Swim has once again confirmed that the series is still in production. But it also said that season 7 is 422 days away?! That would put the new season premiere some time in late 2018! Although if we know Adult Swim, we can easily see that getting pushed back to 2019; which would be almost three years between seasons.

The worst part is that Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer really left us hanging in the sixth season with the Monarch’s storyline. Throughout the season, the Monarch figured out a way to reclaim his rights to menace Doctor Venture by eliminating everyone above him in the Guild of Calamitous Intent while disguised as a superhero. As the Blue Morpho, Monarch inadvertently uncovered his father’s ties to the original Doctor Venture (which he seemingly ignored) and made a mortal enemy out of his wife, Doctor Mrs. The Monarch. That story didn’t give us the closure that we wanted. But it did give us a hilarious Saw parody and a guest appearance by the great Clancy Brown.

In the past, Publick and Hammer have released special episodes between seasons to make the wait more bearable. That may be in the cards again, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
