Season 1: 2004
A recurring theme in the first season of The Venture Bros. was a series of dreams Dr. Venture would have where one fetus (with facial hair like himself) would attack another fetus (also with hair) in the womb. This began in the pilot episode before the creators knew where it would eventually lead them. The dreams were explained in the season finale, "Return to Spider-Skull Island". Another recurring theme was the issue of cloning, leading fans of the show to believe that the Venture boys were clones of Dr. Venture and Brock Samson. The actual reasons were eventually explained in the season two premiere, "Powerless in the Face of Death".
