now we have a thread about ADVENTURE TIME! mathematical!

Jouster, the second season just had a higher number of episodes that didn't work (at least for me, personally) than the first - e.g. "Crystals have Power", "The Other Tarts", "Mystery Train". I'm not suggesting the show is going downhill or anything (not even close!) as there were a lot of fantastic episodes too. Looking forward to S3.

new season starts monday!

last week's episode about marceline was really great.

I know there's a new season and I'm really excited about seeing it but I only just started watching from s1 this last week so I'm not quite there yet -- should I just watch new episodes as they air? does it in anyway matter if I watch them out of order?

nah it's not narrative in any way, there are bits you'll get if you've seen earlier eps (eg marceline's dad eating fries means more if you've seen it came from
the nightosphere) but it's so random anyway you can just roll with it

such a great show, but particularly i was thinking recently how boom boom mountain + city of thieves seem very miyazaki'esque -- really surreal + strange + wonderful

have you seen the silent king? it has a similar weird-world mentality, there's this great part where jake gets in bed and a goose and a lion just walk in and become his pillow and blanket.

xp

i haven't yet. i love the part in city of thieves where he steals the bar of soap from the horse taking a shower. it was so o_O

no money for me? / how about a poem for free!

the eps "thank you" with the snow golem was a high point... of this show and maybe of tv animation period

xxpost is totally mathmatical

I watched "The Creeps" last night and this scene freaked me out:

"Marceline's Closet" had me laughing hard a couple times

last week's episode about marceline was really great.

Assume this refers to "Memory of a Memory". Might be my favorite thing ever made for television.

also hilarious was "beautopia" featuring the return of susan strong, jake is in rare form

^ yeah, this whole episode was great. want to go through each episode by writer/storyboarder to see who's in charge of my favorites. tone and approach vary pretty substantially, and there are a lot of different artist involved. loved tom herpich's work in S2 ("memory of a memory" for instance), but i only noticed his name cuz i was already a fan.

uh, maybe i mean S3, one of those esses

how have i never seen this show??

I dunno man it's like god's gift to the 21st century

I guess if you're not around kids you wouldn't get exposed to it much, it hasn't crossed over into the mainstream like a spongebob or powerpuff girls

my only complaint is that they haven't released full season sets but they are all available on itunes

The glimpse back into pre-apocalyptic times in the Christmas special was pretty chilling.

But yeah. This thing could use a serious boxset. Maybe this year.

poor ice king :(

thx

I was mixing an episode last night, mixing the sounds and effects and the picture all together at the post-house and there was a really long fart sound that I needed to have in there for the story to work, for the jokes to work. And I remember making a call and having a really serious conversation with the network about making sure that this fart can stay in there, and we went back and forth about how juicy it could be. I didn’t want it juicy, So he was like, “Oh, it can be really dry and that’s fine. As long as it’s not over the top. Diarrhetic.” [Laughs.] I was like, ‘Okay, I can work with that.’ Then I ended up doing the sound into the microphone. [Makes long, dry fart sound.] I have a lot of those kinds of conversations.

these guys should make an paper & dice ADVENTURE TIME! rpg

love this show...thought about going as LSP this past halloween

i'm still trying to classify this show: post-modern? it's like a mockery of videogames. except, no, not at all.

it's post-postmodern, where everything is a representation of itself

4th season just started! return of NEPTR!

"goodbye lady"

ok the 4th season premiere ruled.

i wish i could record this on my DVR, but whenever i set it to record new episodes, it just records every episode

i know right! stupid CN, not providing the "new" flag on episodes like every other damn network

what's weird is that i think adult swim does provide that flag??

yes, it does.

this was a goddam great episode. season 4 off to a roaring start. and drowning in babies!
