now we have a thread about ADVENTURE TIME! mathematical!

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!

Not fully AT-related, but Cartoon Network celebrates its 20th Anniversary and has released a pretty cool poster with AT characters among many others: http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m71zypuW4R1rqyzc2o1_1280.jpg

where to buy

think all the seasons are up on itunes

damn. I love when they take us back to the mushroom war. hope they're able to preserve a lot of the mystery that surrounds it over the course of several more seasons.

anyone? omg, that last moment with the bear...

i'm a few episodes behind bc xfinity stopped streaming the new ones online and it's impossible to record only new eps of adventure time on my dvr

i am like two seasons behind :( goddamnit put that crap on netflix, CN

What a cool season finale! I'm glad the new season starts in like a month. I wonder if it'll be some kind of Quantum Leap / Sliders thing, with Finns and Jakes in alternate universes or time periods fighting different incarnations of the Lich in each one.

What a cool season finale! I'm glad the new season starts in like a month.

I didn't know that was the season finale. In light of that news, I'm a little disappointed if the new season starts that soon. That's the kind of ending that I wouldn't mind sitting around wondering about.

If you guys were my 21yo brother who loves this show would you rather your xmas gift be Jake the dog with bendy arms or Jake and Finn pillows?

I kind of love the bendy Jake but pillows are more useful.

The pillows are great. Plus, 21-year-olds sometimes don't realize they need couch pillows. Could be a good first step towards domesticity.

pillows all the way. good finds, both, though.

Thanks guys. I think I've come around to the pillows too, gonna buy them next payday $$

anyone watching bravest warriors

yes. it is excellent.

bravest warriors, like adventure time, has a comic book that is really excellent - at least as high quality as the shows themselves i'd say

things like this make me feel like we are approaching the singularity.

ok, i lol'd at that, hard, guiltily

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

“Bee and Puppycat” follows Bee, ever the reluctant hero, who becomes entangled in the adventures of a puppy (…or is he a cat?) as they travel between reality and the void of Fishbowl Space.

Created by Natasha Allegri, character designer and storyboard artist for Adventure Time. We can neither confirm nor deny the autobiographical nature of Bee & Puppycat.

Coming soon to Cartoon Hangover

I just saw the "I Remember You" episode. Wow, really sad. Reminded me of a West Wing episode where Allison Janney has to go home and confront her father dying of Alzheimers, but you know, an Adventure Time version. Also they're developing a backstory for this universe now? Goddamn.

They had a basic backstory laid out on whiteboards or something in the writer's room, but they're always adding to it. That episode floored me too.

I went to bed with a heavy heart thinking about that story. Damn you, Adventure Time, for bringing out my inner demons with respect to mental illness!

yesterday's ep was next level

I watched Seasons 1-2 all at once in 2011 and was urged to catch up and holy hell this show is fast approaching all-time status. The episode with the Lich and dimensional travel and the alternate universes was really, really special.

I don't watch a lot of kid-oriented shows but something I love about this is the lack of empathy on the part of the young characters toward the Ice King, they call him old and wrinkled with such regularity and have so little tolerance for his paranoia and mental anguish. That "I remember you" ep in particular was such genius, reminded me of the childhood eye-roll feeling I had toward my own parents and their "problems". Ice King's workout bench + talk of his "pecs" is exactly like That One Uncle.

(Also I wish my brother would let his kids watch this show)

I've said this elsewhere but there is a ton of YA animation right now that I find fantastic (Adventure Time, Gumball, Regular Show, Young Justice (RIP), Green Lantern (RIP))

the adventure time + bravest warriors comics are really high quality too.

can't wait until the end of March so I can catch up on this series properly through Netflix

I've just started series 5, what I really like about Adventure Time is its always consistently brilliant. That and I have a thing for lumpy space princess, oh my glob you guys!
