now we have a thread about ADVENTURE TIME! mathematical!

I've been watching through the entire series from the start. Considering that season six was the point I dropped off (at least watching it regularly) the first time, I'm a bit surprised at how much I've enjoyed it now. There's a lot of experimentation and expansion of Ooo lore, though it does drift off a bit too much from the show's core; there isn't very much, you know, adventure time with Finn and Jake (they even joke about it on one episode). I don't think I even understood the ending/resolution to at least three or four specific episodes. S7/8 have struck a better balance overall.

My most recent episode was the one where Tree Trunks is revealed to have alien hybrid offspring. I wonder if that painter who believes he lost his virginity to aliens was the inspiration for that one.

Forgive the thread spam, but I wanted to note that Adventure Time: Distant Lands is nominated in the 2020 ILX TV poll:

ILX's Best Television of 2020 Poll / VOTING AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD / Voting Ends After January 29, 2021

If you like this show and you'd like to see it have a good showing in the poll (running in February) all you need to do is submit a ballot including it and your other favorites (3 minimum, 25 maximum, ranked by your favorite to least favorite) to forksclovetofu at gmail. It'll take five minutes; get to it!

RIP Tree Trunks :(

Polly Lou Livingston, The voice of Tree Trunks on Adventure Time, passed away recently. She had a wonderful and unmistakeable voice and was always a joy to have in recording sessions. Polly Lou really liked playing TT and she'll be sorely missed. pic.twitter.com/0rUql0gKFP
