Side Quests? No. Finn and Jake having adventures is peak Adventure Time. This, not the faux le deep faux philosophy, or millennial job market metaphor, is what made AT great. Just a boy having adventures with his best friend in a magic land.

I hope they don't do a rugpull with this. If the series is as good as the trailer implies it can be something great.

I will admit, I actually kind of like when the series started branching out. It can definitely get heavy-handed at times, but it also lead to some of the most interesting stories and best character moments. I think YouTube is also making me appreciate a lot of it more as someone putting it all together does quite a bit to help see the vision on some of the plotlines.

Show aimed for the sun, and didn't always make it. I still appreciate the effort though and wish future creations played to its more interesting plots rather than get caught up in Bubbline.

In saying this, I kind of hope there is a bit more to this series then just basic adventures.

I know it's horrible to think about but imagine the state of animation when Jeets start to flood into animation in mass.

Sir, we are already getting an I Eat Poop movie from Ryan Reynolds, I don't think Jeets would change much.
 
Known has been Rebeca sugar makes a video bragging about how brave she was for Making Garnet two lesbians.


She talks about how she was inspired by her boyfriend, but you will notice how her eyes brighten at the idea of being seen as stunning and brave for doing a lesbian cartoon, and getting back pats for doing this in a children’s cartoon.

Yet, notice there is zero mention or concern about making something that kids will enjoy. No, she is just proud for being considered progressive. Shows you were her priorities laid.

An idea taken form DBZ Buu saga, which isn't even original.

She just take the best part about fusions and shat on them.
I prefer when Garnet was Garnet. The crap she pissed after Jailbreak is ridiculous, even for a proto-woke cartoon show.

Is Adventure Time worth starting nowadays? Youtube keeps feeding me random clips and I've been enjoying what little I've watched.

Yes, but do be aware you are in for a ride.

Seasons 1+2 will mostly be basic adventures.

Season 3+4 follow up nicely but lean a little harder into lore and shipping content - Ice King will be redefined these seasons. These are usually considered the best seasons.

Seasons 5+6 are typically where people dropped off as it gets very art-house and lore centric. Hindsight has been a bit kinder to these seasons, but they can feel like a slog at times, especially episodes that depart from any of the main cast. They are a bit infuriating/depressing, but worth going through in the long run as a lot of the stories really do tie up later.

Season 7 is return to basics. People didn't like season 6 as that was the peak of the show's pseudo-philosophy phase, so season 7 ropes things back more in line with seasons 3+4. Still has story, but not nearly as weird and try-hard about it.

Seasons 7.5 + 8 + 9 are the most underrated seasons. You can tell the boot of CN was finally off the show's neck and they were able to tell coherent narratives that have their own mini-series to streamline things. Some of the show's best content comes as a result of this, a perfect small viewing of a row of episodes dedicated towards fleshing out a character. A lot of good stories for Marceline, Ice King and Finn come from these seasons.

Season 10 is the rushed but still decent final season. You can tell they had more story and ideas then the time allowed, but they still produced a decent, if somewhat unsatisfying end.

Adventure Time Distant Lands - perfectly round out the original series and feels like a proper end in some regard

Fionna & Cake - Good when the original AT cast are present, otherwise it is bland Millennial LGBT coffee drama.

yeah I def enjoyed wandering in and out as the first few years firmed up, mostly catching it on in-demand on cable, but oddly enough I _did_ happen to catch the holiday tapes episode live as it debuted
I'm glad I caught that before I could hear about it
you don't expect a Christmas special in this setting, much less the big reveal that Ice King wore glasses

Respect for you man for sticking all way trough the end. I do love the heart of the show Finn, and Jake, and when it is good it’s great.

But I do admit a lot of the show at its worst was off putting for me. Huntress Wizard and Finn …was certainly a choice. They tried to sell her hard on Fionna and Cake, but I doubt she was anyone’s top choice. The whole Marceline and Bubblegum while sidelining Finn, the creators obviously getting bored of Finn and Jake the obvious milenialism like : Fiona and cake : the lame Finn and Jake reincarnations, and the thing that annoyed me the most was the faux le deep philosophy episodes. So pretentious and boring.

There is a lot of annoying stuff, but I will admit there’s also a lot of gold too in there. When this show is good it’s really good. Finn legit is one of the best kid heroes in western animation. A kind and brave soul.

Kudos to you for being a true fan and sticking to the end,

I've started watching Adventure Time and I'm like halfway through the first season. Marceline squatting in Finn and Jake's house is a pretty funny way to introduce her.
 
Someone on Facebook leaked the full special for Paw Patrol: Everest and the big Chill, and I managed to download this mp4 of the entire special. I swear first Avatar then TADC and now even Paw Patrol is getting their stuff leak. Granted this has been out for a few days now but still.

I know gameoverse has its own thread but I finally got around to watching it. Not bad not all that good better than glitchs other work like knights of Guinevere at least. Then scene with the light guns has a slight bit of member berries to them. "Hey member how light guns and arcades were?" Gag me, nostalgia for things like that don't sway me never did.


That and the plot being eerily close to reboot where the characters save game worlds from getting "deleted " when the game heroes win basically borders on being a ripoff of how sectors in reboot got nullified.


Maybe I'm just to cynical and jaded to be over joyed by anything anymore but gameoverse was alright.


And ill say this, we have come a long way from when animated pilots would come and go be flavors of the month for like a week or two then become nothing but memories if they didn't get picked up by a major network like Constant Payne or The Modifyers.

Was The Modifyers actually remembered by people outside of the porn parody?
