Adventure Time

So the last episode, "Root Beer Guy," was excellent. I'm finding myself less and less drawn to the antics of Adventure Time, but that episode was high quality stuff. Maybe because it was mostly an adult themed episode, with some issues I can relate with to, that drew me in to the story. I'm definitely not a middle-aged man with a dead-end job capable of ensuing high levels of boredom. Then you have the wife who's feeling more distant from her husband because he can only seemingly find solace in writing a never-ending mystery novel.

I doubt the problem is on Netflix's end.  I get the feeling Cartoon Network deliberately limits how many episodes they can carry because they want people to watch it on their station.  Hulu might have it, but even if they don't I'm sure there are...ways.

I usually prefer not to pirate. Hulu's out of the question as they show ads even when your premium.

It only took two years... But i finally got my gal into Adventure Time!

 

Ive found that it's best to skip straight to season 3 with newcomers. 1 and 2 are great when you get the jib, but as first time watching they need a LOT more work to enjoy fully. Season 3 is where the show peaks and plateaus.

Season 3 is a reasonable place to start.  The storyline picks up significantly in that season, adding depth to the characters, like Ice King and Marceline.  I think of the Lich as a plot mover, but not necessarily the point of the show.

 

I'm still disappointed in Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why Did You Steal Our Garbage?!.  I tried to play some more of it, but I couldn't stand the boredom.

I've basically stopped watching episodes in a season at this point, and once the season is over I see which ones are serious. I know people enjoy the silly episodes but for me the show is amazing when it has episodes focusing on the sad story of the ice king, finn's relationships, marceline and ice king, the lich, etc...

 

the last great episode I remember watching is the ice king one.

That was a great episode

 

Yeah, Jack, there are definitely extremely important episodes in S01 and 2. I reckon once we finish 3 I'll suggest we go back and watch season 2. It's still got some classics and yeah, introduces a few key characters/points.

 

Eg we watched the episode the other day where Susan Strong appears and they help her fight the creatures in the sewer... But Yasmin had no idea who the heck Susan Strong was and thought she was some bizarro-world Fiona-alike.
