Adventure Time

COME ALONG *sobbing* WIIIITH ME *sobbing*

panders to your typical internet generation teenagers/hipsters in a pretty transparent way, full of lame, tryhard irony and zaniness, which is a shame 'cause when it knuckles down it's something else, man. some of the most imaginative and unsettling shit i've ever seen and it's airing on cartoon network in 2015.

Imaginative and bold for the vast majority. I can only envy the kids who grow up watching this.

Cute, quirky, and sometimes funny little animated show that kids and kidults (like myself) can enjoy.

I wasn't sold on this at first but it is growing on me. It's silly and sometimes really creepy.

This show can be enjoyable but it can't quite figure out how seriously if at all it wants you to take it. Has a few cute trope inversions, and it's inventive. Not enough for me to want to sit down and watch it.

A notable number of episodes don't really work, but when this hits its stride Adventure Time delivers some wonderful times with a dash of great absurdist humor.

Although the show overstayed it's welcome and often trended to filler, Adventure Time is essential viewing for it's era-defining influence: the flat surreal art style, optimistic and eternally millennial characters, and the offbeat plots that keep continuity.

95 for the first 2 seasons. 67 for the rest.

(S1) This is for children/preteens that are just starting to notice the difference in quality between shows, and want to be elitist about it, but only know popular shows. The humor does a whole lot of hibernating, and sometimes Finn and Marceline turn into annoying teen pop stars, but the animation and creativity is delicious, and Maria Bamford does voice work!

S1: 87 S2:53

Too directionless and humourless for my taste.

Pablum.

Weird, off-beat, colorfull, surreal and surprisingly deep. The quintessential animated children's TV-show of the decade.

found the pilot on metafilter and thought, ""this is the most perfect thing i've ever seen; they'll never make it.""
