This cosmic dance of bursting decadence and withheld permissions twists all our arms collectively, but, if sweetness can win, and it can, then I'll still be here tomorrow to high-five you yesterday my friend.

Peace.

Great show. I especially love the dialog.

I was a little confused when it was first aired as to whether or not it was supposed to be a kid show or an Adult Swim show.

Also, John DiMaggio is awesome.

I've only watched small fragments of it, but it looks just as controversial as shows in the past that have been viewed as controversial (Ren & Stimpy, Invade Zim, etc...). Definitely need to actually focus on it one day.

Same here, but only because I seldom watch TV. I absolutely love what I've seen of it, though.

Ah yes, one of the acidic shows Cartoon Network has ever presented. It's not "Ren and Stimpy" weird, but how else can they think of these crazy ideas? :rolleyes:

I don't understand the use of "else" in this post.

But I do love me some Adventure Time.

Ehhhhhhhh... I've tried watching Adventure Time, but for me it just seems too much like Aqua Teen Lite. I'd rather go for the gusto.

Adventure Time has a pH of less than 7?
"Now, from Nature we obtain abundant information about ourselves, and precious little about others. About the woman you clasp in your arms, can you say with certainty that she does not feign pleasure? About the woman you mistreat, are you quite sure that from abuse she does not derive some obscure and lascivious satisfaction? Let us confine ourselves to simple evidence: through thoughtfulness, gentleness, concern for the feelings of others we saddle our own pleasure with restrictions, and make this sacrifice to obtain a doubtful result." -The Divine Marquis

The combination of that gif and your avatar is distinctly unsettling.

The gender swap episode was leaked early onto YouTube. It was bound to happen.

I have a friend who's spoke highly of it for quite some time now; and indeed what I have read about it on Wikipedia has intrigued me quite a bit. I would watch it if I had Cartoon Network as part of my cable service, but sadly that won't happen for a while.

I barely watch anything on TV and no longer have cable, but like Adult Swim, Cartoon Network's website has new episodes up the week after they air.

There's been a few milestones in my appreciation for this show.

Ricardio and the Demon Cat had me acknowledge that the show was good at inserting cameos, without it dominating the character. On their own terms, they're still fun to watch (the Demon cat is my favorite antagonist of the series.)

Fionna & Cake was a riot, and attached with end that made complete sense to me (and just a bit off-pitting when contrasted with the end to "Thank You".)


But most endearing of all was Simon & Marcy, for which I had an immaculate set up.

I only just started watching AT these past two weeks, and besides the popularity, I was completely dark as to what went on in it in advance, for any of the episodes.

In addition, I had been by coincidence on/off marathoning
SPOILER: Show
Cheers.



Suffice to say, when Simon posed behind that broken TV set and said
SPOILER: Show
"Norm"
, there was much rejoicing. What came several minutes after that took AT from being just a good show in my eyes, to a moment in television I shall never forget.


Damn though if I didn't die a little inside with realization that came with little Marcy saying "What is this?"
