Sorry I haven't updated DA for a while, the site is still wigging out for me a lot!
I caught up with some Adventure Time recently, as I've been hearing good things...
I stopped watching it regularly about a year ago when the show (in my opinion) was losing direction and the quality of episodes was quite patchy (for every great episode, there would be one with a cool idea that was either too big or too small to fit the 11-minute timeslot, then there'd be another episode that felt really rushed and confused). Some episodes just felt like the writers were throwing 'random' humour around to cover up plot-holes or to make up the running time.
So I sat down to watch most of season 4 and the start of season 5, and I must say that I've been won over, the plots seem to be less 'random' and more satisfying than before, developing pre-existing characters and having a more solid tone throughout. The tone of the show overall has gotten a good bit darker, I personally like the way it's handled since it doesn't feel like pandering (more that the adventures are just getting bigger and more structured) but it's not gonna be for everyone - if you watched the show mainly for the offbeat humour, it's still there, just it's a bit less... 'random'.
I thought the season 5 opener "Finn the Human/Jake the Dog" was a considerable risk because it was so different from the rest of the series, and one that really paid off!
(I am going to try drawing some art of the alternate world in this episode)

It's an awesome series
by FAR the best written non-action, kid oriented series in the history of American animation
try to prove me wrong!
and speaking of which, best thing to ever be posted on this site

NEEDS to become a meme!
It's very true, though nostalgia started way before the 50's - look up a phenomenon called "the gay Nineties" about the 1890's and you'll see what I mean
Heck, even the ancient Greeks were complaining about kids these days.
It's on the VERY far end of zany, even further that the Brave and the Bold was
speaking of action shows, I recently got into The Hub's Kaijudo
I originally avoided it like the plague, seeing as it's based of the Japanese card game Duel Masters
I however gave it a chance out of curiosity and boredom, and was pleasantly surprised
It's superior to the Duel Masters anime (which was really just a poor-man's Yu-Gi-Oh). I mean, it still feels like a cross between Yu-Gi-Oh and Digimon (with bits of Pokemon, Naruto, and Harry Potter), but it's pretty well written, and most notably of all, it completely avoids blatant advertising. Despite it being based on a card game made in Japan and distributed by Hasbro, no card games or even cards appear throughout the entirety of the series.
Instead, the characters cast spells, summon monster, and wield artifacts based on the cards
Also, they managed to handle the subjects of racism and racial identity in a surprisingly realistic manner, without hammering it in, or coming off as preachy
Also, they somehow managed to smuggle in a tentacle rape joke
And the "kids these days" angle is as old as time itself

also, an even more accurate depiction

without a doubt THE best thing Cartoon Network has ever created, and I say this as someone who has pretty much seen their entire catalog (was finally able to hunt down some of their most obscure stuff, so I've officially seen it all!)
It has everything a good show should in my opinion. Good balance of the funny and serious, a good handling of continuity, and a well developed universe and characters.
