NTA but the threads gave me nostalgia for early Adventure Time. I went back to hear some of the songs so I could learn them (guitar) and while I know the humour can be described as lolsorandom I found some aspects really charming. I still hold the pilot dear to my heart.
is it ok to consider the first few season their own canon with the latter seasons as kinda optional add-ons? I already do that with stuff like Star Wars and other shit I liked that got worse. Problem is where do you think the line should be drawn?
Mortal Recoil was a good enough ending for the show. Things like Bubbline and Flame Princess were introduced in season 3, so if you don’t like those things I suggest you cut the show off at season 2.
I'm kind of a canon snob, so whether I like it or not I admit that everything that happens in the show still happens. I can't help it. It should be more widely known that a lot of the jumping back and forth was due to a case of too many cooks, though. That's why there were so many instances of something changing and then being brought back to status quo by someone else. So it's more like an awareness. To be honest, I haven't rewatched the show in a long time and I never finished it (fell off around s6/7) so I can't decide on a "point" for you. I also admit I do like some of the LORE stuff, but miss the simpler times too. I'm pretty torn.
A great point to end the show is definitely after the Lich trilogy at the end of S4 beginning of S5. S3 and 4 have some of the best episodes of the whole series.

This for me. As far as I'm concerned pic related was how the series ended with optional DLC. Just pick and choose the stuff you don't like.
This, it fails both as an in-universe story and as a parallel to real life relationships. "Making you mad gives me wet dreams" is a fricking bizarre premise.
The salt in the wound for me is always CB getting a permanent flame shield immediately. All of Finn and FP's relationship stuff was built around their different cultures, how different their bodies were, how getting close to her literally hurt him and the effect that was having on him.
But none of it mattered because there was a cartoon plot solve as soon as someone else needed it, as soon as it became a way to hurt Finn instead of support him.
The show as a whole is fine, and the later miniseries were great. I'd honestly go so far as to say that the only real weak point is the moronic relationship drama episodes.
I don't know why the writers for both AT and Regular Show decided to give their MCs perfect partners in Phoebe and CJ just to split them in the most annoying ways.

There's your answer
see me?
I WAS LISTENIN
Still can’t believe that he became a literal man baby in one of his dreams.
Sometimes I forget why I even liked this show back then

So this is why Finncels self-insert as Finn?
The absolute state of finn selfinserters.
You just know this was some beta writer's fetish.

How much of Adventure Time would've been different if Finn found out how to jack off?
This was the dumbest possible way for Finn to break up with FP

>Phoebe
Who?
Flame Princess, her name is Phoebe
I honestly dont get why this episode got so many people seething.

I don't think it could have been written worse if it tried, the drama got more artificial as the episode dragged on.
homosexual fricking owl.
What's going on here? Is Flame Princess giving Finn a rimjob?
He's having a pg-13 friendly depiction of a sex dream
Could this episode have been done well, or was it doomed from the start?
both somehow
Pissing off your fans isnt what I call "done well".
Would you?
