I am very jealous of back-to-back Lemongrab avatar posts and wish for something better than MSPaint.

Your wish is my command.

Is it a new episode tonight? I can't imagine it would be.

JethroMcB: Jan 23, 2004; Dude, calm down. It's not a ghost, it's just music. You can't touch music.

But music can touch you.

I believe it's a repeat of the party episode from a few weeks ago, followed by the Regular Show Halloween special.

All candy kingdom characters deserve some love.

Thanks for the heads up, I'm personally buzzing with excitement because I will be able to immediately upload my youtube cover versions of the 2-3 Marceline songs they inevitably cram into this episode.

Hey, come on now, just because some fans can be ridiculous... I think one of the fun things about the show is the cute songs. And Marceline has a pretty voice. What's wrong with that?

Some goons are just bitter and jaded. It's best to ignore those ones.

Yeah, I don't really see the problem since nobody's making you watch the fan videos or whatever. It's not like they can upload the original and have it stay up there for very long.

The real ghost coming out of nowhere in the haunted house episode unsettled me. The scene that Finn vaults away. Just.... blergh.

I liked both of the Halloween episodes, though. Little things like Jake stretching the zombie infection, and Finn just breaking through a wall, remind me that this show does exactly what you yell at other shows for not doing.

Also, did anyone else catch the Walking Dead reference in this episode? Or am I the only one who caught "TS-19.

Using Jake as an oar is pretty funny.

That was surprisingly intense when Jake decided to poke that pool toy.

And those terrifying black smog monsters with teeth!

Except when he was a clamhead, speaking of which...

Would some kind heroic-hearted person please make a gif of the clamhead opening and closing? Preferably avatar sized, please?

Of course it was, she was a dog. Jake got his powers from a magic mud puddle, not any kind of weird magic monster/dog hybrid origin.

The Triumphant: Sep 2, 2011; Yeah, I've seen Robocop. Bitches, leave.

That was awesome, I love Susan.

I do wonder why Jake counts "trying to eat Peppermint Butler" as somehow an evil act when I'm pretty sure it would make the world a less horrifying place.

Seems like Jake looks for reasons to dislike people some times. See: Marceline

That's certainly what it sounded like. Unless it was "Balzacs!!!", perhaps?

At some point they should just move Adventure Time and Regular show to the Adult Swim block. They could go a little edgier and get away from those jarring tween-targeted commercials that bookend the episodes.

# ? Nov 8, 2011 16:53

Brass Bucket: Sep 26, 2006; snap snap snap

It wouldn't be half as funny on Adult Swim. A lot of the humor stems from the creative ways they slip adult jokes into a kids' show.

# ? Nov 8, 2011 17:20

a starwar betamax: Sep 17, 2011

Yeah let's turn a wildly popular young children's cartoon that occasionally has witty double entendras into a all adult cuss-filled "edgy" poop fest.

Part of the reason Adventure Time is so great is because it is enjoyable by so many audience groups. Edgy 20 somethings on Something is Awful.com aren't the only viewers of this show. Little kids love it, it's colorful, bright, action-packed. My 3 year old daughter absolutely adores the show, we watch it together every monday.

Thinking that is could somehow be made "better" by disregarding the majority audience segment and catering solely to stoners who think family guy is "way boss bro" is the very definition of not math.

The Triumphant: Sep 2, 2011; Yeah, I've seen Robocop. Bitches, leave.

Yeah, what I love about Adventure Time is the innocent joy of it. I get to relax and just have fun like a kid for 11 minutes-- it's the TV equivalent of eating a whole thing of candy beans, and I'd never want to trade it for something that didn't have that charm and whimsy to it.
