Subject: Why is Adventure Time so popular among adults?

“Dear humanity, we regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the corps just blew up our raggedy ass fleet!” -Sgt. Johnson

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Why? Because it's algebraic!

On a more serious note, it's pretty much what some other folks said. It's funny, but also has its own dark/sad side to it that is also wonderful. They also have some pretty great voice actors, too. You should go bite his morphing yellow ass.

It's a step in the right direction for cartoons on CN. I like it because it looks like CN is finally going back to their roots with complete random/dark humor.

Alt account #4 because i can!

because it retains the edgyness that we grew up with.

Because it is fantastic! On the surface it is just comedic, however, there is actually quite a bit of story and character development that happens, even if you don't realize it at first.

But don't take my word for it, watch a few episodes and come to your own conclusion. This link will take you to all the current episodes. Watch a few and tell us what you think.
You know what... I will. I'll post what I think.

Why do adults like any cartoons?

Because they are good. Simple as that.

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded

I don't get the hype. It just kinda bores me.

I apologize in advance for all the crappy jokes I make.

This should be interesting.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

It's softcore anime, so that's why grown-men and nerds watch it. Surprised?

  • 11.29.2012 7:54 PM PDT

It is a great show.

I actually read an article just about this. It mostly deals with nostalgia. I would look it up, but I'll let you do that.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

ne'er seen it

  • 11.29.2012 8:23 PM PDT

Yay yuh!!!!!

I just like it. Not so much the jokes but how the characters act with each other and stuff. It is much different from an average cartoon.

It has a strong fantasy appeal with an interesting story and world around it.

  • 11.29.2012 8:28 PM PDT

From the very little I've watch so far, I can see why it would be appealing to some adults. I had a giggle at some of the humor which kind of reminds me of early Simpsons, in a way that it's funny to adults for a completely different reason it's funny to kids. As for canon, I didn't get much from the little I saw, but according to others, it's pretty rich in it's own universe.

It's funny

Most episodes are very well written

The show as a whole is very well written

It's got some mature jokes that some older people might find funny

I dunno I just like it because it's funny, well written, and fun.

To understand the overall story, you have to watch most of the episodes. For example, the episodes "Holly Jolly Secrets Part 1" & 2 as well as "I Remember You" give a lot of insight to some of the characters backgrounds and part of the world's history. However, you won't understand the full depth of what the episode tells unless you watch the previous episodes concerning those characters.

Those are some pretty good episodes, too.

Muffins are just ugly cupcakes

This video gives a good description of why it's popular among adults.
