Subject: Why is Adventure Time so popular among adults?

No thought required, just spawn and GOOOOOOOOOOO

It has some serious subtones that only adults would pick up on.

I absolutely love adventure time, more than 90s cartoons.

Regular Show is better. *Death Bear*


I would argue that adults would actually find Regular Show a much better cartoon to watch. So much of it derives from 80's culture!


This

"I call this the Mississippi Queen!"

me "what like that one Jim-"

>song plays

awwwwww yeeeeaaaahhhh

but also because people bugged me to watch it since it had a bluejay, and I -blam!- love Mordecai

I disagree with the former but with the latter completely.

Why you edit, -blam!-.

Same reason My Little Pony is so popular among adults I guess?

Don't you compare adventure time to MLP. MLP isn't marketed at adults/ non-girls.

The way i see it, Adventure time is a less adult version of family guy. It's super random, has a lot of adult themes, but you don't need to know anything about current affairs or politics to get the jokes.

I watched Adventure Time once and thought it sucked, so I can see why you guys like it.

Only the unloved and unnatural hate.

I have a skype! Feel free to add me if you took the time to look in here xD cody.dwight.morgan

It's a funny art style and some pretty nice adult humor.

Today, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we are the imagination of our selves.

Its pretty damn funny, quite witty, and well written. And like others said, being in the right "mindset" makes it even more enjoyable hehe.

Astral beast cometh

one of the best scenes?

It's clever and has a lot of adult humor hidden in it.

I agree,but it's more than just awful it's stupid because for example an island named oouu? Only two humans exist (Finn and Susan), some sh%#y language they speak like oh my glob?and thousands of areas named with sh%#y names also like the cloud kingdom,who in the world would live on that nonhuman place.

The answer is turbo nerds and freaks (no offense)


The world ended in a nuclear war hundreds of thousands of years ago. everyone in the land of Oouu are mutants.

It helps to know what you are actually talking about before you complain about it.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Stereotyping a group of people because of their preferences. I see.

I do wonder, what is it like being a bigot?

Except AT is pure satire and doesn't use magical rainbow ponies as characters.

This video gives a good description of why it's popular among adults.
That was a really interesting video. After watching more of it, I can say I enjoy it. Most of all because of the humor. It's also just plain weird...

Do not invite me to your private group. I will not join.

Adventure Time is like many other kids shows that exist right now. They are target to a younger audience. However the fact is that all you need is simple jokes and flashy colors to keep the attention of kids. This doesn't take much effort to make and market so theres plenty of room left over to find something else to do with it. So they design the shows undertone to work for adults.

Adventure time has some very dark under tones to it that i'm sure kids don't understand. Along with simple cartoon humor, violence and a story to follow. Making it a great show all together, for just about all audiences to watch and enjoy.

Regular Show, My Little Pony, and many others have also thrown themselves into this category.

The colors, Bender's voice, the story, and it's pretty funny as well.
