My bad, didn't think about that as I just read a story online like a week ago about who's voicing him in the new episodes that start next month, so I guess I thought it was common knowledge. Sorry about that, but for what it's worth, that last episode has so much more to offer than just that reveal when you do get

Yeah, I can see what you mean I think. I do think that how alien and cynical they got led me to like "The Comet" as much as I did. The most alien thing up to this point, a being beyond our reality in the form of a comet, offers Finn the chance at a higher plane of existence…and he decides that he'd rather stick with

Just curious, did you watch the Finnale episodes a couple weeks ago? I ask because I had a similar attitude about AT recently but the last installments of season 6 really came together and cemented the themes that the season had seemed to be going for. In fact I kind of feel like "The Comet" brought so many themes and

That's the Tumblr theory I stumbled on. Like I said, fun and interesting theory and I kind of like your explanation better, but at the same time there was a point when Ruby and Sapphire (even if we didn't know their names) was just a theory.

Honestly I feel like Pearl holds herself responsible for her projecting on Connie. That look in that moment of silence after she shouts at Rose says SO much more than someone else telling her what she was doing was wrong. Really I think Pearl realizing her own mistake is exactly in character. She's much more

So among the myriad of things this episode brings or expands on there's an something I'd like to address. After "Rose's Scabbard" I saw a fan theory pop up on the ol' internets theorizing due to a couple factors but one main one being Pearl's stance reenacting her memory with Rose it suggested that Rose Quartz is Gem

I think treating it like that is kind of the point. I read this thing once back before even "Mirror/Ocean Gem", and I'm paraphrasing, that one of the show's running themes is personal imperfections, but not letting them define the person and in fact, seeing the beauty in them. Or to put it another way; "If every pork

Technically I think she's been Harley in a few different video games & such already. As far as characterization I'd blame that more on DC than anybody. Although if anyone's into Batman '66 is this is pretty neat: http://www.newsarama.com/24…

So I've been thinking over the past couple days. In addition to the whole rebirth/reincarnation themes of this season I commented on a couple days ago I thought of another theme and I was curious what other people thought;

Perhaps, but that does make the times when he does all the funnier.

Well that's what I ment, Sweet P himself wouldn't recognize Orgalorg, but The Lich part of him probably would and the lich would probably try to use Org/Gunther's power to help himself reemerge in full from Sweet P

These are among the best, but my personal favorites are The Lich, Finn the Human, and Jake the Dog.

So there are about a billion things I want to talk about but I don't have the brain power left after how many times this show has made my head explode this week. The one thing I want to point out is how this season had such a strong theme tying it all together, Rebirth and reincarnation.
Just off the top of my head

Well he's still there and just like before was crushed into his penguin form by our gravity. I don't think we've seen the last of Orgalorg. I think he's just going to go dormant again until another series of doors opens. (pure speculation on my part but I imagine one of those doors will open once Gunther meets Sweet P)

I get the feeling that doing that whole week of premieres thing isn't exactly the favorite thing of the people actually working on the show. Like there was a big hiatus before they did it for Adventure Time around Thanksgiving only having the one episode about a ghost around Halloween. Then there was another, very

Well that's where I disagree I think. I feel like the show's kind of making the point that alignments aren't always as simple as a 3x3 chart of possibilities. I mean forget FP's growth as character, what about Bubblegum's less than ethical acts that she only does to protect her kingdom and it's citizens. Is that evil

One of the more interesting aspects of the whole "alignments" thing is one of their most direct references in a conversation between Flame King and Finn:

Okay, so even though he was able to get past it for Billy's bucket list I've always thought, since about "King Worm" that Finn's fear of the Ocean is there for a reason and when Martin said he was born on a boat in the middle of the ocean I thought there isn't any way that's a coincidence. So the way I see it is that

Very true. Not only are there basically all of Gunter's past actions but also the fact that his "offspring" was a pink floating eye-laser shooting kitten (who we got to see again tonight and I had just asked myself where that little thing had been during the party/walrus race)

I've been thinking and I honestly don't think something like this needed to be foreshadowed or hinted at. There wasn't any hinting at the nature of Simon before Holly Jolly Secrets either and that plot twist was one of the most enriching developments the show has ever had. I'm not saying this reveal has that emotional
