Glad to see Sheltie with the best possible avatar for his moniker.

I'm working my way through season 2 to catch up now, and I swear in one episode she took off her helmet and had a different color than when she put it on. It reminded me of Leslie from Zak McCracken and the Alien Mindbenders; if it is indeed a subtle reference, I will be beyond happy.

I believe this episode has finally given us a focus episode for each of Jake's children. That's another check mark on my Adventure Time bucket list, so of course I'm happy about it. Card Wars offers yet another outlet for the show to flex its creative character design muscles, both in the cards and the competitors,

NEPTR's "I'm known to bake pies!" line slayed me.

I couldn't ask for a more perfect post-mortem for the show, even if it's only a post-mortem for the AV Club's coverage. It encapsulates so much of what I love about Adventure Time, but there's even more to love beyond it. Thank you for this.

A shame to see coverage of the show coming to an end, though I feared it was an inevitability after comment rates started to drop. Still, this is the show that finally got me commenting on the AV Club and it's been immensely rewarding to discuss the show with others. Oliver's reviews have likewise been enlightening;

Looks like they accidentally made a better Hitman movie than either of the actual Hitman movies thus far. I even recognize that glass-bottom pool kill from Hitman: Blood Money.

He fell down an elevators shaft… onto a box of bullets.

I remember seeing a riff of an old FMV game that featured an executed serial killer brought back to life by a vampire mad scientist as a lightning-spewing Frankenstein monster. He immediately set out to reclaim the organs that had been taken after his execution by targeting the donor patients. The riffer even

Only when it came to Earth. From what little we saw of her, everything else seemed to be pure business. She wasn't overly infuriated at Peridot's failure of her mission (which involved losing a ship, no less). Her insistence on Earth's eradication is telling that there's more at play than just making way for an

Add another layer onto that, since the Ice President's story was about Lynn the Person and Janet the Fox.

Are you stepping in my cornflakes? Let me tell you about stepping in another man's cornflakes: it's a weird way to eat cornflakes.

Also a good reminder that, despite her hangups with Earth, she's known as the most logic-minded decision maker in the universe for a reason.

At first it kind of bothered me why Homeworld would send these Rubies out on such an important mission if they could barely be trusted to remember how many of them were on a mission. Then it occurred to me that they still have a vested interest in covering up the rebellion on Earth, so sending in a pack of idiots

Do we want to count vampires in this equation? Or just let it ride?

You want to ban the Spirit Morph saga from our school libraries? You're just a bunch of fascists!

"Pun intended?"
"What did I just say?"

One can only hope. Dodging these leaked spoilers is stressful. I suppose I took that this being the end of the event to mean we wouldn't see new episodes for at least a little while.

I'm curious as to what Amethyst's baseball uniform was referencing. I recognized Sapphire and Pearl's but not hers.

Sapphire is a worse outfielder than Lucy Van Pelt.
