I hope I never get tired of Finn calling Ice King 'Simon'. It's those little nods to continuity and character development that makes the show so great!

You're not kidding, the opening song sounds uncannily 'similar' to this…

While I don't agree with you, it reminds me of a time one of my friends saw James Brown opening for the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. That was pretty depressing to say the least.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for an inter-kingdom war towards the end of the season. They've dropped too many hints so far for it not to happen:
- Lemongrab revolution/Lemonhope.
- Slime kingdom's warmongering.
- Flame Princess/Ice King battle and destruction of the Ice Kingdom.

It would've been great if, after his plummet, we heard him crash into some garbage cans, followed by a faint 'Ooft, mein kopf!'

Hand-drawn? As soon as I saw that shot I thought it was CG animation.

Game of Thrones is A$AP Rocky. It's clearly pussy-obsessed exploitative trash, but it's so well-produced and delivered with such sly charm that you can't help but love it anyway.
