    I thought it was quite a poor episode. It felt like a crude imitation of Adventure Time by someone who doesn't really "get" it. The humour in particular felt forced and childish. Worth noting that the writers were KC Green, who I think has never written for the show before, and Emily Partridge, who has only written a

    I like them too but I don't think this particular piece of fluff was very good.

    Kinda got a Lennon-McCartney thing going on.

    I always thought Zelda was the primary artistic inspiration for the whole show.

    I really didn't like President Porpoise… I thought it was an unnecessary return to what was a funny one-liner. The story was really simplistic and the humour felt cartoony and forced… it kinda seemed to me like a poor pastiche of Season 1 Adventure Time.

    I think you mean articulate. Sardonyx is articulated.

    Other stuff?

    Ten minutes in it seemed entirely like a detective story.

    Detective stories?

    I'm just quoting the episode mate.
