- TriviaJeremy Shada was chosen to voice Finn after his older brother Zach, who played the character in the pilot, was unable to reprise his role due to his changing voice.
- Crazy creditsIn every episode, during the opening credits, when we see Jake's portrait with "Jake the Dog" written next to it, Jake winks. This is something a human would do. Similarly, a couple of seconds later, Finn barks and sticks his tongue out in a dog-like fashion, despite "Finn the Human" being displayed next to the picture of his head.
- Alternate versionsEpisodes shown many countries (particularly UK and Australia) have contain many of the more vulgar and sensitive scenes edited out. In fact, some of the more vulgar and violent episodes have never aired in some countries as well. Adventure Time also received censorship in countries like Brazil, Spain, Turkey, Portugal, Philippines, India, Canada and Japan. However, DVDs and some syndicated airings are uncut.
- ConnectionsEdited into The Frollo Show: Frollo Faps to a Firefighters calendar (2011)
Featured review
I first saw Adventure Time on youtube some years ago. Now it's TV show. I loved it when it was a one-shot video. And I love each episode I've seen on Cartoon Network even more.
Yes, the characters are silly. Yes, there is a fair amount of "OMG, that's so random!" going on. But while shows like Chowder may fail at times using this model, Adventure Time succeeds.
It does so thanks to wonderful voice acting, clever dialog and most of all, unusually mature themes. Not in a risqué sense, but...it doesn't rely on cookie cutter stories and it's comfortable leaving some endings ambiguous. It's also comfortable making characters believable (despite its fantasy setting).
This show is deserves attention.
