Death showing sympathy? That was weird.
She was awesome but wouldn't her jumping through the portal cause time problems?

That would be a shocker if that's true. I still find it strange that she tried to dunk Finn's head into the water. I thought she would have guessed a long time ago that he wasn't like the fish people.
I guess so, but sometimes she goes a little too far. I bet someone already made a list, but I'll just list reasons.
- Throwing everyone into the prison because of that king's screw up
- When seeing the gumball knight,
instantly trying to kill him
getting his face all messed up trying to get her attention
tries to experiment on her
She isn't all bad. Every mistake I mentioned, she always made it better in the end. She did
release everyone from prison, let the Gumball Knight go, and gave the husband candidate a clone of herself
sacrifice himself as a bad thing, but I don't think that was a bad thing she did. That was more for survival
I like a few malicious characters as well, but some of these are a little much.
She's a nice Dr. Wily.
Your list is slightly off base
-She threw them in prison because they protested her ruling of throwing the king in jail. He didn't really "screw" up, she was just being a jerk.
-She assumed he was dangerous.
-How was this a mistake? She didn't owe that guy anything, and no intentions of getting married. Peppermint butler was being a dumbass. And he got his own face messed up by trusting Peppermint, remember?
-She did nothing of the sort. She was observing FP, and trying to come up with a solution to her "world destroying powers."
And yeah, you're totally right with the James thing. She had the guts to make a hard choice. Like a true leader.

"You lose Simon. Sorry man"
It felt really ominous and sad... I really felt bad for him and Betty after that quote.

I don't think death can predict the future. So I'm not reading much into his line other than what most people say when someone loses.
Does anyone else feel like Finn is losing his mind this season? Actually the entire second half of this season seems off. It's like a bunch of nonsensical shorts along with weird changes in the characters' personalities. Maybe I'm missing something here.
Also, as much as I feel sorry for Simon, I don't really want him to have a happy ending. I've gotten used to the fact that he's fucked with that crown and there's nothing he can do about it. I was actually surprised how easily Bella Noche was able to take its power and restore Simon.

I don't think Simon can be saved. It has to do with Death telling him something along the lines "Welp, you had your chance."
Why would Death say that unless he knew it was Simon's only way out? Unless he was trying to trick him... which doesn't seem to be something Death would do.

He may have just meant he blew his shot at it that time around. No reason he can't get another opportunity... I hope...

I want PB to accidentally banish Finn and Jake to another dimension and for the show to switch to Simon and Wizard Betty's adventures next season.
Future episode titles revealed.
Looks like these will be the final episodes of the season. Some (arguably justifiable) grumbling stemming from Lemonhope getting a 2 parter and not Betty.
Also they uploaded the title card and a story board sketch for Bad Timing on the King of Ooo tumblr if you haven't seen it yet:

Just got some AT blu-rays so marathon time tomorrow!
I'm sure we'll get more on Betty next season, though I'm a bit miffed by that news and no word on anything new on Susan Strong. Since we will be moving onto season 6 later this year, I wonder how much steam this show still has left? There are a ton of stories still left to tell.
Speaking of, the AT comics are pretty good. I picked up a bunch off of Amazon and have been reading them. While not really canon, they are great and skirt around some of the stuff they've been doing in the show.

An episode about unfinished business that Billy had when he died sounds like a good way to end the season though.

Awesome, awesome episode. It seems they've got a lot of things to play around with and writing some closures of the characters we have seen. I am definitely excited for the direction of Season 6 when it comes

Season 3 is $21 at Best Buy right now, I don't foresee it going much cheaper then that.

I don't think BB ships internationally
I'm gonna bet on the next black friday sale, plus I just ordered three batches of blurays from 3 different amazon stores.

this probably already happened and LSP went back in time , I'm distracted by the stuff outside the circle
(Scratches head)
Just when I think i understood the episode, it eluded me. I'll need to watch that again. PB has issues, sad she reminds me of an old coworker to a tee.
I think the outside of it was a pocket of existence outside of space-time.

Hmm maybe LSP was in a paradox loop
Edit edit: I got it, she totally erased dude from their space time, which is why he was looking into the scene at the end, unable to interact.

That was a cool episode. Did the circle thing mean we were looking back in time or something?

I don't know, am I imaging things, or has OOO just gone completely off-the-rails sociopathic? LSP has always been exceedingly self-involved, and PB a little strange, but things are getting weird with everyone else. Marceline and BMO are about the only people unaffected.
It just seems...different. On purpose? Or creative drift? Or maybe my imagination.

illegal immigrants are stealing our air
This was a kind of a sad episode if you think about it, but it was so quick I don't think the gravity of what happened was really explored.
that's why it was good. the heaviness was only implied - since they don't have much of a chance to muck about being heavy-handed, it stays light which makes the sad bits quietly potent imo.
i don't get the circle though
I think it's supposed to imply that in this outer dimension you can still see what's going on in normal space-time but you can't interact with it and those in normal space-time aren't cognizant of your existence. Like viewing a television program.
It's interesting to note that the little guys in that pocket dimension don't seem too distressed by being stuck in limbo, some of them even find each other and become friends.
I think you should add Jake to the list of sane guys. If anything he became more rational after becoming a father.
For all intents and purposes, a dude was just straight up murdered in the most recent episode. This show is so fucking weird O_O
As someone else said though, people are starting to really go the off the rails in terms of personality. Maybe the writers want to reign that in?
Part of the reason it's so good though.

I don't even know what to make of the episode that aired last night. Half the time, I'm asking myself "What in the fuck am I even watching anymore?"

The writers ran out of fucks to give this season. Always loved how secretly bleak Adventure Time was but it's on another level lately.
I could really have done with an episode of Adventure Time that wasn't sad this week. It was good though. I kind of wish the time between the guy getting transported to LSP losing her memory had been longer, because it felt a bit rushed with PB instantly letting her forget everything. I hope they come back to this storyline, because that blue guy really didn't deserve that. It was sad watching him look in on the circle. And maybe LSP will be less annoying if she ever remembers what she did. I like her, but she can be grating.
I also freaked out when she only transported his head. That could have gotten really dark.

Watching this show incredibly slowly, just saw "Susan Strong". I take long breaks between episodes and every single new one to me is an astonishing treat. What a brilliant show.
May be misremembering, but it does seem like they really ramped up the crazy this season.
