Great episode. So Jake was saying goodbye in the dream when you reverse the dialogue. Interesting.
Would appear so or at least part of it haha. Man I laughed so much when they revealed it was Gunther. Talk about a twist.

Yeah, PB's weird Orwellian society wasn't going to last.
I'm curious what happened to Finn and Jake though in the future.

Tick-tock, Finn.
That arm is just a matter of time
Tick-tock, Finn.
Really don't know where they are going with the whole arm thing. Will Finn lose it again?

Well even though he regrew that arm, it's still not his arm. As shown when he woke up with a thorn growing out of his palm.

I really don't trust them to revisit the arm thing well. Heck, with the ramping up of hints towards Ooo's bad future, I'm expecting they'll do a story where it seems like the bad future will happen but then everything returns to normal.
I'm worried about this too. Time and time again they build up to awesome stuff happening only to return to the status quo within a few episodes. I'd label it as the show's biggest weakness, I think.

I think the reason
Martin and Sweet P will disappear is because of the Lich's reawakening, but I think it'll be Gunter that ends it all (which is why she takes the disco ball from the ceiling, showing that it's the end of the "party" or "good times"), and it will happen just as Finn finally gets to know his Dad.

I think the clocks on the Bear are signs of when this will start to happen, maybe the first will be in 7-8 episodes ( 7 or 8 o'clock on the front of the bear) and then his arm will finally reveal it's use (the thorn) or be chopped off around then.

It's on Netflix.
Hulu plus just recently got the first five seasons.
It's also up at the usual other places in HD

Not anymore in the US.
There's nothing wrong with the the animators goofing off. It's just difficult to take their storytelling seriously. As one poster has said, the show has made a habit of undoing major events after a few episodes. How can I invest in the build up when I know nothing is going to come of it?
D:
I don't think AT was ever really intended to be a show where you become heavily invested in the plot. That's an aspect that rose up unexpectedly. I don't really hold them to the standards of a serialized drama.
I do understand where you're coming from though.

All this foreshadowing of 'bad PB' and insinuations that she may become the shows villain undone in one by Gunther of all characters.
Feels like a Finn's arm cop-out all over again.

It's why I've kinda bailed out of the show after the arm arc at the start of the season.
There is nothing wrong with having non-story episodes and non-lore heavy arcs, but if you are going to have major plot elements keep them constant in the story and frame the other sub-plots around it.
Don't just have a major event and fix it right away.
I just feel like they missed the boat and now they are trying to have it both ways.

Okay so I've been gone and without tv access for awhile. Can someone tell me all the episodes I've missed since August of last year? I need to catch up but I can't even remember the last episode I watched.
I disagree. They have to commit. They can't have it both ways.

Phew. That's a lot of episodes to catch up on. Thanks.
That's exactly the problem I have with the show. The writers don't seem to have the desire commit to a story but they still want to tell one anyway despite the fact that they build up these grand events only to fake out at the last minute. They just need to realize that these constant resets to make it hard to put any gravity into their story.
I dunno. Stuff like the arm I don't have a problem with. They had a couple episodes about not having an arm, that ran its course, so they had an episode about getting the arm back. I don't think that Finn permanently not having an arm would have really deepened the story in any way.
That said, keep in mind that the writers often play the long game. We still have random seldom-mentioned things from early seasons that come back and play a big story role (such as Gunter being evil). The replacement arm, Finn's dad, all that stuff could easily show up later.
Okay, now that there's confirmation I can post an actual reply to this thread:
King of Ooo
There it is. CN is having a "Finn Bomb" week of several premiere episodes to wrap up Season 6 with a bang, starting Monday June 1st. As has been speculated before, it appears the (real) comet will be making its grand (re)entrance.

Understandable. They did an entire episode building up to the comet arriving early, and it turned out to just be Finn's dad in a spaceship. This is apparently the real deal, which I don't believe has been foreshadowed to be arriving soon in the episodes after the one with Finn's dad.
This pool is too deep for babies.

More than a week away. Since Jesse's doing this solo you can bet it's going to be mind-trippy.

New CN promo for summer featuring next week's Adventure Time premieres
Almost seems to be a template. Will we be seeing other CN shows having their own premiere weeks? Strike that, looks like they're definitely setting up mini-CN bombs for the rest of summer. Anyways, lots of interesting AT details to chew over in those quick peeks.
