Adventure Time Season 1-5
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
What time is it? It’s time for Adventure Time: The Complete First SeasonDVD. The Cartoon Network’s Number 1 hit comedy show and Emmy® nominated seriesthat centers on the post apocalyptic adventures of Finn, a human boywith a funny hat, and his friend Jake, a magic and mischievous dog.
People often describe this as a kids show. It’s not. It’s not really for adults either. It doesn’t have a target age group. It’s a show marketed to gamers. If you’ve grown up playing RPGs, platformer adventure games, watching/reading fantasy set films/books, or if you just like minecraft, this show is for you.
In D&D terms, show is primarily about a LG human fighter (fin) and his befriended magical beast (Jake) whom is probably CG. And it’s probably one of like 10 total shows on american TV that feature an actually LG protagonist (most are evil with “More evil” antagonists).
Episodes are short (11 min or so each, Amazon episodes are 2-episodes pairs). Plots are usually simple and good natured, though some get weird (but nothing too dark).

The most popular cartoon on the Cartoon Network currently is Adventure Time. It is beloved by children, teenagers, adults, girls, boys, alike. Created by Pendleton Ward and set in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo, it’s not hard to see why:
1) Adventure Time has simple, yet colorful animation. Adventure Time is probably the most colorful show on television right now. Even if you are watching on standard definition, your television screen illuminates while watching Adventure Time. The animation doesn’t rely on CGI gimmicks to catch your eye, only imagination. The sights are so vivid, including the background. The animation is completely sketched and has a 90s feel to it.
2) Adventure Time has, in my view, the most interesting and funniest bunch of characters of any show on television. The show’s main characters are the wise cracking Jake The Dog and Finn The Human, Jake’s naïve, young best friend. Others include Valley Girl-accented Lumpy Space Princess, of the `lumpy’ peoples; BMO, an all-in-one talking electronic device; Princess Bubblegum, the nerdy Princess of the `candy peoples’; and punk rocker Marceline, The Vampire Queen.
3) Adventure Time has comedy, fantasy, action, romance, music, science fiction, and horror all in one. The humor is slapstick and irreverent and so random. Musical numbers are incorporated regularly, which are usually infused with the show’s irreverent humor. There’s always action and a new adventure – Finn and Jake are always fighting off bad guys and saving friends/people in need. While The Land of Ooo looks colorful and much of it is `happy’, it is largely `dark’ inside. There are several eye-catching scary moments.
Adventure Time is the best cartoon of the 21st century, in my view. I didn’t watch many cartoons during my adult life until I discovered Adventure Time while channel surfing. Adventure Time was my gateway drug to other cartoons. Cartoons, especially Adventure Time, offer a form of escapism and feature a level of imagination which I’ve come to appreciate.
