The big revelation within this episode is that Fionna and Cake were apparently apart of some super old television show before the Mushroom War. However, the decision to build on the lore behind Fionna and Cake is one that I typically ignore all together just because of how ridiculous and pointless it is. This is the type of episode that really makes me wonder, “who thought this was a good idea?” With all of the controversial misfires that AT dished out over the years, such as Finn gaining his arm back and Betty’s introduction being quickly glossed over, I’ve been able to accept everything for what it was even if it wasn’t perfect, or good, at the very least.
A bold statement to say the least, but it’s not because the episode is filled with weird gags and non-sequiturs, akin to King Worm. I don’t think a single episode of Adventure Time strikes me as more bizarre than Fionna and Cake and Fionna. Original Airdate: JWritten & Storyboarded by: Aleks Sennwald & Hanna K.
