Apparently, you can skip all of S3, because Weisman and the rest of the original writing staff weren't on it.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
That's my understanding, too.
I know there was a Weisman-led comic book that picks up after season 2 and pretends 3 doesn't exist, but I haven't read it.

As highly enjoyable as the latest Archer was, I am mildly disappointed that it didn't address the whole crocodiles can climb trees thing.

Cool. I just got an Amazon pre-order recommendation for "Spectacular Spider-Man: The Complete Series" on blu-ray. They never did release season 2 on DVD as a set. I'll be able to clear my ahemed copies off the HTPC.

Emily Nussbaum writes up Adventure Time in the New Yorker: [link]
Cartoon Network has ceded the 8pm timeslot to Adult Swim, the air times for everything has been moved up an hour, so now Adventure Time airs at 6pm instead of 7. I wouldn't be surprised if this new season ends up being the last one.

I wouldn't be surprised if this new season ends up being the last one.
And then...they go through the multidimensional portal and we get to see six seasons of the adventures of Fionna and Cake!

Relatedly, the Cartoon Network suits are a bunch of dicks.

Even more on Adventure Time.
Compared to, say, the stuff I read on the Internet about GoT, where critics can zero in on exactly what they like and don't like about it, the writing about Adventure Time is a lot more nebulous than traditional criticism. People are having a hard time putting their fingers on why they like it.
