“You like what you see, huh?” “It’s just garbage trash!” “Back home, I would only walk this far by accident.” “But I’m so cute.” And that’s just a small sampling. Literally almost everything BMO says is a memorable one-liner. There’s a lot of funny moments, but the bulk of it absolutely comes from BMO, who happily gets a ton of screen time. The story and world never get too overbearing because of the silly optimism that runs through all of “BMO.” No surprises here, but most of that silly optimism comes from BMO, who remains the rare case of a cute, comic relief character who you can always stand more of. The story ultimately concerns the people of the Drift collectively coming to recognize their Elon Musk-esque tech capitalist overlord is destroying their world and that they can only rely on each other. As it was in some of the best episodes of the series, there’s a bleakness under all the fun, not to mention some pretty serious themes explored. It’s a lot like a Tatooine or maybe something out of Dune, except it’s the fun, Adventure Time version. The same silly, cute vibe lives on in how the characters are never fully serious, but the Drift is a much more grounded, tragic sci-fi setting compared to the colorful fantasy world of Ooo. It’s also neat to see Adventure Time explore a setting unlike Ooo. It’s a solid story structure and Y5 is a likable protagonist. Y5 is a hesitant, inexperienced adventurer, which provides the basis needed for BMO to enter her life and force her along a hero’s journey of character growth. Obviously, yes.Īdventure Time season 1 DVD review By Louisa MellorĪdventure Time: Distant Lands makes it work by filling the vacuum left by Finn and Jake with a new hero named Y4, who is later renamed Y5, so we’ll go with that. How can you not love BMO? But, you may ask, can BMO sustain a 45-minute episode of his own without any of the rest of the Adventure Time gang? Yes. Voiced as hilariously and adorably as ever by Niki Yang, it’s a total no-brainer to have BMO reintroduce us to Adventure Time. The other reason this episode succeeds so well is that it is called “BMO” and it stars BMO. The first of the four-episode special, Adventure Time: Distant Lands, deftly sidesteps this problem by being fully disconnected from the concluding events of the show, proving there are, indeed, many more stories to be told in this universe, but that they work better when they’re standalone.

I tried to get into them, but the magic and fun of the TV show just doesn’t translate well to the page and, yeah, there is something a bit lame about the series’ ending being undercut by the characters just going on some more adventures afterwards.

In fact, there are already ongoing Adventure Time comics that explore the further tales of Finn and Jake’s post-show escapades (and there’s another comic series about Marceline, too). With such a great finale, there are certainly ways Adventure Time could be brought back that would feel disappointing. This Adventure Time: Distant Lands review contains spoilers.Īdventure Time’s ending had a poignant, satisfying sense of finality to it while at the same time implying there were many more unseen adventures yet untold.
