And unfortunately it's mainly misses.

The 1st, 2nd and 4th episode all had very poor writing, irritatingly clichéd characters, and a completely un-adventure-time-like feel.

What makes it even more frustrating is that al 3 episodes could have worked really well if the writing was more adequate, as focusing on 1-2 main characters an episode was a realy good choice.

Those characters, though, were dumbed down to the point that it feels like character development from the entire show was deleted into an uninspired mush so it could have a forced happy ending.

After just finishing the main show, it almost felt insulting to what the show has accomplished.

These might actually be my top 3 worst episodes of the ENTIRE series!

Ep1: 5/10, ep2: 4/10, ep4: 5/10

Then there's episode 3... which is one of the best in the entire series!

The difference in everything from writing to worldbuilding, to tying up loose ends from the show is incredible!

As it focuses on Finn and Jake, it's also the only episode that's more close the the main series, so I'm very thankful they at least nailed this most important episode in a near-perfect manner.

9,6/10 is what I would give it as well.

All in all it's mostly an uninspired mess, and I'd recommend to only watch the 3rd episode (but if you're as invested into the Adventure Time world as you should, I bet you'll watch them anyway) Just be prepared for mediocrity.

The final second of this episode blew me away and gave me goosebumps like few things can.

But wait, this is a low-tier filler episode, literally the (shared) 5th worst rated out of all 283 episodes! It's so incredibly filler, it's about random head-worms that can only say "chips" and "ice cream"! This is as filler as filler can possibly get!

Yes.

And I understand why it's rated this low, but only Adventure Time can make something that is this stupidly random have true heart and complete, wholesome purpose!

Pendleton and the other writers have a special childlike imagination, that no other show examplifies nearly as well as this one!

The fact that they can turn something as completely random and even irritating as Chips and Ice Cream into a complete story arc that inspires to look out for each other and see the world from others perspective is downright incredible! And that in 11 minutes!

And that change in perspective is perfectly showcased in the foreshadowing of the end scene.

The end of the play feels like a lack of sincerity of capitalist adults profiting off of children while spewing out nonsense. (which ironically is how filler episodes like these will be seen) When it returns in the end of the episode, you feel the fulfilled purpose in unexpectedly complex creatures, that get to live their life in a way they could only have dreamed of during captivity.

This is why Adventure Time is DIFFERENT!

Very close to a 10 for me and deserving of SO much more than the rating implies!

Aunty Donna's Big Ol' House Of Fun is basically a show consisting of episodes, consisting of sketches that never exceed 5 minutes in length and have as little as possible in common, except for "the word of the day". This is a premise that doesn't sound like it would be a success if it wasn't executed this brilliantly!

I did not know Aunty Donna from youtube previous to seein this, but I have gone back and revisited some of their online sketches. While often funny, they did not have the astonishing consistency that this series gives us. Every single sketch of every single episode is original, surprising, thought-provoking, and most importantly: really funny! And all of the different styles, themes and overall vibes of the sketches keep everything fresh and interesting, while still allowing some plotline to thread through.

This truly is the best concievable way to serialise youtube-sketch-comedy, and these guys really pulled it off!
