Adventure Time liked the mini-series so much, they did two back-to-back! Hot of the heels of “Islands” we head right into “Elements”, with Brad, JUSTIN, and Kevin covering the first four episodes on the mini-series, plus the Season 9 premiere “Orb” which is a bridge of sorts between the two.

Discussed are dreams and the meaning behind them, some big stuff that foreshadows the end of the series, and Brad once again comparing Adventure Time to whatever he’s currently watching online.

The end of the “Islands” mini-series (and Season 8) brings answers to two major questions: the origin of Susan Strong, and the discovery of Finn’s mother.

In addition to these, JUSTIN and Brad disagree about Martin Mertens, a plot hits way too close to home in the times of COVID, and the episode ends with some discussion of the proliferation of same sex couples in media. Maybe the deepest Floop yet!

The “Stakes” mini-series was such a hit that Adventure Time decided to do more, back to back! This week, Brad, JUSTIN, and Kevin dive into the first half of the “Islands” mini-series as Finn ventures off to find out where he came from.

On the way, they encounter some interesting creatures and some downright bizarre Islands, one of which Brad theorizes may have inspired another Pendelton Ward project. Continue reading Flooping the Pig – Episode 71: “Whipple”

Brad, JUSTIN, and Kevin delve into the “real” Season 7 finale, where we get a heavy tease of Susan Strong’s origin and the potential of discovering where Finn comes from.

From there, Finn is forced to confront himself (literally), resulting in the hosts discussing the concept of Last Thursdayism, “The Good Place”, and “Future Man” to explain the concept of two Finns.

Finally, the second Finn comes to terms with being an individual, as the real Finn fails to take over for Doctor Princess (who is not an actual PhD recipient?!) Continue reading Flooping the Pig – Episode 69: “Fern”

This batch of episodes introduces us to the idea of Elementals, and who the supposed elementals in the modern timeline are.

Other topics on the docket include Ice King’s gender swapped world receiving the Graybles treatment, the power of music attempting to cheer up Finn, and Jake bonding with his daughter to try and reconcile with his past. Comparisons to wrestling and the Office are brought up, and Brad forgot to watch an episode! Continue reading Flooping the Pig – Episode 68: “Patience”

Lady Rainicorn’s history, the return of the Spiky Village and Box Kingdom, the Finn Sword gets smashed, Finn and Flame Princess making amends, and TAFKA Magic Man – this episode has it all! It was so nice the gang recorded it twice, or at least that is Kevin’s excuse. Continue reading Flooping the Pig – Episode 67: “Lee”
