what happened to this show man?
Older seasons:
>consistent style/tone
>had an entertaining, focused, comprehensible story
>actually had witty/funny/natural dialogue
>episodes usually posed a problem for Finn or Jake (or both) and they actually got developed as characters and were relatable
>oftentimes actually conveyed a meaningful, simple moral question or philosophical theme
>fluid, vibrant animation
Newer seasons:
>episodes are totally spontaneous, never know what show I'm going to be watching this week
>unfocused, poorly written stories that make little to no literal sense and are boring as fuck to watch
>lol look how art and symbolism and 2deep we are!!
>are you feeling the feels yet?!
>finn and jake are practically c-listers in their own show, they rarely go on adventures anymore
>there's no longer any likable characters
>ruin perfectly good long-term plot lines in anticlimactic ways or never resolve any until MANY episodes later
>dialogue is usually just ear-gouging stuff with too much made up slang, killing any chance at intimacy with the audience
and because of all these things, the show is now a literal ghost town around here. it used to be so big too.
what do you think /co/, can it ever recover?
