Old School Lane Casual Chats: Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake

In this episode of Casual Chats, Patricia and special guest Paul "Gunterfan1992" Thomas discuss about the 2023 animated series Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake, the third installment of the Adventure Time series. Taking place years after the events of Adventure Time, Simon Petrikov is living as a curator of life around his time over a thousand years before the Mushroom War at Ooo. Not feeling satisfied with his life, he conjures a spell to bring back his significant other Betty from the space creature Golb. But he ended up summoning from his mind a young woman named Fionna and her cat named Cake, who are the gender swapped versions of Finn and Jake that he thought were simply fanfic stories that his former alter ego The Ice King came up with. Now, he has to find a way to bring them back to their world and find a way to get Betty out of Golb. Fionna and Cake received positive reviews from critics and fans delving more into darker, more mature directions than Adventure Time ever had. What did they think of it? Listen and find out.
