Cartoon Network: Adventure Time - Fionna and Cake (Vol. 4)

I understand that this is a kid's cartoon, but the Adventure Time series is a guilty pleasure of mine because many of the episodes convey an adventuresome and happy vibe. This show provides a refreshing change of positive programming. I own some of the other Adventure Time collections and preferred to check out "Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake" out of curiosity on how many Fiona themed episodes are included in the dvd. The good thing about this dvd is that there are sixteen quality episodes compiled along with the special feature of "Little Did You Know." My only issue with this dvd is that there was only one "Fionna and Cake" themed episode instead of at least 2-4 out of the 16 selected episodes. Additionally, this dvd is more for those who really enjoy this cartoon series due to the fact that it is not a full season collection dvd. Aside from these caveats, "Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake" is a great selection for those who like to watch cheerful shows.

My daughters, ages 13 & 11, are hooked on Adventure Time, which I really don't know too much about because I usually don't watch it with them. When my daughter saw this she wanted it as soon as it came out because apparantly they don't show Fionna & Cake with Finn & Jake. From what I gather they are from two different worlds so the Fionna & Cake episodes do not play all the time and only Fionna & Cake only appear in their own episodes. When I bought the dvd I thought it was going to be all Fionna & Cake episodes and didn't realize til afterwards that I think there are only 2 fionna & cake episodes 1. Fionna & Cake, #8. What Was Missing. There is also a special feature titled "Little Did You Know" which unfortunately I can't say what is about because it is a gift that my daughter is getting for Easter. I wouldn't go by the some of the terrible ratings of disgruntled viewers who want the full season on dvd. From a kids point of view I think they will love it. It has episodes from season's 2, 3 & 4. Episodes: 1 Fionna and Cake 2 Storytelling 3 The Other Tarts 4The Silent King 5 Death In Bloom 6 Still 7 Wizard 8 What Was Missing 9 From Bad To Worse 10 Marceline's Closet 11 Ghost Princess 12 Incendium 13 Card Wars 14 Princess Cookie 15 You Made Me 16 Lady & Peebles Plus special feature "Little Did You Know" So for under $12 I wouldn't be complaining. If they don't have full seasons out yet at least this has from seasons 2, 3 & 4. So all in all I think a good buy for Adventure Time fans.

It's not season one of Fionna and Cake. It's just a collaboration of odd episodes from the original series.

I know, everyone hates the "grab bag" style releases that Cartoon Network has been putting out. And yes, they are bunk. The full seasons should (and will be) available easily, and it sucks having these little teasers. We get it. But for those of us neurotic enough to want all of the Adventure Time they can get, this is a really good, inexpensive treat. The selection of episodes is really solid, and I personally think it was worth the price. Besides, when the full seasons are out, I'm fairly certain I know someone who would be more than happy to accept hand-me-down goodness.

I know a lot of you are mad about how they wont released seasons until they made like 3 of these random collections. I would say I am upset by that too. However I think these are nice little dvds to hold us over. They are pretty cheap and are still enjoyable to watch. The alternative is to wait a year or more for the next season to come out and if you want stuff from the fourth season you will have to wait a few years.I think these little dvds are a nice value and you will probably watch it more then enough times before the next season comes out. My recommendation is to get this only if you are a big fan of the show other wise you can probably wait till the seasons come out.

Being a big Adventure Time fan family, we buy almost everything Adventure Time related that comes out, so this release was no exception. As with previous "vanilla" releases, you're getting DVD-quality versions of the episodes, and they're a mixture of Season Three with a bit of Season Four, and overall they're a good choice of episodes. If you're looking for something more canonical, then definitely wait for the (assumed) Adventure Time Season Two Complete, which will not only have all the episodes in order from that season, but also the excellent commentary and extras that really add to the enjoyment of the episodes.

People keep driving down the rating for this AMAZING SHOW because they're upset about it being released on DVD as volumes instead of complete seasons. GET OVER IT! If you want to watch complete seasons, they're available to purchase streaming from Amazon, or on the Cartoon Network website just as easily as buying a DVD. My family and I LOVE these DVDs, and I will continue to purchase them (volumes AND seasons) and official Adventure Time merchandise, because I want to support this wonderful show so the creators can continue to make it!

I love Adventure time and when I saw this DVD I was very excited! Fionna and cake episodes one one DVD! Well, that's where the enthusiasm ended because it's only the 1 episode 'Fionna and Cake' and the rest are all random Finn and Jake episodes. 'Bad Little Boy' isn't even on here. Had I know what it was going to be I would have saved my $13 and just downloaded the 2 episodes I really wanted off of iTunes. Not worth it.
