The whole miniseries was so good.

Steven Universe gets all the attention these days, but Adventure Time just keeps upping their game, their whole game, in terms of art and design, storytelling, and characterization. They spent years and years leading off to this payoff, and they just nailed it.

At this point in its lifetime, The Simpsons was already kind of starting to suck, but Adventure Time is only getting better.

I think the craziest/most frustrating thing about how good Adventure Time continues to be is that Cartoon Network has basically written it off at this point, with minimal promotion and advertising.
