I watched Adventure Time before I watched Regular Show...I actually kinda liked it... I think.

Or at least I liked some stuff about it (Had some okay eps.), but I only liked 2 characters from the whole crew. I honestly thought Finn and Jake were the most annoying protagonists ever (Or one of the worst. Finn more so), and that vampire queen annoyed the fu*k out of me (Worst character ever). It's about as bad as Twilight's vampire version, but no one ever seems to bring that up, or even care. Now they're whinny, emo wannabies, singing songs about their daddy and drinking red, wtf. I'm sorry, but I just couldn't stop thinking how she was just there so the fans would have someone to feel sorry for. I mean really.

But anywayss....I liked the Ice King and PB (since she seemed kinda nuts), and that's...it? I don't really see myself 'having a future' with this show. I only picked, and watched some episodes that had Ice King and PB in them. And it was still a downer that Finn had to be in every episode. Don't mean to be offensive, he's just really...not my type of character, tis' all. Still more barable then the queen of emo, tho.

So yaa...I watched a few episodes from earlier seasons, then quit after a while I guess. I still find it a bit hard to imagine why it's so popular. The fans say it has a lot of dept, but all I saw was very visable/hearable stuff being thrown onto the fans. There was nothing to wonder about or to 'dig' into. They also say it's creative...yeah man, all those elbow and hotdog princesses just blew me away. Like really.

The fans also like to say it's 'something new', because of the new world thing (Land of Oh or whatever)...have you been living under a rock? Seriously.I bet I could count down 10 fantasy books that did that, 5 movies and at least 5 other cartoons. Who am I kidding? Probably more, but I probs shouldn't push it, since I barely watch TV anymore. o.o

BUT, I guess it just a matter of perspective. I obviously think Regular Show is better. Better/more likable/relatable characters, more character depth, better stories, more realistic/better char. moments, better/more complexe relationships...what else? Obviously there's more, but characters are the main issue with me it seems. And AT totally failed to give me what I wanted in the chars.
