“…like no other cartoon you have ever watched before…”

I just read one of my favorite Adventure Time pieces (from last October), pointed out to me by Adrienne D’amato in the Cartoon Network press department. Michelle McCrary is a writer at Geekmom who writes (no surprise) from a Mom’s point of view —-not necessarily in the wheelhouse of our typical tumblr reader— and she’s captured the essence of the show in a clear and simple way that seems to elude a lot of reviewers. -Fred

What Time Is It? Adventure Time!

Have you seen this strange cartoon that appears Monday nights, on Cartoon Network? It’s called Adventure Time, and I have to admit, my whole family is in love with it. When I say that it is strange, I mean that it is like no other cartoon you have ever watched before. When I say that it is wonderful, I mean that it is funny and creative, holding the attention of kids and adults equally. (More here…)
