What time is it?

so in my editor's absence, I have sought the comfort of a show that I had been putting off watching. I am familiar with the producers and have hear a lot of good things about it, so I finally checked it out for myself. And which show am I talking about? Why, I'm talking about Adventure Time!

It doesn't have that much direction but its really enjoyable. The universe is well set up and I am genuinely entertained by it. Its also fun how many voice actors I recognize, including George Takei. So, props for that!

but you may be saying, why, adventure time is a kids show, and to which I reply, so is my little pony friendship is magic, and it has a larger adult fanbase than it's childrens fanbase. So there.

in all seriousness, I feel it is perfectly normal for non-kids to enjoy kids shows. I mean, unless you are really invested in the story line of baby Einstein or something, don't see anything wrong with it. These are shows written for kids by adults, but there isn't any rules against other age groups liking them. Its something I'd like to call as an "all age" show.

for example, shows like South Park are directed towards an adult audience, while shows like the Simpsons have adult themes, but can still be enjoyed by the younger crowd. Adventure Time and My Little Pony are no different, only their focus is towards kids but they also have mature elements and themes. You know, for learning and stuff.

I know I said all this poorly, but ultimately what I'm trying to say is that I find no shame in watching and enjoying cartoons, and I will never be ashamed of it. Besides, its no different than an adult getting excited for the next Disney movie. . .
