Show Review: Adventure Time is a unique cartoon. It's episodes are short and feature Finn and Jake and a new adventure in the Land of Ooo. The show has it's own quirky characters and even language. Finn often uses the word "lump" in the place of actually swearing. I have to admit that I really didn't get the show at first. It just seemed odd and I didn't really understand the humor. But after a few episodes it started to grow on me. Yes, I will admit that most the time the show doesn't make sense and the show is completely off the wall but I think it's strange humor is what makes it appealing.
Annotation: Finn and his magical dog is off adventuring in the crazy Land of Ooo.
Why for tweens? The show is short 11 minute episodes with quirky and often crude humor. There is plenty of action and adventuring as Finn and Jake travel around Ooo engaging in hilarious adventures.
