The Televerse #342- Spotlight on Adventure Time: “Blenanas”, “Jake the Starchild”, “Temple of Mars”, and “Gumbaldia”

With the series finale of Adventure Time looming, Noel and Kate take extra time this week to dive deep with the show’s penultimate batch of episodes, spotlighting “Blenanas”, “Jake the Starchild”, “Temple of Mars”, and “Gumbaldia” and speculating about what the final arc may bring (and how very not ready we are to say goodbye to Ooo). Before that, however, there’s plenty of TV to discuss. First up, we look at the week’s reality and comedies, including the season 10 premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the finales of Fresh Off the Boat and Speechless, and another terrific Atlanta. Then we move over to the drama and genre offerings, including another fun The Good Fight, the finale of The X-Files, and strong installments of Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, and iZombie. What are you hoping to see in the final episodes of Adventure Time? Has iZombie run into new trouble with its brain balance? Reach out and let us know what you think.
