Adventure Time (franchise)
Adventure Time is an American animated fantasy franchise created by Pendleton Ward, set in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo. The franchise originated from a 2007 short produced for Fred Seibert's animation incubator series Random! Cartoons at Nickelodeon Animation and aired on Nicktoons. After the short became a viral hit on the Internet, Nickelodeon's executives passed on its option before Cartoon Network commissioned a full-length series from Seibert and Ward, which premiered on Cartoon Network on April 5, 2010, and ended on September 3, 2018. The series drew inspiration from a variety of sources, including the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons and video games. Alongside the original television series, the characters of the show have been featured in a variety of media, including two spin-offs, comic series, card games and video games.

The original series centers on the coming of age of Finn the Human and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake the Dog—a dog with the magical power to change size and shape at will—as they embark on a series of adventures, interacting with Princess Bubblegum, the Ice King, Marceline the Vampire Queen, and several others. Different versions of the characters inhabit other dimensions throughout the show's multiverse and their personal characteristics can vary from one reality to another. The Adventure Time franchise has received widespread critical acclaim, winning several awards, including eight Primetime Emmy Awards, a Peabody Award, three Annie Awards, two British Academy Children's Awards, a Motion Picture Sound Editors Award, and a Kerrang! Award. The series has also been nominated for three Critics' Choice Television Awards, two Annecy Festival Awards, a TCA Award, and a Sundance Film Festival Award, among others. Of the many comic book series in the franchise, one received an Eisner Award and two Harvey Awards.
Main characters
Adventure Time follows the adventures of a boy named Finn the Human[lower-alpha 1] (voiced by Jeremy Shada), and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake the Dog (John DiMaggio), who has magical powers to change shape and size at will. Pendleton Ward, the series' creator, describes Finn as a "fiery little kid with strong morals".[1] Jake, on the other hand, is based on Tripper Harrison, Bill Murray's character in Meatballs. This means while Jake is somewhat care-free, he will "sit [Finn] down and give him some decent advice if he really needs it".[1] Finn and Jake live in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo, which was ravaged by a cataclysmic event known as the "Mushroom War", a nuclear war that destroyed civilization a thousand years before the series' events. Throughout the series, Finn and Jake interact with major characters, including the other main characters, Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch), the sovereign of the Candy Kingdom and a sentient piece of gum; the Ice King (Tom Kenny), a menacing but largely misunderstood ice wizard and Marceline the Vampire Queen (Olivia Olson), a thousand-year-old vampire and rock music enthusiast; and major recurring characters, Lumpy Space Princess (Pendleton Ward), a melodramatic and immature princess made out of "lumps"; BMO (Niki Yang), a sentient video game console-shaped robot that lives with Finn and Jake; and Flame Princess (Jessica DiCicco), a flame elemental and ruler of the Fire Kingdom.[2]: 346 [3][4]
Television series
Three television series make up the Adventure Time franchise: Adventure Time, Distant Lands, and Fionna and Cake. All series in total amount to 297 episodes across 12 seasons of television.

"Adventure Time" short (2007)
The series can trace its origin back to a seven-minute, stand-alone animated short film of the same name (this short would later be identified as the show's pilot post facto). Frederator Studios identified Ward and the short in 2006, and Ward created the short almost entirely by himself (along with Adam Muto, the eventual creative director and Ward college classmate worked as his creative companion on the short and future supervising director Larry Leichliter), and concluded its production in early 2006.[5] It was first broadcast on Nicktoons Network on January 11, 2007,[5][6]: 24 and was re-broadcast as part of Frederator Studios' anthology show Random! Cartoons on December 7, 2008.[7][8] After its initial release, the video became a viral hit on the Internet.[1][6]: 25
Adventure Time (2010–2018)
Adventure Time is a fantasy animated television series created by Pendleton Ward and produced by Frederator Studios for Cartoon Network. The series follows the adventures of a boy named Finn (Jeremy Shada) and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (John DiMaggio)—a dog with the magical power to change size and shape at will. Finn and Jake live in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo, where they interact with Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch), the Ice King (Tom Kenny), Marceline (Olivia Olson), BMO (Niki Yang), and others. The series is based on a 2007 short film that aired on Nicktoons. After the short became a viral hit on the Internet, Nickelodeon's executives passed on its option before Cartoon Network commissioned a full-length series from Fred Seibert and Ward, which was previewed on March 11, 2010. The same year, the series premiered on Cartoon Network on April 5, and it ended its eight-year run on September 3, 2018.

Fionna and Cake (2023)
On August 17, 2021, it was announced that a third series, Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake, had been ordered by HBO Max.[12] The series follows Finn and Jake's gender-swapped complements, Fionna the Human and Cake the Cat. The series also stars Simon Petrikov, a character who for most of Adventure Time had been identified as the Ice King. Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake sees the trio travel throughout the multiverse, while also being chased by "a powerful new antagonist" who is "determined to track them down and erase them from existence."[13]
Crossovers
Cameo in Futurama
"Leela and the Genestalk" is the twenty-second episode of the seventh season of the animated television series Futurama, and the 136th episode of the series overall.

The couch gag of "Monty Burns' Fleeing Circus" is a parody of Adventure Time, parodying the series' title sequence, complete with Pendleton Ward himself singing a spoof of the Adventure Time theme song. According to Al Jean, the executive producer of The Simpsons, "[The couch gag] was the brain child of Mike Anderson, our supervising director ... It's a really beautiful, elaborate crossover".[15]
