Talk:List of Adventure Time episodes

Season articles and template

As a heads up to those who may not be aware, Whisternefet has recently made separate articles for each season. There's also a new template made where you can find all the links to those articles located here. Paper Luigi ^{T • C} 18:33, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Original Short Airdate

The original short airdate has AGAIN been changed to December 2008. The short actually aired in January 2007 by itself on Nicktoons network before it leaked and became viral online. It may have officially aired in some cartoon anthology in December 2008, but that doesn't mean it's when the short originally aired. Although I've never been able to find an exact date I had this confirmed by the show's official Tumblr. That post was removed, but this post (http://conepines.tumblr.com/post/33239506926/adventuretime-from-another-era-it-seems-like) remains and is being used (oddly enough) as a citation proving it premiered in December 2008. What is the reason for this? There is such a huge gap of time between 2007 and 2008, and the fact that it first aired much earlier than it was picked up as a series is an important part of its history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IAmCoolMan (talk • contribs) 05:30, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Removing an episode from the list

Hey, can you please remove "Frost & Ice" from the season 5 episode list? Because one of the show staff has confirmed that this episode is fake. I have a source for this statement. Jameswaterson24 (talk) 01:43, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Done.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 04:16, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Episodes structure

I'm sorry but isn't an episode of Adventure Time originally made from two 11-minute segments? - CuldeSac12

Waaaaaay back in the day, they used to count one episode as two 11-minute segments, but new episodes do no air as two. Nowadays, it's considered common practice to just refer to each segment as an episode.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 22:27, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

I don't care about how people refer the episodes. I just wanna know how an episode is originally structured: one or two segments each. I have the same dilema regarding The Amazing World of Gumball, Teen Titans Go! and Sonic Boom.--CuldeSac12 (talk) 16:19, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

They're produced by twos, I guess (that's why two episodes will share one credit screen), but they are never aired in twos anymore (except for season premieres and finales), at least, not in terms of two new episodes. It's usually one new episode and one rerun.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 20:12, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

Ha! So you know that two episodes share one credit screen. And I just looked over the history of this page and I saw that Adventure Time was really considered as a two-shorts series before (same goes with The Amazing World of Gumball). There's no reason for doubting. Adventure Time, along with TTGO and TAWOG, are two-shorts series and their episode guides should be edited for the eps to be listed 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CuldeSac12 (talk • contribs) 17:27, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Backdoor Source for episode production codes

I was lurking on the toonzone forums and found that someone had discovered that if you put in this url http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/cnservice/cartoonsvc/content/xml/getContentById.do?contentId= and followed it with a number that can be found by inspecting the source of a show's video page (for season 7 of AT it would be 511521) one would see the episodes in that season listed with various details, including "episode number". Checking through most shows finds that "episode number" matches production codes and that includes season 7 of Adventure Time (the first 6 seasons of AT it actually does not, instead having episode pairings, though that order also doesn't always follow airing order.) Do you think this could be used as a source for production codes (for season 7 specifically)? Zemblant (talk) 21:08, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Good find! I double-checked the numbers for "Bonnie & Neddy", "Varmints", "Cherry Cream Soda", and "Everything Stays", and you're right, they match up. I'm comfortable with your reasoning, so I went ahead and added 'em to the article.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 22:04, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Story By

Do you guys think we should add the "Story By" credit to each episode? Some other shows do so, and there's enough variance with the story writers that it's not like a single season would have the same story writers throughout. Zemblant (talk) 00:02, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

I think it's advised per the Manual of Style that we don't: it says to only include "a list of the writers, directors, airdates, [...] production codes [...] episode title and episode number". Adding that info would also cramp up the infobox.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 02:08, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Well the story by credit does list writers and there are already episode pages (like uncle grandpa and flapjack) that list it. Zemblant (talk) 23:24, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

True, but those don't list directors, like we do that for AT. I still think it would get really crowded. I peeked through the revision histories, and at one point, the writers were listed, but they were reverted due to MOS adherence.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 00:44, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

My Two Favorite People - Walmart Exclusive 2xDVD release

This needs to be added - and guess what! Pictures of the actual release - front, back covers, cello stickers, AND both included DVD labels AT https://www.filmo.gs/release/34313-Adventure-Time-My-Two-Favorite-People-Walmart-Exclusive

I believed you (in fact, I've seen it myself), you just didn't provide a source before. Now it can be added.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 01:52, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

Season 7, 8, 9

So, here's a good place to discuss this. For a long while, I was under the impression that season 7 was 39 episodes long, but it seems that CN has deemed this not to be the case. The release of the seventh season DVD cements the fact that CN (i.e. the powers that be) consider episodes 1-26 to be season 7 proper, and everything after that to be parts of seasons 8 and 9. Case in point, the CN website lists "Broke His Crown" as ep 1 of season 8 and "Orb" as ep 1 of season 9 (NOTE: Click on "Full Episodes", it's the first one listed). That's why the list has been reordered and restructured accordingly. Once/if we get season 8 and 9 on DVD, this will hopefully settle the debate.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 14:48, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Gen Quon, season 7 did not end with "The Thin Yellow Line". Cartoon Network has their information wrong, has listed season 5 as 2 separate seasons. Season 7's list has already been confirmed by the productions own information. CN is not the reliable source - even the sources that announced the show's cancellation don't mention season 8 already airing. Here's a source for you, get your info right: https://40.media.tumblr.com/da7fab192ba22ae71e0363b644bbb995/tumblr_inline_nzdicc2UXk1tf0yl3_1280.jpg — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.127.140.100 (talk) 16:38, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

(And I just now saw this. "CN is not the reliable source" What? CN produces and publishes the show, so of course they are reliable. Also, CN isn't reliable but apparently a random image online is?)--Gen. Quon (Talk) 13:47, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Fine, you want a reliable source? Well, since a reposted image from the storyboarding office isn't good enough for you, here's the statement from Adam Muto that confirms the ordering was messed up: https://ask.fm/MrMuto/answers/143415325128 ; Cartoon Network may be the company that releases the show, but they're not the one's actually making it. As such, it's only natural they'd mess up the ordering since they don't bother to check with production. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.127.140.100 (talk) 15:09, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Where is the production code of the next episodes? i guide of the production code because it's different in every season but if you want to guide for the DVD no problem, i don't discuss that, but i guess that you should guide for the production code --Andy4008 (talk) 02:47, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

I don't think we have that info just yet. Usually, we can glean it from the storyboards that are posted at kingofooo.tumblr.com, but since the episode hasn't aired and they haven't posted the storyboard, we'll just have to wait.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 13:47, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

"Leaked" onto the internet

I'm a little confused by the wording of the lead paragraph, which says that "the pilot eventually leaked onto the internet" after its first airings. "Leaking" something implies that it was secret or hidden before, and since this sentence follows one about it already airing on TV, should it be changed? Rephrasing it to "the pilot was uploaded onto the internet" seems like it would work better here. Since this is a featured list, I thought I'd ask here before changing anything. Hammill Ten (talk) 19:06, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Good point. I changed it.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 14:46, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

HBO Max specials

Can these be counted as episodes of the TV show? It hasn't been necessarily stated that these are produced as part of the show, and aren't their own separate thing. I think it's too early to determine this, and I generally wouldn't list in the episode guide until more information comes out. If they are in fact, part of the television show itself, that would mean the end date on the main article would eventually need to be changed in the future. HurricaneGeek2002 (talk) 21:24, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

IMHO, these are effectively like the Minecraft special, likely produced outside the official show, but still affiliated with it. I think we'll have to wait until we get more info to be 100%, but I've listed them here just so we have a place to put info.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 21:36, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
