I would consider it a personal favor if you were to watch the episode, read Steve Yun's analysis of it and then decide if we're just a bunch of sniggering assholes getting our rocks off or if this interpretation is at least plausible.

Man, I miss when Adventure Time was just a cool funny show about a kid and his stretchy dog. I have no clue what the gently caress it is now.

I watched the first season of Adventure Time and it was really good, but Netflix doesn't have any other season so I never didn't watch any other season. I heard it's pretty dumb now, and I guess I'm happy Netflix never picked up any of the others.

Edit: Anyway, Looks like the titles and dates for the next two episodes have been posted.

September 8, 2014-Sock Opera

and

September 19, 2014-Soos and the Real Girl. The preview image to this one I found on the Gravity Falls wiki and... I guess were going there.

Sorry to :can: guys, but for real though, it's been a while between seasons, and Harry Potter comes to mind as another series that grew up with its fans. Maybe they're done dismissing with a lot of tween tropes for now or maybe they're getting them out of the way for something more complex.

The mysteries work best as external metaphors for internal struggle for Mabel/dipper, and as pure episodic set pieces

the episode was a rip on Alien. Alien has some rapey themes but even that's not a cut and dry case of 'it's definitely rape', and then you filter it through the lens of a children's show and it's just loving weird. technically yes it's a 'valid interpretation' i guess but god drat is it loving uncomfortable to talk about in such a context.

the show's creator is a known manchild though and he doesn't really seem to shy away from putting that kind of hosed up stuff in the show so maybe it was intended?

-------------------

Okay though, to contribute, do we know for sure if there's going to be a season 3 of this? Do we know if they're going to finish airing this season before I start collecting Social Security?

I haven't seen the AT episode, but Alien is very obviously "Dick Aliens and Rape: The Movie."

To go with something slightly more on-topic, Ian Worrel, art director of Gravity Falls, has won an Emmy. That's pretty great.
