BMO is such a great character. This episode was one of the strongest AT offerings in a long time.

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Did that episode settle that bmo is a boy? (and football is a girl?) instead of the weird cool genderless robot thing they had been doing? Yeah, but the point is they're both BMO. The poor little guy(or gal) is basically having a psychotic meltdown.

I mean someone is drooling to call me a tumblr SJW or whatever for typing this but it seemed cool to have BMO just be a genderless robot that could be he or she depending on mood rather than it being part of being literally insane.

BMO has had a few occasions so far that straddle the line between childish imagination and serious hallucination.

I think the whole thing with BMO is he/she doesn't even understand gender and just sort of uses gendered pronouns interchangeably. It's not so much about BMO using the words depending on it's mood but more that BMO is using the words without understanding their meaning to feel more human.

I thought that was canon? Everybody refers to BMO as a different gender, usually with guys referring to it as "him" and gals, "her." It's more affectionate than "it," much in the same way someone refers to their car as a "she." Even BMO stumbled over he/she when referring to itself. It's not a matter of technical correctness, but of emotional personification.

For perpetual child BMO, the difference between imagination, reality, and insanity is not particularly relevant.

The goddamn giant sentient mushroom yelling out mushroom facts while attacking them was just...I don't know, hit me in just the right way and I was laughing so hard I had to pause the episode. It's exactly something this show would do but it's still such a surreal and weird thing for a character like that to even exist. It's like it wandered into the show from some other show's drug trip.

BMO doesn't know poo poo about gently caress. See: BMO singing about the egg they had: #Oh, oh BMO, #How'd you get so pregnant? #Who is the mother, who is the father?

This entire week feels like a sort of re-introduction to everything and everyone in AT. Which I think is kinda necessary. You have All in all, I'm looking forward to the new season. Hoping for more Canyon to showup as a big sister, and really anticipating what they're going to do with Magic Ma'Am and a depowered and sane Magic Man.

I'm really happy with these new episodes. The Bonnie and Neddie ep was a bit pandering but was still cool and Football was so gawl drat adorable.

From the promos it looks like they'll be airing the Staked episodes a half hour at a time Mon-Thur at 8pm EST next week (I'm just assuming the half hour thing because they're only making it a four night event). From the promos it also looks like Finn and Jake are in there too so it's not gonna be a week without them.

Pretty sure everyone kept forgetting which one was which, but I can't remember. If not, I don't think it's too crazy for BMO to differentiate between gender for this one imagination/hallucination/ghost session then go back to using whatever next episode.

Guys, BMO is a little machine that's into theater and drama. A natural curiosity and artistic drive with no preconceived notion of gender due to being a box with arms and legs just lets BMO go a little wild with the creative process there, much like a child would. Don't over think it.

Don't over think it. But BMO has many compartments/ports to fill and no antennae that we've been shown, I think this is pretty clear.

Sometimes I wonder how big the overlap is in the Venn diagram between people who need their hands held through TV shows to explain things and people who criticize the same shows for pandering when they do.

Does anyone know the reason why these episodes aren't up on Amazon Instant Video? Was there a falling out between Time Warner and Amazon over them not supporting certain devices any more?

I don't know how these sort of things get made but in my head they are getting a script that reads *Mushroom recites bits from wikipedia* and just filling that in themselves since they don't know what the one is on the show.

According to an interview with Kent Osborne Pen Ward wrote all the Megamush dialogue himself in all caps on the outline while the other writers kept busting up laughing. Plus I know Jesse Moynahan is a big kombucha fan so that is probably where that came from. But it's not made out of mushrooms, just bacteria.
