Cartoon Network: Adventure Time - Fionna and Cake (Vol. 4)
M**E
Must have Fionna & Cake!!
My daughters, ages 13 & 11, are hooked on Adventure Time, which I really don't know too much about because I usually don't watch it with them. When my daughter saw this she wanted it as soon as it came out because apparantly they don't show Fionna & Cake with Finn & Jake. From what I gather they are from two different worlds so the Fionna & Cake episodes do not play all the time and only Fionna & Cake only appear in their own episodes. When I bought the dvd I thought it was going to be all Fionna & Cake episodes and didn't realize til afterwards that I think there are only 2 fionna & cake episodes 1. Fionna & Cake, #8. What Was Missing. There is also a special feature titled "Little Did You Know" which unfortunately I can't say what is about because it is a gift that my daughter is getting for Easter. I wouldn't go by the some of the terrible ratings of disgruntled viewers who want the full season on dvd. From a kids point of view I think they will love it. It has episodes from season's 2, 3 & 4.Episodes:1 Fionna and Cake2 Storytelling3 The Other Tarts4The Silent King5 Death In Bloom6 Still7 Wizard8 What Was Missing9 From Bad To Worse10 Marceline's Closet11 Ghost Princess12 Incendium13 Card Wars14 Princess Cookie15 You Made Me16 Lady & PeeblesPlus special feature "Little Did You Know"So for under $12 I wouldn't be complaining. If they don't have full seasons out yet at least this has from seasons 2, 3 & 4. So all in all I think a good buy for Adventure Time fans.

Jovial Time
I understand that this is a kid's cartoon, but the Adventure Time series is a guilty pleasure of mine because many of the episodes convey an adventuresome and happy vibe. This show provides a refreshing change of positive programming. I own some of the other Adventure Time collections and preferred to check out "Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake" out of curiosity on how many Fiona themed episodes are included in the dvd. The good thing about this dvd is that there are sixteen quality episodes compiled along with the special feature of "Little Did You Know." My only issue with this dvd is that there was only one "Fionna and Cake" themed episode instead of at least 2-4 out of the 16 selected episodes. Additionally, this dvd is more for those who really enjoy this cartoon series due to the fact that it is not a full season collection dvd. Aside from these caveats, "Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake" is a great selection for those who like to watch cheerful shows.

My son and I love Adventure Time
I've read a lot of bad reviews because cartoon network hasn't released more full seasons, but that actually doesn't bother me at all. I have "My two favorite people" and "Fiona and Cake," and what I like best about them is that they were really inexpensive compared to the full seasons. I'm not saying CN shouldn't offer more full seasons, but it's nice to have these dvds as a choice as well. Plus they have a nice variety of episodes.My son is 1 year old and absolutely LOVES adventure time! I have no idea why, but it's the only cartoon/show/movie he will actually watch. Good thing its strange enough that I like it too. I'll be buying more of these in the future!

A great collection
I know a lot of you are mad about how they wont released seasons until they made like 3 of these random collections. I would say I am upset by that too. However I think these are nice little dvds to hold us over. They are pretty cheap and are still enjoyable to watch. The alternative is to wait a year or more for the next season to come out and if you want stuff from the fourth season you will have to wait a few years.I think these little dvds are a nice value and you will probably watch it more then enough times before the next season comes out. My recommendation is to get this only if you are a big fan of the show other wise you can probably wait till the seasons come out.

Current Favorite of the Grab Bag DVDs!
I know, everyone hates the "grab bag" style releases that Cartoon Network has been putting out. And yes, they are bunk. The full seasons should (and will be) available easily, and it sucks having these little teasers.We get it.But for those of us neurotic enough to want all of the Adventure Time they can get, this is a really good, inexpensive treat. The selection of episodes is really solid, and I personally think it was worth the price. Besides, when the full seasons are out, I'm fairly certain I know someone who would be more than happy to accept hand-me-down goodness.

It's not all Fionna and Cake Episodes
I found the cover and title very misleading... I had bought the product thinking that it contained Fionna and Cake episodes only, but once I got to the second episode I realized it was just regular episodes and only one Fionna and Cake episode. The only reason I didn't rate this one star is because I still liked the episodes on it, they picked a good bunch. If you wanted Fionna and Cake stuff you're better off with the comics.

Another great collection of Adventure Time videos... but the full season releases are superior
Being a big Adventure Time fan family, we buy almost everything Adventure Time related that comes out, so this release was no exception. As with previous "vanilla" releases, you're getting DVD-quality versions of the episodes, and they're a mixture of Season Three with a bit of Season Four, and overall they're a good choice of episodes.If you're looking for something more canonical, then definitely wait for the (assumed) Adventure Time Season Two Complete, which will not only have all the episodes in order from that season, but also the excellent commentary and extras that really add to the enjoyment of the episodes.
