Lists about the 2010 animated series that follows a boy named Jake, his magical dog Finn, and their friends and neighbors in the colorful post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo.

Adventure Time&nbsp;quickly became a Cartoon Network hit thanks to its&nbsp;fun, quirky, and often optimistic world view.&nbsp;&nbsp;But as the show has grown over the seasons, things have definitely matured. The writers have introduced plenty of adult themes and a few strangely dark moments.&nbsp;Some of the darkest, violent&nbsp;Adventure Time scenes lie among&nbsp;the mathematical&nbsp;action sequences and sassy humor. And things cdo get dark. Really dark.

In a post-apocalyptic world filled with candy princesses, princess-stealing kings (complete with magical ice powers), <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-adventure-time-lemongrab-episodes/molly-gander" target="_blank">screaming sociopathic lemon people</a>, and rock n&#39; roll vampires, the planet&#39;s last human, who just so happens to be a twelve-year-old boy, and his shape-shifting dog protect their kingdom against all sorts of evil-doers. Each eleven minute long <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-adventure-time-episodes/reference" target="_blank">episode of Adventure Time</a>&nbsp;is filled with multicolored shenanigans and is jam-packed with rouge-like RPG innuendos.

Pendleton Ward&#39;s psychedelic creation has sparked a huge following and touches on intellectual subjects aimed at adults and kids alike. Although the show has been going strong since its Cartoon Network debut in 2010, Adventure Time&#39;s next season will be its last. Keep reading to see some of the best Adventure Time scenes, including some that get pretty dark pretty quickly.&nbsp;

Funny

Adventure Time is a bright and colorful cartoon that&#39;s a captivating thrill-ride for anyone who joins Finn and Jake on their Candy Kingdom quests. It&#39;s also got some pretty <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/adult-dexters-laboratory-jokes/cehudspeth" target="_blank">dirty jokes</a> for a kids&#39;&nbsp;cartoon. While the characters the two protagonists&nbsp;encounter on their journeys&nbsp;might seem&nbsp;charming and innocent enough, the adult jokes in Adventure Time will sneak up on you and make you think twice about how much of a children&#39;s show it really is. Filled to the brim with both silly antics and grown-up humor, Adventure Time is a cartoon that provides fun for the whole family, not just the little ones.

<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/dirty-jokes-in-ed-edd-n-eddy/cehudspeth" target="_blank">Dirty jokes in cartoons</a> are typically pretty low-key, since they need to fly over the heads of their younger audiences, so some of the&nbsp;Adventure Time adult jokes are pretty easy to miss. But just because&nbsp;a&nbsp;little kid can&#39;t appreciate the&nbsp;adult humor in Adventure Time, doesn&#39;t mean that you can&#39;t!

Here are the funniest Adventure Time memes and quotes of all time.

Some of the Adventure Time memes on this list are actual quotes from the show, while other incorporate more mainstream memes into the show's characters.

Animated Characters

There are plenty of great <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/insane-fan-theories-about-adventure-time/jordan-love" target="_blank">Adventure Time fan theories</a>, but few are more titillating than the supposed lesbian relationship between Princess Bonnibel Bubblegum&nbsp;and Marceline Abadeer the Vampire Queen. They&nbsp;could very easily join the list of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/secretly-gay-disney-villains/katherine-ripley" target="_blank">gay cartoon stars</a>, according to some fans, and it wouldn't be much of a surprise if they did.&nbsp;Princess Bubblegum and Marceline's&nbsp;relationship, also referred to as Bubbline,&nbsp;has a lot of evidence suggesting that is so much more than a mere platonic bond. And while there is no shortage of Adventure Time LGBTQ subtext, there are times when&nbsp;it seems downright obvious that the two are gay. It would be more than refreshing if they were able to acknowledge their love unequivocally, once and for all.

Cartoon Network&#39;s&nbsp;Adventure Time&nbsp;is a seemingly simple toon with a surprisingly complex backstory and layered characters.

Vote up the small details that make you say, &quot;That&#39;s ba-nay-nay!&quot;&nbsp;

Lemongrab, voiced by the incomparable Justin Roiland, was accidentally created by Princess Bubblegum when one of her experiments goes terribly wrong. The result is an obnoxious, high-strung, power-hungry creature who was capable of usurping the throne when PB de-aged herself. He becomes <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-dastardly-villains-on-adventure-time/crystal-brackett" target="_blank">a minor villain in the series</a> and even turns the Candy Kingdom into a totalitarian state. See what other kinds of misadventures he got into by checking out the best Lemongrab episodes of&nbsp;Adventure Time.&nbsp;In &quot;You Made Me,&quot; Lemongrab is caught spying on the people of the Candy Kingdom, so our heroes give him three prisoners to watch in his own castle. When that doesn't work out too well, they decide to create a second Lemongrab to keep him company, and those two create numerous lemon people over the years they reign. In &quot;Too Old,&quot; it's revealed that Lemongrab has begun to eat Lemongrab 2 and has become hurtful toward his clone. He's a supremely dysfunctional character but one who's so off-putting, you can't help but see what he gets into next.&nbsp;The best episodes with Lemongrab in all&nbsp;Adventure Time&nbsp;seasons have been collected here on one list. Which episode will rule over the others? Which ones are doomed to reside in Lemongrab's stomach? That's up to you to decide.&nbsp;

As great as Finn and Jake are, many fans love Fionna and Cake episodes the best. Few shows would regularly feature <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-alternate-universe-episodes/molly-gander" target="_blank">alternate reality episodes</a> featuring gender-swapped characters all of the fans already know and love. Fortunately,&nbsp;Adventure Time&nbsp;isn't like most shows. In the third season, fans were introduced to Fionna The Human and Cake The Cat, female versions of Finn The Human and Jake The Dog. Their adventures were completely separate from the main storyline, but fans loved them just the same. Their debut episode would go on to become the most-watched episode of the series by that point. It's time to show some love for these brave warriors by ranking the best Fionna and Cake episodes of&nbsp;Adventure Time&nbsp;ever made.&nbsp;In their introductory episode, Fionna gets asked to the ball by Prince Gumball, but their plans get thrown into turmoil when the Ice Queen makes an unexpected appearance. In future episodes, a framing device would be introduced into the plot - usually as some kind of fan fiction, and often written by the Ice King - which tell of adventures that include a fresh perspective on the World of Ooo and the characters fans know and love.All the episodes with Fionna and Cake from&nbsp;Adventure Time&nbsp;are included here. Vote for the ones <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/things-you-wish-you-were-better-at/lauren-slocum?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">you wish you</a> had written as fan fiction yourself.&nbsp;
