I originally bought this for my son to watch, but have come to find myself flipping it on every once in a while too haha. It's a pretty great cartoon compared to most the other stuff of this era. But this is not the first season of episodes, rather a compilation of what produces thought were the best picks from the first and second seasons. I don't believe any of the three seasons have been released in the US as of yet, until then I already pre-ordered the night-o-sphere compilation.

"Adventure Time: My Two Favorite People" is a very well put together compilation of some of the best episodes from season one. I only wish that the creators would have already included all of the episodes from season one. On the positive side, there are 12 innovating and original Adventure Episodes contained, and the following is the listing for anyone still considering:
1) My Two Favorite People
2) Evicted!
3) Ricardo the Heart Guy
4) Trouble in Lumpy Space
5 Tree Trunks
6) Dungeon
7) The Pods
8) The Limit
9) Go With Me
10) The Eyes
11) The Chamber of Frozen Blades
12) To Cut a Woman's Hair
There is also a special feature of: Little Did You Know. My overall favorite episode in this collection is "The Pods". "The Pods" is a hilarious episode that involves Finn and Jake agreeing to take up a magic bean quest for one of the knights who makes his transition to another realm. Two of the beans are good, and one is very sinister. The plot gets very funny when each of the three beans sprouts out items that actually appear at first neutral. I want to disclose more details, but I prefer to keep in mind those who have yet to watch this episode. My only slight caveat with these series involves the "To Cut a Woman's Hair" episode. I respectfully say this because there is one character that is depicted as an ugly witch who happens to be evil, and wants hair. First off, beauty is subjective and in the eye of the beholder. This character fits the classic stereotype of only beautiful people being angelic and anyone plain-looking being mean. I say this because it is common knowledge that there are very attractive people in the world that are very mischievous and calculating. Then there are individuals who may fall outside of the conventional societal view of beauty, but have great compassion and kindness towards others around them. However, I still recommend this "Adventure Time" collection for anyone who has enjoyed watching any of the "Adventure Time" episodes on television and/or those who enjoy their cartoons with elements that contain hybrids of fantasy/adventure themes.

I haven't felt this way about an American animated show since Avatar: The Last Airbender. I think this show is really a masterpiece. The comedy is very imaginative, though you have to be able to appreciate the absurd, but there are also a lot of great character moments. I really like the dynamics between the main characters of Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, and Marceline. The stories have a lot of heart and make me feel good in a way that I don't really get from other shows.

This disc, as others have said, is pretty bare-bones. Half-episodes presented out of order, excerpted from both seasons 1 and 2. The video quality is decent, though the fact that is a DVD limits this in terms of detail and compression artifacts. It appears that the picture is somewhat over-sharpened to compensate, as there are ringing artifacts around edges. The only extra is a set of character facts about the main characters, most of which are obvious if you watch the show (though I think it also contains a mistake re: PB's age). Note also that the disc is finicky when I play it in my computer. Sometimes the disc doesn't load, sometimes it can't play certain parts. And I've tried it in two different optical drives, so I think it is due to how the disc was mastered.

I primarily bought this disc in order to show support for the series and encourage Cartoon Network to produce full series releases in both DVD and Blu-ray formats. I think this show would really shine on Blu-ray, as it is produced in 1080i resolution and the scenes contain a ton of small details that are blurred in the DVD release. The series also ought to be presented in episode order, as there are a lot of small details that can be gleaned from the backgrounds and plot points of each episode, which all together build up hints of the larger back-story to the series.

Get on this, Cartoon Network! I need me my Blu-ray releases!

Adventure Time is a great cartoon show which mixes a great style of art, with a teen comedy style. The DVD is great considering the fact it's Adventure Time! However it is not the first season, it's just twelve select episodes thrown into a disc. The special features are lacking, just a short paragraph bio for seven characters.

This DVD feels like it was just thrown together in ten seconds and pushed onto shelves. It's $10 though, at that price, and the fact it's Adventure Time, I'd say its well worth it for any fan. Since the story isn't really pinned down, this would be a great video to lend to friends. Maybe later on down the road CN will realize they could profit from putting the seasons on DVD. Until then; I'm just glad CN got off their high-horse and allowed them to push out a 'DVD'. Baby steps.

This DVD contains 12 individual episodes from Adventure Time, not in any particular order. It seems they just picked the 12 mos popular, as some are from season 1, while others are from the second season. The episodes themselves are great, but the DVD is rather bare-bones. No extras except a written character bio for the main players, and no previews except a commercial for Cartoon Network. It'd have been nicer if this had been a season 1 set, or even just a volume set like Flapjack, Chowder, Mystery Inc., and Looney Tunes got, with extras, but oh well. Maybe if this sells well enough, they'll release whole seasons. Anyway, for the price it's not too bad at all.
