What began as an animated show tailored for young viewers quickly morphed into a cultural phenomenon that managed to attract a dedicated audience of all ages. Adventure Time follows Finn the Human and his adopted brother Jake the Dog on their adventures in the mystical Land of Ooo. The first season of the fantasy series premiered on Cartoon Network in the spring of 2010. It garnered positive reviews and a loyal fanbase, making the now iconic animated series a ratings darling for the network and setting the stage for 10 whole seasons. The show’s folio may be extensive, but its entertaining content is well worth catching up on. Here’s how to watch Adventure Time online.

All episodes of Adventure Time are prepped and ready for streaming on Hulu. The animated series is one among many popular titles in the platform’s extensive streaming library. For unfettered access to Hulu’s library, just sign up for their monthly subscription plan and get a full month free. Once the trial ends, you can cancel for no cost or choose to continue the subscription for just $6 per month. Or you could opt for Hulu’s $12 per month subscription plan instead, which boats ad-free streaming of the same content. In either case, all 10 seasons of Adventure Time are readily available for streaming on Hulu.

HBO Max also houses all 1o seasons of Adventure Time. Like Hulu, the streaming platform offers a free trial period for users to watch shows like Adventure Time and vet the service for themselves. Sadly, unlike Hulu, HBO Max’s free trial period lasts only 7 days as opposed to Hulu’s 30. Regardless, HBO Max offers its own impressive streaming library, and its weeklong free trial subscription may just be enough to convince patrons to invest in the $15 per month subscription plan. Plus, if you get hooked on Adventure Time, you’re going to need to extend the subscription plan to get through its sizable back-catalog.

Although the series premiered its finale in 2018, Cartoon Network has since announced four new upcoming specials. Collectively entitled Adventure Time: Distant Lands, they are set to air exclusively on HBO Max in 2020. So, once your binge or rewatch inevitably comes to an end, you will have brand new content to look forward to in no time.

YouTube is reworking the Home page with Custom Feeds and quicker access to Subscriptions

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.

EXCLUSIVE: How Klara and the Sun warns of a future where humans compete with AI
What Does Klara and the Sun Say About the Dangers of AI?
Jenna Ortega stars in Klara and the Sun.

Artificial intelligence has already changed people's lives, both at home and at work, but what happens when people start treating AI as a replacement for their loved ones? Filmmaker Taika Waititi explores this terrifying idea with his new sci-fi movie, Klara and the Sun. Based on the novel by Kazuo Ishiguro, the film follows Klara, a solar-powered "Artificial Friend" played by Jenna Ortega, as she bonds with Josie, a sick teenager.

Klara and the Sun paints an unusual, unsettling portrait of a world with AI. Essentially The Wizard of Oz meets Blade Runner, Waititi's dystopian film is filled with his brand of vibrant visuals and quirky humor. But beneath all that, the film tells a deeper, more serious story about AI and whether it can cause the downfall of society and human connection.

Spotify has kicked 50 million AI slop tracks out of your recommendations
Spotify is cleaning up your music recommendations, and AI-generated spam is finally getting the boot.

Finding new music on Spotify is one of those little joys that can turn an ordinary day around. You play a song you love, let the recommendations take over, and occasionally stumble upon an artist you wish you’d discovered sooner. But with AI making it ridiculously easy to produce music in bulk, not everything landing in your recommendations deserves a listen.

Spotify knows this is becoming a problem, and it’s acting on it. The streaming giant has revealed it filtered more than 50 million spammy, low-quality tracks from its recommendations this year. That’s on top of another 75 million tracks it has completely removed from the platform for repeatedly or seriously breaking its rules. And Spotify isn’t stopping there — it wants to make sure actual artists aren’t buried under an endless stream of AI-generated content.
