#remember: execs probably did not properly predict how much excitement this show would bring

i do understand the idea that betty was kind of robbed of more complexities than just "girl who was obsessed with her boyfriend and didnt treat herself well bc of it" & i do understand the idea that the conclusion to simons arc was halfbaked. i genuinely cant really explain it, but i do agree there were a lot of complexities ignored ab both of those things, but also, like, idk. i feel like simon & bettys relationship has not really been explored to the extent of it's complexities... erm... Ever? the closest theyve gotten is temple of mars, and well, the ending of that episode is not especially uplifting. i think this fell within my realm of expectations, not to say people who had higher expectations are wrong of course. which is why i can pretty confidently say i liked the finale. it gave me what i wanted, for the most part, as a long term fan of adventure time. i will always agree though that shows like this deserve more episodes than theyre given, which is hardly the fault of the writers and animators behind the show.
