There, BMO crashes his ship into the middle of a turf war between two of The Drift’s communities, the Great Elves and Shell People. It’s a self-contained city floating in the cosmos, sustaining life with questionable - and often faulty - energy sources. The Drift is nothing exceptional - it’s like every classic sci-fi conceivement of a civilization living in outer space. Olive has plans of her own and launches BMO’s ship on a detour to The Drift, where BMO meets his second friend, a bunny named Y4. He instantly befriends the eyeball and names her Olive.

So when BMO ventures outside of his rocket ship to patch a fracture and meets a shape-shifting green eyeball, it’s like a sigh of relief. All he really realizes is that he’s lonely. It’s unclear if BMO has a grasp on his potential immortality.

It’s a terrifying concept for a kids’ show, but Adventure Time has never shied away from soul-searching, a quality that has always made this series so wonderfully complex and bittersweet. I suppose when you’re a robot, you’re essentially an immortal being as long as you stay charged and avoid water. I can’t help but think about the Adventure Time series finale, when we learned that BMO survived years past Finn’s and Jake’s deaths, living for so long that he forgot his best friends’ names. It’s a remarkably sad picture despite the whimsical premise. BMO talks to his alter-ego Football about needing new “interesting” friends and writes melancholic country songs dedicated to his cowboy hat to pass the time. The first Distant Lands chapter to grace HBO’s latest streaming platform is titled after BMO himself, exploring the robot’s past as he wanders through the lonely expanses of outer space, tasked by Moe with the humble mission of terraforming Mars with potatoes. Nearly two years after the series finale, the beloved Cartoon Network series is back again with Distant Lands: Four stand-alone episodes, each about an hour long, will premiere on the new streaming platform over the next two years. And now he’s leading Adventure Time’s HBO Max revival.
BMO might not be big enough to wield a sword (he’s as tall as an average newborn), but that hardly matters, because, cheesy as it sounds, he’s got something way better than brute strength: a hero’s heart, overflowing with spunky confidence and imagination.
After watching Finn the Human and Jake the Dog slay monsters, hunt vampires, and rescue princesses for ten whole seasons, BMO might have seemed like a curious choice of hero for Adventure Time’s swan song.Ĭurious - but definitely not surprising. The last time we saw BMO save the world was in Adventure Time’s series finale, when the sweet robot defeated Glob’s chaotic, world-shattering strength by singing a simple song.
