Finn, a silly kid with an awesome hat and Jake, a brassy dog with a big kind heart, depend on each other through thick and thin. Join Jake the Dog and Finn the Human as they embark on a set of all new adventures in the seventh season.
As season seven unfolds, major changes are in store for some of the inhabitants of Candy Kingdom.

Marceline decides she no longer wants to be a vampire and asks Princess Bubblegum to help her get rid of her vampiric essence. Her quest to become mortal sets off a series of events that are captured in the eight-part “Stakes” story arc. The animated adventure series, created by Pendleton Ward and produced at Cartoon Network Studios, is in production on its final season.

Written and directed by Sandra L. Martin and produced by Isaac Alongi, the drama tells the story of Rees Donahue (Rothe), a young, aspiring writer from Chicago. She’s spent her whole life working hard to avoid working; living the life everyone wishes they had. Until she discovers the secret that forces her to choose between the predestined life that she knows so well and what appears to be the destiny her mother wanted her to have. She’s lured into betraying her father and chasing after a life she dreams is better than the one she already has. When Reese returns home with nothing but regret, the forgiveness of her father teaches her what it means to love.
