List of episodes
"Bad Jubies" is the twentieth episode of the seventh season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. The episode was written, storyboarded, and directed by Kirsten Lepore, and filmed entirely via stop motion. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on January 14, 2016. The episode guest stars Kevin Michael Richardson as both a sentient storm and an automated weather alert system.
The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers that allow him to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, a deadly storm hits the grasslands, forcing Finn, Jake, BMO (voiced by Niki Yang), and Lumpy Space Princess (voiced by Pendleton Ward) to build a bunker. In the end, Jake begins beat boxing using nature sounds he has collected, which calms the storm.
"Bad Jubies" is the fourth guest-animated episode of Adventure Time, after season five's "A Glitch Is a Glitch", and season six's "Food Chain" and "Water Park Prank". Lepore was approached about directing the episode after Adventure Time showrunner Adam Muto saw her CalArts MFA thesis film, entitled "Move Mountain". The episode took roughly one year to make and was animated by Bix Pix Entertainment. "Bad Jubies" was met with positive critical reception, and upon its debut was viewed by 1.22 million people. Jason Kolowski, the episode's production designer, later won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation at the 68th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards in 2016. In early 2017, the episode itself won an Annie Award for Best Animated TV/Broadcast Production for Children's Audience.
