Kurt, I can't see the GIF either. This is an every-week thing for me, and the problem is that the GIF is hosted on a site that's on my employer's "banned" list. I don't know if that's Cecile's problem as well.

Yes indeed, Mike. Some of the most recent episodes were wildly psychedelic and blasted my mind wide open. Over time the show becomes much more mature. Finn has grown up as the kid voicing him has grown up. In most cartoons, nobody ages.
