Adventure Time: Side Quests Drops All 20 Episodes on Disney+ and Hulu

This short-form nostalgia series reunites most original cast members, recasts Finn to portray a younger version, establishes a U.S.-first streaming launch before an October international rollout.

Overview

  • The series released all 20 episodes in the United States on Monday, June 29, with the full season available on both Disney+ and Hulu and accessible only to subscribers.
  • Each episode runs about 11 minutes, reflecting a short-form format aimed at quick, self-contained stories rather than long serialized arcs.
  • Sasha Knight debuts as the younger-sounding Finn while John DiMaggio and most principal original cast members return to their roles, and creators say the show is set during Finn and Jake’s early, pre‑lore years.
  • Early coverage of the first episodes has been favorable, with reviewers noting the show recaptures the original series’ playful, episodic tone without introducing major new canon.
  • International viewers must wait for the October 5, 2026 debut on Cartoon Network and HBO Max, a staggered rollout that positions the U.S. streaming window as the primary launch and could shape fan response and future franchise plans.
