In the newest Adventure Time spin-off Fionna and Cake, a popular theory involving Jake's wish to Prismo The Wishmaster was seemingly debunked by the last two episodes and a new interview from showrunner Adam Muto.
To quickly give context to those unfamiliar with the original Adventure Time cartoon series, the show's villain, The Lich, had the singular goal of killing all life. To accomplish this feat, he sought out a cosmic being named Prismo to grant him a wish: "The extinction of all life."
After tricking the show's protagonists, Finn and Jake, into helping him open a portal to Prismo's Time Room, The Lich got what he wanted from the Wishmaster and disappeared. Thankfully, the two followed him through the portal, allowing them an opportunity to undo The Lich's wish, with Jake succeeding.

The horror genre thrives upon cautionary tales where arrogant individuals believe that they can outsmart some supernatural force for their own gain. It’s for this reason that the greed-quenching Djinn and parables where people learn to be careful what they wish for, usually in the most morbid ways possible, are popular horror tropes. Djinn are a fascinating concept, but they’ve struggled to truly make their mark in cinema between largely-forgettable films like Jinn, The Djinn, Wish Upon, and even George Miller’s Three Thousand Years of Longing. But Djinn stories can still be fun and effective in the right context. And Robert Kurtzman’s Wishmaster is still the premier djinn horror film over 25 years later.
Wishmaster is a movie that understands the unabashed joys of a big, dumb plot where there’s a giant magical gemstone that’s the key to the Djinn’s powers because why the hell not?...

Following Adventure Time‘s conclusion in 2018, some storytelling doors were left wide open. One unexplored idea was the multiverse, which existed in the canon long before the modern era of TV and film had multiverse mania. In the latest At limited series, Fionna and Cake, that long-awaited promise die-hard fans anticipated is finally fulfilled thanks to the canonical gender-swapped characters. And it all happens in a bold new dimension unlike any Adventure Time series to date.
Much of the original show’s audience was around pre-teen to teenage ages. Those fans are now in their 20s, experiencing new adult emotions like depression and dissatisfaction that didn’t spin through their minds as children. That all corresponds directly to Fionna Campbell (Madeleine Martin), a Bridget Jones-esque young woman living in a small studio apartment in a non-magical, metropolitan town where many notable Ooo residents are human like her best friends...

The power of a wish is an extraordinary thing. For some, it will push them to achieve greatness in their work or their personal life. For others, it’s your heart’s desire being fulfilled at long last. And for these two supernatural beings, wishes can be the ultimate weapon.
First up, this bad dude shows us that evil can come in small packages. He’s Irish every day of the year, but the Leprechaun is not someone you want to stumble across on St. Patrick’s Day. He has a penchant for hoarding his gold and woe be anyone that thinks about taking it. If you go after his gold, he’ll bust out his lucky charms to make you regret it in all sorts of ways. Jennifer Aniston was able to escape his grasp and acquire quite a bit of gold herself, but not many others can say the same.
