The first-ever stop-motion animated episode of Pen Ward’s Adventure Time will premiere on Cartoon Network this Thursday, January 14 at 7:30 p.m. (ET/PT) as part of a full week of all-new tales from the Land of Ooo.
Titled “Bad Jubies,” the stop-mo episode is guest directed by Kirsten Lepore, who has earned top animation prizes the world over with shorts Sweet Dreams and Bottle.
