Adventure Time's exactly the right show for that addiction. Most episodes aren't moving along some overarching plot, and don't neatly tie off and return to the status quo. They're like - that happened, it was fucked-up, you gotta deal with it. The show hardly goes three consecutive episodes without dipping into mortality salience or outright existential horror. And then what becomes crucially important two seasons later was a cutaway gag with the tiny elephant grandma.
To anyone who hasn't watched the show: there is an episode where the main characters are transformed into a bowl of soup and a runny egg (respectively) when they attempt to stop two wizards from going to Mars so they can kill God. It is titled "You Forgot Your Floaties."
Lemon guy : Aaaaaaaaaaaa
Oh right, the show's breakout character, a screeching narcissistic tyrant.
They were ahead of their time.
