Fionna and Cake is based on gender-swapped (and also species-swapped, for the cat) versions of Finn and Jake the Dog, the main heroes featured in select episodes of Adventure Time. The new show follows these characters as they travel the multiverse alongside the Ice King, being hunted by a villain who wants to erase them from existence.

So you can expect the same comical adventures of Adventure Time, a classic cartoon fixture, but with new characters and situations to explore.

If that's for you, here's how to watch Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake online.

We're sorry to say that there's no official release date for Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake in the UK, and it's likely going to have a delayed release outside of the US.

When it does release, it'll likely come to Sky TV. All 10 seasons of Adventure Time are on the platform, as well as the previous spin-off Distant Lands, so it seems likely that this is where Fionna and Cake will see a permanent home. Unfortunately we can't say that for certain just yet though, and a release date is also unknown.
