"Is That You?" is the nineteenth episode of the sixth season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. The episode was written and storyboarded by Jesse Moynihan, from an outline by Pendleton Ward, Adam Muto, Kent Osborne, and Jack Pendarvis. The episode debuted on November 25, 2014, the second episode to air as part of Cartoon Network's "Corn-Ooo-Copia", a week of new Adventure Time episodes. It guest stars both Kumail Nanjiani as Prismo and Ron Perlman as The Lich.
The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, Jake begins acting strangely following a memorial service for Prismo. Finn soon realizes that the real Jake has been transported into Prismo's alternate dimension. After recreating the elaborate ritual that triggered the events, Finn is also transported to the dimension, wherein he runs into a program of Prismo. This program explains an elaborate plan that will allow Prismo to be resurrected. Both Finn and Jake follow Prismo's instructions, and are successful in reviving their friend.
The episode was the second installment of the series to have been solo-storyboarded by Moynihan. On his personal website, he wrote that this was the episode that started to wear down his mental defenses, which resulted in some of his best and "weirdest" writing in the latter half of the show's sixth season. The episode, which received largely positive reviews from both The Atlantic and The A.V. Club, was viewed by 1.76 million viewers.
