Steven Universe

[RaphAndDonnie]

For those who have watched it, what's your opinion on the new CN show "Steven Universe"? I wasn't really impressed by the promos but after finding out that Rebecca Sugar was making it I did some digging and got more interested in it. I ended up watching the pilot and really liked it. Garnet and Amethyst are my favorite of the Crystal Gems.

Wow, I was gonna just make a thread about this! :lol: Steven Universe rules. I agree, the promos made it look stupid and annoying, but I think this can be the new Adventure Time if it catches on. I wish CN would air the pilot on T.V. though, the only way of seeing it as of right now is online. As much as I don't like 15 minute "episodes" of shows, it's still good. And dat theme song man, dat theme song.

I love this show! I really can't wait to see more episodes!:D

For the longest time, I was somewhat apprehensive towards this show, because originally I was worried that the gems might be too powerful and that they would be something of a bad oc from a badly written fan fic. You know, the ones who are so immortal and omnipotent that they are just never impose by realism but this show is really good at handling powerful characters, because while they have the potential to do everything, the characters are individualize enough to do only certain things because those things are their talents and skills which helps to establish a team dynamic.

I was also a little apprehensive towards Steven because in a lesser show, things would have been handed to him on a silver platter and written off as "destiny". A lesser show would've been like "Isn't he so precious, LOVE HIM DAMNIT!" :x . And the best of it all, there is no half-blood whining or no "Eww, he's half human!" bs that you see thousand times.

and his father Greg would have been written as a total asshat man child like Peter Griffin, but he isn't because this show doesn't have chip on its shoulder. This show is so genuine and sincere. I love this show.

That being said, I am still on the fence towards Rose Quartz. My worst nightmare is to have Steven's mom being portray as this purity sue saint but I will give this show a benefit of the doubt since the writers have prove that they know what they are doing unlike some animated show on nickelodeon.

I think I heard/read from somewhere that this show's air time is being cut because of its marketability. Aside from the title character, every main protagonist is female, meaning the majority of the toys this show spawns would be of female characters - which boys aren't likely to want.

That might be total BS, I'm not sure; but I heard it somewhere.

As for my opinion, I've given this a go a few times, and I actually like it quite a lot. The only reason I don't watch it more is because I generally don't watch much TV (outside of Netflix). Thought it looked awful upon first seeing previews for it, but I gave it a chance and it's very well-done. Really unique set of characters and the originality is top-notch.

It's a little weird that that there a new episode everyday on spring break of this week.

I remember Adventure Time did something similar a while ago.

Do you think that maybe the people behind the show are trying appease the college kids crowd that might be the core audience of Steven Universe?

Ha! I didn't even think of that.

I also enjoy this show. It's so pretty.

:roll: I heard recently that Steven Universe was going to have a crossover with Uncle Grandpa. Yay...

Ugh, seriously? F*ck that...

Holy crap! That was a great hour long episode. Freaking knew that Garnet was a fusion. The show been hinting it since the Opal episode.

I am really in love with Ruby and Sapphire. I can see part of Garnet's feistiness coming from Ruby and a part of Garnet's stoicism coming from Sapphire but I would have thought that Sapphire would have a more stout look base on her silhouette from a past episode. Is Sapphire blind?

I'm slightly disappointed that Peridot wasn't the big bad but that means that we'll see more of her again. Speaking of Peridot, where did she go?

Also there was a comment made by Jasper about Amethyst? I think she said that she was overcooked? Or was it undercook?

This show is awesome.

[MisfitKraang]

I've been a fan of the show since day one! It's like so good and amazing!!! Best animated show on TV:D

[PangolinFeets]

I buy overpriced Steven Universe crap from the Cartoon Network store just to support the show.

[M.O.D.O.K.]

What the world needs is Garnet Gauntlets a la Hulk Hands.

[Cure]

The Uncle Grandpa episode was amazing.

[Candy Kappa]

I really like this show.

[TurtleTitan97]

I may not be a fan of Uncle Grandpa....but the newest episode was actually pretty funny.

[17thCenturySorcerer]

I personally liked it, it's a lot better than those lesser shows like Uncle Grandpa, Clarence, that other show... It has a good plot line and I think the characters are really developed.

[Allio]

Clarence is a great show. Shut up.



UG can be pretty enjoyable.

Am I the only one not surprised Garnet was a fusion?

Nope not at all!:P

[Lethal Lullaby]

I've recently binge watched the show as well and I've enjoyed it a lot. It's really cute, and I like the fight scenes. ^u^ Can't wait to see more.

[Mew]

Nope not at all!:P
Heh he....8)

[Gunpowder]

I actually enjoy every show on CN right now, aside from Uncle Grandpa which is only occasionally decent.
