GC13 discusses the OK K.O.! episode  You Get Me (Wally the White’s episode!) K.O. (spoiler alert) proves himself to be both a go-getter and an Enid-getter, and Dendy accepts that she ‘s not adept as emotional issues (but still does her best analyzing more practical problems!). Really though, as a wizard you’d think Wally would be more wary of strong people who might have just voi...

GC13 and David discuss the twenty-eighth issue of the current comic book series , and the end of this adventure of Lars and the Off Colors (and Stevonnie too!). Obviously as the discussion of the end of the four-issue adventure this episode will contain a lot of spoilers, but you’re probably either current with the series or okay with spoilers, aren’t you? That’s all the story ar...

GC13 and David discuss the Craig of the Creek episode  Escape From Family Dinner . Familiar, why is this so familiar? Get your favorite dad joke ready, because Duane’s bringing the heat. The steaks couldn’t be hotter. Also, please press F to pay respects to J.P.’s phone. This episode of the podcast (should have been) sponsored by Tombstone Pizza.

GC13 and David discuss the OK K.O.! episode  I Am Dendy , the first appearance of everyone’s favorite kappa. Dendy is a darling right from the start, and we know she becomes a great friend, but let’s not pretend that she doesn’t have a… Practical streak in her first introduction. Thankfully she was able to make it up to Mr. Logic, then not kill him afterwards. Let’s a...

GC13 and David discuss the Craig of the Creek episode  Sunday Clothes , the best way to wear your Sunday clothes on a Saturday. We don’t know exactly how old J.P. and the gang are, and we don’t know who Kit sells the golf balls she trades for to, but we know that Kelsey is a master of the sword. J.P. also has a wonderful, supportive sister, even if it stinks that she has to work on Sat...

GC13 and David discuss the newest Steven Universe graphic novel: Camp Pining Play. Peridot and Lapis decide to do a fan play of a Camp Pining Hearts fan fiction (made by none other than Lars), and shenanigans ensue. Can you imagine an episode summary more appropriate for an upcoming season six? In summary, Pearl is the best Paulette because she is the best, and where did Steven learn to roast hamb...

GC13 and David discuss the twenty-seventh issue of the current comic book series . Steven and Connie are investigating, and more dream stuff is happening. Of course some of the Off-Colors are doing better than others. We continue to be rooting for Padparadscha facing (and handling so well!) a realization about herself, though we’re still not sure that’s what’s happening. What is...

GC13 and David discuss the OK K.O.! episode  Sibling Rivalry , the debut of Raymond and the origin of the term “pompadork”. While it might not actually be the most important episode to the lore of OK K.O.! (all jokes aside), it’s still a good look at the dark side of life at Boxmore. If life at Boxmore even has a bright side. It also has a “nothing but net” joke that...

GC13 and David discuss the episode  Wildernessa from Craig of the Creek—a good episode that is named for a good character as well. Setting aside just what gave Cheesesticks the super size and strength necessary to give rides to children (seriously, he’s like a bear to them), he’s still the ideal companion animal for Wildernessa. Wildernessa is also the druid that the Creek deserves. Wi...

GC13 and David discuss  We Messed Up , the OK K.O.! episode featuring the disappointment cannon and the first use of the vague flashback. The bodega knaves are pretty wascally, and while Mr. Gar is keen to get back to his office he’s not above a bit of distraction. Carol also takes things in stride, if for no other reason than to take a cute picture of her son. And to save him and his friend...

GC13 and David discuss the five fusion stories contained within Fusion Frenzy #1 . Awesome Stevonnie outfit? Check. Garnet backstory? Check. Smoky Quartz angst? Check. Opal? Check. Thoughtful discussions about Sugilite? Check. Comics are the one place where fusions can run free, never having to worry about royalty checks to their voice actresses, so we’re glad to have received Fusion Frenzy...

GC13 and David discuss the twenty-sixth issue of the comic book series , continuing with the peril that Lars and his crew have found themselves in. There’s less Emerald than last time, and Parparadscha is mostly back to “normal”, but things are getting serious in other ways. There’s a strong guest appearance, and definitely a strong hook to next month’s issue. Maybe t...

GC13 and David discuss the Craig of the Creek episode  The Final Book . Introducing more kids, some for the first time and some for the only time. Also the first appearance of the Trials of Trebulon. And alas poor “Fart” sticker, we never knew you. Also, “Justice Bro” is only slightly less generic than “Super Bro”.

GC13 and David discuss the OK K.O.! episode  You’re Everybody’s Sidekick . Despite the art style still not being where it would later end up, and the characters still being in their early stages, it’s a great episode. We learn so much about the Plaza and are introduced to (and see again) some great plazoids. Who said you need a proper villain to have a good episode. All you need...

GC13 and David discuss the twenty-fifth issue of the comic book series , featuring Lars of the Stars and his Off Color crew. It has Captain Lars, it has Emerald, what more could you ask for? It even has something lots of you knew you wanted: Padparadscha being able to interact with others like an ordinary character! We don’t know what mess Captain Lars has found himself in yet, but we do kno...

GC13 and David discuss Steven Universe alumni Matt Burnett’s and Ben Levin’s series, Craig of the Creek. These Steven Universe alumni can’t help but put story arcs into their shows. Will the creek be invaded by nefarious no-gooders? Can the vulture be tamed? As for potential crossovers between Steven Universe and Craig of the Creek, we’re lobbying for the Big Pinchy song to...

GC13 and David discuss a show we’ll be covering a bit of while we wait for more Steven Universe: OK K.O.! The show has come a long way from back when it was just the  Lakewood Plaza Turbo pilot, created around the same time as the Steven Universe pilot. It may have taken a while to be made, but at least it was! It can be very meta, but it also develops its characters well and keeps them in-u...

GC13 discusses the twenty-fourth issue of the current comic series. Now here’s an issue of the comic that would make for a good minisode: show us that grove in beautiful animated form, complete with a wonderful soundtrack. Also, surprisingly enough, maybe a time where keeping the fusions on the bench was for the best. It may be the last slice-of-life comic we get for a while. Did you have fu...

GC13 and Isabelle discuss a few things that were missed about  Change Your Mind the first time the episode was discussed . This is a time to discuss happier things, like the ending—wasn’t that sweet? Or Lars finally getting back to Sadie. Wasn’t it great to see him make it to her big Beach City concert after all? Of course there are less happy questions, like what broke Pink Pearl&#821...

GC13, Isabelle, Sophia, and David discuss the 44-minute episode  Change Your Mind . Wow. Just wow. The episode definitely feels like a series finale (though we have official word that more Steven Universe is on the way, even after the movie ), and so it worked in a lot of stuff. If there’s anything to complain about, it’s that a single episode resolved plot threads that could easily ha...

GC13, Isabelle, and David wonder what’s coming up in the hour-long special  Change Your Mind . The trailer, while filled with what many would consider to be spoilers, actually doesn’t give us much to go on. It does what a great trailer does: greatly intrigues without giving much away. We can’t even be sure who’s going to change their mind by the end of the episode, but we h...

GC13 and Sophia discuss  Escapism . It was definitely a polarizing episode among the fandom, but even within one person it can still bring such conflicting emotions: so much to wonder about, yet perhaps not one’s cup of tea? That said,  Escapism is certainly Foreshadowing: The Episode. Watch it and you’ll see what surely must be concepts that will play out next week when the one-hour s...

GC13, Isabelle, Sophia, and David discuss  Together Alone . Pay no attention to the Pearl behind the curtain, just focus on the excellent voicework going into differentiating our Pearl from Blue Pearl and White Pearl. Also all of the tension of the disaster everyone knows is coming being partially offset with more funny jokes. Speaking of which—Connie: nobody knows what you and Steven were expecti...

GC13 and Sophia discuss the second episode of Diamond Days (and the first that wasn’t on the app before):  Familiar . Getting some time on Homeworld brings the show back to old form, giving us interesting stuff to wonder about. Gems in walls, Steven’s ability to give life to melons and pebbles, and what an original Diamond outfit design made just for Steven could look like. And, of cou...

GC13 and Isabelle discuss  Legs From Here to Homeworld , fresh from the app to the world of television, and the promos for the upcoming Diamond Days episodes. With a lot of discussion of the promos this episode is rather spoilertastic—it spoils as much as commercials and press releases can, at least. As far as  Legs From Here to Homeworld is concerned though, opinions have changed a bit ever since...
