New episodes to air starting on May 8, 2017

  • April 21, 2017

Cartoon Network has dropped a big promo online. This is a Get Hype trailer of the highest degree, like “What we really are” but with clips tantalizing enough to back it up.

Plus, if that’s not enough to hype you up, the date should: Monday, May 8, 2017. Seventeen days away. Re-runs are even resuming next week, as if that wasn’t enough reason to be excited.

Dare you see the trailer they are airing? It is below, if you wish to see it:

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 135: Gem Hunt

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter discuss an episode that it can be kind of hard to know how to feel about sometimes: Gem Hunt.

It’s an episode where important stuff happens, especially some crucial character building. However for whatever reason it just feels… Strange. It’s hard to place.

What’s easy to see, however, is how precious Pearl is in this episode. She is pearlfection incarnate, and is cute as can be. Which was your favorite Pearl line? It might be hard to pick just one.

That’s not to say that Connie wasn’t adorable as well, nor that Steven didn’t put in a good performance. There’s plenty of cute to go around.

Still no re-runs. 🙁

Official soundtrack to be released on June 2, 2017

  • April 13, 2017

Cartoon Network has finally heard one of our many cries: on June 2, we’ll be getting an official soundtrack release of some kind. This comes a day after they tweeted out a poll asking if people wanted one. (Obviously we were getting one anyway, but we appreciate their use of hype.)

We still don’t have any information about which songs will be included, though Aivi has tweeted that she and Surasshu remastered the tracks that will be in the release.

As of now there are only plans for a digital release, but if you’re interested in seeing Steven Universe get a vinyl soundtrack release Ms. Sugar has tweeted her request that you let Cartoon Network know what you want. 🙂

If you want to listen to a preview, they tweeted a bit of the opening theme.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 134: Greg the Babysitter

GC13 and Sophia are hungry for babies! It’s time to talk about Greg the Babysitter!

Greg starts his flashback with a marvelous song (which has Rose being about as adorable as is legally allowed on television), and while we don’t learn anything really weighty in the plot it’s great to see what Rose was like in her casual hours (when not waging war to defend the Earth).

Sour Cream was apparently Super Baby back as a child, with not only the best possible face and voice but the ability to crawl up tall objects while offscreen. Can his powers of chill defeat Greg’s laser-sharp focus?

No Steven Universe re-runs this week either, everybody. Maybe next week.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 133: Alone at Sea

  • April 3, 2017

GC13 and Sophia discuss Alone at Sea, the oh-so-heavy episode that starts out oh so light.

So of course the podcast starts out very heavy, discussing the very real-world relationship troubles that Lapis has been going through, and that Jasper brings back. This all happened because the ship was named the Misery—that has to be what did it.

Of course there are lighter things to discuss. GC13 and Sophia both hope that someone will explain the “What crackers go with caviar? Water crackers.” joke, because as it stands there is no satisfying explanation that makes the joke funny.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 132: Cartoon Network’s scheduling woes

GC13 is here with the intervention that Cartoon Network needs (when three shows can take up five sixths of the network’s week, something is terribly wrong).

Cartoon Network, as fans we just want one thing: more Steven Universe in the schedule. Surely it would be good for you too, as ratings have dropped by half during these troubles times. Variety is the spice of life, and people turn the TV off if they see an episode they just watched two days prior.

Things may be dark, but surely they will brighten up before too long: Save the Light will come out, and we still have an entire season to look forward to.
