Ah, character episodes. You’d think they would be our bane, since we’re definitely in love with the lore of the show. The characters give meaning to the lore though, so we’re quite happy to see Jamie return (especially if we have an episode like Reformed coming up with a premise that implies some good chances for lore).
Steven Universe coming to Hulu Plus
Well, Hulu has some good news for us: all season-one episodes of Steven Universe (in addition to other Cartoon Network and Adult Swim shows) will be available to stream on Hulu Plus. This all starts on May 1, so if you’ve been looking to get some mileage out of your subscription to Hulu Plus then this should help you out (and give you a great reason to go back through the early episodes again).
It’s always good to see another place for Steven fans to check out old episodes. Happy watching!
Immediate reaction to Love Letters
As expected, there’s little lore in this episode. Still, come curious elements were mentioned, as well as a current project the Crystal Gems are undertaking which makes a lot of sense and so gives us some ideas about what might happen later in the season.
Of more immediate note, however: Mama Sadie!
Lapis Lazuli by Michael Lee Lunsford
Who could say no to more Lapis? Not us. (We’re still hoping that the Crystal Gems are admitting multiple members this season and Lapis makes it in.) Michael Lee Lunsford has the full-size version posted on Tumblr, so go and take a look!
What to expect from Love Letters
Another calm episode that looks like it’s more about the characters than the show’s overarching plot, that’s what you can expect. The commercials have actually revealed a lot about the episode, or so it would seem. All the summary says is that Steven and Connie help Jamie, and while the commercials seem to show what they’re not helping him with, it’s still an easy bet that it came by the title “Love Letters” honestly.
So yeah, let’s throw out a warm welcome for Love Letters and the rest of season two! It’s been a few weeks going through the backlog, so it’s time to get down to it. Definitely make sure to be there on the 23rd at 5:30 PM EDT.
New episode: Reformed will air on April 30, 2015
Do not panic. The omission of Pearl from the episode summary is likely completely innocuous. Do not be alarmed. Everything is going to be alright! You’ll see. On Thursday, April 30 at 5:30 PM everything will be completely fine!
Reformed
Steven, Amethyst and Garnet chase after a monster who has been loose in the temple.

GC13 (aka TheRealGC13), Dakota, and Hunter discuss the last season one episode to air, Shirt Club. With season one finally finished (and after only three season two episodes have aired), it is officially on.
It may have aired a bit out of order, but even if there’s some disagreement over how good the episode is, everyone’s glad we got Shirt Club. Having a bit more time with Mayor Dewey is especially enjoyed, as is the fact that Pearl (aka Bird Mom) seemed to have turned her stool into a perch.
Now that we have (most of) season two ahead of us, we can ask the tough questions: When will Greg go on tour to promote Water Witch? When will Steven’s birthday be? And when do we get to see Garnet and Pearl fuse!?!
Song of the week: Peedee’s Blues
Poor Steven. When he found out that Buck thought his drawing was bad, and that he wouldn’t stop making it into shirts, he felt awful. It didn’t help that the Crystal Gems wouldn’t solve the problem, either. Still, Steven persevered and made them all understand, putting smiles across the town’s faces. To commemorate his brief distress, Peedee’s Blues is this week’s song of the week.
