Summer Camp Island’s Primordial Villains: The Striped Horse and Bearded Sheep in Season 5

Summer Camp Island used to be a series short on villains, but with season 5 we’ve finally met the Striped Horse and Bearded Sheep properly (after briefly seeing them back in The Soundhouse in season one). They’re… Not very nice people. Yes, Summer Camp Island is definitely nicer than the average show, but come on. “All shall be wrong in the world!”? That’s villain talk.

But what did the Striped Horse and Bearded Sheep come to Summer Camp Island to do in the first place? Well, it looks like they were just there to eat jelly, but when you look at what became of the jelly they were after, you start to think that there was more to it than that. Summer Camp Island isn’t giving up all of its mysteries in just season 5, but we can make some guesses about who these guys are.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 380: Barb and the Spotted Bears

GC13 and David discuss the Barb and the Spotted Bears arc from the fifth season of Summer Camp Island.

What starts out as a cute bedtime story (about putting spotted bears to bed, oddly enough) turns into a very important-feeling story about a pair of interlopers coming to the island to eat a jelly pool. With the spotted bears asleep on the job, the task of defending the island falls on Barb and her newly created elves.

And maybe, just maybe, there was a retcon involving the striped horse and bearded sheep. You be the judge.

Mildred, Emma, and Season 5 of Summer Camp Island

When Mildred was first brought up in the second season of Summer Camp Island, she was just a small part of one episode. When Emma had one of her books in the fourth season though, gears started turning in my head. Now that season 5 of Summer Camp Island has released, I see even more reasons to think that Emma is actually Mildred.

Summer Camp Island is playing a long game with Mildred, so we’re sure to see more of her story. Eventually though, I’m sure it will reveal that Susie’s sister has actually been with her for a long time.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 379: Cane Crazy and Flood, Sweat and Tears

GC13 and David discuss Cane Crazy and Flood, Sweat and Tears from Amphibia.

Anne is trapped in a frog world, and while we do have our cartoony fun (let’s stop and admire the craftmanship on this clock before we throw it at a monster), Anne is becoming part of a frog family as well.

It’s just that, with her warm-blooded body, she might not be the best roommate for a cold-blooded frog. Well, you learn lessons every day. Especially when you’re trapped in a frog world.

Cartoon Network November 2021 Ratings Report

November wasn’t as busy a month for Cartoon Network’s premiers as October was, but it’s still a lot busier than December will be.

We saw Cartoon Network premiers for Teen Titans Go, Jellystone, Total Dramarama, Victor and Valentino, and Apple and Onion, with a little bit of shuffling around in time slots just to keep things interesting.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 378: Witches Before Wizards

GC13, Soren, and David discuss Witches Before Wizards from The Owl House.

Right in the second episode The Owl House decides to rip off the chosen one bandaid. Not everything can be Fallout 2, we guess… It’s just as well, since Luz would have been a pretty bad bad girl chosen one.

So, whether we ever see a wizard again or not, I think we all learned a valuable lesson today: never trust a man in casual drapery. And maybe be suspicious whenever someone starts telling you exactly what you want to hear. Especially if he’s wearing casual drapery.

A Look at Summer Camp Island’s Season 5 Trailer

With new episodes just days away, it’s time to head back to Summer Camp Island. A trailer recently released and, combined with title cards for the story arcs, it’s time to look ahead and see what Summer Camp Island’s fifth season will bring us.

Are you excited for season five of Summer Camp Island? I am.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 377: Anne or Beast? and Best Fronds

GC13 and David discuss Amphibia’s first two episodes: Anne or Beast? and Best Fronds.

Well if The Owl House started off a little oddly, Amphibia seems to start off like it intends to continue—and that might just include a lot of jokes based on fakeouts.

So Anne has been whisked off to another world for a magical adventure, with nothing but her trusty cellphone by her side? No, this isn’t Infinity Train, but we’re here for it anyway.

Luz is no Space Alien: The Owl House Tells a Lie

The first episode of a series is very important, because it lets the viewer know what to expect from its characters and its stories. The Owl House has a whole new world to introduce us to, so it had to start bringing us up to speed on that as well.

With so much ground to cover it’s understandable why The Owl House was in a rush to introduce its main character, Luz; in order to be as efficient as possible it told us a lot about her in the first couple of minutes—and made her sound like she’s from outer space in the process. What it showed us, however, was quite a different character.

With this video made I can continue watching The Owl House, so I’ll see how I did with my prediction. Will Luz act like she’s from outer space after all, or will she keep acting like she’s a great friend?

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 376: A Lying Witch and a Warden

GC13, Soren, and David discuss A Lying Witch and a Warden from The Owl House.

Yes, The Owl House has finally come to the Lunar Sea Spire podcast. This is the first GC13 has ever seen of The Owl House, but David and Soren are quite familiar with the series.

So come with us into this magical world. Stay out of the conformatorium (do you guys get it? It’s like her summer camp!) but otherwise, make sure you have fun! Being weird rocks.
