Mr. Jones-Quartey’s show, OK K.O., will be premiering this week though. Starting on Tuesday, new episodes will be airing each weekday at 6:10 or 6:30 PM EDT until August 24.

GC13 and David discuss the spoilerific (we think) promotional footage shown at the Steven Universe panel at San Diego Comic Con 2017.
So, Lars of the Stars? Are you hyped yet? Whether it feels real or not, it definitely feels awesome.
We have a Gem going full Saturday morning cartoon villain in a fully Pirates of the Caribbean atmosphere. Oh, and Lars says “Bingo Bongo.” It’s transcendent.
It’s not all fun and games though: a trailer was played showing much more sober times on Earth. Perhaps we could all enjoy a ripping adventure among the stars to lion the mood.
Steven Universe air times for July 24-30, 2017
No re-runs this week. (Out of This World was originally scheduled, but has since been removed.)
Soundtrack vinyl set available for pre-order
It happened much sooner than we expected: the vinyl edition of the Steven Universe soundtrack has gone up for pre-order on iam8bit.com.
It will cost you $50 to buy, and will have all 37 tracks on four 10″ colored records (with their appearances themed on one each of Steven, Amethyst, Pearl, and Garnet).
There is no specific shipping date: “Q4 2017” is all we have at the moment. Anyone who pre-orders before the end of July 25 Pacific time will be entered to win a ukulele signed by Ms. Sugar herself.
Steven Universe: Art and Origins
On July 11 the art book finally came out: 240 pages of concept art, storyboards, and discussions about the creation of the show, all bound inside a beautiful hard cover. It even includes images from Ms. Sugar’s early work, including many stills from her student film Singles.
Early concept sketches for the Gems? This book has those. Early sketches of the Beach City citizens? It has those too. Backgrounds from the show? Those are in, and they’re lovely.
If you’re still on the fence about this one, we can say reservation: get this book. It’s gorgeous, and it’s great to see so much from the show’s creation.
Soundtrack to see vinyl release
The pre-San Diego Comic Con article by Newsweek has a lot of interesting tidbits in it (Bismuth and Jasper forever!), but there’s one big takeaway: the soundtrack is coming to vinyl!
3,000 vinyl singles with Stronger Than You and Love Like You will be available to SDCC attenders and online, but the entire soundtrack will also be available on vinyl “later this year”.
Ms. Sugar says that the vinyl release is intended for older fans, for collectors.
In the article she also teases more big lyrical songs coming up in the series, as well as reiterating her dream to release the non-lyrical musical score of the show at some point as well.

GC13, Sophia, and David discuss the Looney Tunes homage episode with a Yogi Bear reference in it: Kindergarten Kid.
Peridot comes up with several flawlessed Peri-Plans. Which one was your favorite? Surely all that is needed to succeed is a reduction in variables (or perhaps in increase in pupil sizes?).
It’s possible (probable even) that we’ll never learn much detail about how bubbles work, but it was quite remarkable for Peridot to learn to bubble (a less emotional version of when Steven learned to bubble back in Monster Buddies), but at least we know Peridot has started a bubble collection back at the barn.

GC13 and David talk about Bubbled, home of the Ruby Funny Face.
It’s a more contained episode with some interesting interpretations of how outer space works, but it also has some gorgeous interpretations of how outer space looks so it gets a free pass from us.
Steven adds to his list of mental traumas this episode, but he makes a serious attempt at healing Eyeball (even if nobody knows why he chose to lick her gem directly).
Thankfully for us and for Steven’s mental well-being we later find out that she was recovered safe and sound, but Mindful Education comes after this and before that, so Steven had an awful lot of time to ponder how things went.
