Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 49: Catch and Release

PodcastTitleGC13, Ken, Sophia, and Hunter do a little bit of late-night recording to discuss the very exciting new episode of Steven Universe: Catch and Release.

Who could fail to be thrilled by the prospect of Peridot becoming Green Mom? Nobody, not even a heartless podcaster who doesn’t love Centipeetle.

There’s just so much to wonder about: the form the Cluster will take, the fate of Peridot’s limb enhancers, and why Peridot is so adorable and smol! The Crystal Gems look awesome, and Peridot is one playful kitty.

A special shoutout to some fan art: MisterGrey’s fan art of our Pearl and some homeworld Pearls was mentioned in this episode of the podcast, so check it out. Aren’t they all just adorbable?

What we learned from Catch and Release

Oh boy, the lore marches on, doesn’t it? Sadie’s Song may have been a break from thinking about lore stuff, but Catch and Release makes up for it. There’s so much to speculate about, but let’s find out what we learned, shall we?

Preview for When it Rains

whatdoesitmeanThis one looks… Well if you’ve been watching Cartoon Network you’ve seen the commercials that give off an Invader Zim vibe (specifically The Wettening), but now it… Well let’s not force this episode to bear the weight of lore expectations; a character episode is what we need right now.

Ratings for Catch and Release

Well, we’ve learned that pulling most of the premiers doesn’t help ratings, and that filling more than half of their schedule with Teen Titans Go! (they’re a fourteen-hour network thanks to the ten hours used for Adult Swim) doesn’t get the remaining premiers better ratings either.

Catch and Release, for all of its hype, only got 1,386,000 viewers, though that was still enough to get it the top spot. Here’s how the premiers looked:

  1. Steven Universe at 5:30 with 1,386,000
  2. Wabbit at 5:00 with 1,377,000
  3. The Ridonculous Race at 7:30 with 1,294,000

Immediate reaction to Catch and Release

All of our yes.

Just be warned, this episode lived up to the hype surrounding it. It confirmed some previous theories, moved the plot forward big time, and people aren’t going to be able to contain themselves from spoiling it. Just watch the episode as soon as you’re able.

As for what lore we got out of it? Oh yes, we think we can manage some posts. Don’t you worry. 🙂

What to expect from Catch and Release

How hyped do you want to get? Could this be a Centipeetle episode as so many hope? The return of the Slinker? Peridot? Lapis? Ms. Zuke has said repeatedly on Twitter that this is one of her favorites.

The one thing that is hard to expect is a humdrum episode. The fandom is definitely hyped for something big to happen in this episode, so we’ll just have to wait and see if that hype is paid off.

Please place your bets now. The winners will be able to collect after the episode airs on Thursday at 5:30 PM EDT.

New episode: When it Rains will air on October 1, 2015

Hmmmmmm… There might be some hype for this one, depending on what happens in Catch and Release. Cross your fingers and hope that there are no schedule changes that keep us from seeing this one in a timely manner, so we can watch it on Thursday, October 1 at 5:30 PM EDT.
