I'm always scoping out new cartoons to watch as I stuff my face with cereal in the morning. Well, I found a real winner, Steven Universe!
I watched the first episode and I loved it! Not every new Cartoon Network show is totally crap, this one's a real gem! (pun totally intended!)
What do you think? I like it!
It's not too bad but nothing i would go out of my way to watch. I haven't been pleased with anything Cartoon Network as had on in very long while. I think the last show they had on that i really enjoyed was Batman Brave and the Bold.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's becoming really rare to see any new cartoons that are any good. I don't know if it's because I just prefer cartoons that I grew up with, like Batman The Animated Series and Bonkers, or what. I do really like this Steven Universe however. I like the animation style, the characters are funny and stand out from one another. I rate it 4 out of 5 cereal bowls!
DeleteI actually have never seen Batman Brave and The Bold before now. As soon as I read about it here I watched an episode and man it's awesome!
DeleteBatman Brave and the Bold is great, I agree. I also really enjoy Adventure Time and Regular Show. Steven Universe is shaping up to be pretty great, and it has a similar vibe (with out being derivative) of Adventure Time, IMO. I personally can NOT STAND Unlce Grandpa. To me, it is the worst kind of time wasting television. My daughter likes Gumball, and I occasionally chuckle at it, but ultimately it doesn't hold me the way Adveture Time, Regular Show, and (I suspect, having only seen 2 episodes) Steven Universe do. CN has a handful of diamonds in a LOT of rough. If you aren't already doing so, you should also check out Disney's "Gravity Falls".
ReplyDeleteI love Adventure Time and I actually became a fan of Pen Ward just weeks before I heard they were going to produce a show based on his original Nickelodeon Random Cartoon short. The Youtube mini series Bravest Warriors, also created by Pen Ward, is more aimed at adults and is quite good too. I am also a fan of Regular for sure, aaaaahhhhh yeah! Gumball, meh. I have no doubt in my mind that Uncle Grandpa was inspired by a drug trip. I mean seriously, the show is just messed up, not to mention all the creepy subtle innuendo. I posted a brief Uncle Grandpa review back in September.
DeleteWhoa! I just watched some Gravity Falls for the first time, it's so good! Finally, Disney is coming out with some good cartoon shows, yes! I never cared for Phineas and Ferb AT ALL! I also love the new classic style Micky cartoons. I hope and pray for a new Disney Afternoon with new, high quality cartoons!
DeleteI watched it with my kids this week. They are big fans of Regular Show and Adventure Time, but they weren't too interested in this. I can watch Reg and Adventure - but Steven Universe didn't hold my attention. It didn't seem like anything was ever going on.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's not the most exciting show, but I kinda like it for that reason. I love the music too!
DeleteI need to give it a few more episodes I suppose. I did catch myself watching after the kids fell asleep. LOL
DeleteNerd out with me,
ReplyDeleteI've Think that one Adventure Time hero Finn the human,Is the genius and or creator of the crystal gems!
:0
Because he re-create the land of ooo into Beach City."The Safe City For Humans!" and sought to create the crystal gem with Princess Bubblegum along side to teach them about peace and be strong and good.
That's an interesting theory. I'm always for fun cross-overs.
DeleteI have sadly fallen way behind on Adventure Time, since i no longer have cable. I do have seasons 1 and 2 on DVD. I've only seen the first few episodes of Steven Universe since I posted about it here. Have you been watching it? How is it?
