    It's not really presented as 'isn't it great to just eat ice cream all the time', just the way a child of Steven's age might behave, especially one whose primary role models are magical girls who don't need to eat and a fat guy who lives in a van.

    He even throws up at the end from having had too much cookie cat (he left his family behind).

    I'm not an overweight guy or anything but I still relate to Steven's enthusiasm for comfort/junk food.

    It's not like they're going to tap into my other childhood nostalgia like 80s cartoons and NES games.

    The commercials gave me an Earthboind vibe and the pilot confirmed my suspicions.
    I'll be monitoring this show.

    At least it's better than Uncle Grandpa.

    Finally watching this. I really like it.

    Especially happy with the general variation in character body types and little things like that.

    There was an interview with Sugar on NPR yesterday.

    She was EXTREMELY shy, very different than what the show led me to expect

    But super interesting

    they weren't going to have two new episodes every week, only the first few weeks so they can at least get a few for reruns

    I wonder if Stevens lack of control is because he's half human.

    Apparently the gems dont need to sleep or eat

    I just binge watched this show and it is super charming.

    Also interesting fact: Steven is based on Rebecca Sugar's brother Steven Sugar, who works on the show.
    The program is even named for her younger brother, Steven — who is a background artist on the show.

    “I realized, while working on the show, that it’s not what I thought it was going to be about. It’s about how much I needed emotional support in high school — just with little things, going through tough times, high school teen angst,” says Sugar, who simultaneously attended Montgomery Blair High and the Visual Arts Center at Einstein High.

    “My brother would just be hanging out with me, not having to say anything. If I ever felt weird around friends, Steven would always be there. I felt that would never change.”

    Sugar stops herself, joking that she should move on to another topic before she gets verklempt.

    “Aw, that’s nice of her to say!” Steven Sugar, 23, replies to his sister’s sentiment. “We spent a lot of time together as kids watching cartoons, playing video games and drawing. We’d brainstorm ideas for comics together, run ideas past each other and get critiques — all of which sort of set the groundwork for what [we’re] doing now.”

    The last two episodes of Steven Universe have been just flat out amazing

    This show is easily hitting some of the same heights that Adventure Time has before it
