There were a few episodes early on where Steven acted a bit dumber than his character suggested he'd be, but I think I'd chalk that up to early writing pains.

It's really fun, it's like Archer by way of Voltron. There's only 6 episodes, too, so it's easy to burn through the episodes.
I loved it because a 7-pack of beer is exactly the kind of BS gimmick a beer company would try and market.
To be fair, Molly was motivated by Vern's death, so she's pushing it (the shot of her watching Vern's name being removed from the door cinched it.) What made it works so well is that Oderkirk's character is, to a certain extent, right.
Raj wasn't the best portrayal, for sure, but they did develop him into a fully-fleshed out character (as much as you can in a cartoon), he just wasn't strong enough to be in a recurring role. I spoke with Murray about this - he just gotten older and had kids, and really wanted to make a show for them. And I admire the…

Well, Satan wasn't a big deal to S&P back then (a lot of crazy cartoons did some version of "character goes to hell" episode), but you just couldn't say the word "hell".
Yeah, it kinda sucks though - Camp Lazlo wasn't a bad show, even if it skewed younger, although the main 3 were unappealing. The secondary cast - Edward, Samson, and Scoutmaster Lumpus in particular - were fantastic.
Oh, don't get me wrong. Daffy is the best. His reactions and increasing desperation are a lot of fun, although I wouldn't say that they're anything NEW to the character. Daffy has always kinda been reactionary. I just don't agree that's his best piece of character work though. "Rabbit Fire" I think is a better…
So I guess I'll be that guy.
It's a little bit of both, for sure. Bugs most likely was originally based on Gable when conceived by Tex Avery (mostly the carrot-eating thing), but developed into a more Groucho-esque character when Chuck Jones finalized things.
It's funny, Yoshi seems like a crappy character in most games, but his skillset is kinda defined by his scrappiness. He's terrible if you aren't willing use him in nasty ways. He's actually a pretty vicious Smash Bros. character, but it doesn't seem like it because his moveset is rather chaotic. If you master it,…
Really happy to see coverage here on AVClub. "Too Many Birthdays" and "Giant Woman" were definitely the best, followed closely by "Lars and the Cool Kids." I love that Lars himself realized he went to far when he spoke ill of Steven's mother.
I hope he's in a 10-mintue slugfest with that space raccoon.
Recess is amazing. It's basically a more upbeat, more optimistic version of Hey Arnold. And it holds up wonderfully - AND it had an early version of Siri 20 years before Apple debuted it.
"Hannibal called you rude" is the new "Candlejack," in that if you hear that directed at you, you're immedia
Ducktales! WHOO-HOO!
I wasn't around for the release so I wouldn't know how it was received. Still I wish had the kind of long-term respect that Deus Ex possesses.
Even though it's a bit clunky and gets brutally hard in the last few levels, Return to Castle Wolfenstein is actually a great, underrated game.
