There's an undercurrent of "He doesn't stand for what I stand for or the accepted majority of the vocal left, so he needs to be removed." Is that not clear? I don't agree with Maher on everything, but I don't mind him spreading his own ideas through his own show.

So is there an official bandwagon policy for the left now? Can you not argue or even entertain the discussion of an opposing viewpoint without being decried as a blasphemer against the almighty altar of political correctness? Everyone has to feel the same way about everything? There are actually defined rules now…

Man I have a hard time believing him.

Yeah you're right. There's no consistency which is also an issue with the show for the last few seasons. It happens more and more now. They don't even acknowledge the fact that they're establishing rules just to break them, it just happens for no reason. If they addressed the slapdash nature of reality it could at…

If that's your interpretation then fair enough, but I don't think Steven is portrayed in a particularly immature way. In fact, he's managed to tackle complex issues that most adults would struggle with by sticking to his guns here, and being flexible there. It's true that he still has a hard time justifying his…

Dammit Steven Universe stop doing things perfectly! This was an A+ episode in my opinion. Every little beat of the story was implemented and executed just right. I particularly loved the way the show tackled that feeling of being home alone as a child one too many times.

I love how this episode was all about them taking on the roles of the crystal gems only for them to cover Greg's car wash instead. It was a funny misdirection, and they never felt a need to point it out. This was a lot of fun.

This episode started off okay, and it wasn't as much of a mess as last episode, but they really dropped the ball on all fronts. The premise is fine for both stories, and it did seem like it was gonna be interesting at first with the prologue having Bart and Lisa actually interacting onscreen together for more than 5…

Fair enough. It's not objectively a bad formula but it feels overused at this point and it doesn't help the already haphazard writing of an episode like this when the first third is just random plot threads bobbing in and out of existence one after another.

God there were some great sketches here. I'm getting sick of how Trump is still dominating every piece of pop culture right now, but the jokes made at his administrations' expense felt so on point. The whole Sean Spicer bit was so much over the top fun, and Kellyanne Conway's manic episode was really well done. …

It can be. There's usually some clever gags here and there even in the worst episodes. Plus, there have been some genuinely solid episodes every once in a while. I wouldn't say it's good enough to recommend though. There are too many jokes that are either really badly told or not funny in the first place. Also…

Oh my god. This season is just a roller coaster. There have been some definite highs, and some definite this. None of this was well executed. None of the 5 or 6 storylines go anywhere, they just roll past any potential that could have been there. There were some ok jokes, but fuck I couldn't enjoy them. It's…

I was pretty into the last season of South Park despite it being sloppy here and there, but as soon as it was over I realized that I would never watch it again. I feel the same way about pretty much everything this show has done for the last few years. It's funny, it's clever, it's clearly being done by intelligent…

This can be a real fuckin' success story of creator intent winning out and resulting in something beautiful for the world to behold. I'm holding out hope, and I'm not feeling any kind of doubt. I just trust that this is gonna work out in spite of any cynicism I'd usually feel for news like this. Of all the shows to…

A globetrotting adventure across the sea. Hi ho boys, we've made it to Adventure Time Island!

And scene. What a great way to end a great week of episodes. For starters, the little fake-out at the beginning was pretty well done. They didn't bother dragging it out. It was just a little misdirection topped off with a joke and the scene following it was really fun. I love the sibling mentality they applied to…

Once again, Steven Universe is able to take a standard trope and flip it all by just not following the typical twist. There's no explicit downside for the humans living in the zoo, and while the whole breeding program is understandably unpleasant for anyone familiar with the idea of free love, there's not that much…

I love this show, and I love the messages it has to share with kids and adults alike. I think that in spite of some flaws here and there, this is one of the best fully-realized concepts to come out of any animation studio in a long time.

I finished watching this whole arc the other day, and it's awesome, but I'll just stick to this episode for now. I thought the Agate was a solid caricature of the kind of high-minded fundamentalist caste system that they've always scorned whenever the gems talk about home world. The world they've always hinted at is…

I pretty much agree, but those still sound like good intentions to me. They don't lead to good consequences, but the intention is still pure. Greg's just a clapping meat sack in her mind, a discarded pawn in her sister's long-lost game, so why would she consider what he wants? Just because she's oblivious and…
