I understood that reference!

So you think that things meant for adults can have universal appeal, but stories amenable to younger audiences inherently can't?

Oh my god, Sheep in the Big City. If it weren't for YouTube, I would've thought I'd hallucinated that show.

I don't understand your hostility to the notion of children, teenagers, and adults all being able to connect over the same medium. A grown man or woman finding meaning in a piece of animation or a comic book doesn't diminish his or her maturity. Rather, I think that means the creator has hit on some emotional truth…

Fuck, I forgot Island Adventure. Dammit, there were *so* many good episodes of this show that AV Club didn't end up covering.

So you would consider this a signifier of audience quality, rather than a credit to the artist for creating something with universal appeal?

See, this is just more grandstanding and absolutes. Give me specifics. Define and dissect for me the exact qualities of fiction aimed at younger audiences that makes it inherently inferior.

Sigh. We didn't even get through one regular rotation review without a troll peering out from beneath the bridge and demanding that we answer his questions three.

Success, fellow Stevens! We have replaced humans as the dominant life form of TV Club animation coverage!

I read the logline they released for the finale, next Friday's episode, and that single sentence was enough to make me tear up preemptively.

The fight scenes were actually a source of frustration for me, despite my deep love for the show. Specifically, I was annoyed by the fact that every single character showed creativity and ingenuity in how they utilized their bending abilities…except Korra. The Beifong family made metal their collective bitch. Zaheer…

Minus the comma splice in the first panel, it was basically perfect. I think this one will make a nice companion to Batgirl and Lumberjanes on my pull list.
