It is just me or was the animation really off-model this episode? Forget "Looney Tunes", it felt like I was watching "Rocky & Bullwinkle" with the level of consistency from frame-to-frame. Also, how bottomless was Steven's bag of marshmallows that he could just keep throwing them at Peridot? Where did he even get that

Need someone working that xylophone in the background.

Oh yea I had that. I know the movies "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Maid In Manhattan" way better than I should.

It's surreal to watch gay characters now versus when I was growing up in the 90's.

Agreed. The episode wasn't about that. It was about Steven coming to terms with his mother's legacy, which calls for something different.

It seriously reminded me of "Godfellas" from "Futurama", which also similarly showed the scale and gravity of the situation.

Doc Ruby reminds me of myself when I get angry at work.

Since it was a flop, not long. Think we only had it for two weeks, three at the most. It lasted as long as "Gigli" which I also got to see in the theaters, meaning I'm one of the few.

If you can believe it, Cuba blamed it on Will Smith taking all the good black male lead roles. All I thought when he said that was "Dude, no one MADE YOU sign up for Snow Dogs, bro."

I worked at a movie theater when this came out, and it's even more surreally bad than Nathan describes.

I kind of got the implication that the Rubies are now lost in the vacuum of space and we'll never see them again, bleak as that is. The fact that this happened to the ineffectual comic relief villains gives this extra punch in my opinion.

This recent block of episodes kind of makes me think of something: the difference between a "revelation" and a "twist" in story-telling.

That took me a minute to put together. I thought Eyeball was sad realizing it wasn't the real Jasper. But no…the truth was much stupider.

Steven Universe never returned home.

Throwing this out there:

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

- "Can I have your autograph?"
- "You can't AFFORD IT!"

Disc mounted on one arm, tablet on the other? I'm into it.

Ooo, Kate Mulgrew as Blue Diamond! That slow sinister purr would be great for the character.

Ah see that was my problem. I was more like Lapis and went for the deadpan explanation.
