"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ooof, that Bronies episode of Bob's Burgers was some kind of genius stuff. Anything Tina-centric is usually a win though.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Damn it, last night's episode? We were busy eating lamb cake with Tim's family. Must hit up iTunes. (This is particularly funny because we had a discussion about bronies at dinner.)

Yeah, last night. Must See! Tina's Equestranauts fanfiction! Bob going undercover at Bronies convention, in costume. Louise gleefully cackling as she conspires to reverse a ripoff. Tina moaning "Non-canonical! Non-canonical!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wasn't that last week's? It was wonderful, whenever it was on. Last night's was ambergris and the bathroom remodel. Also good, but not quite as stunningly amazing. "Non-canonical! Non-canonical!" was so so perfect. I can't even.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Whooooa, Adventure Time.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Suicide Squad!

Normally I'm not a fan of the character designs in the Arkham X universe, but they're using the one, true Amanda Waller, so they're forgiven.

Animation-related (because you might not read the comics thread): Bee and Puppycat comic book next week: [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Bee and Puppycat comic book next week

Cool!

I feel disloyal to Rebecca Sugar, but I'm way more into Bee and Puppycat than I've been into Steven Universe.

I am enjoying Steven Universe but Bee and Puppycat has that extra bit of pizzazz.

Speaking of which, I've been digging the new season of Adventure Time even as poor Finn suffers poor parenthood and mayhem.

Last season wasn't just strong, but really took a lot of narrative chances. That whole Lemonhope two-parter at the end was so sad and epic and strange. A rather dark and philosophical journey ("Nightmares again. That's freedom for you, I guess.")

Psyched that Bob's Burgers Season 3 is up on Netflix, so I've been watching that and S4 as it comes up on Hulu.

I think it was Entertainment Weekly that had a piece on the ten funniest shows on TV recently, and had both Archer and Bob's Burgers on there.

Anybody watching Dan Harmon's cartoon? Morty something?

I've heard Rick and Morty is fantastic. My friend Dan keeps trying to get me to watch it, and FilmCritHulk wrote a whole post about how it's the best show on television.
