I've been watching Rick and Morty and I'm not sure how I feel about it. There are things I really like about it, but it remains a bit off-putting.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

I'm way more into Bee and Puppycat than I've been into Steven Universe.
There's just the one episode of B&P, right?
I'm trying to like Steven Universe, too, but the title character just grates on me.

I still have a grievance with the changes in character design from the pilot.
I do love the 60s anime design, and the beach town setting is great. And it is set up for some rich emotional storylines, but it just hasn't made much of it yet.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Okay, we've watched the first 2 episodes of Archer, and I'm just going to have to pretend that before Bob Belcher opened a burger restaurant and settled down and had kids, he was a secret agent.

There is an episode of Archer which specifically alludes to something like this.

For what it's worth, while I think all of Archer is pretty great, they sort of found their footing in S1 with the Zeppelin episode.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So, Archer. We're up to the zeppelin episode. Is it wrong that I love Cheryl? (Or whatever the hell her name is.)
