So I guess RWBY still can bring the goods; when it suits them, when they bother to get around to it.

So as far as Young Justice goes, my current plan is to wait until Game of Thrones is finished, then cancel HBO and sign up for DC, then watch Young Justice, cancel DC and sign up for Disney, which should be available sometime later this year.

I watched the first episode of gen:LOCK and thought it was kind of interesting, then I saw the cast list, and my jaw dropped. If they're going to invest in that kind of talent, it better be worth it.

Dragon Prince Season 2 trailer!!!! [link]

Hard to tell definitely if the animation is improved; it seems a little better. I hope for later seasons they take a hard look at Spider-Verse, which was reduced frame-rate animation done well.

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

So, catching up on Bob's Burgers :(a) The Gene Mile really came together beautifully and (b) "Doll Things Considered" is legitimately a good retail name

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I lost it when I realized that Malory Archer was actually "MOTHER," and again when I saw that Ray was Inara.

again when I saw that Ray was Inara.

It took me until the end of the first episode to make the Ray = Inara connection (mostly because I was stuck on the Alien theme so much that Firefly never crossed my mind).

I guess today is a big day for animation revivals: Daria is getting a spin-off.
