A thread to discuss television and online animation.

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.

Yes, Suki at Boiling Rock is pure awesomeness and easily vaulted her to my favorite of the non-benders in the show.

Though I'd be hard-pressed to decide between Suki or Asami as the best badass non-bender in the Avatar verse.

ETA: I think I've said this before, but I think I somehow managed to randomly catch all the Suki episodes before I actually took the time to watch the series in earnest and was disappointed to discover she had a much smaller role in the overall series than I thought.

We just finished "The Earth King" in my watch with my son and his reaction to the end of the episode was "Oh, no! Toph got captured!" while my reaction was "Yes, here comes metal bending !"

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

I don't know if you need spoiler-font this many years out, but that IS a fantastic moment in the series.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm definitely not watching the debate, so I'm here to say that Sterling Archer calling Babou the ocelot a fox-eared asshole is funny every. single. time.

That is a fact.

Good lord, we've gone a long stretch without animation commentary.

Last season of Archer! (I haven't watched the last two coma seasons, though I'm especially intrigued by the In Space season.)

Venture Brothers cancelled! (It had a good run and had exhausted its narrative possibilities. Could have had a better conclusion to wrap up.)

Big Mouth - hilarious!

(Can I note here that I've been watching Big Mouth with Matilda? And it's been an oddly positive bonding experience.)

In space was...weird. I'm liking the current (post-coma) season a lot more.

I've just started watching Castlevania. It's odd to see animation reminiscent of Gargoyles with characters swearing. Anyway, three episodes in and I'm enjoying it.

I really enjoyed Star Trek: Lower Decks! It was silly but also ST.

Lower Decks is great!
