Cartoon Network Launches “Steven Universe” Podcast
Hmmmmmm….
Two things are bothering me this week: 1) Viceland is promoting the fact that they interviewed the producers of Rick and Morty…a rival cable network interviewing an animated series. Never heard that before. 2) Cartoon Network has launched a Steven Universe podcast.
Nickelodeon has an animation podcast, too, and quite frankly, it’s garbage. At the end of the day, both shows are giving biased takes on properties that are produced by their respective parent companies thereby somewhat diluting the necessity of a subjective podcast i.e. providing unique views on a particular subject not adhering to the principles set forth from potential “political” pressures.
In any case, you can listen to the show here.

There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
