When Steven sees Connie for the first time at the party and her outfit and hair are completely different...
I actually really felt his hurt. That scene somehow feels really true to life.
Also the Lion betrayal is pretty hilarious.
As with all Kevin episodes, this one is was particularly good.
All in all, I REALLY liked this bomb. These are some of the best townie episodes we have had for this show.
And just as with the Sardonyx bomb, the very human dread hanging over the episodes really elevates the otherwise 'mundane' events.
They're available on the official Cartoon Network app and on Video on Demand services from cable providers.

Cartoon Network's website also has the episodes, and all of their content is free-to-watch this weekend. Normally, you would need to log-in with your cable provider's info to see everything, but they've waived that for this weekend.

Reminder people the CN app will have new episodes tomorrow, i have put a link to the app in the OP should you wish to download it to your phone.
Dude don't worry about it if the show was ending we'd already know look how far out the announced the end of uncle grandpa and regular showWe're 14 episodes away from presumably the end of the show unless cartoon network pulls out a sudden surprise season 6 announcement. Not sure how they'd wrap up everything in that span of time unless theres a TV movie that'll end the show.
Thought the townie bomb was good, but they better kick it into high gear now if this is the end.
Yeah, they wouldn't have introducedDude don't worry about it if the show was ending we'd already know look how far out the announced the end of uncle grandpa and regular show
Either way, it would be a rare circumstance. I dont recall CN renewing a show with such short notice. Usually its announced in advance. We havent gotten any news of a renewal since the show started (seasons 4&5 were just a reorganization of 2&3)People have been fearing that Steven Universe is going to end for a while, but really I don't think you have to worry about that. For examples, we only saw the 'Lars death' scene earlier this year, but people saw the storyboard for that scene leaked (out of context) two years ago. They have a slew of episodes already done and CN's scheduling is just spacing them out, IE I'm pretty sure all of Season 5 is already done. There's been no word by CN the show is over and the people who work on SU are still working on the show, probably on S6. More so, S5 is still setting up stuff and doesn't seem to be trying to bring things to a close. If you also look at every other CN cancellation, they usually make the announcement the show is ending way in advance of it actually happening. We're already nearly half-way through Season 5 and there's been no such announcement.
I think there's more evidence there's at least going to be a Season 6 than there is evidence the show is coming to an end with Season 5.
I mean teen titans go is in the same situation. they have a movie announced but as far as announced tv seasons they are on the final season with only a few more episodes to air.Either way, it would be a rare circumstance.

Also, sugar has gone on record saying season 3 (now 5) will be written into "one hell of a corner" which sounds like an ending to me.
I think both shows arent doing too well in the ratings, so it wouldnt surprise me if both ended and they tried to rebrand the network to get more viewershipI mean teen titans go is in the same situation. they have a movie announced but as far as announced tv seasons they are on the final season with only a few more episodes to air.
really think that one is going away as well?
those eps werent a bomb, just a two parter. steven bombs werent even a thing back then. i really enjoyed this bomb though with the stand outs being raising the barn and back to the kindergarten, each having to deal with the same theme while other bombs were mostly a few town eps that were meh to ok and the last 2 being plot important epsI thought it was a nice little group of episodes, but far from my favorite Steven bomb. As far as fallout arcs go, it didn't have the same emotional impact as after Jasper and Peridot invaded.
as far as I know SU and TTG are still the number 1 and number 2 show CN has ratings wise.I think both shows arent doing too well in the ratings, so it wouldnt surprise me if both ended and they tried to rebrand the network to get more viewership
Regarding that spoiler...take a look at that character in this year's San Diego Comic Con poster and get your mind blown like I did:The latest "Steven bomb" was nice. A little too many Beach City episodes, but it was fine, we are used to it. Still, I worry about Lars, and I hope we will get more info soon.
Now, that little scene in Gemcation was interesting (spoilers):
Pearl litteraly can't talk about something. She wants to, but can't, and somehow she stops herself (well, her right hand stops her) from talking a couple times. She is hiding something major about Homeworld (and possibly Pink Diamond), something that is eating her inside, but can't talk about it. It looked forceful: something inside of her is preventing her from speaking, she has to rip off her hand from her mouth several times, but in the end she still can't talk. And from a video I watched on YouTube, this isn't the first time it happened (remember their little excursion on the moon? It happened there too! And also in Steven's Dream. Gemcation is the first episode in which it is made obvious that Pearl is under a kind of geas/spell (possessed?) preventing her from talking - and it is always the right hand which covers her mouth).
We all know that the gems know more than they let on, but in the case of Pearl specifically, there is something huge going on.
Regarding that poster...
That's a good catch! I can definitely see Pearl being physically unable to speak about something related to the diamonds becoming a thing this season. Being a Pearl, breaking a direct order by the gem she was created to serve must be extremely difficult, even millennia later. Perhaps she has to try to communicate something to the Crystal Gems by trying to find loopholes in that order...It had never occurred to me that Pearl might know things that she was "programmed" to never divulge, but it makes sense when you see how intense her reaction was when we first learned about the shattering of Pink Diamond. I bet even Garnet might not realize that something is stopping Pearl from talking...
