- animated TV series
- created by Rebecca Sugar (former artist/writer on Adventure Time)
- debuted on Cartoon Network 11/4/2013 (yet IMDB lists 7/27/2013 - so I'm going with that official date)
CAST (boldface denotes character directly lifted from comic or source material)
Steven Universe (Zach Callison)
Garnet (Estelle)
Amethyst (Michaela Dietz)
Pearl (Deedee Magno)
My impressions:
Well, to be honest, while this looks adorable and, if it's anything like Adventure Time, it's probably funny and surreal as well, but I don't know if I'll ever get around to seeing this. Why include it? Thoroughness. Here's the description from Wikipedia:
"In Steven Universe, the world is protected from evil threats by the Crystal Gems, a group of intergalactic female warriors who use the power of special gem stones embedded on their bodies to summon magical weapons. Joining the cool-headed Garnet, the laid back Amethyst, and the gentle Pearl, all teenage girls, is the unlikely fourth member of the team; the eponymous Steven, a young boy who inherited a gem stone from his mother, a Crystal Gem named Rose Quartz. As Steven tries to figure out the secrets to using his gem, he spends his days in Beach City doing activities with the other Crystal Gems, whether it's helping them save the universe or just hanging out."
