I'm guessing all of them. Or something he'll do in the previous episode, because that's the last episode—after the "disappearances" one.

So it seems to be a Stevenbomb starting four weeks from this Monday.

Please remember that this is Zap2It. They've been wrong about airdates before.

Really, just the one time so far. It's still an official source, it's just that these schedules are subject to change.

But weren't "The New Crystal Gems" to "Room For Ruby" said to air a week later than they actually did? And on a Thursday?

This (spoiler thread) is the earliest mention I can find of "The New Crystal Gems". They don't mention its premier date, but the one listed currently is correct (no way to be sure it wasn't changed because the wayback machine isn't working) and when a different source gave the same airdates, no one pointed it out as wrong.

This is the earliest mention I can find of "Room for Ruby" in this thread. It's from Cartoon Network website, and was correct to the final date.

The only time I know of that zap2it was wrong is for "Lion 4: Alternate Ending", which it listed and still does list as having already premiered back March 23.

Even then, I'm fairly certain CN had changed the date at the last minute.

Which always has been, and will continue to be, a possibility with any poster schedule.

Blogs like that are best ignored to sheer levels of whining that come from them, and I know everyone is entitled to an opinion,but the criticism I often see from these 'critical blogs' is vitriol directed at the show runners and shows a complete lack of awareness of anything.

Now I can happily read a blog that's critical of the show,providing it's criticism is constructive and at least analytical and well written,the linked up is none of them those things.

My googling is turning up nothing regarding their claims,they may have made it up

No, what I mean is that, according to the person who made this post, Rebecca stated in a interview that she regretted the initial portrayal of Yellow and Blue Diamond in the debuts and personally worked on the recent steven bomb to change it. Is that true? Does anyone have any links to interviews regarding the bomb?

I'm not surprised that people are blaming the show's sympathetic portrayal of the Diamonds on her storyboarding for Ice King episodes though.

And err... Tumblr likes to act like those decisions were universally hated but they aren't. Tumblr in general wants the show to be more black and white than it is. Of thos the only ones I think are problems is kinda the Sugilite stuff.

Blue Diamond grieving for a Gem of her own status doesn't change the fact that she sees lower Gems as disposable. The episode doesn't let you forget Blue's stance on Garnet. The Zoomans being ludicrously happy is a reference to more humane zoos, but the underlying condition is still keeping sentient creatures like animals, which Steven and Greg object to.

I have no problem with Bismuth being bubbled (I know she'll be let out eventually) because she tried to kill Steven, and is ideologically opposed to him. When he accepts that things are more complicated, I believe he'll let her out.

Pearl's "abuse" lasted for a month at best, and was rectified immediately after it was proven to be harmful. Future episodes show Pearl as far more considerate of Connie's safety, insisting that she stay out of the fight in "Gem Hunt". People blame Connie hurting Jeff on Pearl, but if anything it's a product of her overprotective parenting applied to the wrong target.

Now you can disagree with all of these points, but that's the point. Not everyone agrees with the SU critical crowd on all these point.

... since when those are "reviled mistakes"?

I mean, out of all of those the only one I can get is the one complaint about the Zoo, I guess.

I easily understood Connie's reaction too, because I've heard a similar story from someone I know who's had self defense training, and people have snuck up on them. They didn't break anybody's bones, but anyway It's really just a panic response / muscle memory thing.

Fucking hell, the episodes about the Ice King that gave him sympathy were some of Adventure Time's best episodes. All of that blog's so-called "most reviled mistakes" are barely reviled. More people revile Lars, Ronaldo, Onion, the anti-climax to the Malachite and Cluster arcs, and the slow pace of Season 4 than they revile Sugalite's design.

It's just a dumb blog post by some dumb random nobody on the internet. Not worth the time or effort to discuss because it's ultimately pointless.

It's hard to see the zoo being portrayed as a utopia when the concept of rejection so completely upends their contentment

Since the Zoo was brought up; I wonder if the Diamonds abducting people will lead to them going back to the zoo and freeing everyone. Because if they have to bring a bunch of people back anyway, they might as well right?

SU Critical is usually much better about it, it's at best a stupid vocal minority that hates those plotlines.
