If he didn't already say that in the episode, that would've been "something"...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.It's his debut episode...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.His focus episode had his entire spiel about jobs that sounded like it came straight out of a middle-aged broken-spirited office worker's mouth, but thinking about it Peedee wasn't necessarily defining himself by work, he just thought it was the only/best way to get his father's respect and attention... I think. I should watch that episode again.
Side note, thinking about it more and I just realized that the psyches and thoughts of the human characters were never seriously delved into as much as the Gems. I understand the boardie episodes became the go-to breather later on, but barring certain characters and episodes, what lied under their surface characteristics was almost never touched upon, making them a lot more two-dimensional.
Jawbreakers on sale for 99¢Yeah...that's not at all what the episode was about.
Even though he went into a rant about what a taxing job does to a person, the whole conflict with him was that he didn't want to upset his dad by...asking not to be Frybo.
It's not really serious.

So I finally got around to watching the movie.
I really enjoyed it and the songs were great.
But was it clarified anywhere why Spinal's plan didn't kill a bunch of people?
From what I can tell the plan succeeds. Unless there was meant to be a final step once the poison was in the ground by the gem machine.
Also I have an issue with the fact enough poison to kill all organic life on a planet being in the ground is treated as a non-issue or inconvenience at the end.
Deprivation I guess, it'd kill all organic life in the ground directly as well as any sapient thing that touches it directly, but only by proxy kill anything else after all the trees and plants died.
But the reason it didn't kill "anyone" is because they shouldn't have made it explode.

Check out my art if you notice.I mean if it was just a matter of spreading the poison far enough, it would need to be orders of magnitude more lethal than what was shown. Forget Greg surviving when some splashes on his arm, if it hit the open air, the vapor would kill everything within a mile.

Peedee is his name. And the last time he had any inkling of spotlight he was working at his own french fry business using Dewey's old van

Prettiest Meta Knight Gijinka, nglIt's especially strange considering he's only the third character they bothered to cast with a young voice actor. I think the crew didn't have any ideas for what to do with him, but were too attached to let him totally become a background character.
On a related note, I'm now questioning if Steven was that outgoing by the beginning of the series. It seems like all his friends were people who worked at the stores he frequented. He actually had no idea who Sour Cream or Buck were, and only knew Jenny as Kiki's sister (presumably because she does deliveries and Steven just walked to Fish Stew Pizza).
I think he was merely meant to be the Foil of Steven as a regular grumpy cynical guy to Steven's magical optimist and cheerful personality.
But then his VA turned out to be too busy to be a major character I guess, because him having a focus episode very early on the series screamed: "Secondary Character Foil to Steven right here!"
Prettiest Meta Knight Gijinka, nglIt's Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism — there's a distinction between plant-plants, and the sapient plants that Steven creates. Though Steven did take a bite of a watermelon Steven's "guts"....

I'm forgetting the exact line, but—
