Yeah, no, there are a lot of people who don't like Pony Head. Personally, I'm not a huge fan, but I find that her entertainment value tends to fluctuate depending on the episode. In episodes that feature a lot of characters and are more humor driven, I think she can be entertaining. But anything that tries to be serious or focuses on her too much she gets annoying quickly. Basically I think she's best in small doses as a compliment to other characters, but grating when she's in focus.

Same.

I find she has some good moments, but overall I find her episodes to grate a bit.

I find Pony Head to be hit or miss depending on the episode. "Skooled" for example seemed greatly weakened by her presence. Granted that episode seemed more like a Bait and Switch in hindsight,

I really hate how people seem to think Ephebophilia is considered to be "Pedophilia but OK and Hunky Dory".

That was not what I meant, I was just being pedantic.

Daron Nefcy left some SVTFOE cards in Kyoto for a lucky fan to find. [1] [2]

That demon artwork looks like something out of Samurai Jack. (I think? I've never seen the show but that's the impression I get)

[up]At least two of them were dumped after the show became a hit because they were created by executive mandate.

Yeah, Marco had two male friends to I guess appeal to boys watching? It was that or prevent the inevitable “Star is a harem anime” jokes.

I am glad it became less like a school adventure series and focused more on the Myth Arc and the history of the Butterfly family.

Storyboard artist Sabrima Cotungo is saying season 4 is the final season.

"production on Star is ending" might just mean for the season.

Yeah, the finish line is in sight for pretty much every sub and main plot. It's time to think of ending.

Yeah, this series has been in concrete endgame mode for the back half of season three.

It'll be good to end at a peak level. Too many shows are allowed to just go on and on and on and they wear out their welcome

[up][up] really?

I've always felt that it needed at least 5 seasons. Between explaining Toffee...properly, the family lore, Ludo's dealings, the actual nature of Eclipsa...I just dunno if one season can cover all that.

[up]Maybe they'll do all that in Season 4, with small clues or lore for us to put the pieces together.

[up][up] I'm pretty confident that Toffee is wrapped up. Exploring him more means going back to a character who is dead just to fill in blanks for people who still have questions. The likelihood of it advancing the present narrative is low.

They did do a gag with Alfonzo and Ferguson in the background yelling something like "We're here!"

It would be cute to have a Take That! against the Sitcom Arch-Nemesis Brittany. They did something like that to Jeremey in "All Belts Are Off".

One thing I liked about this show that in many other programming the magical background and history would rarely be fully explored and the focus would be more on the high school drama. I know even though we did have typical teenage stuff like love triangles in the later seasons, I do say that the worldbuilding and myth arcs still stayed strong.

I do have to say that season one really is kind of a different show from what it would later become in the later episodes.

Or it would focus on keeping up a pointless Masquerade, and every episode would end like, "Phew, somebody else almost saw some magic!"

Also in any other show the parents would remain in the background and never delve into their history as much as they did with Moon, because I just loved it when focus was given on her and I hope she regains her sanity in the next season.
