God, this show. Sniff. That the cluster is essentially a bunch of hurt beings unable to stop hurting others because of their situation, being inspired to reach state that can work for them? Resolving a great conflict that seems like it requires violence but ends up not? That's f'in beautiful.

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Agreed! This show is good at resolving conflict in unexpected ways!

“She can live on the moon.” The foreshadowing is REAL

[@JoeSnoe126]

I think you're very right, the universe being lonely/bored/wanting a friend is such a deep theme of this entire story and not everyone is that quick to appreciate how complex something so simple can be. The importance of an individual as well as the collective... Your Gem Drill discussion left zero crumbs

[@revangerang]

37:43 Steven is referencing sitcoms like Friends lmao. He actually makes references like this a lot, and I love how much of a kid he still is with is view of the world being mostly informed by media

[@josephblanc1729]

"She could go live on the moon" 😳

[@palettesdump]

HAHAHAH THE LAUGH I LET OUT

[@haileycleveland6107]

Little did he know……

12:09 RIP to that doggo and all the headphone users💀

[@nyarla-thot-ep]

Oooo such a great start to season three!! I believe that seasons 2 and 3 were originally planned to be combined as 1 but instability from the network about approving more episodes led to the split. The season's biggest hitters are pretty stacked at the latter episodes which makes dividing them up kind of hard. My personal recommendations for whoch episodes can be watched alone and which should be done with indi would be as follows: • 4, 5, 6, 7 are all fine to watch alone • 8 and 9 definitely watch with Indi!! • 10, 11, 12, 13 are all okay to watch alone • 14 and 15 would be good with indi • 16 could be good with indi too but way less importantly imo • 17, 18, 19 could go either way. Would be fun to watch together but I wouldn't say they're the most urgent. • 20/21 (double length) MUST BE TOGETHER it's so important!! • 22 is okay alone but 23 might be good with indi • 24 has some BIG importance and 25 is the finale which would be nice together but is a little less important as joint ones than some of the others

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Ok we'll definitely take this into consideration!

[@Jygerthe2nd]

"Activating triple tip penetration mode!" You will never convince me that the writers didn't know EXACTLY what they were doing there. XD

[@christinaray1207]

I've been watching your videos a lot lately and i just want to say that Indi's hair is SO flipping gorgeous! I also love both your sensitive/intuitive commentary! 💛

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Thank you! 🫶🏾

[@monkeybusiness1039]

I think the implication with the bubble is as they were all bubbled they morphed into one large bubble.

[@Rawrmuffin0]

It’s almost like a security vest you use on dogs. Great analogy !!

[@Peridot5xg]

IT'S BATTLE TIME

[@Fe0ryde]

Did you just say a tiny little tinkerbell gem... oh shit 💀

[@Ari.x22]

HAHAH💧

[@wilhelmhedin8845]

You must watch episode 8 together for the feels. And the beautiful history.

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Will do!

[@wilhelmhedin8845]

That "I love you." is so sweet. ❤

[@Leechington]

Love that you actually predicted they'd solve the cluster problem with love and woowoo

[@-i_own_you_-]

A tiny little gem like tinkerbell??? OH boiiii👀👀

[@SputnikSpyglass]

🤔

[@baraxor]

"...come home to a wacky roommate"

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Love that foreshadowing!

[@kaylagaymon4873]

23:48 The cluster is now in a big bubble. Steven has a great pure of heart 😍😍😍💗💗💗

[@wilhelmhedin8845]

The cluster coming together is the strength of the collective. Beautiful power of the many working in tandem.

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Totally! There's some great symbolism in this show.

[@revangerang]

5:34 You're totally right! But bc future vision she knew he needed to stay at the farm, and that was a convenient excuse (tho ofc you don't know that yet at this point in the video lol)

[@ColinTedford]

31:39 It's hard to focus on who wrote the episodes because the dang title card with their names on it goes by so fast! When you brought up the idea of the Cluster fusing with Steven, I was like, "Whoa, that would be *wild*" - but the show pulls out so many wild things that I could see it happening. It would fit with the show's habit of following thru on the consequences of things in ways that are surprising (in the context of how TV shows often are) - like we saw just a bit earlier with the Watermelon Steven society. And tangential to that, I love the smaller bits of continuity they throw in that make the show feel so solid, like Peridot saying she should repair the hole she made in the barn.

[@gowonfan12]

THEEEE two-parter of all time 😭

[@ethanburke1635]

There are games featuring most of the fusions in a turn based RPG style that were released alongside S3 and S5 if I remember rightly? They’re super fun!

[@DaZebraffe]

24:27 "And and...And is there no way to break out of a bubble?" Not from the inside. At least, not unless they've already taken their physical form. As long as they're in their gem, a bubbled Gem is in perfect suspension and has no way out without somebody on the outside breaking the bubble for them. They will remember nothing that happened during their time in the bubble.

[@Ari.x22]

YESSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSS 🙌🥳

[@wtimmins]

'We believe in you, Steven.'

[@downbeatdialga1341]

10:25 there are a few Steven Universe videogames with sprites of the most of the characters. They’re kinda mid from what I’ve seen, but maybe you’d like them! There are spoilers in them though, so it would probably be best to wait till you’ve finished the show.

[@pieflower6419]

I've 100% Save The Light and nearly finished Unleash The Light, and I love them! The majority of people agree Save The Light is the best out of the three, so if you have to pick one I'd pick that one.

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Cool, I'll definitely check them out after I finish the show!

[@kimboowhochoo]

love ur dog and cat 😜

[@-i_own_you_-]

Alexandrite vs Malachite

[@Tsuku_yome]

The video has no audio for me :"(

[@SputnikSpyglass]

Try refreshing! I had the same issue but now it seems to be working.

[@Tsuku_yome]

​@@SputnikSpyglassNow it's back to normal! Thanks 😊
