Steven Universe - Episode 5 & 6 Reaction! (First-Time Viewing!)

[@spookycircuits455]

The show really loves its body horror and I respect that. It’s easy to forget with all the pretty backgrounds and music.

[@MegaChickenfish]

We'll never forget Frybo. _No matter how hard we try-bo._

[@SianiLane]

Weren't people afraid of it before it started attacking them?

[@Peridotwo]

*[Good one!]*

[@manwoman571]

ye

[@kupaakaleo137]

I really forgot how traumatizing Season 1 is for Steven, like giant bug monsters, massive eyeballs crashing to earth, demonic breakfast, horrific sentient mascots, parasitic body horror -- AND WE'RE NOT EVEN INTO THE BIG STUFF YET 🤣

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Lmao I love this 😂

[@dkisausome]

And don't forget Cat Fingers. Can't leave our Cat Fingers...

[@Jo-de3st]

Greg reacting so negatively to shapeshifting hits different on rewatch man...

[@insatiable._.cryptid4985]

Cat finger is probably one of the creepiest episodes of season 1 The scene of him walking through the car wash is always unsettling

[@jjaa_joyjoyartist]

Y'all reacting to two of the most traumatic episodes of the show (other than keeping it together and nightmare hospital) in one go is a level of bravery (or ignorance) I need

[@katethevampire]

Even then I'd argue that cat fingers is creepier

[@jjaa_joyjoyartist]

@@katethevampire Creepier than Nightmare hospital but keep it together has the disturbing factor to me

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Yeah even though I walked in knowing almost nothing, these episodes managed to shock me 😂

[@Enteringdullsville]

Frybo: Steven validates my childhood fear of mascot costumes Cat Fingers: Steven takes a bath

[@CJBurgandy]

Ronaldo's blog "Keep Beach City Weird" was on Tumblr. I wouldn't suggest Alec look for it because it does have spoilers, but it used to update along with the new episodes and was pretty cute. Also loved how optimistic Alec was before Cat Fingers, guessing what it would be about. This episode is so notoriously creepy. I'm more with Lucas on the job thing. I know more people who just go through the motions rather than enjoy their work. PeeDee is so young to be feeling that way though. :( Fun Fact: Peedee and Ronaldo are named after McDonald mascots, with 1 letter difference each. The original mascot Speedee and Ronald who later replaced him. Again: Congrats on the wedding

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: I love that so much. Anything that creators do to contribute to the meta of a show is the coolest thing to me. Gravity Falls was great with this too

[@pundertalefan4391]

That's cool! :-)

[@KingsBard]

I had no idea about that, that's so cool

[@Peridotwo]

*[Who would even want to eat "fries" after such a terrifying experience?!]*

[@spookycircuits455]

I remember when keep beach city weird was an actual Tumblr blog run by the crew that updated with the episodes. If Ronaldo took a picture for it you would see it there.

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Ohhhh that's so cool!

[@cloman4152]

This is great. Your analysis of even the earliest episodic themes really tell me that you will fall more in love with the show as you go. Cant wait for more!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Literally can't wait for how good I know it's gonna get

[@TriXJester]

Ah, yes. The tradition of Steven Universe's ~Trauma Episodes~ begins here.

[@Jason820]

Just rewatched these two episodes and, wow, I thought I remembered Cat Fingers. I was wrong. I did not remember Cat Fingers.

[@chromaticdreams618]

I admire this show for immediately throwing its audience into the horror pit with two back-to-back chaos nightmare fuel episodes. XD (I genuinely ADORE Cat Fingers as an episode for a number of later-plot relevant reasons that will go unspoiled in these comments for a while, though.)

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Totally agree, this was an amazing two-episode ride 😂

[@tritiumH3]

So... here's a place the show is willing to go.

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: I was ready but I also wasn't, haha. Also heads up that we had to move this premiere to Saturday at 1PM Eastern time!

[@Jo-de3st]

It is a sign of things to come

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

@@dancajh thank you so much for asking! There’s a button on our KZbin homepage (and I think it should be next to our video titles?) that says “membership” - there’s two prices that each give you different perks 🥳🙏

9:02 But Mr Fryman isn’t capitalist, he’s what Marx called la petite bourgeoisie.

[@ArtoriasB]

Congrats on the marriage and always fun to see a new episode. This show is so great and seeing your reactions are so fun

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Thanks so much!!

[@bmoak]

Steven news pretty much everyone in Beach City, at least the ones who live or work near the boardwalk. The townies are introduced in dribs and drabs over the season.

[@bmoak]

knows

[@171QA]

Man, you’re whipping these out fast.

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Haha yeah, tried for a quick start to get rolling before Halloween month pulls us away for a bit! But plenty more on the way in November and beyond!

[@Blaikser]

God, the catfingers episode leads into some really interesting theories that I wanna talk about when you guys get to later reveals in the show. Congratulations on the marriage by the way!!!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Thanks so much! Don't forget because I wanna hear those theories!

[@ai_named_oliver7179]

I remember being absolutely TRAUMATIZED by frybo. now he looks a lot less scary than I remember. he can't hurt me anymore >:D

[@jaistashu1560]

For a moment, I thought the final joke was a reference to Cat Noir's "Cataclysm" attack in Miraculous Ladybug (realized a second later that--of course--that it had nothing to do with ML; it just sounded so similar).

[@dkisausome]

Yayyy, you got it back up! I had to skip this the first time, since it was taken down at the time. I haven't commented much as I've played catch up, but it's been interesting rewatching the early episodes through your reactions. I kind of had that part of me that low-key dismissed season 1 as filler, feeling the show doesn't get "deep" till later. But through your series I've really been re-appreciating just how good season 1 is in it's own right, and its now clear to me season 1 was already kind of deep in it's own way.

[@elayna___]

yay!! i'll be there!! i've been really into steven universe lately haha

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Love it! Just a note that we had to move this one to Saturday at 1PM Eastern time!

[@elayna___]

@@JesterBrosCartoonTheater oh okay! thanks for letting me know!

[@sir-ani8927]

Both episodes are nasty and I love them for it

[@eppoif1]

I really like hearing what you guys think in your post episode discussions and I'm so happy y'all are enjoying it.

[@lee_just_draws6661]

Cat finger and fry-Bo ✨traumatized me✨ when I was a kid. They will try to be forgotten

[@LordTelperion]

Don't worry about talking over the show, we're here for the shared experience of your experience, you can give your analysis after the ride. Just take notes. :-)

[@midoriya-shonen]

I'm LIVING for your excitable reactions. You're so fun to watch!!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: What a lovely comment, thank you!!

[@kels530]

Really liked the editing for this video! Funnily enough I wasn’t even planning on watching it live but I guess I just sensed something because I had the urge to make a bowl of popcorn and then the notification popped up in discord. I can’t wait till we get to the later episodes of season one there’s some real ….. gems…. In this season. Alright I’ll see myself out LOL

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Omg I'm always here for a great pun 😂 And thanks, I'm so impressed with Lucas's editing!

[@Daiskken]

i didn't expext the 2 body horror episodes to bring so much laughs

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: That's HBCT for ya 😂

[@InkyPetrel]

I love your reactions to this!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Haha, I appreciate that you want to watch quicker because I'm right there with you 😂 We'll probably stick with two at a time for now just because it's less time consuming per video, but I wouldn't totally rule out faster releases if the channel ever grows enough for us to put more time & resources into it!

[@zerokura]

The pacing of season one beginning seem quick some of these episodes I felt were later.

[@karsenloveskartoons]

i'm loving these reactions! also, the cat episode really freaked meowt ...i'm so sorry...

[@MegaChickenfish]

If I had a nickle for every time pants in a cartoon came alive and turned on their masters, I'd have two nickels. _Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice._ (Jimmy Neutron for the curious.)

[@timeneses]

Congrats Alec!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Thanks]: Thanks, T-mo!!

[@basiclyanything109]

I'm CATting around.

[@Swcher]

I forgot about all the body horror in SU

[@elayna___]

i can't wait for you guys to get further into the show!!

[@rebellibrarian]

Congratulations 🎊 and best wishes!

[@elbruces]

These 2 episodes are SU's Franz Kafka phase.

[@juniorbeltran6117]

we didnt forgot about frybo or cat fingers we wanted to forget do's episodes

[@SianiLane]

Oh dear this really is a heck of a one two punch...

[@jedijacpenguin]

Congratulations Alec! 👏

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Thanks so much!!

[@Dark-Blue-Diamond]

I love your Steven Universe reactions

[@diaryofnathi764]

So I recently found this channel a few weeks ago though your Helluva boss reactions and I loved them, I love steven universe as well and I wanted to suggest you watch 'Metal family' it's also on KZbin and it's an interesting show

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Cool, I'll throw it onto our recommendation list. Thanks for watching, hope that we get more Helluva Boss soon!

[@maxdon2001]

Great reaction! These episodes were creepy!

[@rashenditrash]

Lucas’s face because he knows.

[@gray4988]

I really can't wait until the show picks up!

[@pundertalefan4391]

Congratulations! :-) I legit have a crush on Mr. Mistophilees. I'm not a furry, I just like him. XD

[@danielouellette1258]

That episode was kinda creepy

[@pundertalefan4391]

Very gross. But it kind of does its job. I want fries now. XD

[@landosalemchainsaw]

8:28 An amalgam of capitalism and the American fast food diet.

[@zozomidnightzone]

I can't wait for u to meet Connie!

[@glitch9791]

Happy marriage

[@squidwardtentacles8659]

Could you guys react to a new tv series called don't hug me I'm scared. It's a comedy horror about sesame street like puppets. :)

[@CreepyNess1234]

I know you guys probably won't see this and you have too many shows to watch. But PLEASE give Lego Monkie Kid a chance! It is a surprising bit of good animation, writing, and actually dives into Chinese folklore that I've never seen before. Either way, love your content!

[@JesterBrosCartoonTheater]

[Alec]: Haha, I try to keep up with the comments so I do in fact see it! This one has actually come up a few times so I'll add it to our growing list of recommendations. Not sure if we'll do it soon, but we hope to be doing HBCT for years so never say never. Also, thanks for the kind words!

[@CreepyNess1234]

@@JesterBrosCartoonTheater I'm so happy I never thought you would respond! I fully understand that you have a lot to watch. I'm just happy it's something you know about. Thank you for bringing a smile to everyone's faces, and I hope to keep watching for years to come!

[@kay-jay1581]

Ooof Ronaldo😂 Love the reaction I have watched Steven Universe episodes multiple times but this is probably some of my least favorite shorts.

[@ATAS18.]

Guys, the cat monster part wasn't funny

[@mistingwolf]

Frybo is definitely my least favorite episode; it's the only one I routinely skip.

[@tacomaster49]

[@diaryofnathi764]

I hate the cat episode
