Oh, this is going to be so cool! We went up into space, now it’s time to prepare for our trip underground. (By the way, does anyone still doubt the Pearl servant theory?)
Immediate reaction to When it Rains
Well this episode turned out to be just about everything we could have possibly hoped for. We learned so much, got a lot of character development packed into a very short time without feeling overwhelming, and got some serious promises for what’s going to happen next.
It’s just… Wow. There was an idle prediction made about the Cluster, but it’s tough to realize that it was right.
A special shout-out to the responders to our Tumblr post about predictions for When it Rains: everyone was in agreement that Steven and Peridot would bond well, and they did. No fake-outs from the Crewniverse this time. Go team, and GO GREEN MOM!
What to expect from When it Rains
It would be perfect for When it Rains to be a character episode. Peridot has only just moved in with Steven, so naturally the next episode should focus on her as a character. The Crystal Gems are out of the picture for most of this episode, if the commercial and preview are to be believed, so it looks like a nice episode focused on Peridot and Steven is what we’re getting.
Of course Peridot’s ominous “it’s happening!” makes it sound like we’ll be getting a healthy dose of exposition along with our character episode. It’s still a bit early to unleash the Cluster though, so we’re expecting a few more episodes building it up before it’s finally released.
New episode: Back to the Barn will air on October 8, 2015
There are still no real re-runs scheduled for next week (so far), but the premiers will continue! Back to the Barn is airing at 5:30 PM EDT on October 8.

The gang return to the family barn to build awesome robots.

GC13, Ken, Sophia, and Hunter do a little bit of late-night recording to discuss the very exciting new episode of Steven Universe: Catch and Release.
Who could fail to be thrilled by the prospect of Peridot becoming Green Mom? Nobody, not even a heartless podcaster who doesn’t love Centipeetle.
There’s just so much to wonder about: the form the Cluster will take, the fate of Peridot’s limb enhancers, and why Peridot is so adorable and smol! The Crystal Gems look awesome, and Peridot is one playful kitty.
A special shoutout to some fan art: MisterGrey’s fan art of our Pearl and some homeworld Pearls was mentioned in this episode of the podcast, so check it out. Aren’t they all just adorbable?

What could Catch and Release mean?
Oh, very exciting times. Very exciting times. Catch and Release was a big episode. What could be waiting for us later in the series, after this?
What we learned from Catch and Release
Oh boy, the lore marches on, doesn’t it? Sadie’s Song may have been a break from thinking about lore stuff, but Catch and Release makes up for it. There’s so much to speculate about, but let’s find out what we learned, shall we?
Preview for When it Rains
This one looks… Well if you’ve been watching Cartoon Network you’ve seen the commercials that give off an Invader Zim vibe (specifically The Wettening), but now it… Well let’s not force this episode to bear the weight of lore expectations; a character episode is what we need right now.
