Best line from Drinky Crow, [Paraphrased]:"This is no time for suicide! We're gonna get killed!" The violence is getting really tiring and dull, but Tony Millionaire and the absurd tone are almost selling DC.

Bah, Karin and Ururu are awesome. I also would like a spinoff. I always appreciated that Bleach could jump from serious to charmingly offbeat, trying to check back with other members of the cast.

I think all is forgiven now, AS. Everybody happy!

In addition to Cartoon Network somehow having audio problems the whole night (apparently only on my end, thanks Comcast), I didn't catch it on the Fix and ended up getting boned with the cuts here. :( Thanks for finding the ending on YouTube, Steiner. And yet the episode still tugged at my...

Evangelion is about how people drive each other apart, due to varying circumstances (mostly psychological). And it's real bleak about that. The message in Eureka Seven is pretty much about joining together and reconciliation, and really is a heck of a lot more optimistic and hopeful. I think...

I'm paraphrasing it from somewhere (Teen Titans?) but: "If you control the youth, you control the future." The show does have a theme of children's influences - from The Great Hero Thurston being taught in the schools, to the Gekko State's counter-culture following. I think it's just more of...

Tatsuki rules. The episode further convinces me she and Karin (from the last epsiode) have got to have something in store for them further down the line, considering the abilities and strength they show. Still makes me think Tatsuki might've been a better choice than Orihime to gain powers and...

I think I know what it is: They aren't real miniture sets, but trick photos of real places. I remember BoingBoing did a whole bunch of posts a while back on tilt-shift photography, the technique used to make real places have that miniature set look. Either Adult Swim dropped the money to get the...

I always did like how Don Kanonji is portrayed as sincere and (somewhat) genuine, rather than a complete charlatan. They had to compress it for TV time, but I liked the nods to the other characters. It gives me a bit of hope Tatsuki and Karin might develop powers too down the line and appear...

Kids do love Bender. He's educational and a giant toy!

Since Ray probably knows about Eureka's past, she can't believe Eureka (at least the kind of person she thinks Eureka is) could ever be a mother (remember that flashback of her opening fire on civilians). Or has the right to, especially over her. The difficulties Ray and Charles had trying to...

Although what the SBTB and Pee-Wee ads have over E7 is either people remembering watching the shows from their childhood, or it's so ironic/kitschy/bizarre it hooks people into watching it. While I don't know if the E7 ads really do much to grab people - it doesn't seem to suggest anything...

Tim and Eric rely too much on kitsch and craaaaazy faces and voices, and the Married News Team is the best example of taking that to the extreme.

The thing I don't get is what they are trying to accomplish other than blowing off some steam by whining. Do they think they're going to get people who tune in Sunday to watch Saturday by insulting them or some group that apparently isn't watching in the first place? It's getting to be a...

As much as I do have fond childhood memories of the show, I'm still kind of with the folks who have misgivings about it airing on the "Adult Swim" block. It's not necessarily about whether it's a quality show, or if the Live Action-to-Animation ratio squeeks by the cartoon format requirements...
