i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.
two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!

I would like to gently remind people that before season 4 there was a text leak going around that said Will had his eyes on a Californian boy named “Fernando.” Anyone can say anything and say they have a “source.”

Imagine for a moment that reincarnation is real... and now imagine senior, gray muzzle Vasco rescuing a sickly albino horse who seems very frightened and uncomfortable with the concept of being a horse. Vasco is too old and frail to ride anymore, as you've mentioned in the past if i remember correctly, but he takes this horse in.
No one at the stable can even make eye contact with this pale steed without its ears pinning back and its eyes threatening to bulge out of its head. However, Vasco visits every day he is physically able to, so he can gently comb its mane and tail and handfeed it oats and hay, since it refuses to eat otherwise.
Vasco doesn't give the horse a name, but in a voice soft enough for the two of them to hear, he calls it various old pet names only he should know. He swears the horse's eyes light up at his words despite not fully believing the possibility.
Regardless, they comfort each other.

this might be an unpopular opinion (or idk maybe it's not, i've only sparingly been traversing the helluva boss tag) but i don't think i want stolitz to make up in the next episode.
maybe this is just me being a lover of the ~torturously slow~ burn, but i'd like to see this get drawn out a little.
having them fight and start (only barely start!!) to get their issues out in the open was a good and necessary move, writing-wise . . . and it's very, very important to me that this doesn't get resolved too easily. their issues are SO complex and need to be treated with time and care.
now, i definitely want to see them make progress in the next episode (which unfortunately could be similar to the progress they made in full moon in that it might be non-linear, aka more pain before the healing, OR it could be a step towards understanding one another without being ready for a relationship - there's many forms it could take). my point is, it's hard for me to see a situation where them 100% making up by the end of the next episode would feel satisfying.
bring on the angst, bitches.
it'll only make the eventual happy ending sweeter.

Rewatching succession it really is wild to see Kendall and Shiv convince themselves over and over again that they can "fix ATN/Waystar from the inside" only to completely abandon their morals the minute it gives them a strategic advantage.
When they're on the outside it's an endless diatribe about how evil and rotten the company is to its core, but the second they get the slightest whiff of power they suddenly decide the problems are actually really manageable and that with the right leadership it could be a force for good, and like...the saddest part is that they genuinely seem to believe that.
