UG still has 22 episodes left to air (technically it and clarence were "cancelled" at the same time, as neither were renewed past their 3rd production season; though UG's ending sooner as it began production sooner)

I was enjoying We Bare Bears right up until Charlie. I despise Charlie. The "desperately stupid and obnoxious" character type is one I loathe and I just stopped watching the show all together.

He plays for the dreamers that forgot how to dream, and the lovers that forgot how to love.
Thinking on events in Star Vs a little, I'm hoping that Dennis plays a large part in Season 3. It seems to me that having the one person in his family that he can stand trying to help him may help Ludo fight off Toffee a little more powerfully considering otherwise the closest thing to a friend he's really had that he hasn't tried to take advantage of (He burned his bridges with Buff Frog way too severely to count him) is Moon Butterfly. I could see Dennis being instrumental in breaking the barrier between monsters and the Mewni royal family as well, with Star being stuck on the run with her mother, Kevin's good nature and worry about his big bro may soften Star on Ludo a little as well. Ludo's only a Monster by genus after all, really he's just a wayward avarian with an inferiority complex. The only real monster in the traditional sense, (i.e. a complete bastard), has been Toffee.

I don't know about Dennis specifically (I don't think that's really a spoiler, but I'll roll with it), but I do think Monster-Mewman relations are going to be a major focus of Season 3. It's been boiling in the background all the way from Season 1's Lobster Claws and Mewnipendence Day, got some serious nods throughout season 2 (Especially in the Buff Frog episodes), and with Star going back to Mewni there's almost no question it's going to become a major focus of the plot, and probably intertwine with whatever Toffee's up to.

We Bare Bears is cute but it's the kind of show where after about 20 episodes I just fell off of watching it because I felt like I had already seen everything it had to offer. Not every show has to have serialized plots and world-ending stakes but at that point the show just started to slide from my mind like teflon whenever I saw it was yet another episode about Panda being an awkward loveshy weeaboo or Grizz failing to understand basic human things like a fuzzy Amelia Bedelia.

They started doing more of the young Bears plots and they seem a lot more interesting or at least more tolerable

I get what you mean. It's trying to be Rocko's Modern Life with the focus on awkward social interactions etc, but the writing isn't quite funny enough.

I wouldn't say that - Rocko got hella dark in a way that isn't in WBB's wheelhouse, like the episode where Bev Bighead starts inviting Rocko over to do odd jobs because she's feeling like Ed is ignoring her, and it's obvious to everyone but Rocko that she's trying to have an affair with him.

Apparently Transformers Minicons and Justice League Action is still around. You just gotta get up around 6 am to catch them. I'm amazed Hasbro still lets CN do this to them as I don't think they're really getting any ad revenue from the show more than general 30 year old fans and kids that watch movies.

Then they thankfully changed it back to magic, and her being made of half magic from her grandma's side. I don't care what anyone says, Omniverse was a good series.

Remember that time Ben 10K came back except he wasn't married, acted exactly like Ben did at 16 and his power was to use any Alien's power without transforming at all?

Remember in Omniverse where he's finally a slightly more chill version of the Ben 10K we had seen before and he had the power to willingly fuse all his aliens into the dopest combinations??

Technically only the most recent series is a reboot, the previous three series are all continuations of the original

The live action movies are kinda weird on that they are both sorta canon to the shows, but are also considered their own universe

The one I saw, with the Power Rangers knockoff villain, Race Against Time, was OK. They changed a few voices to be kinda weird but they had some cute scenes with the different aliens, like Grey Matter, that I appreciated. The villain was terrible but I kinda liked the casting in general.

With Season 3's intro focused on non-Earth dimensions, the theme song is now from Marco's point of view.

15 seconds of the new intro for Star vs leaked in really bad quality, and the fanbase is up in arms about it (mad at the person who leaked it).

I watched it, and came out of it excited to see it in actually good quality.

Don't know what people are complaining about myself. As leaks go, this was just about perfect. The quality is wretched enough that everyone will want to see the real thing, half the footage is missing so the people who showed up still got an exclusive look, and what we can see has enough clues and hints to fuel buzz and speculation for a month.

I think the reason the fanbase is up in arms over it is because they showed it at a con and they warned everyone in the room that if the footage got posted on the internet, it would discourage them from giving these sort of sneak peeks ever again.

Which seems like an unrealistic and kind of stupid expectation to me, I mean, like you said, this is pretty much perfectly timed for generating buzz and doesn't really give away all that much.

I expect if their warning hadn't been so dire, we'd have footage of the whole intro from five different angles. With any luck, the creators understand that this is the best result they could have hoped for.
