I find it strange saying that Steven Universe has depth... I mean it does but I grew up in the nintees and back then cartoons had exactly zero depth. The occasionally had morals to tell, and lessons to teach. Occasionally. But Depth. As in something beneath the afronted entertainment value and story-plotlines...

I'm still in shock by the concept. And the fact that the most cartoons daring to have depth are ones with a high comedy value (avatar, adventure time, uncle grandpa, steven universe) is honestly really shocking. More serious cartoons and anime yeah sure, avatar definitely; but fifteen minute mini-sodes with this much humor and slapstick.

I actually hope UG crosses over with All the nicktoons at some point, simply to say "We're challenging everything you thought you knew about cartoons!" And I hope they also include cross-series references in a more cannon way too. I mean there's no reason I can think of why at the very least merchandise from the other series can't be seen. And spliced certainly has potential for crossover.
