I'd say the
other gem came around the middle of season 1. That's also the point where my appreciation for SU evolved from “cute and fun show” to “wow, this is epic”. Especially because all the previous episodes built up what was coming next.
By the way, I'm
finally beginning season 2 !

Yeah, I've finished Adventure Time's season 5, and Regular Show's season 3, and I want to catch up on other series before attacking the
Terrible Season 6 (and the gigantic bunch of episodes I have to watch for RS). So this August will be full Steven Universe and Wonder Over Yonder !

And I forgot how much SU could be funny sometimes. While being a very uplifting show, it has also a lot of moments of tension or sadness… So it strikes amazingly right when a character make a silly comment just after those!

And it never break the mood, somehow. The show admits that life can be pretty difficult, but it still continues, so let's enjoy it while we can.
Yeah it's absolutely cheesy, but I love that kind of spirit this show has!
