Mind you, BJ from wolfenstein beating up the Scooby gang would be just about perfect. :allears:

The craziest part of that is that it's heavily implied that the robots mowed someone the gently caress down. Because when you think Scooby-Doo, you think "coldblooded murder".

The thing about the ending of Mystery Inc. was that not all the remnants of the corrupt Nibiru timeline were erased. Scooby and the Gang are still there and they bear his taint. Perhaps this is why mysteries still follow them wherever they go?

So now that I'm all caught up, is there any rhyme or reason as to when new Gumball episodes air, or is it like other CN shows where they just kind of appear without warning or fanfare every few months and there is no schedule?

There is a rhyme and reason. No one outside of programming knows what it is however. Ostensibly, it's when they figure they can maximize ratings and eyeballs. In reality, it looks like it's a bit all over the place. That being said, they seem to tend to premiere new episodes for a few shows at a time so as to maintain a constant level of hype overall. The exception seems to be when they run out of episodes for all of their shows to make any significant burst of premieres or during a "holiday period" where they'll just marathon or prepare specials.

I think a part of Cartoon Network's inconsistent scheduling so far is them realizing that the random weeks of premieres were giving them diminishing returns and they're just waiting for the production to get a good backlog. They're starting to have weekly new episodes again, though.

It's a huge dick move, but at least the crew knew of this for a month now and still produced all the episodes that were ordered, three seasons is pretty good, but wow that's an awful press release CN did.

I love how the fake MP had a gun and yet just resorted to crushing them with a bulldozer, or maybe it was some other kind of forklift.

Lets not forget trespassing on Area 51 without getting ventilated.

I'm always interested in what kind of humor translates across cultural boundaries, especially into Japan because I'm a horrible unwashed weeaboo. I ended up watching some Wander Over Yonder dub videos last night and it just seems really manic compared to what I imagine they're used to. Does anybody have any insight to that sort of stuff?

Yeah I suppose it's not any worse than all the jokes about MASCUMAX's MANHOOD in the old series, objectively speaking. But it's hard to be objective, and speaking subjectively, I was totally weirded out. :stare:
