On one hand I'm incredibly glad that I purchased this DVD because I don't watch TV regularly and this was a way for me to watch the episodes in my own time. It's good quality, and it includes the pilot episode as a bonus feature, which is cool. I couldn't get it to play on my computer's disc drive, but that may be different for you; it worked just fine in a regular DVD player, anway.

On the other hand I'm pretty - actually, really - disappointed that these aren't consecutive episodes, since I was under the impression that what I was going to be buying was a chunk of the first season. Which I guess it was, but not the way I thought it was going to be? I don't like that this is very commonly the way that cartoons series are packaged and sold - cut up into weird chunks and what have you.

This disc contains episodes 1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 18, 19, and 22 (going by the wikipedia page for the show). Watching this disc was really my first time watching the show so I didn't know until later that I wasn't seeing everything. It skipped some of what I now know to be my favorites, and if I had known that this was the way the DVD was going to be arranged I would have probably just waited until I had some way of purchasing the complete first season, all together. I'm still glad I bought it, don't get me wrong; I just would have liked to know what was up.

Cartoon Network: Steven Universe - Gem Glow (V1)

Great show all around, and a nice collection of episodes (plus the pilot!). However, the episodes are out of order, and some have not been included at all. This show has many little "hints" that it drops in each episode, and when you skip an episode, or play them out of order, the greater plot can become confusing. I wish Cartoon Network would just release Season 1, Season 2, and leave it at that.

I bought a copy of this DVD, and now I'm back to buy 3 more and ship them to my younger relatives as presents. I'm not even kidding. It's that good.

I've been a fan of cartoons for decades now, and this without a doubt my favorite. This show is incredible. It's great for both kids and adults, as the entire show is shown through the eyes of Steven, a cheerful young boy with untapped magical powers.

The songs are delightful, the characters are colorful and vibrant, and the stories are a masterful blend of happy-and-sad, magical-and-real, childlike-and-intense.

Yes, I hope cartoon network releases the entire season, in order, on DVD. But in the meantime, I have no qualms about purchasing this excellent mix-pack. Well, purchasing it 4x :D

I absolutely adore the show and characters. The mystery is fun, the jokes are hilarious, and Grunkle Stan is a joy every time he's on screen. I would be careful watching the show on this DVD though; the episodes are very clearly out of order. This appears to be an issue with most Cartoon Network DVD collections, especially with Adventure Time. Make sure to have an episode guide up with you if you want to watch the show in correct, chronological order!

One of the best series on T.V. right now. Great art. And I love that it has a positive message with a strong female cast. My biggest gripe is the DVD format. Why does Cartoon Network insist on mixing up the order of the episodes and short-changing buyers with partial seasons? With a show like this where story progression is already a little confusing it only makes things more difficult for the kids to follow. Come on Cartoon Network. Everyone gripes about your DVD's. Listen to the customers and give us entire seasons or at least episodes in chronological order people.
