What the audience says
Steven Universe sits near the top of English series on audience ratings. It carries an 8.4/10 on TMDB across 1,393 ratings — comfortably clear of the pack.
Is it worth starting?
This is 5 seasons deep — English animation with an action & adventure streak, fine for the whole family. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.
- Why
- Currently 8.4/10 from 1,391 ratings, which is a good sign this early.
- Skip if
- a backlog this size is the opposite of what you're after
- Best for
- A proper binge, once you've got the weeks for it
