Steven Universe and also Steven Universe

Cut for recent spoilers: "Change Your Mind" was *amazing* and one of the most powerful things I've ever seen on television. Steven's FACE as he turns back into himself, and the song at the end, oh wow. I love so much that this is the kid TV my kids get to watch. I mean, when I was their age we had, like, ALF. (Okay, and when I was younger we had Mr. Rogers, but I think I've done the "Steven Universe is the fusion of Saturday morning cartoons and Mr. Rogers" enthusing before, so I won't go on about that again.)
Also Steven Universe: I looked through the 2018 episodes to see what I might like to nominate for Dramatic Short and came up with Lars of the Stars/Jungle Moon, A Single Pale Rose, and Reunited, the latter two of which were already on The Spreadsheet which is a good sign that I'm successfully converging with other SU fans on episode choice. And Josh and the kids also picked those, when I asked their opinions. Promise from She-Ra is also on The Spreadsheet; Junie prefers the finale but I think I agree with the spreadsheeter. That would be my four remaining slots after Dirty Computer, shutting out Dragon Prince, but I'm not sure what episode of that I would have picked anyways.
(ETA: Lars of the Stars and Jungle Moon have different writers/directors, so I think they count as different episodes. As much as I adore Lars of the Stars I decided to put Jungle Moon on the wiki and will go with it as my nominee, it's the one that got an Emmy nomination and thus maybe it's slightly more likely to have other nominations?)
