Amen to that, and it's a testament to the show in that it's a great example of never judging a book by it's cover. Yes, it's silly, but it's also very heartfelt. I know plenty of people who could relate to the Gems; they're just that well written.
People can be quick to dismiss that which is weird or ostensibly silly. With SU, do it at your own peril. It's a show with a lot more heart than a passing glance might indicate.
Bingo, and the show has quite a lot of depth to it in terms of character and backstory. It's easy to dismiss it like I did at first; so glad that people really have been hyping it recently or else I would've missed it.
