Also watch for the superb animation done on the show. I say that with no hyperbole either. Our animation director even told us. Every other department of the show (storyboard, layout, etc.) has had to be overhauled at least once. However, the director and the producers liked the aniamtion we did right from the start. They had a few minor revisions for us but overall we're batting .990 So, I'd say that's definitely a good reason to watch on Monday morning.
