Sym-Bionic Titan is a great show, and Episode 10, "Lessons in Love" was no exception. Well-paced, funny, unpredictable. But the show is rated PG and airs at 8:00 p.m. and reairs at 8:30 a.m. on Cartoon Network.

Watch Sym-Bionic Titan

1. Wired interviewed Genndy Tartakovsky about Sym-Bionic Titan (which was excellent).

2. And the producers of Batman the Brave and the Bold talk about how much the toy company influences plot decisions: "The toy company wanted to see Starro as much as possible, because they were going to put a big push behind that character."

3. A restaurant in New York got a "B" and modified the sign to say "Best." Via.
