The word hiatus is not something new to "Steven Universe" fans. The animated TV series has taken long breaks in the past, and although it is quite frustrating when the show comes back from its break, the episodes are always worth the wait. This time, though, it is rumored that the show will not come back at all.

Cartoon Network stopped airing new episodes after "Room for Ruby" which aired on March 10. The episode shows Steven being very determined to welcome a Ruby that falls to Earth. The following week was supposed to be a Lion episode, and it was scheduled to be aired on March 23.

Episode 19 is the first episode in a while that highlights Lapis. She has been trying really hard to accept Earth as her home, and she has finally come to terms with that fact. She said that she is still working on trying to be okay, and critics point out that this is a valid portrayal of someone who has dealt with trauma. The show has always been praised for being realistic.

According to Celebeat, there is no return date yet for "Steven Universe" Season 4. Although fans are getting used to the show's long breaks, the recent one is particularly scary because talks about the show being canceled are getting more and more louder.

Some say that the show will be back next month, but Cartoon Network is yet to confirm this. Some Reddit users commented that the network should just offer streaming service so that those who want to watch previous episodes can just do it online.

It is said that the show has 26 episodes planned. Some fans joked that "Steven Universe" is going to become just a one-year thing because the network only airs the show during summer. Fans would have to stay tuned for the official announcement of Cartoon Network.
