Cartoon network's hilarious animated series "Steven Universe" has faced several rumors which suggested that the show was up for cancellation due to low ratings. However, recent speculations suggest that the show will, in fact, return on TV for its fourth season just before November ends.

Previous rumors have implied that "Steven Universe" will not be renewed for season 4 due to the show's declining popularity that led to low ratings. Because of this, it is said that the show's producers have been having doubts whether to renew the show or not.

Fortunately for "Steven Universe" fans, it seems like they will be getting what they want. Even though the show experienced a rather long break, show creator Rebecca Sugar assures fans that the series will be back for season 4 as she shared a song that will be used in one of the episodes for "Steven Universe" season 4.

Furthermore, specific speculations suggest that "Steven Universe" will be airing its fourth season this Thursday, November 17th. If the rumors are true, then fans will now be able to witness "Steven Universe's" premiere episode that will be focusing on the Gem Harvest.

On another note, as the release of "Steven Universe" season 4 comes closer, leaks about the show's plot has spread around the internet. What's more is that some leaks even detailed the episode titles for the first four episodes of the season.

For the first episode of "Steven Universe" season 4 — titled "Gem Harvest 1" — fans will find Steven visiting Lapiz Lazuli and Peridot's farm. In their farm, Steven will find several pumpkins and other plants, one of which will be brought to life with the use of a Gem.

The first episode will be followed by episodes titled: "Gem Harvest 2," which will air on Thursday, Nov. 17, "Steven Universe, Three Gems and a Baby," and "The New Crystal Gem," which will both air on Dec. 1.
