Surprisingly, even with Pinkie Pie being my least favorite pony, it's been a good episode for me. It's not one of the best, but certainly great.

[Mr. Bigglesworth]

Tbh I'm just happy to see some actual personality outta Pinkie Pie. In pretty much every episode since season 3 started she's just been the random one who doesn't even need to be there. In Three's A Crowd she was just there to get excited over furniture and chase a balloon. Twice. Was there even any point to her being in that episode then? Not really.

Anyway, the episode was alright, Weird Al was fun, they kind made a little nod at Al's parodies by having him sing Smile Smile Smile, the Polka was basically there because Weird Al, damnit. The rest of the mane 6 were all stereotypically negligent (as you'd expect. There'd be no conflict otherwise.)

Wasn't the best episode but the cameo was kinda fun and Pinkie actually had a reason to be on screen for once. I'll call that a success.

On the topic of Pinkie Pride, all I have to say is that Cheese Sandwich was two dimensional and clearly just there because Weird Al. The rest of the episode was fine.

Simple Ways was... weird. I couldn't tell if Applejack was genuinely oblivious to Trenderhoof's affections, or if she was just being willfully ignorant out of respect for Rarity. I feel like the former fits better with Applejack's character, since you'd think once AJ was clued in to why Trenderhoof was hanging around her so much, she'd just put a stop to it then and there, but once everything's out in the open in the denouement, she seems completely unsurprised that Trendy has been pining for her the whole time, suggesting that she knew from the outset. But then, when Rarity alludes to Trendy's crush, AJ seems totally unaware. Ugh, it's so confusing.

Rarity is a creeper.

Given that the episode was kind of all over the place in terms of character motivations, I would expect myself find it really disappointing, but I had a lot of fun. I guess all it really takes for me to enjoy an episode is Rarity. Well, canon AJ clop is good, too.

this fucking show

Spoiler asdfg:

Seriously though, I loved this episode, insane as it was. Can't explain why, it was just hilarious.

[simonli2575]

The most hilarious episode ever so far in Season 4, I loved the way Applejack makes fun of Rarity trying to become Applejack by trying to become Rarity.

Also, did I hear Rarity say "Spikey Poo"?

[itroitnyah]

In the beginning, all of Rarity's friends are really just generic additives, there simply to advance the plot line by asking generic questions. It seems like that's been the case in quite a few episodes of season 4, and I gotta say it's a bit frustrating.

However, it seems that Tender is fairly well written, and once he arrives, things go better for the episode.

Oh god, rarity is just a cringe fest the entire episode, haha.

Overall it was a great episode.

[Navron]

I've always liked AJ since Season 1, so I just about had a freaking heart attack when this happened:

Spoiler Best Pony:

All ya'll who been dissin Applejack in Season 1/Season 2, you all back away now, nice and slow like.

[Gnarrkhaz]

Once again Tabitha St. Germain shows us how voice acting is done. What a treat.

Too bad we still didn't get a real couple it seems...oh, yeah...Equestria Girls...ugh

[itroitnyah]

Big Mac singing? What is this? It's great tho. Then shit goes down and Mac loses his voice and shit. But da fuck was up with that shit? A random ass turkey call competition. Man, it really looks like they just threw it in. They probably could have just shown him arguing with AJ over some ridiculous apple bucking technique or something.

Sheeeeeeiiit fluttershy, you was a famous ass model in season one and didn't really suffer from stage fright, but now you got this singing business going on and you a scared ass nigga.

Holy hell nothing went down the shitter in that singing performance.

It looks like the animators and perhaps the writers are also looking to appeal to the cloppers again. I guess they were in the last episode as well, but this episode it was much more obvious:

I've finally got to watching the newest episodes with my friend.
Here I am watching S04E13.



Day 82. Spike broke the 4th wall.

Cherilee x BigMac = Canon

More importantly though, this episode was somehow really great despite that glaring consistency problem. At the same time i like the fact that the reused the Flutterguy voice. I also feel they could have handled the ending better. Basically the ponies went on and on about how cool it must've been for Fluttershy to be on stage until she finally conceded. It lacked an aha-moment or a proper conversation between them. Somehow the episode also felt different in it's tone than what had come before. Something about how it was written. The characters seemed subtly different. The places also had a special kind of atmosphere about them. I don't know.[

Okay but this is 100% realistic I can relate to this. That moment where she's singing along and then she stops mid-syllable when she sees I-can't-be-arsed-to-look-up-their-names walking by is me any time someone walks into the room. I enjoy public speaking and could play at piano recitals for hours, but singing is just different somehow.

[simonli2575]

This is probably the only episode I've learned something out of.

[ExoBassTix]

I noticed how Lyra wasn't seen in a lot of recent episodes, until somewhere in the last ones where she was suddenly there a lot of times.

And fuck Cheese Sandwich, calling Bon-Bon that. And I don't like his design at all.

Episode link, for lazy people

Ok, so we all knew an episode about Sweetie Bell's magic abilities would be coming up, we just didn't know when. But, here it is. Or so it seems in the very beginning. It seems very much like another episode about the CMC working to try and get their cutie marks.

Haha, 2:07, did they really just make a weed reference? Or is "layin' it on a little thick there aren't we pal" a reference to something else?

Diamond Tiara might be a total bitch, but the whole acrobatic butler thing was hilarious.

Whoa, ponies besides royal guards actually acknowledged that Twi is a princess now

"WHOOOOOAAAA, are those books in there?" - My new favorite quote from the show

I sorta imagine, at 14:00ish *insert alternate scene* [Scootaloo] jump into pool [Lifeguard] jump in after her

Overall, amazing episode. Has to be my favorite episode out of season 4.

[Stuntddude]

Haha, 2:07, did they really just make a weed reference? Or is "layin' it on a little thick there aren't we pal" a reference to something else?

I'm pretty sure that was just a way of Sweetie Belle saying "yeah, okay, you've made your point already, dumb plant. It wasn't that bad."

My thoughts: WOW, that was a really good episode! I’m sure people will complain a bunch about Twilight’s changing role and personality in the show but I’m personally fine with it, and I’m really glad to see an episode that acknowledges the fact that she’s a princess, even if it’s only because the plot is explicitly built around it. Also the fact that an absurdly large number of people seem to universally hate CMC-centric episodes, whereas I can't get enough of them. Also, people hate Spike. I'll never understand it.

[itroitnyah]

lol, little tiny episode. Fun.

Ok, the conundrum caused by spike seems a bit far fetched, imo.

I love the language thing that the tiniponi's have.

Overall it was a pretty cute episode. A good one.

[CitricAcid]

I wish that the message of the episode had instead been "don't coddle others just because they seem small/weak." I was waiting for Seabreeze to prove that it was possible for the breezies to make it on their own, and Fluttershy would have been at fault for coddling them. I think that would have fit better, because the leaf thing was a little farfetched. How can these creatures be that helpless?

[itroitnyah]

Lol, did you see their wings? They're paper thin ornaments, so it's not really any surprise they needed the extra help.

[Bronies Are Cool]

I swear I think I know what is going to be used to open the box with 6 keys.
Obviously, there are 6 holes and 6 main characters. Each will contribute something.

Idk about what all of them will contribute yet, but this is my idea so far:

Somehow, rarity will use the rainbow thread she got as her key. If you noticed, the end of the episode showed the thread with slight emphasis. I think it's important.
And fluttershy will use the flower given to her by the breezies. That also had a slight emphasis on it.

Idk about the rest yet

I believe Boneless is Pinkie's key, and Rainbow Dash's pin is hers. We'll wait to see what Twilight and Applejack's keys will be, most likely Applejack first.

[CitricAcid]

I know, they will all become alicorns, and their horns will be the keys! And the fandom subsequently explodes.

[Luks]

I didn't like this episode. Breezies were annoying with their voices. 2/5.

[Bronies Are Cool]

I didn't like the breezies. They were just annoying and looked weird.
