Well, I must say that this has been the least exciting, least suspenseful season premiere in the show’s entire history , (pause) and I LOVED IT!

Okay, I’m writing this because thanks to some spoilers from the internet, I’ve been hearing rumors of all kinds of Starlight hate popping up because of “A Royal Problem,” the synopsis for “To Change a Changeling,” and “Mirror Magic.”  I haven’t actually seen “Mirror Magic” myself, but I’m not going to lie.  All the negative opinions about it are making looking forward to it hard to do, but I’m going to go ahead and reserve judgment until I’ve actually seen it.

All the way up to Daring Done. So let's see...

Not Asking For Trouble... Best Pinkie episode since The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows.

I found Discordant Harmony adorable, if a tad on the predictable side.

And wow, The Perfect Pear... I teared up a little!

Fame and Misfortune was incredible. It was as if the fandom invaded Ponyville itself.

Triple Threat was pretty good; though we viewed it as more of an "Ember and Thorax" episode rather than a Spike episode.

1. Starswirl the Bearded is a hardhearted jerk who doesn’t know how to admit when he is wrong or doesn’t know something, and how Twilight continues to look up to him throughout the episode puzzles me so much.  I mean, okay, Starswirl’s brilliant, powerful, and not TOTALLY heartless, so I can understand why Twilight admires him, but I’m surprised that the pedestal she’s got him on barely even cracked.

I was almost on the floor.

They went... So many places. So many glorious places.

Thoroughly enjoyed them. And not a two-parter, but two separate, fantastic Starlight-focused stories. Yay!

Still figuring out the Letter of the finale. I have days off Wednesday-Friday. Hopefully then.

In which Rumble goes into a frenzy.

Well shit!

After confirming himself to be a fan of the show and being so cryptic about whether or not he would do a voice on MLP, William Shatner has officially confirmed he's guest starring in Season 7!

Now all we need is Patrick Stewart as a character interacting with Discord and I can die happy.

OK so I need to talk about this because it's actually becoming a problem now.

Mixed feelings. Fairly funny on the whole, and the song battle was enjoyable. On the other hand, I got a bit bored by the actual romance stuff. So not as good as episode 7, but still a reasonably solid time-passer. ★★/★★★
