Buckball Season really is one of those "that was an episode" episodes, but I still can't find a reason to be mad at it. It's light, it's fun, Applejack's spinning fault in the first scene is her best moment ever. The worst thing about it is probably the muddled moral, but there are a lot of things they could have gone with: don't take sports too seriously, another "how to be a good fan" thing, something about not living vicariously through others, etc. Well, and I'm still disappointed

Despite appearances, season 6 has radically changed the way that these cutie map episodes play out. For one, season 6 has introduced the unprecedented notion that these episodes could be fun, and even - gasp! - light-hearted and energetic. It's a positive development, but not one without negative side effects. As these adventure-driven episodes become more and more entertaining, they become less and less adventurous, to the extent that this latest entry, "Viva Las Pegasus," comes packed with

Man, I love Viva Las Pegasus. :D You've got heroes helping villains without reforming them, Gladmane's a total hoot, there's tons of amazing background ponies, and the new setting is a ride from start to finish. It's just everything I want out of post-S3 episodes. Observations:

Yaks Episode II: Prince Rutherford Is Still Full Of Crap.

That's about it. The yaks are less annoying but Rutherford is still a dick. Also, episode was boring. And for a Pinkie Pie episode, that's unforgiveable. The yaks simply aren't funny.

Given how disappointed I was by Dance Magic, I tried really, really hard to keep my expectations for Movie Magic low, even as EQD teased an increasingly exciting slew of preview images.

I had nothing to worry about, this was great. :3

Remember how Season 4’s finale has Tirek accusing Discord of being tamed by the ponies?

Welcome to a new blog series! Necessitated by me no longer having Discovery Family as a channel, I will be making an effort to rewatch episodes in the middle of the week, likely around the Tuesday/Wednesday period. And since I'm just watching on my own, I'll be more or less liveblogging reactions. Because if the first two episodes were anything to go by, there was a lot of stuff in there I didn't even come close to touching with my initial blog post.

Maud only two episodes in? Thank you!

I think it's official: I'm too old to be watching Equestria Girls.

In my defense, I think the show runners are, too. :B

I have no idea what these are (I think FOME or someone said they aired between the movies on Discovery Family or something?), but they happened, so let's take a look.

Yeah, it's another one of those EQG summer shorts. They kind of aren't worth blogging about singly, but I figure I can just throw the reviews out anywhere. In this case, alongside the thing I'm currently binge-listening to today:

Oh my god, you guys.

Holy shit!

Holy shit, you guys.

OH MY GOD

That was awesome! :D That was way more than I expected and everything I could have wanted! I think this is a reward for slogging through all those terrible (and not-so-terrible) summer shorts!

Just watched the season 8 premiere. I hadn't watched the trailer or read the episode summary so I came in blind. Initially, I was kind of surprised they did such a direct tie-in for the movie, but given the impact it had it makes sense. I liked that they brought in all the different creatures... But I was kind of puzzled they didn't bring in other creatures. I mean, in earlier seasons we've had buffalo, zebras, and donkeys! It just seems like if they wanted to be getting across the
