Pinkie: Oh, don't worry! It happens all the time! *closes her eyes and concentrates real hard, her teeth shards falling out and regrowing perfectly* See! Ta-da! Neat, huh?

Griffons. We've known they were a thing since Season 1. We saw hints of them last year. Now we finally have the worldbuilding we've been speculating about, and…
Well, it certainly wasn't what I was expecting.
Warning: Spoilers from the latest episode, The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone, abound. Proceed with caution.
Frenemies Talk, Chapter VII: The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone
With a slight delay this week, but we are here. Perhaps we are not enough to mend the pain over the lack of episode this Saturday, but we shall try our best as we discuss treasures, Gilda, Harmony and some other insignificant stuff when compared to the Idol of Boreas. Who's with me?
Oh...? Alright, hide the torches.

You will not believe what happened to me.
Spike: "This thing again, huh? Going right in with the episodes locked to a formula, I see."
Applejack: "Wow Spike, that's mighty insightful of ya. How'd you deduce that so quick?"
The Cutie Map - 5/5
A strong opener with a unique antagonist and a somewhat more complex story than the prior premieres and finales, and does a good job introducing the new mechanic of the Cutie Map.
Castle Sweet Castle - 5/5
An impressive episode with genuine emotion, that goes a long way toward helping me not hate the new castle.
Bloom And Doom - 4/5
