Special Re-Review: Equestria Girls: Forgotten Friendship

While we now know that this has to take place not just before Season 8 but before the events of the 2017 FiM movie, it first premiered in February of 2018, about a month before Season 8 of FiM hit the airwaves. Interestingly, the Discovery Family broadcast omitted several scenes that were later released as part of an "extended" version. As for the writer, it was none other than Nick Confalone,

Episode Re-Review: Uncommon Bond

After the absolute disaster that was "Secrets and Pies", Season 7 really needed something to redeem it and give it the chance to go out on a high note, especially now that the big 2017 movie had come and gone, and the show's future was still uncertain.

Episode Re-Review: Secrets and Pies

*Sigh*, might as well get this over with. When this episode first came out, I didn't think it would be possible for any episode to dethrone "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" for the worst episode of FiM in my book, but somehow this episode found a way to do that.

Merry (Happy) Christmas One and All! · 3:06pm Dec 25th, 2022

Today is Christmas Day, the day we celebrate with friends, family and anyone we hold dear. Of course, for many, the holiday also holds significance for the fact that it is the day we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, who in death conqured sin and created life everlasting.

I won't be on much today since I'll be spending the day visiting relatives. And having exhausted all the comics from IDW worth reading (I'm not interested in anything they've put forth since "Generations" flopped, the G5 comics show potential but are taking way too long to get back to the main arc in favor of cliche filler stories), there will be no comic reviews coming over the next few days, the first time since starting this account where that will be the case.

So instead, I leave you with this little piece of fanon that is officially a decade old now. Enjoy.
