Make Your Mark - Chapter 5: Father of the Bridlewood (my commentary) · 9:01pm Nov 17th, 2023
This is going to be another Misty episode, isn't it? Why does the whole show revolve around Misty? She didn't even make it into the movie.
Misty doesn't give a shit about her father. She won't even let him call her Misty Wisty.
Queen wanted some alone time with Alphabettle but Misty, among other things, is also a cockblock.
Family reunion, with spectators. It's like public sex, just worse.
Queen was smart to leave.
Taking over the world not a real game? It's the best game there is: reality.
Alpha dad? I bet he loves it when they call him daddy.
Misty helped destroy the world and doesn't even care enough to try to fix it.
Zipp is the only one who even cares.
Pipp forgot all about her technology-free day.
"We're just a phone call away even though the last time I checked there was no service here."
I liked Misty's dungeon room better than her filly room.
Wow, I was joking before, but it turns out Misty really doesn't give a shit about her dad.
A depressed pony is best pony.
Why do background ponies seem to have more characters than any of the main ones?
Misty swallows her liquid disgust.
Fire swallowing? I'm sure Misty became a master in that. After all, she's been with a Fire Alicorn her whole life. I bet she made her swallow.
Dizzy is a more fitting name than Izzy.
Turns out the old pony visited Zepher Hights in the past. Why wasn't she arrested there?
Misty has brain damage. Doesn't remember a thing.
Elder Flower turns out to be a distracted energetic filly.
Misty ruins everything, again.
And we have another 180 for no reason.
"I am your father" Â "Noooo!"
"I want to know about your life."Â - Oh, you don't. Your daughter is the destroyer of the world. The less you hear about her evil past, the better.
"I'm Misty, Tea for short." - Never heard that before. Not even Opaline calls her Tea.
Oh, she just made it up. Typical Misty.
"All the ponies kept changing shapes." - She was in a Changeling wedding? Wow, I thought they just sucked their victims. I didn't know they married them first.
"Great, great, great Moondancer." - Now we have a timeline. It's only been like two centuries. Never thought of Moondancer as a reproducing one. It's always the quiet ones, isn't it?
Misty thinks she can make tea for a master tea maker. She makes a bitter tea because of course she does.
Now Mistly lives in the lighthouse? What happened to the double agent plan?
At least she got away from her father whom she hates so much.
Wait, if the magical bus was taken by Elder Flower, how did the rest manage to get Misty's stuff? And how did they do it in 5 minutes?
Lesson of the day: Make your family a bitter tea and dump them.
Heh. I've learned my lesson from last time. I am drink-free reading this! I noticed a lot of the same discrepancies you did, but I'm still managing to enjoy the show. If they were going to bother trying to cash in on G4, they could've at least made the time gap between the shows make more sense. Two centuries is hardly enough time for the kingdom of Equestria to get freaking wiped out and radically forgotten.
...Except not really forgotten because apparently, Elder Flower is timeless enough to remember stuff that was (supposedly) ages ago.
Ah G5, you fun glittery mess...
5755368 G4 episodes felt polished and somewhat consistent. G5 on the other claw is a pile of random shit. The authors just say whatever suits them, even if it contradicts all G4 and everything they've been saying thus far. They simply don't care.
But if you're intoxicated enough, G5 can still be enjoyed.

Its bad fanfiction. Like literally. They literally got people from the fandom to write in it.
5755373 No, man. You're too harsh. If one of us wrote this and published it on this site, she'd get downvoted to Hell and back. This site and this fandom have standards.
I think they should have done that, though. They should have let the fandom write G5. At least we watched G4, unlike the writers of G5.
