My Thoughts On Spice Up Your Life SPOILERS · 6:39pm Jun 11th, 2016
Like the food from the posh restaurants in the episode, a bland, insubstantial serving with barely enough filling to go around. It's painfully obvious from the first minute who's is in the right, so getting to the 'being different is good' moral at the end is quite a chore. The lack of any real laughs is also a crippling flaw, and the Pinkie/Rarity dynamic, once so fresh is starting to get a little stale.
On the plus side, I do like the two new Indian-inspired ponies, so they can turn up again. Also, the Bollywood-esque song is fun, and if nothing else is a HUGE improvement over last week's audio atrocity. Finally, the food critic reminded me of the gourmet from Ratatouille, which is a film I love and now will be watching again tonight... So, that's another element I can put in this episode's favour, I guess...
So, that's enough MLP for now. What wonders await us in the second half of the season... We shall see...
