    Fics I reviewed in April 2024 (and one from late March)

    By popular request¹ I'm bringing back this feature. My weekly Ponyfic Roundup reviews are, and will remain, on my off-site blog. It just suits me to do it that way, even if I'd probably have got significantly more of a readership had I written the blogs on Fimfiction as most (all?) other current reviewers do. However, a

    State of the Unicorn: Poor

    That's poor in both senses, I'm afraid! Though before I say any more, I need to stress that I have a warm, safe home, enough to eat, internet access... the essentials, really. I am not in danger of losing those. However, I won't be doing much beyond those essentials for a while. Without going into boring details, I will very shortly be going in for dental work to be done. Which, as

    So then, Doctor Who

    Loved it!

Plus one of my worries about the new Disney-cash-infused Who has been dispelled: this definitely did

    Bloody Covid

    Fortunately not in the literal sense! But yeah, I'm currently stuck at home, yet not feeling well enough to concentrate on ponyfic. It's a seriously annoying combination. :pinkiesick:

S6E22: "P.P.O.V. (Pony Point of View)" · 5:09pm Oct 1st, 2016

Hmm. I appreciate the innovation, but it's not as successful in that regard as "The Saddle Row Review" was. There are some great bits, and Applejack has a fantastic episode, but they don't quite add up to a great whole. Part of this is because the resolution is colossally stupid. Unfortunately, I'll know it's coming now, and it'll irritate me every time. As a mystery, "Rarity Investigates!" blows this -- ahem -- out of the water. ★★/★★★

Author Interviewer

It's funny, because I'm of the complete opposite opinion. This was what I wanted out of SRR.

4237239 I've nudged it up in my estimation slightly since I wrote that (it's now definitely a three-star fic), but I still don't like the bunyip reveal. Oh well, I'm just strange. We all knew that anyway. :D
