These past two weeks were really worrying me when I learned about the snyposis for this episode, and when it was confirmed that Trixie was going to be the pony Twilight was weary of Starlight befriending, my fears only grew. I was seriously hoping that we wouldn't get a rehash of "What About Discord?", and thankfully that was not the case, for the most part. Nick Confalone, who wrote "Party Pooped" with Jim and Jayson, and "Hearthbreakers" on his own returned to write this

I said that the new cover art for The Return of The Terror (tagged) has spoilers, but what exactly are they? I'll help point some out for you, if you'd click that "read more" button.

Note: this doesn't tell what the spoilers are. It just tells you what parts of the picture are the spoilers.

I can't stress this enough when I say NO SPOILERS for Pokemon Sun and Moon. I have tried my hardest to avoid spoilers, but please... Pokemon means everything to me, and just this once I don't want the internet spoiling anything. If ANYONE reveals to me any information about Pokemon Sun and Moon, I will block them depending on who you are.

Well, this is an episode the fandom was undeniably both looking forward to and dreading ever since the tweet from the writers about Fluttershy having a little brother. Considering what happened the last time a character had a brother introduced (in the form of Shining Armor back at the very end of Season 2), this episode had to not only tell a good story, but also sell us on the fact that Fluttershy had a brother she never talked about or mentioned before. And boy did they

Oh my god, the cutie mark.

IT'S THE HOMESTUCK BREATH ASPECT SYMBOL.

NEVER SAW THAT COMING!

Well, that hiatus lasted shorter than expected. It's been about two months, but ponies are back, and back with style I might add.

So Season 6 is actually going to be premiering in spring. On one hand I'm happy we don't have to wait another year, but on the other I'm a little nervous that this might be rushed. I know that's a sort of irrational fear because given the stuff that's come out on it already, it's looking like they may have already started on Season 6 while Season 5 was still going. Do we know exactly when production started? No. So we don't know any of that, but what we do know is that this for sure is in

In honor of my new story, Shub-Cadurath, I’ve decided to read five stories based around the same big season six spoiler that spawned (ha ha!) that piece! So have three that came across my dash in the usual manner, and two more pulled from this spoiler-titled group, since apparently not everyone is jumping on this bandwagon. :B The sillies.

Well, "Friendship Games" has come and gone, but ponies are still hanging around for a couple of weeks. And at long last, we've got a Big Macinotsh/Apple Bloom episode, something that I'm sure a lot of people were eager to see.

(Spoilers for the latest episode herein. You have been warned.)

I have no words for the latest episode. But I'm gonna try and find some anyway. That's assuming I can find anything through all this water my face is leaking. Yeah, my face is leaking liquid pride right now. I'm proud of you, Big Mac. Real proud.

Hey everybody. I just wanted to let you know that I had a massive surge of creativity this morning and I just finished writing out the detailed plan for every chapter from 42 - 50 (inclusive).

That means that I literally cannot have writers block for the next 9 chapters!

Well, we might as well enjoy this episode, because we've got a mid season hiatus that's likely to last until October. Yeah, Discovery Family's scheduling has been really weird.

USE SPOILERS PROPERLY, PEOPLE.

It is not that hard. Just don't stick the episode title in the title of the thread, use that nice little tag up there, and be vague so it doesn't pop up in people's feeds.

This episode was going to air early in the U.K., like with the finale and "Top Bolt", but it got pulled due to cider references. And in the U.K. at least cider is predomintely alcoholic (in case you're wondering I'm told "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" has never aired on television there as a result). But I wasn't too thrilled with it when I learned it was going to be yet another Apple Bloom focus episode. I don't hate her, but she's gotten way too much focus over the

Chances are most of you already saw the episode when it aired in the U.K. earlier this week, but there are probably a few of you who chose to wait and see it blind here in the U.S. So we're rounding out another trio of map missions with another TwiDash episode at Wonderbolt Academy of all places (TwiDash is a pairing the show hasn't explored much before, even in "Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3"), and another O.C. courtesy of The Make A Wish Foundation (the last time was Stellar

Suddenly Changeling, out of nowhere.

It may be a bit unnecessary to tag this with "spoilers!" considering most people have probably already seen the Canadian airing of this episode, but there are still some who are waiting to watch it when it airs in the U.S. so I think it's still merited. Anyway, we have our first CMC episode of the season (albeit one focused more heavily on Sweetie Belle rather than the group as a whole), and our writers for this episode are the Fox Brothers Michael P. and Wil. Last season their

Well, it turns out I was premature about the hiatus, it won't be until after "Not Asking for Trouble", but this was an episode I wasn't going to wait for anyway. The synopsis made it sound like a bland RariJack filler episode that we really don't need (RariJack has been explored to death, there's nothing new you can do with it anymore). Before we go any further though, if any of you are still waiting on the U.S. airing of this episode.

With the recent announcement of RWBY being in a crossover with BlazBlue, Persona 4 Arena, and... I keep wanting to say Undertale, but I know that's not right...

Anyway. I've given in to curiosity and decided to watch it from the beginning, doing a binge-watch of the seasons, one per day. TV Tropes is temporarily blocked, so no spoilers, please. I'm going in blind, here.
