The following essay was written for a literature class I took in college. At the time, one of the plays we had to read was from Author Millier's "The Crucible." It is dated, April 18^th, 2019.

The 100th episode was glorious. It was basically pure unadulterated fun, and that was more or less the entire point. It was a celebration of the fandom and the show and the fact that everyone loves these characters. I'm hearing a lot of reports of the old phantom of "panda rings" and people complaining it lacked plot and I just kind of wonder why they care. It was a montage of brilliant moments, funny characters, and a love letter written not just to fans but THIS fandom. What we do, who we

For five whole seasons, My Little Pony has consistently celebrated the small things. It's a subject I have written about rather extensively in other articles, but suffice it to simply say that it's a core part of the show.

I know what you're thinking, "Cracked, how could you ask that? Of course, the show is a masterpiece! Otherwise, why would any of us be here writing and coming up with new stories about it?” Point taken, but I want to take this moment to really examine it. Now, I know that this show has been talked about and analyzed to death, and done it again, but I want to at least talk about something that as far as I'm aware of hasn't been discussed. In that, from a critical eye, what about this particular

Throughout the days of Summer, I had spent sometime with an old friend. Yes, I had spent it watching all of Babylon 5. It was amazing sitting through all of those episodes, seeing all of the events of my childhood playing out, and revisiting all of the characters that I had loved. Babylon 5, with all of its themes and story telling, is one of the best sci-fi shows on the planet. Although having a small fanbase, I can guarantee you that if you ask a fan, they will tell you all about why they

Yup, an opinion piece. Kind of an odd one, too. But why not? After all, I finished the first draft of Jungle yesterday. I'm in a good mood. It's been a while since the last one. And this topic has been on my mind for a good week or so; seems as good a time as any to bring it up.

You know something quite important in journalism? The Five W's

What?
Okay, first of all, I want to make something very, very, very, very, very clear: This is not a fake chapter. Everything that happened in the chapter is canon.

Pony has had a good run. But it's time to end it.

Time for another editorial/review/commentary-thingy! (I really need to come up with a name for these things). As usual, the contents of this will spoil pretty much the entire story, so if you haven’t read it, go away and read it before you go any further.

Don’t make me bring out the pickle barrel.

I’ll do it. I WILL!

The newest episode, until tomorrow, is Princess Spike. While this episode was a decent one, as Spike-themed episodes go, I believe it was a terrible choice to immediately follow Slice of Life. Of course, the producers of My Little Pony could never hope to top Slice of Life in popularity among Bronies, choosing to decline even a bit of effort to match it was detrimental to the show, as the statistics showed (Nearly half the number of viewers Slice of Life had). Once again, it wasn't that
