So, much as I am sympathetic to the plight of the trans fans who weren't, shall we say, keen on Brotherhooves Social, I really can't help liking the episode. Big Mac is just so into being Orchard Blossom. (I'm surprised more people haven't gotten hung up on the anti-stallion sentiment suffusing the episode. Finally, confirmation of headcanon!) Also, that song totally reminds me of the one MandoPony did for the original

I suppose I should explain what I mean by "potential new members" considering I already did a Top Ten for colts and fillies, and ranked the CMC including Gabby and Babs. This list is exploring ponies that haven't officially joined the CMC yet in canon, but have a strong potential to do so or could benefit from being included. I did a similar list to this a year ago involving ponies who could replace Babs Seed for the fourth member, but Babs really doesn't deserve to be

Like my new temporary avatar? :V I'm really not into Halloween, but after seeing the newest Horse Wife, I just had to.

Posting my old FoE story, Crusades. Awaiting aoproval.

Well. That was quite an episode, wasn’t it?

Crusaders of the Lost Mark will go down as one of the most important episodes in MLP history, up there with Magical Mystery Cure, Slice of Life, and that episode from 1986 where the two babies get bored and imagine where a red ball could be (And no of course I didn’t just google “List of Original My Little Pony episodes” and pick the one with the most absurd synopsis.)

It's been a long time since I did this list, but while my opinions of the princesses might not have changed (I still can't wrap my head around the premise of "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows" and Princess Cadence's actions just don't make sense to me, at least when Princess Celestia was withholding information from Twilight, it was because she knew Twilight needed to reach the conclusion on her own to save the day. The existence of the Tanterbus may make Princess Luna's lessons

Haven't updated this one in quite a while because my opinions on the CMC hadn't changed since the end of Season 6, until now that is. There's actually something positive I can say about Season 8, and that's that it was able to change my opinions on some of the CMC for the better. As a quick note, I'm only including official CMC members from the show, so obviously Diamond Tiara and Pipsqueak don't count despite sharing episodes with the CMC. And Lilly Ambermoon and her sister don't count either,

One final update for the CMC, even though it's not an overall ranking and more how they fare after what Season 9 gave us to work with. Like with my mane eight ranking, there's a journal on my DeviantArt account if you want to see the overall rankings, specifically this journal. Like always this list is purely the result of my personal opinion so please respect it.

So this week's episode was definitely a very surprising episode this week, and it dropped a couple of major bombshells.

I'm pretty sure this one is in the "drawings I used most time on"-category!
But this one was completely free-hand, it started out as a sketch of an eye!
What do you guys think? I know the light on Scootaloo and AB sucks, I might change that later. And also Scootaloo's eyes

Hello there. Another week another episode. This time we see the Crusaders building carts to ride in a derby. However, it doesn't go to plan when they ask their family (honorary and real) for help. This episode resonated quite a bit with me. When I was attending community college, I took an English class wherein we had to write a final paper about whatever we wanted as long as it was connected to one of the other papers we had written that quarter. I chose domestic service in the United States.

... Now to return to my thousand year coma. Sorry for the 3 am blog post

Loving you all, despite my absence;

Just a few things before I dive in:

This episode is probably controversial and thus my opinion of this episode will be too. But as I've said (and I still haven't found a reason to change my opinion) the writers really pulled out the stops and put together some of the best episodes for this entire show in season five part two. So, it might be obvious where I lean on this episode.

This will probably be the last episode review I do since no one really seems to read these or care.

Then I'd made a Patreon.

BTW, I've updated My Little Fortress for the latest game version. Work on the CKII mod will resume shortly.

While the CMC shined pretty well this season, I think it's safe to say that their group dynamic has gotten a tad bit stale. Individually we have a good sense of their personalities, but they seldom seem to be at odds over the problem facing them. I already made this list once before, after Season 6 ended, but there are a few changes that I felt warranted a revisiting of this list (the reason why I didn't touch the CMC or the princesses in ranking here, is because none of my opinions on them

I finally got to see what has got to be the most spoiled MLP episode ever.

Warning, this is chuck full of spoiler material!

Much ado about nothing.

Almost certainly not appearing in chapter V:

TWILIGHT SPARKLE (writes): "When we got to the library and Moongleam (as she has insisted we call her) saw the collection, she bounced around the room in a circle for a full minute, calling out 'Yes, yes, yes, yes!'. She seems very excitable to me. Is this normal for her species? Is it likely to happen oft-"

(a short moment of embarrassed recollection later)

First of all, before I spoil anything, let me get this out of the way:

There! Now...

OHMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH!!!

The episode opens with a song. Cool! I mean, that doesn't happen a lot! In fact, the last time that happened was...

Twilicorn.

Huh. Should have been our first clue that something big was about to go down.
