I used to do these with my season overviews, but that always took a lot of time, so I figured it was better to explore the new characters and how they all stack up here. While there are plenty of characters that could qualify, I'm only including ones that had a noticeable presence and/or we know their names (some were not named on screen but recieved a name in the credits. This sadly disqualifies a majority of the cast of "Viva Las Pegasus" hard to talk about ponies when we

Ah kart racing, one of the most popular and iconic video game racing genres of all time. Heck, during the mid to late 90's almost every major video game mascot was trying desperately to cash in on "Mario Kart" fever. But we're not here to talk about video games, we're here to review an episode. Ed Valentine made his return today, and you may remember him from such episodes as "Flight to The Finish" (which was good for the most part, but had pre-reformed Diamond Tiara at her

Now that we've gotten more episodes, it's time to rank them with the rest of the episodes of the show. We've got a whopping 129 episodes to rank, so naturally trying to explain in detail why each one ends up where it does would take forever! If you want to know why an episode ends up where it does, feel free to ask. And remember, this list is by no means official, you're more than welcome to make your own if you disagree with me.

A Discord episode? Well, his track record has been kind of hit and miss over the past two seasons. Perhaps that's why he's being paired up with Spike and Big Macintosh for this episode. Nick Confalone has returned to write this episode, he previously broke new ground with "No Second Prances" and "The Saddle Row Review", both of which saw him tackle a character in a lead role he hadn't handled before, this time he's taking a crack at writing Discord. Was Nick able to do a good

So, here I am deliberating how to approach a few new projects, and an idea for a new story came to me.

It concerns extraterrestrials coming to Equestria, in a spooky story. Now, I'm debating whether the story should take place in normal Equestria, or in the Equestria Girls world. It'll feature things like abductions, lost time, sub-dermal implants, and close encounters. like how the aliens were in The X-Files.

What do you guys think? ponies or people?

Now that Season 7's airdate has more than likely been announced (unless they're planning to go straight through the summer, I really can't imagine they'd wait longer than mid April to air it. They'll want to have Season 7 done before the movie so that there's nothing to divert attention from it), it's time to update the episode list a little since some of my opinions have changed a bit. But of course, with 143 episodes to get through, trying to explain why each one ends up where

If you can believe it, this is actually the first episode of the entire show to not only have none of the mane six, but also not have any of their voice actresses in any way, shape, or form (the closest we came to this before was "Hearts and Hooves Day", "On Your Marks", and "The Fault in Our Cutie Marks"). And fittingly enough, it's a Cutie Mark Crusaders episode with Big Macintosh in the spotlight. After the impressive development he got in Season 5, I was disappointed to see

Before starting I've to say that, although the first episode I watched was from season 2, technically I started here, 4 months after the finale, so I'm not that familiar with details like the "Save Derpy" project or even the hate towards Twilicorn, which were influenced in this season.

I'd like to talk about this topic later rather than sooner or even never but after thinking about it I can't remain speechless. This is going to be polemical so I'd like if you first read and then speak.

A Christmas themed episode, in May? I've heard of Christmas in July, but never in May. It's not even fitting for a "Nightmare Before Christmas" kind of joke. Oh well.

So, we've got our Applejack episode of the season. Well, maybe now that Rarity and Rainbow Dash are wrapping up their character arcs and achieving their dreams, we'll finally get to see Applejack move away from just being a support character? Yeah, well that's not happening. Michael P. and Will Fox returned to write this episode, but guess who decided to "help" them, Neal Dusedau.

Now it's on to our first CMC episode of the new season, and much like how "Bloom and Gloom" set up the next phase for the CMC last season, this season sets up the phase for the CMC now that they've gotten their cutie marks. Keep in mind that they expressed their boredom in "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows", so this isn't out of nowhere. The writer for this episode is one of the only veteran writers from Season 1 left on the show right now, Dave Polsky. Last season, he wrote

Yeah, it turns out that this is another episode with a title different from the one we were told about it. I'm not sure what's up with the name change, but regardless we're going back to Manehattan for our first Rarity solo episode of the season (remember, she shared "Gift of The Maud Pie" with Pinkie and Maud). Nick Confalone is back in the writer's seat, once again taking on new challenges with his first time writing Rarity. "No Second Prances" was a fairly solid episode from

There have been a ton of writers for this show, some of which have been around since the beginning, and others which have only joined recently. There are some that have been present for every season, and others which have been absent for seasons at a time.

I apologize for this review taking longer than it normally does to come out, but I had to go in to work at an earlier time than I've previously been scheduled for Saturdays where I do work. Hopefully, this won't be a problem in the future. Anyway, it's been a few months, but ponies are back with another season. This season premiere had a lot to work with, considering the bad taste Starlight Glimmer's reformation left in everyone's mouth at the end of Season 5. Could the

Well, now I've reviewed the movie, it's only natural that the reformations ranking be updated. But there's been a couple other reformations to consider. Including one I'm very reluctantly including here despite my absolute detesting of it. Here's the previous version, from the end of Season 7, the only rule is I'm not including the reformation of any comics exclusive villains. And as

I didn't opt to update the rankings until now because Season 7 and the movie did not affect my overall rankings of the five princesses that existed up to that point. But since then, there's one new princess from the movie, one from the comics, and technically another that hasn't been talked about much. So the list warranted an update. Here's the third version, from the end of Season 6. Time to see what changed, and

Okay, so I need your opinions on a few things related to... well, exactly what it says on the tin really. Okay, firstly, the Riders. I plan on bringing in two more. Yes, two. Won't tell you who gets to wear the fancy suits, but I will tell you which Riders are planned to appear, namely Double and Zangetsu. Now, if you don't care about any of that, you can skip on ahead to the second thing that I'm bringing up.
