This is rather ugly but other than hosting a catalog tbh I'm not sure how I'd want to post it.

This episode was an interesting one. The description had me expecting a fairly boring episode that I'd watch, give a 3/5 to, and forget about fairly quickly. So really, it was a pleasant surprise that I enjoyed this one as much as I did. It was fun.
Not much to talk about since there's not much to critique, but here are some thoughts:
I liked this episode. Despite the twenty-minute runtime, it felt a lot shorter than it was, and was enjoyable throughout. Some spoilery stray thoughts after the break, if this works right.
So having finally watched the episode... it was pretty good. Not great, but pretty good, and really underlined how far Starlight and Twilight have yet to go.
This episode, though. This episode, though!
I liked this episode. It started slow, and Twilight's clunky dialogue when everypony was getting off the train put me off a bit, but everything else... fantastic!
5 Princess Dresses out of 5.
Now that I've probably thoroughly alienated everyone by airing legitimate grievances with the show but failing to emphasize that I really do still like it, and that I think Season 5 has really helped fix some of the issues with it, it's time to talk about Season 6 thus far
And then I watched Buckball Season, The Fault In Our Cutie Marks, Viva Los Pegasus, and Every Little Thing She Does.
Pony Point Of View
Rarity Investigates: A fun, noiresque episode starring Best Pony. The Wonderbolts continue to be presented in a less than ideal light, but most of that is due to Pony Gilderoy Lockhart. 4/5 bottles of cologne.
Made In Manehattan: Coco Pommel! A tragic end to AJ's hat! An interesting moral! Theater Troupe Hipster Ponies! RARIJACK UNDERTONES OUT THE WAZOO! 5/5 tacky hat stands.
So today I'm going to be running through three episodes that I have yet to comment on, despite having now seen about a month or two ago.
