Ah, it's that time of year again. It's Halloween night, Linus is waiting in the local pumpkin patch to catch the Great Pumpkin, which supposedly flies through the air delivering presents to children the world over that time of year. Only it turns out to be Snoopy doing it by pure accident...

This episode features a return to the dragon lands; though its popped up occasionally in episodes like Shadow Play, this is the first time its truly been a vital backdrop since Gauntlet of Fire, 3 seasons prior. Neither that episode nor Dragon Quest are well-regarded by fans, but I actually quite like them both (in particular, I've never really understood the hate Dragon Quest sometimes receives; it's no Spike at Your Service, let alone a Princess Spike). So this episode has that to make me

"Common Ground" may have been written to mirror the situation of its guest stars as well as with them in mind. "Sparkle's Seven" may have been a fitting tribute to the 5 actresses that did a lot to make the show's main characters as endearing and entertaining as they have been over the years. But they are, in the end, behind-the-scenes stuff that might not be instantly, aggressively obvious within the episodes alone (okay, Sparkle's Seven clearly feels unique when watching it; point still

As it happens, this was the first episode this season I did not see live during the stream, as I was just floating down at the cinema to see Detective Pikachu. I'd like to think not watching it live didn't affect my experience of the episode, but I felt it was something you should all be aware of.

Over the years, MLP has had its fair share of notable quest stars outside of its main cast of actresses and other VA based in or near Vancouver, all of whom clearly loved their time on the show. Whether it be semi-famous people who appeared for one character and got to let it loose (Lena Hall's Colratura, Autumn Blaze's Rachel Bloom) or even John de Lancie's Discord, who gels with the show so well he comes back two or three times a season ever since his character was reformed and made

Ominous title, eh? Though unlike the Premiere, this is far from a serious, stakes-high episode. Only from Twilight's perspective could this be considered something of that magnitude. Anyway, as always, let's dive in!

200 episodes. Who'd have thought My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic would make it this far? This makes it the longest-running animated show of the 2010s in both on-air time and number of episodes (okay, some Cartoon Network shows have more episodes, but only by counting episodes in 11-minute chunks, so this still wins by a sizeable count).

It's the return of the Student 6 - I'm sorry, the YOUNG 6, as they are named in the mobile Pocket Ponies game (which is actually really solid). Eh, think I'll stick with Student 6, at least for this post. That's what the fandom mostly uses anyway, so it fits for this post.

I'll preface this by saying I, by and large, have never really warmed to the Student 6. Just bear that in mind.
