Most Boring Episode of the Show?

[The Second Opinion 269]

A lot of episodes get flak for breaking continuity or being really stupid/unfunny, but which is most guilty in your eyes of being plain old boring?

 

For me, it was actually Green Isn't Your Color (not a popular choice), because I thought Rarity's arc was pushed to the sidelines and left stagnant, in favor of overloading on repetitive "cute" Fluttershy antics (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIORsxPIk84)

But I've also heard arguements for Ain't Easy Being Breezies and there were I couple more that had trouble holding my attention. Thoughts?

Mine are probably:

 

Simple Ways:

This just seems to draaaag on and keep on being pointless with how out of character everypony is... it annoys me.

 

Look Before You Sleep:

I hate this episode for the same reason as Simple Ways. Ponies are out of character and it just gets really boring with Rarity and AJ just shouting "Did Not" "Did Too!"

 

Eugh...

Leap of Faith, Super Speedy Cider Squeezy and Family Appreciation Day

[Dulset Tarn 441]

One Bad Apple was the first episode that for me was just boring start to finish.

But honestly, it would take too long to list all the episodes in season 4 that were just completely unentertaining.

[Frostgage 7,972]

The Cutie Pox, Just for Sidekicks and Twilight Time come to mind. Which isn't to say I dislike them, though.

I like some episodes more than others. I never found one to be "boring" though.

[Jeric 46,834]

Owls Well That Ends Well. I zone out whenever I try and watch it.

[Castle Bleck 19,166]

Castle Mane-ia.

 

Pointless Scooby-Doo hijinks, and the "Pony Of Shadows" at the end was most likely just Zecora.

I can't really say there's a boring one for me but I don't really like Green Isn't your Color.

[Pastel 7,627]

I liked Leap of Faith, but I found it quite boring.

Breezies and Maud Pie.

 

Breezies's exposition really clogged up the narrative, and it was just too confusing to watch.

 

Maud Pie was just as heavy in exposition, and the anti-humor's WAY too dry; I honestly thought the conversations were serious rather than funny. (To this day, I still don't get a chuckle out of it, even after reading about anti-humor's purpose, and this "humor" is way too out of place for the show.)

You'd probably get a chuckle out of real anti-humor, that episode was just a half-assed attempt.

[Drakkon 362]

Yeah, I'm in a similar vein as @cutecindyhoney. I don't find any episodes really boring, I enjoy the work they put in all the episodes, however some episodes I found to be less entertaining, in the sense that I'm usually thinking about the next episode rather than focusing on my enjoyment on the current one. Say, the Show Stoppers, or Family Appreciation day, or really most of - I'm sad to admit this - the Applejack or the Apple-family oriented episodes. I actually love quite a few, such Apple Family Reunion and Super Speedy Cider Squeezy. But others such as The Last Roundup and Leap of Faith are less enjoyable for me.

It Ain't Easy Being Breezies.

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,151]

Eh, I'd probably have to say Dragon Quest and Just for Sidekicks. Both episodes are somewhat of a chore to sit through...

[SilverStarApple 849]

BREEZIES

GREEN IS NOT YOUR COLOUR, and it NEVER WILL BE

DRAGONS SUCK: THE EPISODE.

 

In that order.

Eh, I'd probably have to say Dragon Quest and Just for Sidekicks. Both episodes are somewhat of a chore to sit through...

I have to agree, neither of these episodes really held my attention. 'Owl's Well That Ends Well' is another one that didn't exactly captivate me. I like Spike, but I have found episodes focused on him to be rather lacklustre for the most part.

[LongGoneGr 1,304]

Owl's Well that Ends Well and Dragon Quest are probably the least entertaining ones for me to watch. That said, I don't find them necessarily boring.

[PSP (Dizzy) 201]

The most "boring" episode of the show is Look Before You Sleep, but it's also one of my absolute favorites.

Spike at Your Service and Rainbow Falls

[Lyra's Pants 154]

It Ain't Easy Being Breezies was the most boring episode to ever grace MLP, in my opinion. Yes, I know it's flippin' Fluttershy, but this episode didn't really appeal to me. The breezies didn't come off to me as cute or pretty whatsoever. They just looked strange. I didn't sense a whole lot of action in this episode, despite some comedy from Flutterbee and the cold opening. Overall, just "bleh."

[The Second Opinion 269]

Castle Mane-ia.

 

Pointless Scooby-Doo hijinks, and the "Pony Of Shadows" at the end was most likely just Zecora.

Yeah, that's another one I thought needed to step it up. "Pointless" is the key word, because it reveals early on that nothing is actually wrong and it's just the ponies scaring each other with gimmicky funs house stuff in wooden fashion.

[MechanicalDoom 300]

I honestly can't think of an episode that bored me.

[GenderIsAnIllusion 2,177]

Most oring?...... I'd have to go with the Ticket Master..... It's. Ot that I didn't enjoy the episode as a whole, it's just that it covers a friendship topic literally found in almost every single kids show with similar age demographics, witj no attempt at varrying the lesson, or extending it.....

[VinylWubs 1,249]

for me the most boring episode was probably the crystal empire and probably dragon quest
