Part of me wants to see the overarching storylines more thoroughly developed next season, but I know that's not very likely in a half-hour cartoon aimed at children. I imagine any kind of real relationship drama will have to be done through the comics, since they seem like they're actually targeting an older demographic. -
The problem with S.A.Y.S. for me is that it felt like a wasted premise. The central conflict would've been far more interesting if Spike were his usual helpful self conflicting with the headstrong, prideful Applejack. With the route they took, Applejack undoubtedly had the bigger beef and you just wished Spike would cut it out already. And after watching Games Ponies Play, I can kind of understand why Spike wasn't invited. He would've been a third wheel. It seemed the Mane 6 had the welcoming routine planned out for awhile amongst themselves. I know RD said at the end "too bad Spike couldn't come, he would've had fun", but I don't see what real use he would've been this time. Despite the nobility of his actions, there really aren't that many transferable skills between saving an empire from the apocalypse and welcoming a games inspector. I'm sure when they do an episode about the actual games next year Spike will definitely be there.

I still say Suited for Success because of the terrible message ("Don't speak out if you want something done differently, even if your friend insists that you do.")

I'd only be on board with this if they keep the crew of animators, directors, and voice artists. No celebrities, thank you very much. -
Technically it wasn't made this year, but The Secret World of Arrietty was my favorite US release Other than that, The Dark Knight Rises
