I don't understand when any brony or ex-brony believes FIM is undergoing seasonal rot since whatever season.
- Even in their worst seasons, FIM still churns out many good episodes, sometimes great. At worst, S3 and 6 are mediocre.
- After a suspected jump-the-shark episode, FIM always bounces back. Back in S5, I said Princess Spike (and the ending) might've been FIM's jump-the-shark moment. Instead, we got Amending Fences two weeks later, and S5 went on its way into becoming the show's best. The following season, DHX wrote the best Spike episodes of the show and gave him the consistent characterization he sorely needed. S7 had so few bad episodes that you can count them with one hand.

I agree with your opinion on Season 6 & like @Dark Qiviut said
Season 7 made me feel more confident about Friendship is Magic's future after I had initally
been pretty worried myself.

Well, S6 had a promising start with the Crystaling - some nice world building, some new characters, and much amusement at Shiny. Luna's song as the Spirit of Hearthswarming Future is awesome, and there are some other really good moments in the season (hold on; if twi does her pinkie pie voice for Present, does that mean she was doing a Luna voice for Future?
)
. So I wouldn't say its highs weren't high enough, but some of the lows were pretty bad. I think it may look worse when you consider S7 may have been one of the strongest seasons to date, so the contrast is high.
