First post, and its from a phone. I've watched every episode (pretty much) of MLP;FiM (to varying degrees) because i have a daughter and she loved it. Because it such a solid show in so many respects I have come to love it. I found these forums looking for a link to S4 episodes because WE both were dying to see new MLP (watched equestria girls 15+ times lol) and lurked a bit since. I have never felt the need to post until now...
This episode was amazing, my favorite of the entire series... And thats saying alot, i hold a lot of episodes in extremely high regard and cant really say "That sucks!" To any episode so far. This "cartoon" is just trancendent. So far beyond anything i watched in my childhood and the discussions it spawns between me and my daughter are priceless.
Ive always been a RD fan. What athletic guy isnt? But Pinkie has always been second. Not really a close second but i like to laugh and Pinkie is funny and reminds me of my 4 yr old daughter. Unspoiled optimism. The need to be liked. Naive trust. Amazing emotionally but uninspiring (shes an earth pony, kinda boring.) But this episode has vaulted Pinkie into my best pony spot.
She is clearly the most empathic pony. Everything she does is selfless. I mean seriously, does Pinkie have a job? RD busts clouds, Twily works for the government, AJ is a farmer, Rarity is a Tailor, Fluttershy is a vet im assuming and they all have their own houses. Pinkie? Throws sick parties and lives (rent freeprobably) with The Cakes. What, if not emotional/spiritual/social support is she providing to the Ponyville community? Her one asset is challenged in this episode and she realizes how fleeting can be the role of class clown can be. I think we have all wanted tobe that pony and we have all failed on some level to live up to it/given to being too "cheesy".
I loved this episode and am going back for thirds and this is the first episode ive watched without my daughter. Brilliant!
Best song of the series IMO. Reminded me of early Tegan ad Sara.
