That’s sweet.

Yeah I miss the humour too, but since the show has matured a bit, many humour is lost and will probably not return. 

That is similar to me when i was watching S6  I really missed S2 during S6. Right now, i finally get over it, nothing stay unchange forever, i dont have any ability to change the way it is so i learn to adapt. 

Old writers, they all gone now, dont expect the show can return to what it was or your enjoyment of the show will ruined by everytime you wish it could return to what it was.

I just want more PONIES, enjoy Good episodes and screw bad episodes  

This ep remind me of the old days: FUN.  Nothing too complex, nothing too meta, nothing too political  Josh knows how to write a fun episode.

@Lambdadelta Didn't realize this was Haber. Kinda glad for that, because that would have raised my expectations unreasonably high. This is actually one of my least favourite episodes he's done so far, but it once again confirms that he is easily one of the best writers on the show right now. So glad to have him back! 

Oversaturing it may lead to flanderization. Careful what you wish for.

Some people think that is already the case and they have a point but I don't mind. 

Bout time. We need more family development within the mane 6.

We're finally gonna meet Rainbow Dash's parents!!!

Fantastic episode best episode of the season easily tops slice of life 

@Mane 6 I like those two episodes about the same. Both are delightful. 

That happens to me occasionally. 

I beat Super Mario World easy when I was 12 years old. I played again a couple of months ago and I kept dying at the first couple of stages. I  played yesterday and I was suddenly cruising through it. 

Maybe it depends on mood. I'm getting tired at the moment. 

It really should have been a two parter to flesh out... well, everything. Also, not that I dislike Twilicorn, but some rare times I feel it was a pointless change. I mean, things did come about from it, but were they substantial enough?

That sort of upgrade in legal status and responsibilities can't have been easy, so I wish the show would delve further into that. I don't think the idea lacks potential, but as is it doesn't seem to have had much of a purpose.

Maybe don't rely on 4 different scores? I don't see why you need to have four separate scores for different things instead of just having one score, that just seems to over-complicate things. Or just drop scores completely. I don't think adding arbitrary numbers or letters don't really do much good

@Kiryu-Chan You're probably right. I started doing this a few years ago on a whim but now I'm mostly keeping to it out of habit. I do like scores though, for pretty much the same reason that I like ranking things. 

You’re actually probably right. 

But that makes me wonder why the show hasn’t included more interaction between those two. I could see them getting along very well. 

There’s probably a limit of how much Discord audiences can handle, and they preferred other stories. 

I agree, this episode was absolute garbage compared to Rock Solid Friendship. Up till now in the season it felt like a storyline showing the development of starlight but no.....random episode comes flying in and now apparently Fluttershy is one of the most assertive ponies out of the mane 6.

Fluttershy's assertiveness was established in season 6, and I fully expected that Starlight wouldn't be the lead of every episode, but I don't think either this or "Rock Solid Friendship" come even close to "A Flurry of Emotions." All I want is for this show to be fun. Is that too much to ask? 

Maybe Fluttershy too, but not for lack of interest.

Applejack could just say she's a cowmare. 

I don't remember any special named One More Day?

@Kiryu-Chan That’s the first song in “Best Gift Ever.” I had to look it up

I need to continue the campaign actually.

Oh, it's fucking rad. One cool new idea after another. 

I do! 

Just in case you want to be surprised. 

Oh my. I have a vague sense of what's going on, but I'm not sure I want to know more. 

Did recent episodes try to talk about her past?

Not since season 5, which fucked it up royally. 

Sadly you cannot unfollow a single status update. There's no option to do so, other than muting them all, that is.

It's not possible to unfollow an update per se, but deleting all of your responses to that update would have the same effect.

but I also think it had no right being as solid as it was. Kinda like this show as a whole, really. 

It sounds like you're saying that the show could've been worse, and I kind of agree with that, but it really should've been much better than it was especially since it got over 200 episodes and plenty of other tie-in media.

@Number62 Well, yeah. This show has been genuinely great just often enough to make all of its flaws especially frustrating. It could easily have been so much better. 

Isn't that fabulous? 

Rarity is over the place. 

Even worse is some people still aren't over the S3 finale. :\

They wont get over S5 finale and they wont get over S6. It's time to GET OVER these guys.

*NEIGHS ANGRILY* 

tsk these neighsayers....

This is how I felt too. The episode didn't really have any high stakes to it and nothing it did was extremely memorable and it was also quite simple, but I think that is why I liked it more than A Royal Problem. It felt more fun than anything and that worked really well. 

@Kyoshi I much preferred "A Royal Problem," and even found that episode funnier, but this did feel like it had more space to breathe. I'm just glad we had two funny episodes in a row, because I have not had a great time with the rest of this season. 

i'm too busy thinking about cats all the time

don't show me a cat video, i will legitimately start crying

Not bad

Season 2 was one of the best though.  I did not know people here actually disliked it but I guess everybody has different tastes.  I liked season 5 as well though (mostly the first half) so I guess I can sort of see were people are coming from.

I think part of it was because S2 had a lot of exaggerated and annoying characterizations (particular towards the jerk end). Bronies tend to get pissed off at jerk behaviour.

pssh, DBZ was the one anime you could watch and still be deemed cool

@Kiryu⚡Chan My idea is that she has the wrong idea about what is and isn’t cool, I mean she only just came around to adventure novels of all things. 

If we’re getting into specific shows I’m not qualified to comment, but that seems about right. Maybe Fluttershy finally convinced her to watch something else...
