MLP x Jem and the Holograms could also be tons of fun. And in general, the IDW comics have had some good stories, but a new perspective would be interesting to see.

The problem I had with the other Pillars is that somehow Rockhoof was the only one who had any difficulty adapting to modern Equestria - everypony else just breezed through that part. Real missed opportunity there. It probably doesn't help that the Student Six were introduced immediately after them, and with only two seasons remaining.

Plus they complained when the CMCs went off to have fun at the fair instead of sticking around to keep giving them advice. Evidently, that was all just a ham-fisted means of reinforcing the episode's intended moral. It was implied that Biscuit and Spur lived within walking distance of the fairgrounds - the [claimed] issue with the CMCs needing a chaperone was for taking the train from Ponyville to Appleoosa, never mind that they had successfully taken the train by themselves in "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Tolls" and "The Last Crusade". Plus Biscuit and Spur were revealed to be older than the CMCs, which combined with the Ferris wheel scene equals strong evidence that this episode was originally meant to take place in an earlier season. Back in Season 7, the Crusaders were running a children's day camp with no adult oversight. And here, we're to believe that if not for being magically aged up, they'd be too young to ride a humble Ferris wheel? Does not compute.
