WakkaMole33 2 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 As the title states... I've been challenged to the "I'll watch one episode of your choosing." schtick by non-bronies many times. Which would you choose, and why? Personally, I'm still on the fence about it. I feel as though showing something with more of a dark theme like Lesson Zero might show how it's not just butterflies and rainbows() all the time, but then I don't want the cuteness like in Sisterhooves Social to go unnoticed either.

Cynic 336 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 (edited) Lesson Zero. It's a rare episode that can appeal to absolutely anybody. Edited March 31, 2012 by Cynic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo 206 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 Return of Harmony part 1. It'll get them hooked and wanting to see part 2 for sure Discord is best villain. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slendermane 477 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 I already did. I showed my cousin Lesson Zero. 1 Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonshy 2,305 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 I also like the one CMC one where they go in the talent show 1 Yeh Want to know how to get more page views? Click here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colon Leftbracket 971 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 I'd have to go with Sonic Rainboom! It's probably the best quality episode (although personally not my favorite but Cutie Mark Chronicles might overwhelm them with cuteness). It has a good plot. The characters are pretty strong in it. It centers on Rainbow Dash (which is a popular first favorite among new Bronies), and doesn't girlify things too much for a non-Brony. (Yeah there's giant butterfly wings and a Rainbow but I think those can be overlooked because they match the characters) Also I fun fact about this episode is that Rarity is an antagonist! I just find that a very fun fact! I guess Lesson Zero would work well too, though I find that one a bit too crazy and might give off an odd impression!

Hatguy 38 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 Dragonshy is a great episode to show non-bronies but due to past experience (one facebook post of this episode converted two people to the herd overnight) I have to go with Sonic Rainboom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuteycindyhoney 13,307 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 "It's About Time". Science Fiction fans would get a kick out of it! Thank you Sparklefan1234!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkieplz 8 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 I would chose Season 1 Episode 7 Dragonshy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butter scotch 79 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 Never show a Non-brony Dragonshy. Lesson Zero or Sonic Rainboom are your best bets but i guess Read it and Weep it could work. 1 Did you know: 20Kv's of electricity can kill you from up to 5ft away?

Doctor XFizzle 8,669 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 (edited) Luna Eclipsed Halloween episode, Luna being badass in her entrance then being adorable "The fun has been doubled!", Fluttershy running into the door then getting squeezed out = funny, Pinkie being cute, "But I wanted to be a zombie next year!"

Why-Gnome-Ear-Fifty 400 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 I feel like I'm the only one who shows Find a Pet... Incredibly non-girly, has a great musical number, and has a turtle. It's got a turtle in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokuc 8,173 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 Lession Zero or Dragonshy. But I'd go for Lession Zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkflame 3,310 March 31, 2012 Share March 31, 2012 Lesson Zero, Party of One, or It's About Time. All three of these in their own way totally subvert what one would expect is a "girly" show.

Daedric Pony 165 April 1, 2012 Share April 1, 2012 I'm surprised I got hooked so bad on this show watching season 1 episode 1... But man Fluttershy was sooo epicly adorable during her first 30 seconds of screen time. I desided right then and there that I would watch every single episode just to get more Fluttershy. 8 minutes in and I was hooked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Awesome One 1,315 April 1, 2012 Share April 1, 2012 Would depend on who I wanted to convert but I'd go with Luna Eclipsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pony Joe 583 April 1, 2012 Share April 1, 2012 I'd go with The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000. It showcases many great things about the show, including: Great script Willingness to approach economic and, to an extent, political issues Awesome songs Willingness to play with the "moral at the end of each episode" formula That's really all there is to say on the matter.

Goodra 531 April 1, 2012 Share April 1, 2012 (edited) "Read it and Weep" because of Daring Do and "it's about time" because of Solid Snake Twi Twi. Edited April 1, 2012 by Big Macintosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akemi Homura 7,680 April 1, 2012 Share April 1, 2012 Putting Your Hoof Down. That episode will destroy any thought the non-brony will have of the show being for "little girls". By god, that episode is definitely not intended for little girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
