sweetolebob18 728 May 5, 2015 Share May 5, 2015 (edited) IMO so far the whole season 5 looks like someone told the writers "After Twilight's Kingdom we're going to have to tone it down a notch if we want to keep our TVY rating", but I think someone checks the episodes before they are animated. (lots cheaper to do it that way) Edited May 5, 2015 by sweetolebob18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth Pony 22 May 6, 2015 Share May 6, 2015 ^ But the season opener dealt with communism, and Tanks for the Memories basically dealt with death. If any episodes of MLP really were banned, they probably never made it past the script or storyboard phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles 2,513 May 6, 2015 Share May 6, 2015 It would have been 1000 times better than that Applejack piece of crap version that actually got made. Normally I'd jump to AJ's defense, But, that episode was bad. She can buck apple trees all day, pull a plow, destroy a carnival game - sending the bell flying - against RD, and stop a cart-full of ponies from flying off a cliff... But she can't pick up a rock from her hoof? I agree with you, I'd have preferred to see the original planned episode with Rarity. ~ Miles 3 ~ Rise And Rise Again, Until Lambs Become Lions ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plot twist: AJ could pick her hoof up, she just didn't so that Spike would save her, even though her life was in danger. She wanted Spike to have his heroic moment. She knew that if something were to go wrong, she could easily destroy the timberwolf. That episode has me rolling on the floor regardless. I can't help it, I'd still love it even if it was a feather holding down AJ ------------- I don't think there are any banned episodes per say that we know about, but I do know that the writer's were specifically told to not use punches and energy beams to the face during "Twilight's Kingdom". So they "banned" certain aspects. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think it was one of Spike's best episodes, so, there's that. ~ Miles 1 ~ Rise And Rise Again, Until Lambs Become Lions ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cross 7,532 May 6, 2015 Share May 6, 2015 In my opinion, if an episode isn't good enough to be aired, then I don't really wish to watch it. I guess if I was a hardcore fan, maybe it'd be a different story. Who knows. Sometimes banned episodes are pretty funny. Other times not. What comes to mind when I think of "banned episodes" are the old pokemon TV series that gave kids epileptic fits and stuff. Now with more added tea leaves!

Dolphanatic 298 June 20, 2015 Share June 20, 2015 (edited) Technically, it isn't a "banned" episode, but when I was at Las Pegasus Unicon, at the writers' panel, one of the writers talked about a shelved episode idea in which Pinkie Pie and the rest of the Mane 6 all started speaking gibberish for fun, only for it to backfire. That's all I know. Edited June 20, 2015 by Dolphanatic 74 Roller Coasters Ridden (64 Steel, 1 Hybrid, 9 Wood)! See me at Coasterpedia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
