What you thought of season five (the numbers)

[colt .45 259]

I was feeling kind of Twilight Sparkley, and decided to compile some numbers for no particular reason. Not sure this will invoke much discussion, but some might find it interesting.

Eps. Twenty-five and twenty-six "Cutie Re-Marked"

256 votes

Hated it- 7, Didn't like it- 6, Meh- 19, Liked it- 49, Loved it- 175

 

So the premiere and "Slice of Life" tied for the polls with the most traffic. "Slice of Life" also had the most Loved it votes with 307, just barely beating "Crusaders of the Lost Mark" which had 306. Ironically, "Slice of Life" was also the episode with the most hated it votes at eighteen. The second most hated is "Tanks for the Memories" with thirteen hatred it voted. "Princess Spike" and "What About Discord" tie for third, each with ten hated it votes.

Episodes that nobody voted that they hated: "Bloom and Gloom", "Lost Treasure of Griffonstone", "Amending Fences", "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows", "Rarity Investigates", and "Scaremaster". Honorable mention to, "Make New Friends but Keep Discord", which only got one hated it vote.

No surprise that "Princess Spike" got the least loved it votes, with only eighteen. Followed by "Appleoosa's Most Wanted" with twenty-four loved it votes, and "Hoofeilds and McColts" with twenty-five loved it votes.

"Made in Manehatten" and "Scaremaster" had the least traffic with only a hundred and twenty-three and a hundred and twenty-six people caring enough to vote.

 

There you have it, just like Apple Jack, the numbers don't lie. On the other hoof, I may have muddied up the facts with fancy mathematics. Any thoughts?

I strongly agree with the two most hated episodes. Tanks for the Memories pretty much ruined Rainbow Dash for me, and Slice of Life is basically an attempt to cram as many memes as possible into a 22 minute period with no regard to the quality of the writing.

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,328]

These polls are pretty much what I expected. Slice of Life having the most loved and hated votes meaning that it's polarizing, Crusader's of the Lost Mark having a lot of loved it voted and Princess Spike having a lot of hated votes. 

 

It's kind of funny how I see how some of the episodes on here bashed to the ground when they have like a big amount of loved it votes. It kind of proves that people who constantly complain about every little problem in the show are a loud vocal minority.

That was the purpose of Slice of Life episode. To thank the community for being there and sticking with show after all those years.

The best way to thank the community would have been with a well-written, entertaining episode. Not a garbled mess of forced, unfunny references.

I agree somehow with this. Nonetheless, the episode was hilarious for me. Sorry if it wasn't for you, I respect your opinion.

I thought something looked off with that... It only totals 205 votes...

 

Still one of the weakest episodes in the season.

Good catch! I mistakenly wrote the number of responses to the topic instead of the number of votes. Corrected now. Thank you!
