Does anyone feel that the episode titles are among the most creative?

[TheAnimatorOfficial 567]

Does it seem to you that this show is REALLY good at naming episodes, especially compared to other cartoons?

[Jeric 46,890]

Last year they had a Philip K. Dick story reference, and this year a John Green novel reference. Yeah I definitely agree that they can be fairly creative. 

[Scootalove 10,692]

Last season and this season did stem from a lot of references to media and novels, I commend the team who comes up with these titles.

[Flutterstep 47,340]

Tanks for the Memories has always stuck in my head. Such a simple but powerful title.

[cmarston1 5,965]

While I wouldn't necessarily say that the episodes titles are the best ones form every show that I have ever watched, I do admit that there has been many great ones that I have really enjoyed.

Such as Magical Mystery Cure, Gauntlet of Fire, Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep, Flight to the Finish, Filli Vanilli, Hearthbreakers and Luna Eclipsed.

[Wind Chaser 4,769]

It really depends. Some of them can be really great cultural references like the ones mentioned, and others can be great takes on common phrases like "Over a Barrel" or "A Dog and Pony Show". However, some of them are just terrible, too punny, or could be better. It's become a sort of mixed bag lately, especially with terrible, non-descriptive two-parter names like "The Cutie Map", "The Cutie Re-Mark", and "The Crystalling" (though the latter is mainly from a pun in the episode itself).

Actually, that made me think of the title of a FallOutBoy song: thnks fr th mmrs

"Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep" should win a daytime Emmy for best parody or pun episode title.

(They should really have that!)

[Alphys Hedge 671]

They're pretty good, but not the absolute best I've ever seen.

[Rarity Is Best Pony 636]

I have to say they are some of the more creative when it comes to episode titles. I especially like their usage of puns. 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,205]

I do love how quite a few titles have been references to things that much younger viewers would have nearly zero chance of knowing. Goes to show that this show is quite different, but this is just one piece of proof among many.

 

I mean, we aren't getting titles like 'Pwetty Pwincess Pickles Gets Picked On" or anything like that, so that alone makes them good in my book.

[Roughshod 721]

Compared to what? I remember in the earlier seasons(and still in the two part adventure arcs) that the titles were more expository and lately they've become much more pun related for better or worse as the case may be.

 

This season hasn't impressed me all that much. 'No Second Prances'? 'Flutter Brutter'? Try again people.

True. Sleepless in Ponyville and Filli Vanilli are prime examples of that.

Best princess related title: Luna Eclipsed. It's distinctive in that it's clear and easier to remember while also indicative of the episode's theme.

[twiia 1,844]

Yeah, definitely. I haven't seen much shows, but this one certainly is the best at naming.

I do agree that Flutter Brutter is a really weird one...What is a 'Brutter' exactly? XD One would think it is a pun for brother, which yes it is, but that is a pretty brutal misspelling for the sake of a pun, one that isn't even that good either. =P

[Dynamo Pad 11,825]

I would have to say yes. Some of the episode titles are pretty creative, funny and good references to other things.

[An Unknown Pony. 370]

The show has incredible episode titles which consists of funny puns,made up words and foreshadowing.

[SBaby 660]

They're pretty good at it, but it isn't unique.  They just do the same thing Pokémon does with THEIR dub episode titles.  They just turn something about the episode into a pun and make that the name.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if they had a MLPTNC (My Little Pony Title Naming Committee) that came up with the episode names.

i think most of the episode titles have some creativity when the show is still running
