Why we might not have a mid-season hiatus this season

Yesterday I had the feeling that we might not have a mid-season hiatus. Why? Because we're starting the season mid-April and have episodes 1-4, May will have 5-8, June will have 9-13, July will have 14-18 including the EG episodes, August will have 19-23, and September will have 24-26, giving us the movie in early October!

So I got the feeling this season is gonna be like season 4 - non-stop pony action without any hiatuses!

I also see very unlikely to see any hiatus mid summer. For start, the EG specials are aired in the middle of summer, which they've never aired any EG stuff during it, but AFTER. Second and most important: if they DO make a hiatus, we'll still have an unfinished season AFTER the movie is in theaters

I hope y'all are right! *crossing hooves*

With the movie coming out in October, I kinda assumed Hasbro would like to get the season out of the way before the movie is released, so neither would overshadow the other.

Hm, maybe. I sure hope that's the case,  as it would work out perfectly!

Like cmarston said, I think they want to get the tv season all wrapped up before the movie. I'm particularly curious to see how S7 concludes as it may lead into the movie.  Probably not with a pulse pounding cliffhanger, but a tie in nonetheless.
