Marshmallow 1,137 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Some guy made and compiled a graph detailing the screen time that each pony gets per episode and in total. I thought this was pretty interesting. Sources: http://dziadek1990.d...lysis-306058960 http://bronyman.blog...creen-time.html So it seems that in order, Twilight gets the most screen time (that was expected), then Pinkie Pie (14.28%), then Rarity(14.21%), then Rainbow Dash (14.01%), then Applejack (12.68%) and finally Fluttershy gets the least (12.64%) Pretty interesting if you ask me. But poor Fluttershy, I hope she gets more acknowledgement from the writers in season 3! 11 "There was me, that is Pinkie, and my three droogs, that is Rarity, Rainbow, and Fluttershy, and we sat in the Ponyville Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

Nas 2,874 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Hm.....very, very interesting indeed. It's statistic overlooks like this that we need more of. Even if this doesn't have anything to do with proving in-show logic, etc. 1 My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012.

WhiteLightning 339 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 This is relevant to my interests.....I love reading graphs like this! And I agree, Fluttershy needs more screen time. How could the writers do such a thing to such a cute and kind pony?

Whiteshade 1,427 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Fluttershy had less screen time than AJ, and Applejack was virtually nonexistent in S2! 1 Warning: Signature may cause seizures, owner will sue you if you complain Nothing happens, yet everything changes.

My little pwny 1,392 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Crazy.... how did they analyze this? Did one dude just watch every episode and count the seconds? I'm glad someone did this though.

spas-ticShotty 3,588 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Fluttershy doesn't need more screentime, 'cause everybody loves her so much . Applejack is the one who needs it, 'cause not a lot of people give her love 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas 2,874 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 Chill guys, I assume they try their best to even it out, and at this point, it seems near impossible for them to keep track of every single second of their respective screentime amounts. Somepony has to be the least amount of screentime, it's all about quantity, not quality. Despite the fact that Applejcak had possible the least prominent amounts of roles in the series, especially season 2, she's apparently been on long enough to surpass Fluttershy. And I wouldn't think the crew used favoritism/biased in this, it's about everypony. My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012.

Rarity didn't have many prominent roles in season 2 either, probably less than Applejack, as they were mostly tacked on in the beginning. Her screentime is slightly surprising to me actually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her screentime is slightly surprising to me actually. Also, don't forget the random episdoes they appeared in as shared main roles/supportive roles, that gives them a chunk of extra seconds. Such as Rarity and Pinkie in Putting Your Hoof Down, or Fluttershy and Rarity in Green Isn't Your Color. 1 My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012.

WildCard 1,037 June 3, 2012 Share June 3, 2012 I think Rarity has a lot of Screentime because of the "dramatic" scenes, which usually last a bit longer/speaking is slower for dramatic effect OC was made by Princess Ariona.

Crystal Sparkle 344 June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 Wow...and here I thought Fluttershy had the second amount of screen time...boy was I way off. ~I love the way Storm Spark makes love to me!

Marshmallow 1,137 June 4, 2012 Author Share June 4, 2012 Crazy.... how did they analyze this? Did one dude just watch every episode and count the seconds? I'm glad someone did this though. Yeah, I think he said he watched every episodes with a stopwatch, counting the time that every pony appeared on screen. It must've taken forever! You really gotta appreciate all the hard work that went into this!
