I can't believe that Izzy baked Pipp into a pie. I thought that community had made Pipp as the violent pony instead of Izzy.

Admittedly my least favorite so far. 

Kind of silly circumstances with a very silly way to reach the overall moral of the the episode they were trying to deliver, "running around inside a giant pie and causing absolute hysterics after your friend somehow didn't see you when baking a giant pie, "way to use your head Pipp" xD and you could obviously tell those are pony legs sticking out from under the pie lol

I do think it's cute though that Jazzy girl is one of the ponies in Maretime Bay with the biggest stomachs xD and her reaction lol maybe she would have won

[DivineMist1000 71,359]

I thought this was one of the funniest episodes so far! Just the fact that Pipp got trapped in a pumpkin and then baked into a pie was hilarious!

It was also funny when Rufus kept eating while everypony was running away from the Zompie and also seeing Hitch freak out at seeing the Zompie too! 

It was also a nice little thing that Pipp can always rely on her friends to help her, no matter how strange the situation is! 

Another fun episode as usual!

Jazz was cheated! She didn't order that pie "to go"!

LOL what was that?!  Bizarre episode, nothing made sense but I admit I thought it was funny. Pipp somehow made it through, impressive feat considering what she had to endure. 

Jazz really wanted to eat that pie, oh well, maybe on another occasion  . Izzy kind of made 2 references to cupcakes in the last few episodes: first the costume and now baking Pipp.

So instead of the month of terror ending with a Halloween-themed episode, we get a weird fall-themed episode. This one was funny though, so I take no issue. I really do enjoy the random nature of the plot. Pipp gets trapped in a pumpkin, baked into a pie, and then mistaken for a zombie...pie.  It's so bizarre, yet I have to appreciate the creativity and all the good gags. Especially Rufus continuing to eat the pie while every other pony was freaking out and running away, my honest first reaction to that was, "Spot-on.".

I was literally just going to mention this whole episode was giving me cupcakes vibes with Sparky trapping her in the pumpkin and Izzy baking her into a pie. 

[Ganondorf8 11,303]

I'm amazed that Pipp managed to survive being baked into a pie. Under normal circumstances, she would've ended up getting cooked, but I suppose that might have been deemed too grim for a show like this. It was funny how everyone freaked out and couldn't figure out how best to handle a pie with legs. Hey, at least both Zipp and Pipp learned something though I'd say Zipp got the better lesson.

[HereComesTom 2,267]

It was surreal, but hilarious!  The humor was well-timed, I loved how Rufus ignored the chaos and kept eating, and the opening was actually pretty good, too!

I'll admit it's not realistic to expect that Pipp could be baked into a pie without anypony noticing or Pipp being hurt, but we probably shouldn't be too heavy on realism critiques about a show about talking horses that fly, use magic, and have more color variation in their fur than anything that metabolizes in real life.

Though I'm surprised no one tried throwing smaller pies at the big zombie pie.  I mean, they fought a war that way in Appaloosa in G-4, after all!

Oh yeah that's what I mean by saying it's "silly" it's not like it didn't invoke some chuckles lol, but you got a lot of bronies that need to see this comment in regards to the franchise as a whole... 

It's not it's "lack of realism" that makes it my least favorite it's how they portray the moral, of "Pipp getting herself out of a sticky situation on her own"...

[Fluttershutter 2,454]

Okay, that was pretty silly but it made me laugh.

Poor Jazz needs a do-over.

[AlbaTross 1,586]

This episode had a promising start, though it turned pretty quickly into silly slapstick.  Also, how did Pipp survive being baked?  Still, this episode is fine for what it is, so it gets a pass from me.  Well, a G5 quality pass anyways.

I liked how Izzy was just standing there and looking at the chaos while thinking how she messed it up

Pipp also got a really good lesson though; not to rely on her fans all the time for ideas. Though I think they could have gone about it in a different way

"Ehh" I think setting up a stream to prevent almost getting baked to a crisp, ultimately causing panic and hysteria making a total mess of things lol, this was one of those times where calling out to the Pippsqueaks, with how they showed her "thinking for herself"(if you can call it that lol) would have been the objectively wise decision here, it just didn't portray Pipp, "having a crafty idea to save herself" rather, struggling in a frenzied panic, causing everypony else to panic, causing a bunch of damage and ultimately ruining the contest, she didn't have an "idea" she was in a desperate panic lol, it didn't put points up points for her in that regard... 

Edit: I HONESTLY thought, with the gravity of the bizarre situation they would round the moral to, "it's okay to ask for help, being able to work with others is a strong point", but no, lol just a weird way to show that this is Pipps competence level, we call this "thinking" for Pipp..

Zipp was basically saying "Online friendships aren't real." but you're one of my Best Friends so I must respectfully disagree with her.

Agreed, there is more than one way in which this episode could have been handled better.  Personally, I really like the idea of Pipp being put in a situation where she has to think of a solution herself, and I thought that was where the episode was going.  Alternatively though, yes, the Pippsqueaks would have been helpful in getting her out of that situation, so being gaslighted by her sister didn't exactly help.  There are certainly worse episodes IMHO, but I think this one had the potential to be one of the better ones if it had gone in a different direction, plus I would have welcomed some character development for Pipp.  Oh well, I suppose that's too much to ask from this series.

A "Pippkin pie" if you will. 

[Skylight Scintillate 2,031]

I thought it was funny if I didn't think too hard about it. It felt a bit like the slapstick humor that the others keep talking about. And I get that it's a five minute cartoon so it shouldn't be thought about too deeply, but the more I think about it, the weirder I find the episode, and it doesn't exactly sit well with me.
