What's the most "it exists" episode of FiM?

Here's an interesting question that crossed my mind recently. Which episode of FiM is the least talked about, whether positively or negatively?

I'm inclined to go with "Games Ponies Play" from season 3. I've never seen anyone describe this episode as particularly good or bad, and I barely even remember what it was about. If you ask me, it just exists and there's not much else to it. :huh:

"Slice of Life" is the most "it exists" episode in all of Friendship is Magic, IMO. 

"Sparkle's Seven" was similar with the references etc. but I felt like that episode had more of a reason to exist.

S6 was such a poor season that Buckball Season was looked at more positively when it came out, but nowadays with the show as a whole behind us, it's undoubtedly one of the most mid episodes the show's ever put out

What about Discord?(E22/S5) It just exists, the episode doesn't affect anything in character development what so ever, it was just a weird episode that just felt like a filler episode.

From a personal perspective, "The Perfect Pear" and any of the Big Mac x Sugarbelle episodes, I literally forgot what happens in these episodes, "Hard to Say Anything" maybe is a exception because of the CMC and Big Mac's rival, I think they were funny haha :ButtercupLaugh: But these episodes are important for the story since they develop Sugarbelle & Bigmac's relationship and the former shows the past about Applejack's parents.

From a story perspective, well, I really liked "Games Ponies Play" and I can remember very well the plot with the Mane Six confusing the inspector, with the fake one getting the best day of her life and the true one being extremely unlucky, but story-wise, well, yeah, maybe it was indeed very irrelevant, but it's a Season 3 episode, and for me it's very hard for a episode from the first 4 Seasons to not be memorable, so since they are my favorites, I'll try to be fair here...I'll say "Spike At Your Service", I really like Spike, and Applejack is my favorite character, so I expected that a episode focused on these two would be amazing, but I think they somehow struggled to make that episode minimally memorable, and I just don't think it added anything to the characters or the story, for me it's definitely the weakest episode of the entire first 4 seasons of the show and one that I can for sure say that it wasn't good, which is a surprise because all the other 90 episodes for me were good or beyond that, so yeah, I guess not even my farm girl saved it :mlp_lie:

Now for the "Which episode is the least talked about?" part, no idea, can't expect for the community, it's the same if you asked me "which Dragon Ball saga is the least talked about?", I just don't know :BornAgainBrony:

For me, it's The End in Friend. Seriously, who didn't forget about this one? 

"Rainbow Dash and Rarity are fighting! They make up! The end! :eager:

I know I've been saying, "unremarkable", a lot lately...but this episode is the definition of that word. :maud:

For me  Baby Cakes and Surf and/or Turf come to mind.

Baby Cakes : "Pinkie takes care of Mrs Cake's newborn kids" that's the whole story :maud:

The Last Laugh is also an episode that just exists.
