Zygen 6,066 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 Now I'm going to assume you have watched all of the series atleast one and this will make the most sense if you've watched the series atleast twice. I'm wondering if anybody has those episodes that when they first started watching MLP, they just didn't like but now they do. Or you just flat out didn't watch the episode at all due to the title or maybe watched a little bit or whatever your reasoning is. I know I've had this happen for alot of episodes, its more common for songs to me, but i have had this happen for a few episodes to. The best example I have is that on my first watch of the series I didn't watch "Suited For Success" now I'm betting your thinking WHAT!? WHY!? Well to be honest I know why, but I still don't get it now today. Basically when I saw the title I assumed that the episode would be to girly because it would be all about them getting dressed up or something.(weird thinking considering I was watching MLP but whatever...) This probably has to do with why I didn't like Rarity very much during most of my first watch of the show. Missing a whole episode dedicated to her.( I know shame on me. Don't worry I eventually started to like her, and I like her now so its cool ). Once I finally watched Suited For Success, and heard Art of the dress I actually ended up liking the episode quite alot, After listening to Art of the dress a few times I also began to appreciate it aswell. I don't think I've skipped any other episodes full on except that one(Well there was the problem where I didn't notice I missed like the last 6 episodes Of S1 untill seeing part of S2... but thats another story...). Anyways does anypony else have an experience similar to mine? Or just an episode that took 2 watches for you to really like? Or am I all alone on this? Thanks to Gone Airbourne for the awesome sig!

ShyForever 284 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I didn't like Hearts and Hooves day the first time I watched. Now it's... tolerable. I totally skipped the Owl episode (forgot the name) because of the reviews I read on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starshine 16,333 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I'm -this- close from not watching the Appleloosa and the Owlicious episode. Both episodes' titles are very boring and the opening aren't that good. I never really liked Spike, having to watch an episode about him is like spending 20 minuted of my life reading about someone I hate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiliscael 3,960 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I never skipped an episode, though I have disliked a few. Mainly Dragon Quest (ick) and One Bad Apple. For both I feel like they tried to do something with the characters and all, but it just didn't work out well. I tend to take the high road, get stoned, and fly low . . .

~Asuka <3~ 867 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I didn't like, and still don't like, Griffon the Brush-Off. The way Gilda treats the other ponies kind of irritates me. She's an annoying character too. Basically, I don't like the episode because of her. 1 #1 Asuka fanboy. Signature created by Thunder Bolt.

gypsy_tambourine 18 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 Never did like the Baby Cakes episode, though I've seen it a few times and I find I'm a bit more tolerant of it now. It just never really caught my interest much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Soul 2,611 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 The one with Philomena, I skipped out on for the longest time, as I just didn't feel like watching it at all. I ended up watching it, and it was a good episode. 1 Soundcloud-------------------Facebook---------------------------Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duidamasterXD 9,627 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I didn't skip any of them. I started at the beginning and raced to the end. There were a few episodes I liked a lot more the second time around, but the ones that jump to mind are Sisterhooves Social ( which I initially didn't think was anything special but grew to like) and Hurricane Fluttershy (which I loved wholeheartedly the first time around and the rewatch promoted it to tied for my second favorite episode) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notdog1996 315 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 Nope, I never skipped an episode. Even if it doesn't seem interesting by the synopsis or the title, I still give it a chance. For reviews and bad comments about an episode, I usually don't see those before I watch so they don't influence my decision to watch it or not. The best example I have is that on my first watch of the series I didn't watch "Suited For Success" Funny since it was the very first episode I watched Anyway I don't really bother with people's opinion on episodes anymore. Mine is quite different from what I saw since I don't like Luna Eclipsed and Feeling Pinkie Keen but loved Baby Cakes, One Bad Apple, Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 and Hearth's warming eve. There's no episode I hate though and I surely wouldn't skip one if I rewatched a season. 2 INTJ Introvert(56%) iNtuitive(12%) Thinking(75%) Judging(1%) You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (56%) You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%) You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (75%) You have marginal or no preference of Judging over Perceiving (1%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxyCryptid 4,330 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I dislike "Mare Do Well" it flanderized RD from just kind of prideful to having full blown egomania. It was just a mess with a semi-bad moral to boot. 3 "You know, I don't know who or what you are Methos, and I know you don't want to hear this, but you did teach me something.

Yeah I can't really say I truly hate any of the episodes now, Theres some I like more then others. but they're all pretty good . Besides everyones going to have different opinions on episodes just like everything. And I never watched any reviews or anything until during like my 3rd watch of the show.

miygaiya 138 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 I watched every episode, and I've enjoyed most of them. The only episodes I don't like too much are the assertiveness one, and also the CMC centered ones. I didn't even watch the episode with the talent show until a few weeks ago. Forgot to watch it before, but I was glad I didn't. :\ I watched every episode, and I've enjoyed most of them.

Silver Bells 78 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 it's probably got to be the discord episode. a few minutes into it i got kind of bored so i just turned it off. i guess it didn't appeal to me very much. naivarr.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galaxia 18 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 As a whole Season 1 pales in comparison to the other two seasons. But I mean, none of the episodes are bad, but many seem like they cater more to kids, which is totally fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champion RD92 8,658 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 (edited) I've never skipped an episode, but the two I disliked were the one where Pinkie babysits, and also the one where Twilight gets an owl.

Night Shine 767 November 26, 2012 Share November 26, 2012 (edited) When I first watched "Baby Cakes" I skipped past most of it. However, I watched it again recently and I really loved the way that it showed how one can be totally crazy-funny but still be responsible. Also, what's up with the Owlowiscious hate? That was one of my favorites (which is to say all of them), especially because of the opening stargazing scene. :3 Still, it may be a bit cheesy, but so are a lot of other episodes. Then again, I shouldn't complain about that because that's kind of the purpose of this thread >.< sorry.

poniesforfun 716 November 27, 2012 Share November 27, 2012 I usually don't like the CMC episodes because they don't feature the six mane and feel like filler for filler to me. I still watch them because there isn't any other episode going on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whofch 128 November 27, 2012 Share November 27, 2012 Never read anything about the episodes before I watched them, not even the titles. Because of that, there wasn't an episode I dreaded watching the first time and nothing would have made me skip an episode without first watching it. The episodes that I disliked the first watch through and actually started appreciating on following views would most likely be any of the Rarity heavy episodes and CMC episodes. It annoyed me that the most annoying main character was stealing my viewing time or that side characters were There are still some that I hated the first time around and still do though. Owl ep and any Pinkie centered eps spring to mind. 1 We were meant to rule together, little sister...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually didn't really see any reviews either, I don't watch reviews (Or read them) Prier to watching stuff most of the time, expecially not for this. And I really don't even watch any now. I've only seen like 3-4 now after watching the show 3 times(On the 4th or was it 5th..).I normally find MOST reviews to be heavily opinionated, however there is some cases that reviews aren't that way. Most of the time if an MLP review is disliking an episode its probably not that bad.(Only one I might agree slightly on is mare do well, but to be honest I actually didn't mind that episode all that much. i started to mind it more after watching a review about it though.)

Uutama 19 November 27, 2012 Share November 27, 2012 No, I have never skipped out on an episode. There is one episode though... I swear if I get welcomed to Appaloosa one more time... Well, the answer is no, I haven't. I do dislike an episode though, that much is certain. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king error 50 November 27, 2012 Share November 27, 2012 Forgot about Sweet and Elite till I re watched seasons 1 and 2, if I remember correctly I think I had a power cut about a quarter way through, got busy doing something else to pass the time and it just completely slipped my mind. So in away I did skip it but unintentionally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkieshyrose 58 November 28, 2012 Share November 28, 2012 i never skipped any episode but i find i sorta hard to tolerate a bird in the hoof only becuase everytime i tried to watch mlp episodes on the hub it was always there and i didnt like how philomena trolled flutershy or how it didnt stop trolling even after flutershy tried to give it medicine Pinkie Pie : "And that's how Equestria was made!"
