Antismurf9001 1,271 November 29, 2012 Share November 29, 2012 So I've been looking periodically to see if we've gotten updates on episode names for season 3, but nothing has been said since episode 9. I don't know exactly when that episode's name was spoiled, but it certainly feels like a long time (to me at least). This has caused my imagination to run wild as I think of why this has happened, thus creating an exceptionally far-fetched theory. Here's the theory: what if... we are being given a 4-part season finale, spread over 2 weeks (2 parts per week). The reason that they're not giving us the episode names is because they don't want us to know the awesomeness that they have planned. In conclusion, I need to hire someone to keep me away from my keyboard when I'm tired.

duidamasterXD 9,627 November 29, 2012 Share November 29, 2012 That would be downright incredible actually, the only issue I have with it is that it would sound suspiciously like a series finale. If they were to do a 4 parter next season then that could be sweet. I'm kinda assuming that the unaccounted for episodes are just Fluttershy and Rarity's episodes though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonBrony 1,468 November 29, 2012 Share November 29, 2012 That would be totally amazing! If you put all four parts together it can technically be a movie heheh. If that were true i wonder what that finale would be like. What would it be about? Well, something epic ofcourse. Maybe have discord in it. But i do have my doubts. Its probably still gonna be a 2 part season finale. In conclusion, I need to hire someone to keep me away from my keyboard when I'm tired. I think i need to do that too... *looks at clock* ... Yeah i definatly need to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dekutree64 713 November 29, 2012 Share November 29, 2012 That seems... not entirely unlikely. They did say there was a reason this season is short, right? My prediction was that they were also working on a movie, but 4 episodes would be the same running time, so that could be how they're presenting it. Also would leave even less regular episodes needing to be done, thus giving almost a whole year to go crazy with the animation and music quality.

I've actually been afraid of a series finale since that commercial mentioning someone (definitely not Twilight of course) finding their destiny. Of course, they never hinted as to what this destiny was, so I'm probably just being neurotic for no reason. 1 "Ceterum censeo background ponies delendas esse" - Stellafera Credit for the Octavia vector goes to the awesome Harmonic Revelations Credit for the creation of my avatar and signature goes to the amazing Wubsie Once again, thanks!

Jammo 986 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 I've actually been afraid of a series finale since that commercial mentioning someone (definitely not Twilight of course) finding their destiny. Of course, they never hinted as to what this destiny was, so I'm probably just being neurotic for no reason.I'm hoping there's a big development with her in the season finale, Celestia revealing her intentions.But not to end the series, just to give the series a sense of progress and direction. Things should get far more adventurous in Season 4 IMO, integrating the villains more actively. Greater stakes but still keep it cute and fun. When there's a sense of continuity and that next adventure over the horizon, it will keep people interested more than Season 4 having "Episode where Pinkie Pie does something silly" "Twilight overdoes something the episode."They can still have silly widget episodes but the end of this season should push bigger things in motion.

I don't think it would be a series finale, because this is just supposed to be a story arc. It would be shorter and have a more defined focal point than an entire, full season.

MatrixChicken 879 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 Could happen, but I think it would be a 3-parter. If you look at the Zap2it TV guide for MLP, it shows the names if all the episodes up to the tenth, excluding episode 8. This leads me to believe that the Wonderbolts Academy episode could be a two-parter! Or, Zap2it could be wrong.

In fact when I checked the episode for next week, it showed that Magical duel would be an hour long episode, but now it is back to just a half an hour episode. So it could be Wounderbolt academy well be the 2 parter. Made by Gone ϟ Airbourne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't think this is the last season (At least I certainly hope not) but a four part episode does sound like something they would do to end the series, at least to me.
