Simple question really, which background pony (or minor role pony) do you think should have their own episode? and why?

I was going to make a poll, but realized their are way too many to fit into one poll :(

I think Big Macintosh needs an episode about him. He's been in enough episodes and been referred to enough that he has an established identity AKA he's not like Bon-Bon with her ever-changing voice.

 

I wouldn't mind there being a little story involving him. :mellow:

Octavia. Or do you mean minor character? Because background ponies implies that they're just for the background. Big Macintosh is a Minor Character since he does stuff, has spoken lines, and appears in many of the episodes.

 

Eh, I'd still say he's eligible for being a "background character" since, well, sure he's spoken, but if I remember correctly he has more background appearances than actual appearances.

Big Macintosh: He's big, he's tough, he's wise, he says Eeyup and Nnope, he's a ginger, he... loves stuffed critters. That's about all we know of ole' Mac, he needs his own episode! Eeyup!

 

Fleur de lis: She the most gorgeous pony I've ever seen in the entire show, admires the rich and fabulous, and she loves to stretch her body around Fancy Pants. That's all we know about her. She needs her own episode AND brushable.

 

Lyra & Bon Bon: Sisters? Best friends? Lesbian lovers? I dunno, they need to clear things up in their own episode.

 

Derpy: Why is she derp-eyed, what is her talent that involves bubbles? We need to know in her own episode.

 

And that's about all the background characters that need their own episode, Ocavia and Pon3 are just musicians and should stay background characters which is why I didn't mention them, but, it would be nice to see some dialog from them.

I would like a Vinyl/Octavia episode. I completely disagree with everyone else; Lyra and Bon-Bon are too commonly used to be established characters, and Derpy should stay as she is; a where's waldo style character. Plus, I'll get crap for saying this, but

And Big Mac is not a background character, seriously guys. xD

I suppose if it's alright when everypone else, one about the Mayor, or partially about her, since I suppose she has the most character out of them.

 

The suggestion from Luigi and Zero are rather nice.

The only secondary pony who might get their own episode would have to be Big Macintosh. As for Background ponies, i could see them making a little filler episode giving us a bit more Ditzy (Derpy :P). However I'd say the chances for that are a bit slim.

 

The one I would love to see have a greater role, would have to be Big Macintosh though. He is, in fact, best oversized pony ;)

it depends if it is done correctly , while I do sorta agree with you, I don't see how an episode would exactly ruin the where's waldo style character, unless she was meant to be like a secret character, although I am sure everyone knows about derpy already anyway. Edited by Flare

I wanna see Dr. Whooves do something. I think he'd have a cool episode. Or Lyra, I think she could realistically have an episode in which she's an old classmate of Twilight's or something.

The Doctor

 

He travels through time with the help of his TARDIPS (Time and Relative Dimension in Pony Space) and returns to various moments of Equestria's history including the founding of Equestia (Dirtville/Pegasopolis/Unicornia), the rise of Discord, the vanquishing of Nightmare Moon and Discord.

Not saying it would ruin her, but if there were and episode I'd be cool about it and probably enjoy it. I still think an episode centered around a clumsy derp would just be too cliche to be actually good, but that's my opinion.
