I Bring Da LULZ 131 July 20, 2015 Share July 20, 2015 THIS EPISODE WAS PERFEEEECT!! The dialogue, the humor, the plot, the everythingggg. This one and the Manehattan one are tied for my most favorite S4 episode so far (I'm watching em all in sequence to catch up ) I like to make songs about candy-colored ponies and talking rocks!

ShutterBat 134 August 6, 2015 Share August 6, 2015 I must say I absolutely LOVE this episode! The song is amazing, even though Granny Smith probably should not sing .. lol. It is one of my favorite songs in the series though. The fact that these two characters could possibly be related is fascinating. They're great together.

Graystrip 551 November 21, 2015 Share November 21, 2015 Most funniest scenes are in this episode. I love Pinkie's positive attitude, even when times were rough. Its so infectious. Applejack tried so hard to make her family seem perfect. Does Big Mac have a crush on Pinkie? He tried to make himself look so good that he didn't realize that he loaded the wagon heavier than he should. My favorite part was when Pinkie was taking their pictures down the waterfall. Reminds me of those rollercoaster pictures you see at theme parks. Images were taken from mlp.wiki.com 2 "Scarf? Check. Saddle? Check. Boots? Check. Spike refusing to get up and going back to sleep?

powerpuff-tsubasa 448 May 19, 2016 Share May 19, 2016 that's sort-of-a promising episode, but there's nothing I want to add. Overall, it was meh~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 June 25, 2016 Share June 25, 2016 I really liked this episode quite a lot. It was a lot of fun and Apples to the Core was a great song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrond 3,263 January 6, 2017 Share January 6, 2017 Think this is about my fourth or fifth time through this one; increasingly loved it the last few times, but this time a bit less so. The song still sounds great, but it's not really about anything much more than "we're a close family," which is warm and charming but which the episode also makes half-ironic through just how much the Apple bicker. The verses don't add much to that either, although they're, again, warm and melodically pleasing. Gotta give mad props to the composition, though, with all its soaring melodies and its diverse instrumental. I do wonder how the Apples can pull the cart while they're dancing, though; seems like that takes skill. "Charming but insubstantial" describes this episode pretty well, actually. Its main moral - that what makes a family isn't a lack of fighting but the ability to weather through it - is nice, though not something that personally resonates with me, but the secondary moral, that whether or not Pinkie's part of the Apple family hardly matters, increasingly doesn't seem like something I ever needed proven. Then again, I've watched this several times, so maybe it's just that speaking, and the idea that shared experiences and close relationships define "family" more than lineage is something I do appreciate. The funniest moments of this are when it steps away from the family bickering, which this time around I found kinda tiresome. Everything Pinkie does ranges from charming to laugh-out-loud hilarious, and while the cold open contains one of the show's funniest images (Applejack's face when Pinkie hugs her), the best gag to me is when Pinkie silently reads the note to herself. She's eccentric, but, aside from her mad Jenga skills, she's mostly grounded in some form of reality, and her hyperactivity is easily linked to genuine emotion. Aside from her, the episode's at its funniest when it just gives into pure slapstick, like the scariest cave in Equestria or the waterfall. Unfortunately, it often comes back to the Apples fighting, which is just tedious, especially when I know where it's going. Maybe my lesser reaction here is just because the element of surprise is gone, but it's still fun. Score: Entertainment: 7/10 Characters: 8/10 Themes: 7/10 Story: 6/10 Overall: 70/100 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moony the Cat 3,702 January 14, 2018 Share January 14, 2018 (edited) I liked this Episode, it was very entertaining and funny to watch^^ Just sad, that it wasnt revealed, if they are related or not, but i guess if they would have found out, they couldnt tell the Message very good. The only Thing that annoys me, is that one gag, in which Big Mac says nothing but " Yeah " and " nope ". We saw him talk in the first Season, we saw him talk in the second Season and now he was to talk again in the fourth Season, so why did it became a joke that he apparently cant talk? I dont think its funny, it just makes me angry. Edited January 14, 2018 by Luna Moon Sig made by Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbertha 414 July 24, 2018 Share July 24, 2018 This episode was simply a lot of fun. It also had a nice moral and song, but aside from that, there's not much else to say. Score: 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meushell 52 August 3, 2018 Share August 3, 2018 This was a fun episode. Pinkie and her scrapbooking was great. Pinkie’s tail is truly something. I thought she stretched it out in the end. After seeing a comment here about it being detached, I took another look. You can’t see it when she’s with the group, and while it could just be behind her and the Apples, you do see it in the picture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerE 96 October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 Pinkie always makes everything so exciting! This feels like it would have been an ordinary episide without her, but she made it so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbertha 414 January 23, 2019 Share January 23, 2019 This episode is fine. There's nothing really wrong here, but there's nothing that interesting either. The jokes are better than usual, but they're too repetitive with most of them being about a member of the Apple Family doing something wrong and everyone trying to keep Pinkie from noticing their frustration. And Pinkie has her annoying voice in this episode which makes it slightly annoying. But, I like the moral here. Families argue, but that's natural. And I like that it's not really known whether Pinkie is or isn't related to the Apples. It makes the resolution more interesting and it works well with Pinkie being called an honorary member of the family since it allows the resolution to still be satisfying while also staying ambiguous.

Rushing cash 836 May 3, 2019 Share May 3, 2019 An entertaining episode with a lot of nice characters moments and a catchy song as well. It came kinda out of nowhere, as far as I recall it was never hinted before that they were relatives so it was a bit of putting but the episode itself was fun for sure. 8.5\10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMTV99 1,352 May 10, 2021 Share May 10, 2021 I thought it was a cute episode. The jokes are really funny, I love Pinkie and Applejack's dynamic, and Goldie Delicious was a pretty fun character. There's one part in the episode that I didn't really care for was the song. The lyrics were decently memorable, but it was very repetitive and the beat wasn't as catchy as I hoped it would. While it not as obnoxious as Raise this Barn, but it was forgettable at best, in my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astralshy 26,369 May 10, 2021 Share May 10, 2021 Fun and cute episode which I really like. I think many people are sad that it has never been answered if these two families are related or not. For me it's not a big problem because I share AJ's opinion on that it doesn't matter what a books says or not. In my second watch I understood the Twilightliscious reference from AppleBloom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosy Moonlight 369 July 13, 2022 Share July 13, 2022 (edited) I find this episode to be one the best episodes in the whole series. I love the apple family-ness of it all. Edited July 13, 2022 by Rosy Moonlight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found her voice to be too loud in this episode but her behavior was a lot less annoying here so it wasn't too much of a turn-off. Also, I find it adorable that in the epilogue, Cheese Sandwich and Lil Cheese already got to be part of the Apple Family.

StarHeart333 1,763 April 22, 2023 Share April 22, 2023 The funny thing about is even if there IS a relation it's so distant that is basically irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadrien 950 November 15, 2023 Share November 15, 2023 Even thought I'm not a fan of Pinkie Pie, there is one situation where I think her character works great with the straightest man, Applejack. So this episode goes right up my alley, combining the crazy antics of Pinkie, with the Apples. Plus a new banger of a song. The background gags are pretty funny, esp that eagle. The dark cave of inescapable doom, which Granny Smith steer the boat in, works great, and I'm happy we get to see what was in it, even if it's just in post cards. Goldie Delicious and her wave of cats is honestly super funny to me, those cats and their faces always crack me up. I'm happy we didn't get a definite answer to if Pinkie Pie really is related to our Apple Girl. That way, they can learn that it doesn't really matter if you're related by blood, your friends can be as close to you as family if you so choose. I love this episode, I want to go on a road trip with the Apples and go through the cave of doom. 8.5/10 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
