Any ideas for a new Babs episode?

[JayStorm 40]

My idea for one is the CMC go to Manehattan to check on the CMC branch there, The members there want a leader so they make Babs the leader, Babs however is under pressure being the leader having to make all the decisions (oh and Twilight's the one that takes the CMC there) so they work through the episode learning how to deal with pressure and the lesson not only applies to Babs but also to Twilight

I think Babs coming back to Ponyville along with the Manehattan Crusaders and going on adventures with the Cutie Mark Crusaders, sounds like a good idea.

That's a good idea for a Babs Seed episode.

Mine would have to be with Bab's own branch of the CMC meeting with the original CMC and the members of the Manehatten CMC sometimes clash over crusadings of their own with those of Apple Bloom Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo while they and Babs try to find a way to resolve the issues of being or doing something different in the process of getting their cutie marks.

This actually, could work really well. Some of my friends used to be admins of a group based in a large city, and they organized events for around a dozen regular attendees (more on large meetup days) and on more than one occasion, there was more standing around trying to figure out what to do and where to go next, and who was gonna do what, and not much of *actually doing anything*, and it became a problem and a source of frustration.

An episode about making concessions for the sake of actually enjoying more things (more crusadings?) would be a very practical lesson.

I was thinking it would interesting if Babs got her Cutie Mark before the CMC, thus making Apple Bloom jealous of her cousin.

You know, you done stole my idea! Sorta. I made a fanfic of the CMC going to Manehatten, but it's because of Applejack bringing them along to visit her Aunt and Uncle Orange. In it they meet Babs new friends and confront her biggest bully from her old school.  That was my response to reading that there would be no Babs in season 4, which ticked me off given the premise was there with Apple Family Reunion, but AJ kept interupting before we could get any real details. I wanted to know more about her new friends, and if knowing she had five friends would be enough to give her the courage to stick up for herself. But nope! So I made a fanfic about it!

 

It's only like a 20-30 minute read, so check it out if you're interested.

I'll let you know what I think when I'm done, right now I'm doing schoolwork while listening to Mlp/Frozen parodies

This is a good one!

 

Oh, and maybe the Cutie Mark Crusaders going to Manehatten and doing stuff with those CMCs would be a fun idea too! ^^

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,331]

Eay bans tries I start the manehattan cmc.

[Eloquence 2,076]

I like the idea of them going to Manehatten, and I like jealousy as a theme, but I also have my own idea of how that would go down. 

Manehatten is of course a much bigger, more densely populated place then Ponyville, meaning that there would be many more little ponies without there cutie marks around to join the CMC. I'd like to see an episode about this, one where the CMC we know and love goes to meet up with the Manehatten branch and finds a legitimate organized club of 40+ fillies and colts led by Babs Seed, leaving them feeling some major club envy and bitterness that their idea was so much more successful under Babs' leadership.

Just finished the 1st chapter, and it's pretty good, and Diamond Spoon? really

[Castle Bleck 19,387]

But I remember reading somewhere that Barbara will have no more appearances.

 

Only in S4. S5-onward, though... All bets are off.

I was actually really sad to find out that she would not be returning in season 4 (I believe this was confirmed at last year's Comic Con?). At the very least, I would have settled for a cameo of her in Rarity Takes Manehattan. Would've made sense, no?

 

That being said, she could always return next season. I really thought that Apple Family Reunion planted the seeds (pun intended) for a promising story for Babs and the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the future. I'm curious about Babs Seed's CMC branch in Manehattan, as well as the older sister that she mentioned in One Bad Apple, so a future Babs episode could revolve around either of those two. Babs has a really cute Bronx accent, a unique design (that looks like a rotten apple) and I think her character role as the "bad but in a good way" Crusader is an interesting concept. I'm all for a Babs return.

Hey now, that's a good idea!

 

 

Anyway, I'd say having her return would be tricky. I don't see what else they can do with her other than put her in direct conflict with the CMCs, though this time she's not being a sucky cousin. Honestly, I think the well has gone pretty dry with her in many aspects of her character, and having her return with a role as big as she had in "One Bad Apple" would be a bit boring to watch, unless they really got creative and decided to delve into her character.

 

That being said, the dude I quoted made a damn good point; if she could return antagonizing the CMCs indirectly instead of directly, and trying to be a good cousin, it'd still be hard to pull off, but it might work.

 

I'm not a big fan of CMC episodes, and I honestly wish the number of them would get cut down some and let them play the role of little sisters that they fill so well. Maybe Babs Manehattan-ite parents could come and stay on the Apple Farm or something Manehattan ain't a city where they know much about farmwork, it seems that they just hire people to do the work for them instead

WOW, this right here would make a perfect episode for Babs imo. Something like this kind of already happened way back in Season 1 episode 17 (Call of the Cutie) where Twist got her cutie mark before Applebloom. But it wasn't really the main focus of the episode. 

 

Jealously is a great topic that the CMC could focus on. Like bullying, jealously is something that we've all dealt with growing up, so it would be great to see how the show staff would handle such a topic. Plus, it would be interesting to see what her cutie mark turns out to be  .

I'm going to go in a different route for the sake of variance.

 

Episode Title: 'Sprouting Up'

 

Synopsis: Babs Seed returns to the CMC in Ponyville revealing to them excitedly how she finally got her cutie mark. The CMC are all shocked, yet happy for Babs getting her's before them, but struggle to include her in the group's activities with her new found talent.
