Uhm, didn't Bulk Bicepts fly in the tornado AND join the Wonderbolts academy?

What happened [face_tongue]

Overall, I thought there were a lot of problems with the episode, but I still liked it quite a bit

Oh that's right, I forgot episode 11 wasn't the one everyone was getting hyped about, it was episode 12 =P

Will watch later today

We didn't see his cutie mark, so we don't know it's him

If only we saw him jump up a flight of stairs we'd be able to confirm it's him

And yeah, that episode was kind of weird, still really enjoyable though. I was kind of sad that Rarity and Applejack didn't get more time together, I thought them taking care of Discord would have been hilarious.

8/10

That was fantastic.

And it's just another clear swing in a different direction for the series. The humor is becoming ever more self-aware (the throwaway to Gummy, holy crap was that out of left field).

And they just made a blatant OC for Weird Al, but they completely embraced it so it enhanced the zaniness rather than feeling out of place.

It's kind of odd that AJ's key episode is going to be the first one in the entire show about her being honest

It felt like a special rather than a regular episode to me. Partly to do with all the music, partly because they so strongly built it around the guest voice. The episode was meant to stand out much like the character himself.

I'm all caught up on pones now, Season 4 is indeed pretty great. Loved the Apple Family song in Epi 10(?) and that last episode was awesome. Felt longer than 20 minutes, so much in it and it didn't feel rushed.

Just read the synopsis for the next episode, and I'm kind of skeptical. Seems like it could really funny or just plain bad

Possibly being Rarity's first episode

6/10, it was alright. Not a fan of that kind of story, but they did it well enough. A few good jokes in there as well.

yeah, that was pretty stupid

And yet I couldn't help but crack a smile. Call it a guilty pleasure 7/10

EDIT: Oh, and I could have done without the excessive ship fuel.

The main problem I had with the episode was that it's exactly the plotline people are afraid of when they hear the name of the show.

That said, it did at least go out of its way to exaggerate the hell out of the cliche for humor. Rarity's freakout when she jumped in the mud was a fairly significant point of redemption for the episode overall

Still, one of the lesser entries in the season.

Finally watched it. It had some really good moments but it just kinda ended way too fast.

7.5/10, good episode. The songs were great, but everything else was only okay. But the episode gets a .5 for that hilarious Pinkie line.

+ Crazy Pinkie Pie
+ Good song, I really like the quartet stuff
+ Funny premise
+ Fluttershy dancing out of joy as she sings is SO FUCKING ADORABLE

- Structure-wise, it's another 'Fluttershy needs more confidence' episode
- Ending rushed

Upper half for the season

Thought it was an awesome episode. Still probably think the newspaper episode is the best CMC ep

And Sweetie Belle's voice actor getting older =P

Level 22 is enough.
Thing is, they did not take their studies seriously until they had their little kerfluffle there. Very little progress was made before they embarrassed themselves vs the VAST progress they made after it. At the rate they went in the weeks? after the incident Sweetie has really gotten better with magic and Apple Bloom is quite the budding alchemist.

8/10. It was a great episode, the breezies were good looking, one sounded like a small version of the Swedish Chef, and the moral was pretty good. My one complaint is the random transformation spell that came out of nowhere to solve everyone's problem. That really killed the mood for me.

Not sure about this ep

Thought it was pretty boring, with the most exciting part seeing the Doctor and Rose cameo

The breezies themselves were kind of weird, from their design to their sweedish accents

And I was not expecting

This to be a key episode. I don't know how I didn't see it coming now that I think about it

7/10

This episode... no. Plot line was maybe average, humor was just not there, and then that transformation... bleh

Moral was above average, but I don't watch for the lessons

Main Breezie was kinda okay, their overall design was not doing it for me though.

It's one of those episodes that made me think, "Okay, if I'm trying to get someone to understand why people enjoy this show, I'm definitely not going to be showing them this." Everything about it just felt saccharin and safe.

8/10, very good episode. Applejack was pretty annoying in it, but everything else in the episode made up for that. Great development for Applejack and some awesome designs towards the end.

Funny episode, though AJ was kind of excessive, but I guess that was the point.

Only two problems I had. Scoot shouting in the closet was dumb. And the moral was a bit confused. It seems like to establish independence, you should go out and do something incredibly stupid and dangerous.

Still an 8/10 though. The song fake out got a good chuckle out of me.
