Re: My Little Pony: Detractors We Will Tolerate and Love the Shit Out of You
You guys, I have to confess, I'm pretty sure I stopped watching in mid-season-two. I watched all of season one in a row when I discovered how good it is, and then was very excited when season two came out, but then it was only an ep a week so I lost my steam and got busy with other stuff and never picked it back up.
I still love ponies and pony-related stuff, I just don't keep up with the show anymore.

This one was about fitness training, motivation, and confidence, which I know is right up your alley. Also a 'roided up pegasus with tiny tiny wings.
Okay, that sounds like it's worth a watch. I get twitchy about watching episodes of shows out of order (which is why I feel like it's all a bit commitment to try to watch any show), but that's just dumb and twitchy. I mean, it's MLP, not Lost or some shit.

Okay, watched. So awesome! Definitely up my alley, so thanks.
I loved the butterfly tug-of-war, and when the little rabbit combs Fluttershy's hair with a plastic MLP comb.
But I was going pretty crazy that the whole time they were like "Fluttershy! They need you!" the trainer pony from the Wonderfuls is just standing around looking at them. Why tf didn't he get in there? Is it because he's not a member of the local team? Because, yeah, I get not helping them break your team's record, but it was never in danger and the town really needed the water. Way to be, asshole.

That really was beautiful. Poor Fluttershy!
I was expecting her to recruit a bunch of birds.

You've got to be kidding. I've just gone through 37 pages of ponies, and not a single tank in sight.

First things first.
Second, omg, where my bronies at? I was waiting for some of y'all non cable having folken to get all episoded up but now I just can't hold it in no more!
I think I'm a rare breed of brony. The kind who finds the CMC unresistable. They are awesome and adorable. Awesadorablome. I DON'T KNOW. And this was a good CMC episode. My favorite serious part was the letter. I thought it was perfect that they wrote to the town instead of Princess Celestia. A truly excellent touch by the writers. The lesson itself was simple enough but also laced with some complexities (considering the target demographic).
But I howled with laughter, paused the show even to do so when Rarity pulled this:
I mean, COME ON!
(To fill the non watchers in: Rarity discovers that her sister, Sweetie Belle, has been snooping her diary to get juicy gossip stories for the school paper.)

Found it today while boredly browsing. It'll make it easier to show the little one when she wants to watch it. She's pretty handy at navigating Netflix for the shows she wants these days.
Re: My Little Pony: Detractors We Will Tolerate and Love the Shit Out of You
Only two more weeks left in the season,
But I can't really be sad because this has been a fantastic run. Also, royal wedding! I have seen some of the many teasers and I think the two part finale will be seriously awesome. Hasbro has been marketing the heck out of it, but doing so in an awesome way. Check out this announcement they placed in the wedding section of the NYT.
Also, I am stoked to see Twi's big brother Shining Armour. I so want to see the colt mold. I hope they will release him outside of the giant wedding castle playset, otherwise Contra might kill me.

I've just assumed that ponies have a matriarchal society with a tiny number of males, a few dominant females, and oodles of lesbians. This explains a number of things, from MLP fanfic to the supply of toy molds available.

Re: My Little Pony: Detractors We Will Tolerate and Love the Shit Out of You
That was absolutely AMAZING! Seriously, the two parts together were like Disney movie level amazing. The music, the design, the action, it was awesome!
I particularly loved the character design for the villains. Those sequences actually reminded me of the old school pony action from the Midnight Castle days. Dark and devilish and kinda twisted. In other words EPIC. I also liked how they introduced Cadence and Shining Armor. The "Who the hoof is Princess Mi Amore Cadenza?!" made me because that is what I was totally thinking when I heard about the wedding. The back story of Twi's BBBFF kinda made me misty thinking of my own big Bro and was introduced really well.
I am also a big sucker for a tale in which the Knight in Shining Armor is the one in need of rescuing. This was a simply amazing finale. I hate to say it, but it blew the Grand Galloping Gala out of the water. They really, really, really delivered.
