I just watched 2 more episodes.
Episode 5 with the Griffin. What a bitch! I actually liked this episode because I didn't really care for Pinky before this episode. She was adorable in this one. The flying contraption was great. The pranks were cute too. Pretty good episode overall. Episode 6 was also pretty good. I liked how they made Trixie speak in the 3rd person to make her more douchey lol. Also those dumb male unicorns were pretty funny. Especially the taller one. Ursa Major at the end looked badass. |

So you're one episode away from Fluttershy's big episode. You're probably gonna like that one.
Btw, results so far for the countdown: 9 - "Hearth's Warming Eve" 8 - "Feeling Pinkie Keen" 7 - "Lesson Zero" 6 - "Party of One" 5 - "May the Best Pet Win!" 4 - "Dress for Success" 3 - "Best Night Ever" 2 - "Green Isn't Your Color" 1 - "Luna Eclipsed" I'll update as it goes along.

Trixie was a traveling performer. All she did was proclaim that her show was going to be great, and present herself as being larger-than-life. Then Rarity starts calling her a braggart, Spike's personally offended at the very idea that anyone can compare to Twilight (even though Twilight isn't offended), and Applejack and Rainbow Dash join in and start ruining her show with heckling (Rainbow Dash only did it to fit in, she's actually a lot like Trixie). So Trixie improvises and challenges them, winning all three challenges on top of having scored three free performances, and the crowd loves it. After the show, she's generally nice to some slightly-retarded children and stays in character for them while they're bothering her in her mobile home. She makes them act useful instead of just being a nuisance, and has them fetch her some food (which they're more than happy to do). Then Spike comes along and gets into an argument with her admirers, because he can't accept that they like something he doesn't, suddenly demanding proof of her larger-than-life claims, even though he has no real reason to doubt them (he doesn't even know what an Ursa Major is). Spike's the one who gave those two the idea to produce an Ursa Major, and they got blamed for it. Twilight even let Spike decide their punishment! When the Ursa arrives, Trixie immediately drops the act. The Ursa starts wrecking the town, her home/possessions/stage/costumes/props are all destroyed, and nobody's doing anything about it because Twilight's terrified that Rarity/Applejack/Rainbow Dash are going to start treating her like they treated Trixie, and nobody else is apparently capable of anything, so Trixie actually tries to fight an impossible monster by herself. And when it's clear that she can't do anything stop it, but her fans are still looking to her for help, she levels with them and tells the truth so that they can run away or whatever. Then Twilight saves the day. After Trixie regains her composure, she puts back on her show persona and (utterly ruined) runs away. Rainbow Dash makes like she's going to beat her up. For trying to entertain ponies. Twilight thinks that Trixie will learn her lesson eventually.

![]() I always did feel bad for Trixie. Just a traveling performer trying to put on an act, and what does she get for it? Humiliation and the destruction of her livelihood. She put on a heel persona against a couple of hecklers, and the audience as a whole was entertained by it.

It is one thing to put on a show of magical prowess for the sake of entertainment. It is another thing to do so while proclaiming yourself to be the greatest of all time and also an accomplished monster slayer in a world inhabited by the D&D Monster Manual where that sort of thing is a serious concern.

Maybe they considered licensing and trademark problems? |

Also Zecora is by herself because she's a different material. She glows in the dark, so she's being shown off specifically. |

Oh God, this. I hate it when people absolutely INSIST you'll love a specific episode of (insert show here) and it turns out to be undeserving of its hype. A perfectly acceptable, somewhat comedic episode of Fullmetal Alchemist was overhyped by the sub crowd when it was first airing on Adult Swim, and I was pissed when it wasn't as grand or epic as the fanboys made it out to be.
Being told what you're about to watch is THE BEST SHIT EVER and YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT can be detrimental to someone's enjoyment of a show. Please don't do this. I know that sounds like you can't say anything positive about the show at all, but that's not what I'm suggesting. Just don't fangush like it's better than the Second Coming. 'Cause it most likely won't be, and it leaves a terrible impression. Except Sonic Rainboom, that shit's all right lol |
