50 state landslide for a third party, presumably.

There's no 3rd parties, just BushOklahoma vs. Pony.

No. I gave it a chance like I was told. I didn't like it.

Probably the worst implication.

Anyways, there were certainly things that could have been better (the above, for one, and also it really should have been two or three parts. Again.) but I feel there is going to be a deluge of any-change-is-bad-change type hatred, instead of focusing on the legitimate problems with the episode.

Legitimate problems? It was honestly too packed, which killed any tension or drama, and had far too many songs (I liked maybe 2 of them, honestly). Twilight's "destiny" came suddenly, had no foreshadowing, and if anything goes against what the series was supposed to be in the first place (you can be a girl without being a pretty princess!) The episode was clearly directly commissioned by Hasbro to sell toys. Not to mention that it's basically a giant middle finger to everyone whose favorite character isn't Twilight. Season 3 was doing a good job at making it about six main characters, and then one of them gets pegged above the rest? Given that my favorite character is an earth pony, I couldn't help but resent that.

3/10, for Derpy/Vinyl/liquid pride/the "True True Friend" song against everything else. Congrats Merriwether, you are no longer the worst writer of the series.

I actually liked the episode except the ending. It was packed yes, but in that sense kind of reminded me of classic Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Lab episodes that were similar (since they were only 12 minutes long.) Obviously an attempt at a kind of Les Miserables' telling of the story through mostly songs.

I agree about the ending though. Would've been OK for a series finale since it started with Twilight Sparkle as the mane character, but I have no clue how they're going to do this in season 4. Maybe just ignore it and argue season 4 is a prequel to this episode.

The songs are a matter of taste (I personally liked all except Celestia's) but I agree, if they had kept everything but split it into two episodes it would have been much better.

Er, no offence, but have you been watching the series at all?

Is it, though? I thought the series was about friendship being the highest ideal (wording is not ideal) I think the episode did a pretty good job of reinforcing that.

Twilight Sparkle has always been portrayed as the "leader" of the group, and for good reason.

Never was (although that's taste again).
Merriwether: 1 bad episode (3|09), 3 average episodes (2|08, 2|11, 2|21), and 2 good episodes (2|19, 3|07)
Larson: 2 bad episodes (1|16, 2|10), 8 average episodes (1|10, 1|23, 2|04, 2|15, 2|20, 2|23, 3|13, 3|05), and 2 good episodes (2|01, 2|02)

And yes, I realise I'm taking all of this far too seriously.

Edit: Oh, and don't forget that this was supposedly the first part of a three-part episode. The implications are obvious.

I like Rucka Rucka Ali, but I don't know what to think of this. Is he calling Bronies pedos, or is he making fun of people who think Bronies are pedos? Or is he just a self-hating brony (He knows a lot.)

I love This guy's Disney Pony videos:

http://www.youtube.com/user/DagaYemar/videos

Does a good job with casting too.

The most popular vid is "This is Halloween", which is fantastic, and Pinkie Pie as Jack fits very well.

I also like chooosing Fluttershy as Quasimodo instead of Spike (who gets the role the most often).
