With One Bad Apple, one of the dumbest details which makes the morale just fall flat on its face is right after the scene where Applejack gives out the "go to an adult if you are being bullied, they'll be able to help" message is a scene where Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon bully the CMC...in full view of AJ...who does nothing.
some people tend to forget that spike canonically has abandonment issues. Twilight leaving him is his biggest fear as shown through that door in season 3, so of course he's going to want attention. A lot of Spike's episodes really do a disservice to his character which when you think about it, is actually kind of tragic. Growing up as a dragon in an all pony society probably isn't easy and feels really isolating. He only ever had his older sister who seemed to be more focused on her studies than him for the longest time..
i feel he needs more respect because he helped the ponies. i thought most of his episodes were good, but you kinda have a point. glad spike's on your pfp!
@@paulaboatright256 spike is my favorite character honestly. He really did hold G4 together. There hasn't been a gen where Spike isn't present up until G5 for a reason
@@kryzie i'm am so fricken glad you agree! yeah, i have not seen g5 and i don't plan to. G4 was honestly goated! i don't even think spike was in g5, but i could be wrong...😃😃🤔🤨😐👍👍👍 i like spike just because i can kinda relate to him, and he's just really funny.
I also found it depressing how Sparkle's Seven has Spike explicitely stating that he believes that Twilight never saw him as a brother. Luckily things got resolved by the end of the episode, but that's still a rather depressing thought to have about someone you essentially grew up with.
About the repeating the same lesson trope - i find it pretty realistic. I agree that it gets boring when it's the exact same characters in the exact same conflict, but it makes sense for characters to make the same mistakes even though they "learned their lesson". You can think you changed, but it doesn't really mean anything unless you actively work on yourself. It also makes sense for them not to see the correlation - they *think* they know better after correcting their behavior in the past, so they're not able to recognize they're actually making the same mistake, just in different circumstances.
The thing is, that was almost never done intentionally, just as a result of some writers not being able to come up with better ideas or straight up not having watched the show.
@@olserknam Oh, I'm sure most shows are guilty of that. The writers need a character to act a certain way to push the plot forward and never once stop to think "Would this character actually behave like this?" aka why I can't stand Rollins from SVU
The fact that you managed to match 207 memes to each episode title holy shi- A fascinating and hilarious 3 hours of my life. Definitely a video that I will re-watch more than once because of the excellent editing, humor, clear structure, and of course, so much invested effort!
I think the reason I personally really love Canterlot Boutique is that I myself am an artist and thus I 100% understand the song. She's an artist, struggling because the person she hired is making her job a lot harder. On top that, she has no room for creative freedom and thus gets depressed. The moment she allows herself to deviate from the norm her employee set up, she's the one to get in trouble, which I find 100% stupid. Rarity should have been an asshole in this episode because no artist, let alone a boss, should be bullied and dictated around by their employee.
I probably wouldn’t dislike the episode so much if Sandals didn’t get rewarded for treating Rarity like crap, I mainly found it boring since I’m not a big Rarity fan but I can see if people like it
@@TheHaremReviewer Makes sense! Honestly the episode should have ended with Rarity firing Sassy. But Rarity's song in this episode is one of my favorites of the entire series but as I said, its primarily that I can relate as a creator. "Oh to create would give elation, to feel once again some inspiration" is my favorite part because FAT MOOD.
Canterlot Boutique is an episode I really love too. Would definitely put it in my top 20. As an artist, the conflict of doing what I want vs. doing what other people want me to do is painfully relatable. The only thing I didn't care for was the ending, but I'll give it a pass because I wouldn't want the episode to have a realistic downer ending either.
@@caffeinatedpossumRarity would certainly have the right, but given all Sassy was told is to make the boutique a sucess, and given her reaction(or lack thereof)to the unsatisfied customer, it certainly feels harsh to just dismiss her entirely(perhaps Rarity told her the rules she herself follows in the process, but given she's worked in Canterlot fashion in at least one other boutique, that experience combined with sticking to the mundane probably had her feeling correct) A bit related, but Sassy's comment on being, "part of another failed boutique", does give her a bit more from the supposed hiring process of Canterlot(at least the fashion scene), potentially only being overlooked by Rarity, who just said they'll never have a boutique in Canterlot, so it at least gives something in overlooking things for the greater good or sticking to the high road present throughout the show
Actually, Sparkle's Seven was a train-wreck, and here's why. Luna was thrown under the bus by the writers for Spike's sake by making her grumpy over Celestia letting Shining Armor do the honor of reinforcing the castle's defenses. And why did they do that? Because Spike merely felt like that he wasn't a part of Twilight Sparkle's family. In reality, Luna would understand that it doesn't matter who's reinforcing the castle's defenses. The crux of the problem with Spike - and episodes featuring him - is that you must drag everyone else down if you want him to shine at all. So, Spike's "character development" was a mistake. Of course, there were a lot of other mistakes in the show, as well, which could've been done better. The show wasn't entirely bad - it's just not perfect. Most importantly, the biggest mistake was that humans - particularly Megan, Danny, and Molly - and mythologicl human-like species didn't return in the later incarnations of My Little Pony. Speaking of mythological human-like species, Tirek didn't resemble and actual centaur at all. Why did they remove the human parts on every mythological human-like species and replace them with non-human parts? Not only is that idea weird, but it's also silly and pointless. And what do you think Lauren Faust or other people behind the show - such as Jayson Thiessen - would answer to that question? No offense, but they'll obviously understand that they f*cked up. Anyway, you have two options: You can have Spike being a butt-monkey - just like he was from the beginning - or have him removed. I'm not a Spike-hater, but it's just to make sure that he's not damaging the show and the rest of the franchise.
some of the "learning to not be an asshole" is true for some, but others do have a more complicated lesson. In the episode where fluttershy was being a dick bc iron wills stuff, i learned (as a young kid) to be stern when needed but not a jerk. You can be stern and confident without being a mean person, but for young young kids i doubt they would get that LOL
Some would argue that it began far earlier. largely season 5 but some would even say it started with “keep calm and flutter on”. With the main point being that his character changed to just be that of a petulant and self centered man-child
Think about it this way: 1. His plan worked 2. It's arguable that this is only his second real fuck up not his third 3. It was the first time he promised to "make up for something" and meant it.
I definitely agree with your worst Episode Pic. It is my hate Episode. The Thing that botheres me the most about the Episode is that Pikie Pie put the Yovidophone over her Enviroment and even her Friends as she was depressed. It seems they were all nothing to her.
Compared to the worst episodes, the Arabic and Russian dubs were even worse than these worst episodes. The Arabic dubs are very bad. And the Russian dubs are even worse, because the voice actors were from the Soviet Union.
52:38 tank hibernating is a metaphor for dying. You dont have to have him literally die to have it show grief. I think its autistic to be like "oh he didnt die therefore its not a moral about grief". And I'm autistic too but I can see that its a metaphor.
But thats the exact problem with the episode, its a metaphor which shouldnt be used for something like death. Plus the series already handled the concept way better in the Perfect Pear
Inspiration manifestation has a horrible lesson. Spike was being manipulated and the episode tried to frame it like it was his fault for letting Rarity become "something awful" when in reality nobody in this episode is to blame except for that book. They tried to pass it off like the moral is to be "honest with your friends" and for that circumstance it really doesn't work.
The way I saw it. It was kinda like peer pressure, or letting someone get away with something you know is wrong because you look up to them and like them and don't want them to be mad at you or think less of you. It wasn't Spike's fault at all, he was just too scared he wouldn't get Rarity's approval if he called her out, or the book really since that was what was making her go crazy.
The reason why the Buffalo weren’t in later episodes is because the episode received a lot of backlash because in was an inaccurate retailing of history. It also depicts the Buffalo as uncivilized and aggressive which are harmful stereotypes.
Pinkie causing the confluct defintely felt bad, but uncivilized and aggressive doesn't feel right given their hospitality to Rainbow and Pinkie as well as the deal between Appleloosa and them even happening in the first place(both before and after the episode)
2:13:25 - 2:13:44 It's nice to see someone else agree that the way this show handled Cozy Glow was hilariously savage. Sorry Cozy Glow, I guess the writers didn't like you as much as Discord and Starlight Glimmer.
29:43 this may seem like a fault on the creators for making Fluttershy be mean to ponies who weren't mean to her but this makes the episode more realistic because this typa shit happens too often irl unfortunately
Wow. Just wow. I’ve never been so entertained by a 3+ hour video. This deserves way more veiws. I can’t imagine the amount of work that was put into this video. Every minute is so heavily edited it’s mind boggling. I rarely give long videos a second watch letalone a 3+ hour one, but this one will be getting it! FIM is in my top 3 cartoons of all time and it was so nice to watch a review of every episode and have quite a few good gut laughs along the way. Keep up the great work 🤘
I was actually very surprised finding myself enjoying the video from the beginning to the end despite the length ! It’s very well written, your comments make sense and are very funny, didn’t realize how much time passed while watching it, it felt like it was 30 minutes long and not 3 hours long. Also didn’t realize certain things about certain episodes before you mention it, I now have new perspectives about the series. You did a great job ranking all of the episodes of my favorite show. Edit : I actually watched it two times in two days fr-
My thoughts on early seasons vs later seasons is that seasons 1-4 was more consistently good than the later seasons, but the highs of the later seasons are higher than the early seasons. Putting your hoof down was funny. Thought admittedly Iron Will carries most of the episode Rarity is my favourite of the mane 6. I love how overly dramatic she is sometimes. To answer the discord and fluttershy question. Yes they are. The things in her hair represent marriage, and there was a kiss in the original script. That was confirmed in an interview on Equestria Daily
It's good to see that stuff is still being made for FiM years after it's over, it's certainly had an impact that's still resonating with many people. Maybe there'll be a renaissance at some point?
Rest assured, this fandom is still alive, and new bronies are always showing up. A few months ago, I knew nothing of this wonderful show and its fandom. MLP is far from dead.
I didn't see your channel name so when you said that this show has two harems, that gave me whiplash and you're right. It does have two harems wtf lmao??? Anyways, this was an amazing video. You deserve all of the drinks of the world after working on this video.
@3:11- OMG Thank you! I wanted to make my own list on "Episodes I Dislike that Everyone Loves" and vice versa and couldn't find a 'ranking list', so this will help me out tremendously!
You put in so much effort in these videos! You even read every comment, and you put in CLIPS OF THE EPISODES WHILE TALKING ABOUT THEM! You are amazing! Keep going!
Holy shit that voice bit of Carl from Jimmy Nuetron screaming “STOP IT! CANT YOU SEE YOUR CONSTANT FIGHTING IS TEARING US ALL *APAAAAARRT!!!* “ That REALLY got me for some reason. Also it’s so damn perfect for the conflicts of this show overall and I love that.
IMO the message of Newbie Dash is that hazing is okay, meanwhile I'm pretty sure hazing is actually illegal But it's cool seeing RD finally achieving her life goal
You did have some pretty hot takes here when it comes to the episodes you loved, but other than that, I mostly agree with your list. I've been ranking MLP episodes regularly for several years now, though I thankfully haven't had to create an entire video about it yet.
I love this video! Honestly I used to brush off a lot of the bad episodes/writing thinking I was taking them too seriously for a show for kids, but even as a kid the episodes where the characters are assholes/stupid/out of character really irked me!

It's a decent video overall but man how are you going to get mad that plot devices exist (Everyone in Ponyville is mean in one episode because it's meant to highlight that if you were to break down every day of fluttershy's life she /does/ experience this daily, because people are mean a lot of the time and ponies are just people. That just hasn't been the focus until this episode) and at characters acting improper in an episode where they're learning a lesson about it (Fluttershy is overly aggressive because that's how she's coping with everyone being mean, every character in the episode knows that this is bad, she learns her lesson).
@@TheHaremReviewer You want my hot take? I went and wrote a fairly chunky statement I could post if you want a more in-depth opinion. The tl;dr version however is that it goes against the message of the show seeing how these three were shown to have potential for reformation and that their punishment was overkill and messed up. Especially considering one of them is a literal powerless kid.
@@TheHaremReviewer Alright. I respect what others think, but since you asked. I have several reasons why it was bad. I see it as it going against the message of the show. They can redeem many villains including the spirit of chaos himself, but a single child was never offered a chance at redemption? Considering how Discord had many chances given it's kinda ridiculous to think about. Not to mention the three of them being shown to have potential for redemption as shown at the end of Frenemies. They made an entire episode having these three as the protagonists and having learned a lesson in teamwork and friendship in a way only for all that to be thrown off to the side. You can't just say they're irredeemable villains and then just give them a scene where they stop and question their motives and think whether or not they're doing the right thing. Then of course there's the "public execution" scene. The trio are already defeated and powerless thanks to the Elements of Harmony. The Elements didn't outright obliterate them like they did with Sombra or turn them to stone like they did with Discord. Perhaps the Elements way of saying the villainous trio are not a complete lost cause. Instead we have the princesses and Discord despite him being the one pulling the strings and having used the three as pawns in his scheme to help boost Twilight's confidence being the ones to carry out the whole stoning spell. The writers were so caught up with wrapping things up that they didn't stop to think the dark implications of having the supposed heroes stone the villains despite them already being powerless. Celestia and Luna come off as vengeful and vindictive which is not something supposed heroes should be. Tirek and Cozy already looked to be scared and weak. Chrysalis looked ready to fight sure, but she could have easily just been restrained. Not to mention the stoning punishment is total overkill to use on a filly who doesn't even have any powers to begin with. The Tartarus thing was already messed up, but the stoning is beyond messed up. Nobody bothered to look into this kid's backstory whatsoever? What was wrong with just sending the three of them to Tartarus? Tirek and Cozy were doing just fine there until that idiot Discord broke them out. Cozy doesn't need prison though. She needed mental help which is something they couldn't provide to her for whatever reason. And that's not even going into the whole Discord being "Grogar the whole time" plot twist. How Discord himself used the three of them in his scheme, with Cozy and Tirek just minding their business in Tartarus while Chrysalis just off losing her mind in the woods. Yet Discord faces no punishment for his actions. In fact he even gets to choose the punishment for the three of them. There's being an antihero, and then there's just being a deceitful villain even with his good intentions. But yeah that's my crazy rambling. Call me obsessed, but man even four years later and that ending still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
How anyone can think that princess spike is almost as bad or even worse then Yakity Sax is just absurd to me. Yeah I don’t think the episode is amazing but the hate it gets is just ridiculous
instead of taking a sip of beer for every time someone learned not to be an asshole, i took a hit off my cart and i was high as shit by the end of the video 💀
For some reason, they NEED to do Dash dirty every freaking damn time. And it all started with Mare Do Well. When I was rewatching the series everything was fine up until this episode where someone in the writing team probably was like "Oh guys, I think we don't have enough conflicts with Rainbow Dash!! Let's show everyone that she's an arrogant asshole! Yes she never acted like that before but who cares". The script is shitty for the ep honestly. RD became a hero in ponyvile for saving LIVES for god's sake. And when she gained a fanbase we were never shown that she ignored her hero duties. She was still helping everypony and taking rightful credit for that. But her friends? From the viewer's perspective, it looked like "Omg she's so full of herself for saving someone let's put her into place so that she'll shut up and do her "work" quietly". Awful, just awful. It would be okay if they had a normal motivation. Like if RD almost couldn't make it in time because she was busy with the fanbase or smth. But that never happened. We were never shown that. All we saw was an episode where friends gaslighted RD for 20 minutes into thinking "you're nothing special" ugh
This was such an entertaining video that when I tried having it in the background while doing something else, I just ended up getting glued to what you were saying! I agree with most of the ranking too, and even on points I didn't quite agree with, I ended up respecting your opinion anyway!
Technically 3 harems if we count Flash Sentry They all get shipped with every female that comes in contact with them. Its nice to see someone praise season 9 for once as oppposed to saying its the worst thing ever
Love my wife Derpy getting such appreciation Also as a side note for why everyone adores the last problem, it’s because it makes the send-off address the viewers (bronies) who had mostly all been following the show since 2010, and all of the special touches and every single element of that episode, come perfectly together for the best sendoff episode you could ever hope for, and also that song is such a beautiful last note, and a tearjerker to dedicated fans who stuck by and even new fans that just binged it can get something really special and amazing out of it( From showing that Lyra and Bonbon were married, showing Derpy on screen because you can never get enough of that, showing a new mane 6, and making a couple head cannons like appledash and fluttercord come true, it just adds the right amount of magic to the last episode of a great series) Side side note: Simple ways being a 10/10 is a war crime i extremely dislike that episode
@@TheHaremReviewer I dislike rarity and applejack episodes, rarity is really unbearable in all of them, Applejack’s response to the way rarity acts in the episode is funny and that sexy applejack eating an apple moment was too, but also that part with spike was kind of a negative to that, and even outside of the episode, I don’t like how both simple ways and dragon dropped are two opposite sides of the same coin and neither of them feel like they do a good job
@retardposting that is true, it is a hot or cold dynamic (though some not to the fault of the characters and more Kim Beyer Johnson as she made the worst episode of season 9, non complete-clause) as there is really only one other applejack and rainbow dash standalone episode, and its fall weather friends, which is really solid. But I just think that it is implied in the last problem that appledash is real anyways, I always preferred Flutterdash however.
Yes let's appreciate him forcing his fetishes down our throats and continuesly putting loud unnecessary memes in the video, cussing like there's no tomorrow, and the amount of P- materials
In What about Discord, I just couldn't stand the fact that Discord said he didn't intentionally want to make Twilight feeling jealous that she didn't hang out with her friends, but instead he just wanted to make her feel left out
2:35:33 About the ships at the end, the creators internationally made it vague because they stated that they wanted ships like FlutterCord and AppleDash to be left up for interpretation to the veiwer which I think is really smart and a nice way to make everyone happy, regardless of whether the view ships a specific couple or sinply views them as a platonic relationship. I actually do really like this episode and I kinda wish we got to see more of this future Equestria
Many bold opinions I haven't heard before. I don't know if I agree with you on everything, but I respect the balls to release a three hour MLP video this long after the show's end.
13:11 why do people say this episode was bad? i love this episode!!! i may be a bit of a psycho for liking to torment my favorite characters either in reading fanfics or writing them myself, but that's the reason why i love this episode. i love it when very tough and strong characters like Rainbow Dash get scared or broken down to the point where they're just the opposite of what their personality says about them. they brought out that soft side to Dash, and that's what i love about this episode.

@@TheHaremReviewer Her being an orphan was established already, for the whole series except the episode that they came back, which was useless, because it was only to tie up loose ends for the last season. It had no use. Now all the orphans watching, have one less cartoon character to relate to.
i love the babs seed episode so much its a good lesson imo it taught me a lot when i was little and getting bullied, i think it teaches that bullies have a lot of troubles at home and that yes u shouldnt feel pity for them but u should understand how their attitude manifested. it also shows how the cmc were LITERALLY becoming just like babs! its the same route babs was going down and it connects so well together. as a kid it showed me that i cant become like my bullies. i dont think the way the cmc handled it was right at all, as two wrongs dont make a right. it teaches kids that they should tell an adult when they are getting bullied, even if it makes them a "snitch", because its 1. better than doing nothing and letting it continue to happen and 2. is better than becoming a bully urself.
Great editing and you are hilarious my friend! I thoroughly enjoyed this video. And I agree with most of your rankings, most notably: Simple Ways being the peak of MLP's comedy, Twilight's Kingdom being the best episode, and that the early seasons (1 and 2) still hold up after all these years. Some of my own overall thoughts about the show: - Seasons 1,2 and even 3 hold a special place in my heart, there's just something uniquely wholesome and down to earth about those seasons that make me still enjoy them after all these years, the nostalgia factor definitely has an effect when I rewatch these seasons. - Seasons 4 and 5 are definitely the show's peak in terms of episode quality and many have left huge impressions on fans that solidified MLP as one of their favorite shows of all time. - Season 6 in my humble opinion is the most underrated season, it's overall solid with some of the funniest episodes in the show to date, with an epic finale to boot. It felt a little bit like season 1 with Starlight acting as a mini Twilight and we got to experience some light hearted fun normal slice of life episodes once again, it felt like a desperately needed break from all the craziness of the prior seasons, but yeah I agree it's held down by some stinkers lol. - Seasons 7, 8 are both alright, it had some extremally strong contenders for GOATED episodes like "A Royal Problem, Perfect Pear" as well as some of my personal favorites like "Rock Solid Friendship, Horse Play, The Hearth’s Warming Club, and Sound of Silence" but overall they had a severe lack of standout episodes - In Season 9, the writers went all out trying to deliver a satisfying ending to the show and for the most part, they did that. The season still had weak episodes here and there, but with some great episodes and a strong premier and finale, the final season ended up being pretty solid. My rankings for all 9 seasons, tier list form: S - 5 2 4 A - 6 1 B - 3 9 7 C - 8 D -
I can tolerate the excessive profanity in the rest of the video, and I understand if you don't like her writing, but the way you talk about Merriwether Williams is downright mean-spirited. There are ways to assert yourself without being unpleasant about it.
13:09 I remember seeing a clip from 28 pranks later when I was younger and I got really scared, now when I watch it I remember me first watching that clip and getting amused at how scared I was and I think thaf made the episode seem funnyer to me than it actually is
I personally think "putting your hoof down" was a decent episode because of how painful it was. It show how both passive and aggressive communication is bad and clearly frames fluttershy being aggressive as a bad thing, and it still felt like fluttershy because of the scene where she locks herself in her home saying shes a monster that part made it clear fluttershy wasn't thinking straight or clearly and when she realised her dreadful behaviour she felt guilty, and the conclusion was well executed with her properly asserting herself and refusing the pay iron will. I will say rairities advice was shit especially how they were implying that the pony raitity was manipulating was ulgy or pathetic, although i respect that they stayed true to rarities character as she is a known manipulater particularly to guys. Id say if your soley looking at the episode based on teaching the moral and about communication its good id rate it 6/10 it was perfect but it did a decent job. Although this is all my opinion, sorry i got carried away i guess despite being a hard to watch episode i do really like it and have good memories of it
Kind of similar here, too, though more on feeling the innocent being a target of said outbursts is done on purpose, even if wouldn't defend against not liking it(especially since said emotions led to a similar outburst at the Gala, a similarly cherished connection as friends being strained there) And a bit less upset at Angel and more believability with Fluttershy there given a similar thing occurs with zoo animals and their food
I know for me, I hated dragon quest because it’s one of the main things where I picked up on “boys do this, girls do that” bs. It complicated my own journey because now I’m in the limbo of I do some masculine things and some feminine things but don’t want to be seen as…
My favorite episode out of them all was Slice of Life. I absolutely love seeing the background characters given more developed personality and, while it is fan service, it works. I love seeing the LyraBon dynamic and Derpy's voice in the episode fits her character. I also can't stand but fall in love with the duet between Vinyl and Octavia. It has great use of time management between the overlapping storylines. The casual argument between Celestia and Luna is great to see and I really like the sibling dynamic. Dr. Whooves is a fun character to see, and the bowling sequence with the Big Lebowski is a fun choice. It was great to bring back Steven Magnet, and the overall wedding storyline is fun. Of course, Derpy is at her best in this episode, and the fact that she was the one who set the plot into motion is fun. All in all, I love the episode and it's at the top of my list. If you read this entire message, I congratulate you for reading my insane ramblings. Keep up the good work and I love your videos! Edit: I say fun way too much in the message. Sorry 😐.
3:03:53 The reason Season 3 only had 13 episodes is because it was originally supposed to be the final season of the show, as they needed to wait until the show got renewed for more seasons as the show had reached its episode limit for that time period
Another interesting detail about the episode Granny's Gone Wild, is that if you look in the background for the ponies waiting in line, you can see a Rick and Morty Pony so thats pretty interesting
This was a great video, I had no idea I needed one like this Also I genuinely thought this was gonna be a joke video bc it was posted on April fools lmao
The appeal of Hearth’s warming eve is the worldbuilding aspect of it, if you don’t care about that crap then I can see why you’d be bored to death by it. It’s like how some people love history class in school while many just fall asleep during them.
⚠️WARNING ABOUT THIS VIDEO⚠️ AT 1:17:34 there is a random spider jump scare thing on the screen I don’t know why and I think it’s stupid people without Arachnophobia have no idea what it’s like for us who do its not funny or silly it’s fucking terrifying and an annoying fear to have tbh it’s very frustrating idk if there is any more In the video cause I am not watching the rest
I’m not a huge surf and/or turf fan, but I do think it’s a really unique and interesting way to portray different difficult decisions kids have to go through such as divorce. Like the choice may seem obvious to us but it’s a very real struggle kids feel like pressure to choose where to go or figuring out where they belong and yeah. I think it was cool to see in a way that’s unique to my little pony
Hey so sorry, I hate to be this person, but if possible could you try to be more careful with the r-word? It makes me uncomfortable and sad knowing that I have friends who've had it used against them. Aside from that I'm really enjoying the video and I appreciate all the effort you put in, I just wanted to point it out in case you weren't very familiar with it being considered harmful. Otherwise keep up the good work!
I agree with you about a lot of the episode rankings, but as for the overall seasons, I only ever rewatch seasons 4-9, Twilight is much better after she gets wings and the first 3 seasons are just okay but definitely meant for kids instead of trying more to appeal to the all-ages fanbase the series ended up having. Also I like some episodes featuring Discord such as To Where and Back Again and of course all the epic multi-parters he was in (but not so much Return of Harmony) but I wish he stayed a rock or at least lost his powers forever in the grand finale and was forced to live a mundane life without being an omnipotent jerkface. He could still be happy and married to Fluttershy but he would just have to be a regular mortal like everyone else. Also Babs Seed was bad in a typical ass hole kid way but she didn't deserve to be thrown off a cliff and die so I'm glad the CMC learned to handle their problems without using deadly force.
One thing that always confuses me about hearts and hooves day, ingredients for the love poison can only be realistically acquired by Pegasi. Cloud, rainbow and a pegasus feather. All things abundant in Cloudsdale
My thoughts differ from yours with a good amount of episodes, so I guess I’ll just make a case for one I really don’t get. One bad apple. The point of how the cmcs actions were wrong was that they had began to bully her out of a genuine desire to hurt her. While Babs’ action were not right either she acted that way out of a desire to protect herself. The cmc reacting the way that they did would just be entrenching babs’ defense strategy and continuing the cycle of antagonism. Hate can only destroy. Admittedly the writers screwed up with not having applejack explain to babs’ that her actions were not justifiable either, and the point you made about children needing to be able to resolve problems themselves is sensible, but how exactly could they have done that? Children need guiding figures in order for them to even have a frame of reference for what’s the right course of action in the first place. And need to learn from them in order to learn How to process information in the first place. After which they will then have the tools necessary in order to problem solve independently. But the cmc couldn’t do that if they didn’t already have that knowledge beforehand, now could they? How exactly were the cmc supposed to realistically and believably resolve the issue of babs’ inexplicable change in behavior without going to an adult and asking them for help in order to understand what’s going on and have them assist in remedying the issue?
definitely one of the videos of all time
True
absolutely agreed
In my preference, the 7-9 seasons felt out of character. It just felt like the show had been rewritten.
With One Bad Apple, one of the dumbest details which makes the morale just fall flat on its face is right after the scene where Applejack gives out the "go to an adult if you are being bullied, they'll be able to help" message is a scene where Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon bully the CMC...in full view of AJ...who does nothing.
lmao
LOL
She probably would have if Babs didn't stand up for them.
Babs also said she would tell their mothers which still connects to the moral.
@@marmik961
Babs left so she never got to tell their mothers jack squat.
some people tend to forget that spike canonically has abandonment issues. Twilight leaving him is his biggest fear as shown through that door in season 3, so of course he's going to want attention. A lot of Spike's episodes really do a disservice to his character which when you think about it, is actually kind of tragic.
Growing up as a dragon in an all pony society probably isn't easy and feels really isolating.
He only ever had his older sister who seemed to be more focused on her studies than him for the longest time..
i feel he needs more respect because he helped the ponies. i thought most of his episodes were good, but you kinda have a point. glad spike's on your pfp!
@@paulaboatright256 spike is my favorite character honestly. He really did hold G4 together. There hasn't been a gen where Spike isn't present up until G5 for a reason
@@kryzie i'm am so fricken glad you agree! yeah, i have not seen g5 and i don't plan to. G4 was honestly goated! i don't even think spike was in g5, but i could be wrong...😃😃🤔🤨😐👍👍👍 i like spike just because i can kinda relate to him, and he's just really funny.
@@paulaboatright256 i actually love G5. Misty is my second favorite character in the entire pony franchise
I also found it depressing how Sparkle's Seven has Spike explicitely stating that he believes that Twilight never saw him as a brother. Luckily things got resolved by the end of the episode, but that's still a rather depressing thought to have about someone you essentially grew up with.
About the repeating the same lesson trope - i find it pretty realistic. I agree that it gets boring when it's the exact same characters in the exact same conflict, but it makes sense for characters to make the same mistakes even though they "learned their lesson". You can think you changed, but it doesn't really mean anything unless you actively work on yourself. It also makes sense for them not to see the correlation - they *think* they know better after correcting their behavior in the past, so they're not able to recognize they're actually making the same mistake, just in different circumstances.
I'm glad someone says it.
The thing is, that was almost never done intentionally, just as a result of some writers not being able to come up with better ideas or straight up not having watched the show.
@@olserknam Oh, I'm sure most shows are guilty of that. The writers need a character to act a certain way to push the plot forward and never once stop to think "Would this character actually behave like this?" aka why I can't stand Rollins from SVU
They actually mention that in Fame and Misfortune
The fact that you managed to match 207 memes to each episode title holy shi-
A fascinating and hilarious 3 hours of my life.
Definitely a video that I will re-watch more than once because of the excellent editing, humor, clear structure, and of course, so much invested effort!
I think the reason I personally really love Canterlot Boutique is that I myself am an artist and thus I 100% understand the song. She's an artist, struggling because the person she hired is making her job a lot harder. On top that, she has no room for creative freedom and thus gets depressed. The moment she allows herself to deviate from the norm her employee set up, she's the one to get in trouble, which I find 100% stupid. Rarity should have been an asshole in this episode because no artist, let alone a boss, should be bullied and dictated around by their employee.
I probably wouldn’t dislike the episode so much if Sandals didn’t get rewarded for treating Rarity like crap, I mainly found it boring since I’m not a big Rarity fan but I can see if people like it
@@TheHaremReviewer Makes sense! Honestly the episode should have ended with Rarity firing Sassy. But Rarity's song in this episode is one of my favorites of the entire series but as I said, its primarily that I can relate as a creator.
"Oh to create would give elation,
to feel once again some inspiration" is my favorite part because FAT MOOD.
@@caffeinatedpossumI feel that
Canterlot Boutique is an episode I really love too. Would definitely put it in my top 20. As an artist, the conflict of doing what I want vs. doing what other people want me to do is painfully relatable. The only thing I didn't care for was the ending, but I'll give it a pass because I wouldn't want the episode to have a realistic downer ending either.
@@caffeinatedpossumRarity would certainly have the right, but given all Sassy was told is to make the boutique a sucess, and given her reaction(or lack thereof)to the unsatisfied customer, it certainly feels harsh to just dismiss her entirely(perhaps Rarity told her the rules she herself follows in the process, but given she's worked in Canterlot fashion in at least one other boutique, that experience combined with sticking to the mundane probably had her feeling correct)
A bit related, but Sassy's comment on being, "part of another failed boutique", does give her a bit more from the supposed hiring process of Canterlot(at least the fashion scene), potentially only being overlooked by Rarity, who just said they'll never have a boutique in Canterlot, so it at least gives something in overlooking things for the greater good or sticking to the high road present throughout the show
Spike revealing that he was scheming with Luna the entire time was a batshit ending twist and I absolutely loved it. W episode!
Agreed
Actually, Sparkle's Seven was a train-wreck, and here's why.
Luna was thrown under the bus by the writers for Spike's sake by making her grumpy over Celestia letting Shining Armor do the honor of reinforcing the castle's defenses. And why did they do that? Because Spike merely felt like that he wasn't a part of Twilight Sparkle's family. In reality, Luna would understand that it doesn't matter who's reinforcing the castle's defenses.
The crux of the problem with Spike - and episodes featuring him - is that you must drag everyone else down if you want him to shine at all. So, Spike's "character development" was a mistake. Of course, there were a lot of other mistakes in the show, as well, which could've been done better. The show wasn't entirely bad - it's just not perfect. Most importantly, the biggest mistake was that humans - particularly Megan, Danny, and Molly - and mythologicl human-like species didn't return in the later incarnations of My Little Pony.
Speaking of mythological human-like species, Tirek didn't resemble and actual centaur at all. Why did they remove the human parts on every mythological human-like species and replace them with non-human parts? Not only is that idea weird, but it's also silly and pointless. And what do you think Lauren Faust or other people behind the show - such as Jayson Thiessen - would answer to that question? No offense, but they'll obviously understand that they f*cked up.
Anyway, you have two options: You can have Spike being a butt-monkey - just like he was from the beginning - or have him removed. I'm not a Spike-hater, but it's just to make sure that he's not damaging the show and the rest of the franchise.
I thought this would be a massive April fool’s joke, but damn, you really did supply us with the goat content this time around.
some of the "learning to not be an asshole" is true for some, but others do have a more complicated lesson. In the episode where fluttershy was being a dick bc iron wills stuff, i learned (as a young kid) to be stern when needed but not a jerk. You can be stern and confident without being a mean person, but for young young kids i doubt they would get that LOL
It kind of relates to repitition being important to the learning process in anything, but not quite good for the viewer
I really hate how the writers assassinated Discord's character in Season 8 and 9...
YEAH, he was so enjoyable before😭😭
My favorite discord is the season 4 finale one. He’s so empathetic and more alive if that makes any sense.
Some would argue that it began far earlier. largely season 5 but some would even say it started with “keep calm and flutter on”. With the main point being that his character changed to just be that of a petulant and self centered man-child
Think about it this way:
1. His plan worked
2. It's arguable that this is only his second real fuck up not his third
3. It was the first time he promised to "make up for something" and meant it.
How is that exactly?
Bro woke up one day and decided to make a 3+ hour long video of ranking every MLP FIM episode, and a funny one at that lol.
Simply beautiful.
I definitely agree with your worst Episode Pic. It is my hate Episode. The Thing that botheres me the most about the Episode is that Pikie Pie put the Yovidophone over her Enviroment and even her Friends as she was depressed. It seems they were all nothing to her.
Compared to the worst episodes, the Arabic and Russian dubs were even worse than these worst episodes. The Arabic dubs are very bad. And the Russian dubs are even worse, because the voice actors were from the Soviet Union.
I’ve needed a video like this for so long, I’m surprised nobody has done an in depth ranking video like this before for the series
52:38 tank hibernating is a metaphor for dying. You dont have to have him literally die to have it show grief. I think its autistic to be like "oh he didnt die therefore its not a moral about grief". And I'm autistic too but I can see that its a metaphor.
But thats the exact problem with the episode, its a metaphor which shouldnt be used for something like death. Plus the series already handled the concept way better in the Perfect Pear
Im autistic and still confused
I agree with the comment but what the flip does autism has to do with all of this
I love the editing, and it's insane someone actually did this, i hope this video blows up
Inspiration manifestation has a horrible lesson. Spike was being manipulated and the episode tried to frame it like it was his fault for letting Rarity become "something awful" when in reality nobody in this episode is to blame except for that book. They tried to pass it off like the moral is to be "honest with your friends" and for that circumstance it really doesn't work.
The way I saw it. It was kinda like peer pressure, or letting someone get away with something you know is wrong because you look up to them and like them and don't want them to be mad at you or think less of you. It wasn't Spike's fault at all, he was just too scared he wouldn't get Rarity's approval if he called her out, or the book really since that was what was making her go crazy.
@@BratzRockAngels 👍
The reason why the Buffalo weren’t in later episodes is because the episode received a lot of backlash because in was an inaccurate retailing of history. It also depicts the Buffalo as uncivilized and aggressive which are harmful stereotypes.
exactly. don’t know why people make theories about it when it’s pretty obvious
@@oysterboy5166 but it is fictional species... huh...
ameruca really do ve the center of the world right?
Pinkie causing the confluct defintely felt bad, but uncivilized and aggressive doesn't feel right given their hospitality to Rainbow and Pinkie as well as the deal between Appleloosa and them even happening in the first place(both before and after the episode)
2:13:25 - 2:13:44 It's nice to see someone else agree that the way this show handled Cozy Glow was hilariously savage.
Sorry Cozy Glow, I guess the writers didn't like you as much as Discord and Starlight Glimmer.
They really didn't cause they turned a child into stone 🤣
@@Mirthful_PandaCould've just stopped the issue by making her a depowered Grogar
29:43 this may seem like a fault on the creators for making Fluttershy be mean to ponies who weren't mean to her but this makes the episode more realistic because this typa shit happens too often irl unfortunately
Wow. Just wow. I’ve never been so entertained by a 3+ hour video. This deserves way more veiws. I can’t imagine the amount of work that was put into this video. Every minute is so heavily edited it’s mind boggling. I rarely give long videos a second watch letalone a 3+ hour one, but this one will be getting it! FIM is in my top 3 cartoons of all time and it was so nice to watch a review of every episode and have quite a few good gut laughs along the way. Keep up the great work 🤘
I think this the longest video based on my little pony friendship is magic. I’ve ever seen on this platform. Awesome job on the video!
I was actually very surprised finding myself enjoying the video from the beginning to the end despite the length ! It’s very well written, your comments make sense and are very funny, didn’t realize how much time passed while watching it, it felt like it was 30 minutes long and not 3 hours long. Also didn’t realize certain things about certain episodes before you mention it, I now have new perspectives about the series. You did a great job ranking all of the episodes of my favorite show.
Edit : I actually watched it two times in two days fr-
Dude, your editing is so good! It’s very concise and I love all the clever sound clips for every episode. You deserve more subs fr
I thought I might try taking a shot for every time I heard the word “asshole” but in the end I decided I’d rather keep my liver
My thoughts on early seasons vs later seasons is that seasons 1-4 was more consistently good than the later seasons, but the highs of the later seasons are higher than the early seasons.
Putting your hoof down was funny. Thought admittedly Iron Will carries most of the episode
Rarity is my favourite of the mane 6. I love how overly dramatic she is sometimes.
To answer the discord and fluttershy question. Yes they are. The things in her hair represent marriage, and there was a kiss in the original script. That was confirmed in an interview on Equestria Daily
Does Season 4 count as a later season ?
It's good to see that stuff is still being made for FiM years after it's over, it's certainly had an impact that's still resonating with many people.
Maybe there'll be a renaissance at some point?
A resurgence is in the wings right now! People just need to keep at it!
Rest assured, this fandom is still alive, and new bronies are always showing up. A few months ago, I knew nothing of this wonderful show and its fandom. MLP is far from dead.
Sad that G5 was such a dissapointment in comparison to G4.

Holy shit that voice bit of Carl from Jimmy Nuetron screaming
“STOP IT! CANT YOU SEE YOUR CONSTANT FIGHTING IS TEARING US ALL *APAAAAARRT!!!* “
That REALLY got me for some reason. Also it’s so damn perfect for the conflicts of this show overall and I love that.
Oh Jimmy Neutron. One of my favorite shows growing up.
IMO the message of Newbie Dash is that hazing is okay, meanwhile I'm pretty sure hazing is actually illegal
But it's cool seeing RD finally achieving her life goal
Yeah, wonderbolts making fun of her and making her remember her child trauma is Okay ? Sure
@@hardcorefurinafan is not like the wonderbolts knew about her trauma
Guess it was supposed to be closer to the backhanded compliments seen with other friend groups in media
You did have some pretty hot takes here when it comes to the episodes you loved, but other than that, I mostly agree with your list. I've been ranking MLP episodes regularly for several years now, though I thankfully haven't had to create an entire video about it yet.
I love this video! Honestly I used to brush off a lot of the bad episodes/writing thinking I was taking them too seriously for a show for kids, but even as a kid the episodes where the characters are assholes/stupid/out of character really irked me!

I gotta apprechieve that almost every episode that features Trixie is atleast 8/10, i may be late but i like your list.
@BterlonSa thanks! Do you want to make one too? I promise I'll read it!
Take a sip every time he says 'asshole'
Or Dashole
It's a decent video overall but man how are you going to get mad that plot devices exist (Everyone in Ponyville is mean in one episode because it's meant to highlight that if you were to break down every day of fluttershy's life she /does/ experience this daily, because people are mean a lot of the time and ponies are just people. That just hasn't been the focus until this episode) and at characters acting improper in an episode where they're learning a lesson about it (Fluttershy is overly aggressive because that's how she's coping with everyone being mean, every character in the episode knows that this is bad, she learns her lesson).
i haven't even started watching this video but that intro with bowser with the jar caught me so off guard i choked on my food. instant sub
2:55:51 No. Damming the three villains by turning them to stone was the most atrocious part of the finale and im tired of pretending that it isn't.
Why is it bad?
@@TheHaremReviewer You want my hot take? I went and wrote a fairly chunky statement I could post if you want a more in-depth opinion.
The tl;dr version however is that it goes against the message of the show seeing how these three were shown to have potential for reformation and that their punishment was overkill and messed up. Especially considering one of them is a literal powerless kid.
@@ZoruaMaster post the long version I’m curious
@@TheHaremReviewer Alright. I respect what others think, but since you asked.
I have several reasons why it was bad. I see it as it going against the message of the show. They can redeem many villains including the spirit of chaos himself, but a single child was never offered a chance at redemption? Considering how Discord had many chances given it's kinda ridiculous to think about. Not to mention the three of them being shown to have potential for redemption as shown at the end of Frenemies. They made an entire episode having these three as the protagonists and having learned a lesson in teamwork and friendship in a way only for all that to be thrown off to the side. You can't just say they're irredeemable villains and then just give them a scene where they stop and question their motives and think whether or not they're doing the right thing.
Then of course there's the "public execution" scene. The trio are already defeated and powerless thanks to the Elements of Harmony. The Elements didn't outright obliterate them like they did with Sombra or turn them to stone like they did with Discord. Perhaps the Elements way of saying the villainous trio are not a complete lost cause. Instead we have the princesses and Discord despite him being the one pulling the strings and having used the three as pawns in his scheme to help boost Twilight's confidence being the ones to carry out the whole stoning spell. The writers were so caught up with wrapping things up that they didn't stop to think the dark implications of having the supposed heroes stone the villains despite them already being powerless. Celestia and Luna come off as vengeful and vindictive which is not something supposed heroes should be. Tirek and Cozy already looked to be scared and weak. Chrysalis looked ready to fight sure, but she could have easily just been restrained.
Not to mention the stoning punishment is total overkill to use on a filly who doesn't even have any powers to begin with. The Tartarus thing was already messed up, but the stoning is beyond messed up. Nobody bothered to look into this kid's backstory whatsoever? What was wrong with just sending the three of them to Tartarus? Tirek and Cozy were doing just fine there until that idiot Discord broke them out. Cozy doesn't need prison though. She needed mental help which is something they couldn't provide to her for whatever reason.
And that's not even going into the whole Discord being "Grogar the whole time" plot twist. How Discord himself used the three of them in his scheme, with Cozy and Tirek just minding their business in Tartarus while Chrysalis just off losing her mind in the woods. Yet Discord faces no punishment for his actions. In fact he even gets to choose the punishment for the three of them. There's being an antihero, and then there's just being a deceitful villain even with his good intentions.
But yeah that's my crazy rambling. Call me obsessed, but man even four years later and that ending still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
@@ZoruaMasterexactly how i felt and thought about it as well
How anyone can think that princess spike is almost as bad or even worse then Yakity Sax is just absurd to me. Yeah I don’t think the episode is amazing but the hate it gets is just ridiculous
instead of taking a sip of beer for every time someone learned not to be an asshole, i took a hit off my cart and i was high as shit by the end of the video 💀
Haha I get the april fools joke now when you called rarity "worst pony"
No, that part isn't a joke
@@TheHaremReviewer imagine calling rarity the "worst pony" 💀💀💀💀💀
@@TheHaremReviewer Then what is the joke?
@@njyawndra8609 the whole video is a joke because it’s April Fools
@@TheHaremReviewer what is bro saying???🤣🤣🙄💀💀
For some reason, they NEED to do Dash dirty every freaking damn time. And it all started with Mare Do Well. When I was rewatching the series everything was fine up until this episode where someone in the writing team probably was like "Oh guys, I think we don't have enough conflicts with Rainbow Dash!! Let's show everyone that she's an arrogant asshole! Yes she never acted like that before but who cares". The script is shitty for the ep honestly. RD became a hero in ponyvile for saving LIVES for god's sake. And when she gained a fanbase we were never shown that she ignored her hero duties. She was still helping everypony and taking rightful credit for that.
But her friends? From the viewer's perspective, it looked like "Omg she's so full of herself for saving someone let's put her into place so that she'll shut up and do her "work" quietly". Awful, just awful. It would be okay if they had a normal motivation. Like if RD almost couldn't make it in time because she was busy with the fanbase or smth. But that never happened. We were never shown that. All we saw was an episode where friends gaslighted RD for 20 minutes into thinking "you're nothing special"
ugh
This was such an entertaining video that when I tried having it in the background while doing something else, I just ended up getting glued to what you were saying! I agree with most of the ranking too, and even on points I didn't quite agree with, I ended up respecting your opinion anyway!
Exactly what I thought ! Didn’t know how to put words on it, thanks to you
@@time.2834 Aww, you're welcome!
Technically 3 harems if we count Flash Sentry
They all get shipped with every female that comes in contact with them. Its nice to see someone praise season 9 for once as oppposed to saying its the worst thing ever
Love my wife Derpy getting such appreciation
Also as a side note for why everyone adores the last problem, it’s because it makes the send-off address the viewers (bronies) who had mostly all been following the show since 2010, and all of the special touches and every single element of that episode, come perfectly together for the best sendoff episode you could ever hope for, and also that song is such a beautiful last note, and a tearjerker to dedicated fans who stuck by and even new fans that just binged it can get something really special and amazing out of it( From showing that Lyra and Bonbon were married, showing Derpy on screen because you can never get enough of that, showing a new mane 6, and making a couple head cannons like appledash and fluttercord come true, it just adds the right amount of magic to the last episode of a great series)
Side side note: Simple ways being a 10/10 is a war crime i extremely dislike that episode
I can see why people love The Last Problem but it wasnt one of my favorites even though its still really good
Also whats wrong with Simple Ways?
@@TheHaremReviewer I dislike rarity and applejack episodes, rarity is really unbearable in all of them, Applejack’s response to the way rarity acts in the episode is funny and that sexy applejack eating an apple moment was too, but also that part with spike was kind of a negative to that, and even outside of the episode, I don’t like how both simple ways and dragon dropped are two opposite sides of the same coin and neither of them feel like they do a good job
@retardposting that is true, it is a hot or cold dynamic (though some not to the fault of the characters and more Kim Beyer Johnson as she made the worst episode of season 9, non complete-clause) as there is really only one other applejack and rainbow dash standalone episode, and its fall weather friends, which is really solid. But I just think that it is implied in the last problem that appledash is real anyways, I always preferred Flutterdash however.
Great video! Don't listen to the hate, you did awesome and your effort and hard work in making a 3 hour long vid is much appreciated!
Yes let's appreciate him forcing his fetishes down our throats and continuesly putting loud unnecessary memes in the video, cussing like there's no tomorrow, and the amount of P- materials
In What about Discord, I just couldn't stand the fact that Discord said he didn't intentionally want to make Twilight feeling jealous that she didn't hang out with her friends, but instead he just wanted to make her feel left out
Bro this is amazingly edited and you did a great job please make more
2:35:33 About the ships at the end, the creators internationally made it vague because they stated that they wanted ships like FlutterCord and AppleDash to be left up for interpretation to the veiwer which I think is really smart and a nice way to make everyone happy, regardless of whether the view ships a specific couple or sinply views them as a platonic relationship. I actually do really like this episode and I kinda wish we got to see more of this future Equestria
Many bold opinions I haven't heard before. I don't know if I agree with you on everything, but I respect the balls to release a three hour MLP video this long after the show's end.
13:11 why do people say this episode was bad? i love this episode!!! i may be a bit of a psycho for liking to torment my favorite characters either in reading fanfics or writing them myself, but that's the reason why i love this episode. i love it when very tough and strong characters like Rainbow Dash get scared or broken down to the point where they're just the opposite of what their personality says about them. they brought out that soft side to Dash, and that's what i love about this episode.
yes, 911, I'd like to submit this person to the mental hospital
I don’t hate nor like the episodes it’s aight
I like the episode. Not one of my favorites, but I think it's a much better version on Mare Do Well.
Worst episodes is this and every episode after season 7

Actually, Scootaloo's parents coming back was terrible.
What’s terrible about it?
@@TheHaremReviewer Her being an orphan was established already, for the whole series except the episode that they came back, which was useless, because it was only to tie up loose ends for the last season. It had no use. Now all the orphans watching, have one less cartoon character to relate to.
@@ChaoGardenTasticPlus it shows that her parents are lowkey very neglectful over her. Really, the real parents here are Scoot's aunties
@@inumizunobut we don't see her aunts either until this episode, so the aunt's are just as bad for not taking care of scootaloo
@@Avoxxii Fair enough, they often leave her to travel but it's implied that other ponies have taken care of her? Idk
i love the babs seed episode so much its a good lesson imo it taught me a lot when i was little and getting bullied, i think it teaches that bullies have a lot of troubles at home and that yes u shouldnt feel pity for them but u should understand how their attitude manifested. it also shows how the cmc were LITERALLY becoming just like babs! its the same route babs was going down and it connects so well together. as a kid it showed me that i cant become like my bullies. i dont think the way the cmc handled it was right at all, as two wrongs dont make a right. it teaches kids that they should tell an adult when they are getting bullied, even if it makes them a "snitch", because its 1. better than doing nothing and letting it continue to happen and 2. is better than becoming a bully urself.
Great editing and you are hilarious my friend! I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
And I agree with most of your rankings, most notably: Simple Ways being the peak of MLP's comedy, Twilight's Kingdom being the best episode, and that the early seasons (1 and 2) still hold up after all these years.
Some of my own overall thoughts about the show:
- Seasons 1,2 and even 3 hold a special place in my heart, there's just something uniquely wholesome and down to earth about those seasons that make me still enjoy them after all these years, the nostalgia factor definitely has an effect when I rewatch these seasons.
- Seasons 4 and 5 are definitely the show's peak in terms of episode quality and many have left huge impressions on fans that solidified MLP as one of their favorite shows of all time.
- Season 6 in my humble opinion is the most underrated season, it's overall solid with some of the funniest episodes in the show to date, with an epic finale to boot. It felt a little bit like season 1 with Starlight acting as a mini Twilight and we got to experience some light hearted fun normal slice of life episodes once again, it felt like a desperately needed break from all the craziness of the prior seasons, but yeah I agree it's held down by some stinkers lol.
- Seasons 7, 8 are both alright, it had some extremally strong contenders for GOATED episodes like "A Royal Problem, Perfect Pear" as well as some of my personal favorites like "Rock Solid Friendship, Horse Play, The Hearth’s Warming Club, and Sound of Silence" but overall they had a severe lack of standout episodes
- In Season 9, the writers went all out trying to deliver a satisfying ending to the show and for the most part, they did that. The season still had weak episodes here and there, but with some great episodes and a strong premier and finale, the final season ended up being pretty solid.
My rankings for all 9 seasons, tier list form:
S - 5 2 4
A - 6 1
B - 3 9 7
C - 8
D -
1:56:20 WHY DOES IT ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE SAYING “6/10” AND “8/10”
I can tolerate the excessive profanity in the rest of the video, and I understand if you don't like her writing, but the way you talk about Merriwether Williams is downright mean-spirited. There are ways to assert yourself without being unpleasant about it.
She made multiple awful episodes and only 2 good ones, really don’t like her as a writer, but nothing against her as a person/human being
@@TheHaremReviewer And this is how you should have phrased it in the video instead of "F**k you, Merriwether Williams!"

15:07. Babies love playing pretend more than anything, so of course they’d play along.
13:09 I remember seeing a clip from 28 pranks later when I was younger and I got really scared, now when I watch it I remember me first watching that clip and getting amused at how scared I was and I think thaf made the episode seem funnyer to me than it actually is
If you ever find yourself asking “what was the point of ____?” while watching MLP:FiM.. Toys. The answer is to sell toys.
So for instance, I can just say “What was the point of Rainbow being a dick for most of the series” the answer is to sell toys 😂
1:13:08 trust me you’re not the first one to think they said Racist Barn I watched this episode without subtitles, and I immediately thought of that 😂
I bet this took forever thank you for making it it’s very enjoyable
Blud has a big enough sound audio library to find sound effects relating to every episode title nahhh 💀
I personally think "putting your hoof down" was a decent episode because of how painful it was. It show how both passive and aggressive communication is bad and clearly frames fluttershy being aggressive as a bad thing, and it still felt like fluttershy because of the scene where she locks herself in her home saying shes a monster that part made it clear fluttershy wasn't thinking straight or clearly and when she realised her dreadful behaviour she felt guilty, and the conclusion was well executed with her properly asserting herself and refusing the pay iron will. I will say rairities advice was shit especially how they were implying that the pony raitity was manipulating was ulgy or pathetic, although i respect that they stayed true to rarities character as she is a known manipulater particularly to guys. Id say if your soley looking at the episode based on teaching the moral and about communication its good id rate it 6/10 it was perfect but it did a decent job.
Although this is all my opinion, sorry i got carried away i guess despite being a hard to watch episode i do really like it and have good memories of it
Kind of similar here, too, though more on feeling the innocent being a target of said outbursts is done on purpose, even if wouldn't defend against not liking it(especially since said emotions led to a similar outburst at the Gala, a similarly cherished connection as friends being strained there)
And a bit less upset at Angel and more believability with Fluttershy there given a similar thing occurs with zoo animals and their food
The random sound effects actually made me laugh then the episodes themselves
You're under 18 aren't you?
I know for me, I hated dragon quest because it’s one of the main things where I picked up on “boys do this, girls do that” bs. It complicated my own journey because now I’m in the limbo of I do some masculine things and some feminine things but don’t want to be seen as…
My favorite episode out of them all was Slice of Life. I absolutely love seeing the background characters given more developed personality and, while it is fan service, it works. I love seeing the LyraBon dynamic and Derpy's voice in the episode fits her character. I also can't stand but fall in love with the duet between Vinyl and Octavia. It has great use of time management between the overlapping storylines. The casual argument between Celestia and Luna is great to see and I really like the sibling dynamic. Dr. Whooves is a fun character to see, and the bowling sequence with the Big Lebowski is a fun choice. It was great to bring back Steven Magnet, and the overall wedding storyline is fun. Of course, Derpy is at her best in this episode, and the fact that she was the one who set the plot into motion is fun. All in all, I love the episode and it's at the top of my list. If you read this entire message, I congratulate you for reading my insane ramblings. Keep up the good work and I love your videos!
Edit: I say fun way too much in the message. Sorry 😐.
3:03:53 The reason Season 3 only had 13 episodes is because it was originally supposed to be the final season of the show, as they needed to wait until the show got renewed for more seasons as the show had reached its episode limit for that time period
Another interesting detail about the episode Granny's Gone Wild, is that if you look in the background for the ponies waiting in line, you can see a Rick and Morty Pony so thats pretty interesting
These are my worst episodes:
Yakity Sax
Non Complete Clause
28 Pranks Later
The Last Crusade
What About Discord
Princess Spike
This was a great video, I had no idea I needed one like this
Also I genuinely thought this was gonna be a joke video bc it was posted on April fools lmao
That intro though . . . WHY THE RICKROLL??😂😂😂
A lot of people seem to be disappointed by s9 so this is a nice change of pace
Season 9 is great.
"They learned not to be assholes...AGAIN"

I love how the song Bad Apple is played before the One Bad Apple episode
The appeal of Hearth’s warming eve is the worldbuilding aspect of it, if you don’t care about that crap then I can see why you’d be bored to death by it. It’s like how some people love history class in school while many just fall asleep during them.
Fluttershy Leans In was just a feel good ep where we are shown the extent of how much Fluttershy has grown as a character. Idk what’s so bad about it
I think "28 Pranks Later" is when I knew this show was going downhill
⚠️WARNING ABOUT THIS VIDEO⚠️ AT 1:17:34 there is a random spider jump scare thing on the screen I don’t know why and I think it’s stupid people without Arachnophobia have no idea what it’s like for us who do its not funny or silly it’s fucking terrifying and an annoying fear to have tbh it’s very frustrating idk if there is any more In the video cause I am not watching the rest
There’s only one more after it, but yeah it’s pretty annoying
I know what it's like to have a "dumb phobia" I won't say which but it's stupid, and dw i understand ☠️
this deserves so much more attention!
Ikr?!
Yeah!
No thank you, this guy acts like a pedophile
Dude this is so well made and edited where are all your subs and views broooo
Amazing video, great to see something of this quality from such a small channel.
19:09 damn bro used the demonetization word 😂
"Eww babs kill her"
When you said that i died 🤣
I’m not a huge surf and/or turf fan, but I do think it’s a really unique and interesting way to portray different difficult decisions kids have to go through such as divorce. Like the choice may seem obvious to us but it’s a very real struggle kids feel like pressure to choose where to go or figuring out where they belong and yeah. I think it was cool to see in a way that’s unique to my little pony
the fact that i watched this whole thing in one sitting
Hey so sorry, I hate to be this person, but if possible could you try to be more careful with the r-word? It makes me uncomfortable and sad knowing that I have friends who've had it used against them. Aside from that I'm really enjoying the video and I appreciate all the effort you put in, I just wanted to point it out in case you weren't very familiar with it being considered harmful. Otherwise keep up the good work!
Agreed!!! Thank you for explaining it!!
Learn how to take a joke.

I really liked 28 pranks later.
I agree with you about a lot of the episode rankings, but as for the overall seasons, I only ever rewatch seasons 4-9, Twilight is much better after she gets wings and the first 3 seasons are just okay but definitely meant for kids instead of trying more to appeal to the all-ages fanbase the series ended up having. Also I like some episodes featuring Discord such as To Where and Back Again and of course all the epic multi-parters he was in (but not so much Return of Harmony) but I wish he stayed a rock or at least lost his powers forever in the grand finale and was forced to live a mundane life without being an omnipotent jerkface. He could still be happy and married to Fluttershy but he would just have to be a regular mortal like everyone else. Also Babs Seed was bad in a typical ass hole kid way but she didn't deserve to be thrown off a cliff and die so I'm glad the CMC learned to handle their problems without using deadly force.
One thing that always confuses me about hearts and hooves day, ingredients for the love poison can only be realistically acquired by Pegasi. Cloud, rainbow and a pegasus feather. All things abundant in Cloudsdale
WARNING: Jump scares at 3:13:25 which is at the very end. You better stop the video before a dragon pops out of your screen if you watch it in 3D.
That's a animatronic fox 🤓
2:57:20 simp ways without the le might be a better title, but aside from that thius episode is pure comedic gold!
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I'VE SEEN IN A WHILE
My thoughts differ from yours with a good amount of episodes, so I guess I’ll just make a case for one I really don’t get.
One bad apple.
The point of how the cmcs actions were wrong was that they had began to bully her out of a genuine desire to hurt her. While Babs’ action were not right either she acted that way out of a desire to protect herself. The cmc reacting the way that they did would just be entrenching babs’ defense strategy and continuing the cycle of antagonism. Hate can only destroy.
Admittedly the writers screwed up with not having applejack explain to babs’ that her actions were not justifiable either, and the point you made about children needing to be able to resolve problems themselves is sensible, but how exactly could they have done that? Children need guiding figures in order for them to even have a frame of reference for what’s the right course of action in the first place. And need to learn from them in order to learn How to process information in the first place. After which they will then have the tools necessary in order to problem solve independently. But the cmc couldn’t do that if they didn’t already have that knowledge beforehand, now could they? How exactly were the cmc supposed to realistically and believably resolve the issue of babs’ inexplicable change in behavior without going to an adult and asking them for help in order to understand what’s going on and have them assist in remedying the issue?
"Dashhole episode" As a professional RD hater, I fucking love that term.
