History YMMV / MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsDigitalSeries

** The first is centered around Timber Spruce's return. Some are happy that he's coming back, giving the potential for him to be fleshed out even more; others wish that [[DemotedToExtra he would suffer the same fate as]] [[ButtMonkey Flash Sentry]]. His appearance in "Unsolved Selfie Mysteries" did not help with his detractors at all, with them claiming that he came off as a DirtyCoward by hiding behind Twilight.

* WereStillRelevantDammit: One particular multiple-choice short focuses on Twilight trying to decipher an emoji text from Timber Spruce and asking either Rarity, Fluttershy or Sunset Shimmer on how to respond. It doesn't take away from the rest of the short, in fact it seems get a bit of LampshadeHanging on the ridiculousness in how each girl tells her to respond, but it's still a bit jarring knowing that this is an active plot point in a piece of ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'' media.

* BrokenBase: Some find the series a great way to continue the ''Equestria Girls'' franchise in new ways without resorting to movies, others find them the uninspired dregs of half-baked ideas that couldn't support another movie anyway. Related to this, fan demand for a full ''Equestria Girls'' spin-off show has been around for a few years now. Either you think this series is that spin-off and like it as such, find it to be a waste of potential for a full show that could have been made with these ideas, or are grateful the series didn't get a full spin-off because these specials prove it wouldn't have been able to work.

* OlderThanTheyThink: The original Roger Corman movie is from the 60s, predating "the Flories" by several decades.

* TruerToTheText: ''My Little Shop of Horrors'' is so far the only adaptation that draws from the original Roger Corman movie, as opposed from the musical. The LighterAndSofter tone matches that of the Corman movie (which, even as a horror b-movie, was a lot less dark than the musical), Audrey Jr. is a genetic experiment as in the Corman movie (the musical changed it to a creature from outer space), and even the happier ending hews closer to the ending of the Corman movie.

* AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6lt4-dR4lw The show's intro.]]

* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: While he has slowly become more accepted by fans thanks to ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls LegendOfEverfree'' and the "[[WebAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsSummertimeShorts Good Vibes]]" music video, Flash Sentry's redesign, especially his neater hairstyle, has won over a lot of fans.

** New characters being introduced in the human world. In this case however, the debate seems to be centered on one of the two characters confirmed to have this happening to them: [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E12FlutterBrutter Zephyr Breeze]], whose pony form is ''already'' a base breaker.

* NightmareFuel: In "My Little Shop of Horrors", magic enchants a watering can Twilight brought and all the plants she waters with it gain the ability to sing with her. Starts out nice, right? Well, the plants keep getting bigger and bigger until they start becoming sentient and more human-like in appearance, even gaining individualized voices. They want Twilight to keep watering them so they'll continue to grow and by the end, they're all fighting to take the watering can from Twilight and each other. If Applejack hadn't come to the rescue, who knows what the plants would have done to Twilight and Spike?

** The concept of a guerrilla street artist going by the name of Flanksy, as a reference to the legendary Creator/Banksy, was already explored in the fan fiction ''Exit Through Canterlot,'' though it was Octavia who used the moniker and it took place in the pony world.

* HilariousInHindsight: A few regarding the existence of a YouTube-exclusive ''Equestria Girls'' show.

** Back when ''Rainbow Rocks'' was announced and set for release, [[http://www.toyzmag.com/2014/04/kazachok-2014-hasbro-tranformers-et-my-little-pony/ a French toy magazine reported]] that the Kazachok Licensing Show 2014 event had (supposedly; the entire thing is very EpilepticTree worthy) details on a new ''Equestria Girls'' series titled ''L'Equestria Academy, l’école de tous les succès'' [[note]](The Equestria Academy: The School of Every Success)[[/note]], and that it would debut on that year's Kidexpo (except it didn't, and was never mentioned again).
** And, of course, the insanity of ''WebAnimation/EquestriaGirls'', which predates '''the first film'''[[note]]For the unaware, it's a parody series made in the wake of the initial leaks of the entire ''Equestria Girls'' concept -- as such, it's extremely heavy on the StylisticSuck, starting with the fact the Rainbooms are poorly cut-out vectors of the leaked concept art that bob up and down to talk[[/note]].
