@Enlong: Honestly, it almost feels like a Lampshade Hanging. The writers know that Big Macintosh is The Quiet One so they play around with it.

Big Mac hit his dialogue quota this season in just this one episode.

You know, when Zecora first talked about getting a replacement singer, I thought she was going to volunteer for the part.

@Meta As fucking awesome as that would have been, it would derail the episode from Fluttershy.

I wish Zecora would just appear more often.

[lol] I love how Applejack is all matter of fact once Fluttershy is found out. Though to be fair I think she was getting a little carried away there.

That was a surprisingly nice episode only one drawback, Pinkie Pie. God damn it stop talking and offending Fluttershy will ya? Who knew Big Mac could sing huh?

I feel like the only person who wasn't annoyed by Pinkie.

Who knew Big Mac could sing huh?
Considering he's sung before and Peter New can sing...a lot of people probably.

@Swas I meant as part of a singing group. I already knew he sang but whatever.

I think the girls were a little too enthusiastic on reasuring FS. She's SHY for fuck's sake. Of course she was going to run away!

Although Fluttershy has always been adorable, it's been awhile since I've seen her actually be this adorable. I was squeeing every time we cut to her dancing backstage.

Throughout the Tones' song, I had "Mister Sandman" playing in my head, until the more Fluttershy improvised and got into the music so it sounded more like a jazz tune!

So time to watch Filli Vanilli, the episode that sounds like something out of Wreck It Ralph

  • Half of that song didn't even have words
  • What, you guys heard her singing all the way back in Best Night Ever. Oh wait, that wasn't diagetic, I guess
  • 'But I'm so good at it' - Pinkie continues to be best pony
  • Luckily they are all accepting of her decision not to sing and the Ponytones are doing perfectly well already, so there won't be any conflict this episode. It's not like she's going to get roped in due to a sudden vacancy or anything.
  • Big Mac actually says something! grin
  • Ha, totally called it
  • Fluttershy, I know we liked your singing, but right now we need you to do your best Big Mac impression instead.
  • Poison joke? Wow, I was not expecting that.
  • Wouldn't changing her voice also get rid of the amazing singing voice they liked earlier? Also, the curtain's totally going to come down at the end of the song.
  • Oh Fluttershy's just back here being the ultimate Roadie. In between sessions of Brutal Legend.
  • What's with that small pegasus anyway? Is she a Breezy?
  • Guess she's just a normal filly who looks really unsual for some reason
  • Ok, why has F Luttershy suddenly become in love with the Mayor?
  • Also, this is going on for multiple days, Shouldn't her friends have noticed that her voice has changed?
  • Good thing the water isn't transparent or anything
  • Was Big Mac looking at Fluttershy's plot?
  • One last show? Ok, no way this isn't going wrong. Fluttershy's going to get reveleaed by the end somehow.
  • Called it! Again!
  • So Fluttershy is willing to sing now, but only in front of her friends. And surprisingly, this isn't a key episode.
  • Celestia. WTF, why is this journal just full of colored squiggles?

Was Big Mac looking at Fluttershy's plot?

Yes he was. :3

Also, this isn't the key episode because it's about confidence, not kindness.

Sometimes in animated shows meant to air globally, they sometimes have to make on-screen text into gibberish because they don't have the budget to change the words for another language.

It may also have to do with the fact that the animators just don't want to waste the time & money putting in readable words that are upside down and would look awkward at that angle and trying to animate a horse who writes with her mouth in English instead of scribbles must be insane and ponies are adorable and I don't know where I'm going with this...

Can I just say I for one loved the return of Flutterguy?

I think my only complaints are Pinkie being an ass and the other two members of the Ponytones could have been background ponies and nothing would change.

Speaking of background ponies. Dinky has a pet tortoise is canon. Adorable fanart now! Also, Lyra was hanging out with Blues a lot this episode...do I smell the rage of shippers?

Again, this ep has TONS of nods to the fandom and I love it!

Also, sad-face Angel was HEART-BREAKING!
