I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

Somehow, I get the feeling Apple Bloom's potion-making will come up in "Leap of Faith" and Sweetie's magic will be how she ruins Rarity's outfit in " "For Whom The Sweetie Bells Toils".

EDIT: Ooh, pagetopper.

Give it time...

Anyway, the One More Day discussion gave me an odd idea for a fan fic- Rarity sells her soul to satin. And no that's not a typo.

Well I doubt she would cotton to the idea quickly, but she might be swayed by the demon's words in time.

Okay, I get to once again watch episodes that aren't really new anymore. Yay work.

So we have an episode named for a notorious lip-syncer. Hopefully this doesn't mean much for a musical episode.

Prediction: Flutters is totally lip-syncing while Harry does all the work.

Knowledge of Fluttershy's singing is like a phylactery. Catch her indulging, and she combusts into evil lich fire and retreats to the underworld to be punished by Lord Smooze.

Pinkie Pie knows a good inspirational speech always leaves the recipient overdosing on Vicodin.

Okay, so Fluttershy put her hoof down, refused, and everypony understood. Crisis averted. The next 15 minutes are a romantic comedy.

Pinkie's smile while bouncing away in that scene looks a little...off... >_>

Oh my God, they're acapella with Mac singing bass. DO CARMEN SANDIEGO!

Rarity just damned the entire town to another excessively weird and drama-filled weekend. Grats.

So either stage fright is actually contagious, or they're seriously entertaining the idea of Fluttermac. Or both; Fluttermac could involve contagious disease.

Pinkie's skeeving on a trophy. DON'T JUDGE HER.

And won it too! The things that will happen between Pinkie, a gold trophy, and a bodypillow with another gold trophy on it are disclaimed to be completely consensual and with only a moderate amount of heavy metal poisoning.

Wait, wait. So, Rarity's going to guilt Flutters into joining because having only three voices would force them to "rearrange all the music". So she's replacing their beatbox bass with a soprano and not rearranging anything. LOGIC.

Oh no. Zecora is...we're going to get Flutterguy again, aren't we? God I love this show. [lol]

Of course she's doing it flawlessly. Which makes me wonder how often she sings along with the bass line instead of her own range at home.

Cheerimac seems to still be a thing. Nice and adorable nod to that. waii

So now there's some Russian producer with a daughter from Alvin and the Chipmunks. God I love this show.

Okay, it's a hella catchy song, but they should probably have like...more than one song. This is starting to remind me of the Family Guy Star Wars band.

Spike as a bouncer. <3

I love how Fluttershy's voice doesn't just go really deep — she actually turns into a black guy.

And she's improv-ing. And moonwalking. I think my heart just exploded.

"Something disastrous just happened on stage! Quick! Put all the spotlights on it!"

Whoa, I was just kidding about the lich fire thing. Apparently spotlights really do make her disintegrate like a DBZ villain.

'Splainin', Apple family style. Oh Applejack, you're still best pony.

Pinkie giving another inspirational speech while stalking her. [lol][lol]

Okay, I'm split between thinking Pinkie's going way, way too far and being a jerk, and still being hilarious. Maybe if she wasn't actively reducing a friend to tears in the process, or was throwing it at somepony a bit more inclined to laugh at themselves. I could see this knocking enough gears loose to break the tension if it were Applejack or Dashie.

Well, that was a ridiculously charming episode, and very firmly one of my favorites. Also, Fluttershy's got some jazz in her bones! Damn, girl!

I'll watch the actual new episode tonight.

Oh boy, Sweetie Belle is learning magic. I hope Twi asbestosified the library.

I guess you could wear thighs over your tights, but then you get arrested by fashion police and actual police.

Straining a bit hard there. I hope this doesn't turn into Sweetiepoo.

Okay, so I'm hoping Scootaloo trying her hoof at mechanics isn't a nod to End of Ponies, because that was just too impossibly depressing to even nod at. Apple Bloom trying out alchemy is actually something that happens a lot in fanfiction though, given her thing with Zecora.

And while trying to make a growth potion, she accidentally invented one that bestows sentience on plants. So now she can join the club of improbable accidental discoveries while researching unrelated things: Teflon, aspartame, and the instantaneous traversal of spacetime.

Diamond Tiara is...going into acrobatics? What? Or she's making old stallions do it? WTF? Where did this come from?! o_O (and why does he look like Jon Pertwee?)

Don't forget it makes no sense at all, because it says the only person in the entire marvel universe who can fix a bullet wound is satan. Not Doctor Strange, not Iron Man, not Mr Fantastic... Just satan.

As a demigod, I find nothing wrong with that.
