I thought the Beezies were a cool episode.

Also, I accidentally poured a ton of red pepper flakes on my food and now my mouth feels like a supernova.

The way I see it is that there are legitimate complaints about FIM's worldbuilding, but the breezy thing is definitely not one of them.

It could be that Breezies evolved alongside Pegasi.

Or perhaps it used to be that they'd use natural breezes, back when "natural" didn't mean "pony-regulated".

Favorite Fluttershy Episode: Putting Your Hoof Down

Favorite Twilight Episode: Lesson Zero

Favorite Rarity Episode: Suited For Success

Favorite Applejack Episode: The Last Roundup

Favorite Rainbow Dash Episode: Sonic Rainboom

Favorite Pinkie Pie Episode: Pinkie Pride

I usually don't like Pinkie Pie episodes, I prefer Pinkie being a funny background event. Up until this season, that's been consistently funny and enjoyable. Pinkie Pride was the only Pinkie Pie episode I actually liked.

I really don't get why the toy commercial aspect should have any influence on the enjoyability of the episode. And a show should never stop introducing new stuff.

Also, season 4 is way better than season 1. Take that, purists!

Whatever.

Best episodes

Season 1: Green isn't your Colour

Season 2: A Canterlot Wedding (Hurricane Fluttershy if two parters don't count)

Season 3: Sleepless in Ponyville

Season 4: Rarity Takes Manhatten

Best unicorn: Twilight Sparkle. If she no longer counts, Lyra Heartstrings.

Best pegasus: Fluttershy

Best earth pony: Coco Pommel

So, good question, what's your alls guilty pleasure episodes? Ones that you know have fairly major narrative flaws, poorly done, but are still just enjoyable to watch for you?

Like I said, mine's Games Ponies Play. The narrative is a mess, but the individual scenes are just to amusing and entertaining to not enjoy.

Maybe the Pegusi just made things worse for the breezies? Like originally they were able to handle the breeze with only a small amount of difficulty, but then the ponies decided to help them out and they grew dependent. Now they're much weaker fliers and can't manage without pony help.

I'm not sure there are any I'd call guilty pleasures.

@Starscream: Unfortunately, I've looked once in the mirror, and learned why the changeling didn't hassle me.

@Guilty Pleasure episodes: I do not think I have one, though the fact I kinda liked Putting Your Hoof Down would probably be one of those cases. Also the fact that Keep Calm and Flutter On was another episode I liked (which I think had controversy) is another iffy case.

@Seraphem: Only one I can think of off the top of my head is "It's About Time", which was chock full of filler, but also really fun to watch.

I don't think there's any guilty pleasure episodes for me. There's really only a couple I wouldn't be happy to watch any time.

I have no guilty pleasure. If I enjoyed an episode, I enjoyed it. None of this stuff about narrative coherence and continuous characterization is gonna make me feel bad about it.

If I did notice this stuff, then I didn't enjoy the episode, or I didn't enjoy that part of it. If I liked something else, then I liked that and there will no guilt involved.

[up]Yeah, I'm weird about that. There are occasional times when that stuff doesn't bug enough to hamper my enjoyment of the episode.

Because it isn't an opinion on Tumblr?

By the way, haven't really followed MLP since first few episodes of season 3. Is it on season 4 or 5 now?
