We're a bit over halfway through S4.

Honestly, I don't get the point of the youtube reviewers either. Like, the only difference between their opinion and mine is that they had the time to make a video about it. I mean, I did do writeups for previous seasons, but that was more so I could just point at them when someone asks what I think about something rather than trying to determine whether they're bad or not.

Remind me why I'm supposed to care about a You Tube reviewer's opinion of It Ain't Easy Being Breezies.

Huh, thought there was a longer lapse then that.

Because people got tired of more official reviews that always give 7.5/10 and wanted attention, I suppose.

Is it bad that I'm getting a bad impression of the whole youtuber reviewer thingy?

-shrugs, his holed appendages evident- Must be a slow day right now I think...

@absol: What more official reviews? There are no "official" reviews aside from maybe stuff done by professional journalists.

I mean the ones by people who are part of some established website or brand. Though honestly I'm kind of thinking of like game or movie reviews or when the first episode of a series premiers. I don't really know of any website that officially gives /10 scores for every episode of an animated series.

Yeah, people don't normally review TV episodes like this.

@Star: To put it lightly, they found my hiding spot one night, managed to sneak me out without waking me, and proceeded to convert me at hive... That's all I was told from the 'lings.

@Pics: -fidget- That anon tempts fate more than I do. Also, Sweetie droid! Wrong song!

So NES is a changeling? That would explain the cheese obsession.

@Yeller: Cheese obsession? I only picked that up from you jesters.

@Starscream: Actually could be plausible for a conclusion... but then... my brain hurts on measuring the length.

I only watched review of MLPFIM eps from CR (obviously no more fun) and SF Debris.

I never watched any those reviews on YT, and I'm not going to since I hear they are so negative.

Allow me to address the "The episode is a toy commercial, therefor it sucks" complaint: Hey, you know another episode that was basically a toy commercial? A Royal Canterlot Wedding. Yet pretty much everyone loves that episode. Hypocrites everywhere, man {Not aimed at anyone here}.

[up]Well, Silver Quills and Mysterious Mr. Enter are actually pretty good {Though Enter has some issues of his own, but he's still far better then the likes of Bronycurious and Digibrony}, but yeah, apart from those two I now avoid MLP reviewers as well.

Just to nitpick, there are a few people who don't like that episode, but it's usually less due to the toy stuff and more that they feel like SA and Cadance needed a better introduction.

Oddly enough, Bronycurious was one of those that hated it and, a lot of his issues did end up bringing up the "Just to sell toys" thing.

But yeah Mr. Enter has his issues but overall he's pretty good. And Silver Quills, is just freaking amazing. His stuff never comes off as bitchy or nitpicky, he always tries to be fair, explain why issues exist, look at things from a rather balanced POV, and outside that, is just freaking hilarious.

A Canterlot Wedding is probably my favorite episode.

@JT: I meant to say that the majority of people like those two episodes. I'm actually not too fond of them for the same reasons you mentioned {Though ever since the FIM comics and Three's A Crowd I have softened up towards those two characters, and ARCW did have a lot of cool moments}, but the episodes are pretty much a toy commercial, and I've seen people praise it who would later go on to bash the recent episode for selling toys. Just saying.

A Canterlot Wediing is my fave as well. But yeah. The reviewers tend to not like it.

Are we really still talking about reviews after a six page thread hop?

As far as my opinion of the "general consensus," I still hold that Power Ponies sucked worse that Mare Do Well, so that oughta tell you how much I care about the gencon. :P

Is anyone familiar with how the Twitch TV chat works? I keep getting disconnected when I chat too frequently, but I can't find anything about this feature.
