A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I missed the personal opinion corner.
Worst S1 Episode: "Feeling Pinkie Keen" It's funny enough but it so horribly botched it's moral. (Bit of a sensitive issue for me because I am actually religious yet hate the "just take belief as objective fact" attitude).
Best S1 Episode: "Suited for Success" Best song, best humor, and perfectly paced.
Worst S2 Episode: Probably "Mysterious Mare Do Well" for the usual complaints but if it weren't for the Smile Song I'd put "A Friend Indeed" here. After the song's over it turns Pinkie unbearably annoying then pulled some DEM at the end to leave her unpunished.
Best S2 Episode: "A Canterlot Wedding" Personally as a massive fan I beleive this is the closest Pony will ever get to Disney and I love it. Sure Shining Armor and Cadance were introduced a bit clumsily but I actually relate to "Big Brother Best Friend" a lot and really like the dynamic there. The second part is just pure fun and music and I do love it.
Worst S3 Episode: "Apple Family Reunion" for just being the most boring episode of the series. It's not bad but in absence of a truly offensive S3 episode AFR ranks worst.
Best S3 Episode: "Magical Mystery Cure" Yeah I really like musicals, OK? Yes the pacing was lightning quick and would have been much better as a two parter, but all the songs and the emotional high notes added up for Magical Mystery Cure being my favorite of the series so far.
Worst S4 Episode (so far): Eh. Nothing sticks out to me as completely terrible but "Simple Ways" which varies between dull and awkward. It's painful to see Rarity so Oo C and while that was the point I just didn't think it was funny enough to make up for it.
Best S4 Episode: "Pinkie Pride" To those that would flame me for putting this below "Magical Mystery Cure", this is my second favorite Episode of the series and it's actually a much overall episode overall, but I personally find the music a bit less catchy, and it's hard to beat the sheer weight behind "Magical Mystery Cure".
Ponies?
