My friend was right. XD This season's theme for MLP is "other ponies are jerks."
If I don't get at least one Trixie-related tickle commission now, I'll be surprised. XDDDDD
Soon as I saw the tickle scenes I thought, "Thanks, Hasbro, for giving them more totally canon ideas." XDDD
Can I get a Trixie-related tickle commission? *brick'd* I really wouldn't be surprised to start seeing those appear online XD Right now most of the stuff I see is about taking Pinkie's mouth away XD |

Okay, so I've been really bad at watching episodes on Saturday, but no more than the last couple weeks. I just watched the third season's episodes 6 and 5(in that order), and I was only reminded to do that by some fanart I saw earlier. Rather, a lot of fanart I saw earlier. I think my Scootaloo gallery may double in size by the end of the week, if not tonight. ((EDIT: There were 45 pieces in it before I posted, and 78 pieces in it now. Not quite double.  )) Oh my goodness, the continuity gags! The Trixie-related ones in her episode didn't surprise me, but Spike referring to Winter Wrap-Up and Scootaloo doing a synopsis of Sonic Rainboom caught me totally off-guard.
I did like how Trixie actually, y'know, apologized for her actions this time around, showing that sometimes people really can change, even if it's not immediate.
I also liked that Scootaloo finally got an episode, even if she did sort of share it with the rest of the CMC. And I'm really glad that Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash having a sisterly bond is finally officially canon. |

If this turns out to be true, this will be when the show officially jumps the shark. EDIT:It seems the source was from reddit, and the only post they have is this one. So it's most likely not true. I'll keep it under spoilers, so you can still read it if you want. |

Hahahahaha, totally false. Forget "could" get him/her fired; divulging important season finale and staffing info like that would TOTALLY get you fired (and blackballed, if you're really THAT much of a blabbermouth, sheesh). That's why you have to sign a NDA (nondisclosure agreement) before you start working on something like a TV show.
Also, how could they say that they were just brought on to do S4, and then in the very next paragraph says that the season finale of 3 was something "we" had control over. Really, there's tons of stuff that they know about S3 that doesn't seem even remotely feasible for one person to know, unless they were being brought on as an exec, and nobody that high up would be that loose-lipped.
And finally, I'm having my doubts about the fourth season even starting. I mean sure, I know different production crews handle shows differently, but there's no way they're finished with S3. Absolutely no way. They just finished ep 6? With 18 more episodes to go? PFFFFFFF. I know when Archer airs next month, we'll still be working on eps 9 and 10 (depending on your department) of 13.
In fact, I looked it up on Wikipedia, and it confirms about what I suspected:
Uh huh. A month after completion, so they're working on, maybe episode 10-12 right now? Of 24 episodes? And how exactly does this S4 worker know the ending of an episode that probably hasn't even been boarded yet?
Hahahahahahaha, that's a pretty sad attempt to troll other bronies.

I have no opinion on the situation, but from what I've been reading and hearing everywhere, Season 3 will only have 13 episodes, not 26.

13 episodes for season 3 has been confirmed.
But I have to say, what they lack in quantity, they're definitely making up in quality.

On a kind of different note, I noticed that ep 6, Sleepless in Ponyville, appears to have been pulled from the Hub site already, within two days of it having been put up on the site. The last time I remember seeing something like that happen is when The Last Roundup was taken down because of the Derpy thing, and even that took more than a week. Does anyone know anything about Sleepless in Ponyville that might be related to this?

Well thank you for reminding us of that entire Derpy drama no thanks to that one blabbermouth who caused that tidal diarrhea-storm of a comment.
No seriously, ever noticed how much those official merchandises (toy figure, Gameloft mobile game, IDW comics, etc.) doesn't refer Derpy by her name? They're actually minimizing the damage done but the entire drama is still etched into our minds no thanks to that good-for-nothing terrible person who should feel terrible for causing this whole dilemma.
Sorry, but I'm still mad over how easily this entire thing can be prevented. In fact out of respect I'm not even going to say who that person was, because they (not even by the gender, mind you) don't deserved to be identified.

Eh, even with 13 episodes, I have a hard time believing they're not still in production for S3, considering how much more complicated these episodes have gotten.
Also, I don't care about bronies or fan pages or anything fan-related to MLP at all, so I haven't heard about the Derpy controversy until I googled it. If people are upset she represents disabled people, how is that the responsibility of one person? Fairly sure anyone could make that conclusion.

That reminds me how I'm a little disappointed in this season, lack of Derpy hiding out anywhere. I liked looking for her like a Where's Waldo sort of thing.
Also, Hasbro doesn't have anything against Derpy anymore. They just don't call her Derpy (or any name). Or else they wouldn't have gone through the trouble of making her a toy (I believe twice now? Comic Con and I think there is one at Hot Topic).
Anyways, yeah, I know it takes a while to make the series XD They started months ago, just to get this far, and still working on future episodes. The most they'll probably have is a quick story written and stuff, but the boards and stuff probably haven't been started.
On a totally random note. Cool, Archer starts next month XD

Actually, apparently Derpy does still make 'Where's Waldo' appearances in Season 3. She's just a lot harder to spot. Example: This short (not too spoiler) scene from Crystal Empire Part 2, bottom-right corner. The MLPFiM wiki also lists her as appearing in Too Many Pinkie Pies and Magic Duel, though I, personally, haven't spotted her in either of them, yet. EDIT: I think I spotted her in Magic Duel. Here. That's the picture that was modified for the commercial, but it's still the same place in the real thing. She actually seems to appear not once but twice:
1. Right side, second row from the top, near the right edge (only one Pony between her and the edge).
2. Left side, second row from the bottom, near the left edge (only one Pony between her and the edge). |

XD *kind of tempted to ask for one of those shirts for Christmas, though can't decide if is brony enough to wear it in public* |

Hot Topic apparently has a bunch of awesome merch that I'll never get because there are no Hot Topics in Canada.
*adds MLP stuff to the list*
