Man, people are really determined to get upset about things before the episodes happen this season.

Eventually all of mankind will destroy itself with its squabbling. But, it'll be a pretty fun ride up to that point!

I assume the writer knew about Pinkie's sisters/home life, wrote an episode where she named one of them Maud Pie, and then later they found out a book was coming out with two different names for Pinkie's sisters and went "oops." It's probably nothing more than a minor miscommunication.

The books clearly had S4 knowledge. Noelle still could be at fault here.Fizzbuzz wrote:Incidentally, that book did also mention a third sister of Pinkie's, so Maud's existence isn't the fault of the new writer majorly fucking up or anything.

No you don't! Tell the rest of us first, then go to bed.
Mr. Big wrote:My guess is they just didn't care about what was in the past episode, or simply forgot about it, so when they realized that they added one more sister, they just said "fuck it" and just went with it.
