Ishi Rudell & Denny Lu who do EQG movies & show episodes respectively as directors have credits since S1. The main rotation has been in the writer end; insofar as the DHX end, lots of people have stayed the whole time, they've just moved up.

I really want to see GM Berrow be given head writer because she lives and breathes pony.

I don't know how many people here saw this vid, but I just saw it.



Anyone who played computer games on Windows in the mid-1990s might get it :lol:

If I were to re-edit this, I'd go with 'Show Don't Tell' and remove the speaking bits with Twilight doing her nerd talk and explaining about the yeti; it should just appear from behind.

Yeah. I remember being surprised by the yeti out of nowhere when I first played this so many years ago.

Now I'm wondering if somebody did a MLP/Chip's Challenge mash-up :v:

Whatever character he plays needs to either spend the entire episode with Discord or needs to not appear with Discord at all.

Kind of.


He's never met John de Lancie's Q as far as I know. However, there was a being he encountered named Trelene...



Very similar to a Q, and there was a book that revealed him to be a Q (and implied that he was Q's Son).


:gotcha: Trelene taps into the power of the universe and has more power than the Q. He's defeated when Captain Picard challenges him to a sword fight, and uses a sword imbibed with the essence of (de Lancie) Q. Stabby-Stabby allows Q to get past his defenses.


:amazing: And I am seriously not making any of that up.

Not that I'm shocked, but it's surprising they're planting that flag so early when we typically hear nothing until the next season nears completion. Season 7 was confirmed in October.

Yo, hold up... this doesn't literally say "season 8 coming 2018," at least not according to the single slide that EQD cited. All it says is "2018—The Magic Continues" and "New Stories and Experiences." Unless I'm missing something, nothing here actually says there'll be an eighth season of FiM.

The 3 EQG specials are coming to Netflix this summer. I was expecting to get them spread throughout the year, but this is fine too.

I remember when I played the game for the first time. That yeti was a pure WTF moment for me because I didn't expect it.

I wonder if somebody Ponified "Chip's Challenge". I remember spending hours on that game.

Always struck me as odd how everyone just agrees to work you after you kidnap them by balloon.

So do more kids actually watch it when it airs the day before Easter? Because I'd think a whole lot of families would be busy that day with traveling and such and wouldn't be able to plop down in front of a TV for an hour (after all, it's not like DF is providing a legal means for kids to stream it live on mommy's phone while they're in the back seat of a car).

Pretty sure Disco Fam stopped caring about ratings a long time ago.

I hope they air a "live episode" where the ponies flub their lines and you can see the boom mic.

Eh, I feel like that'd be getting a bit too cynical, you know? The Saddle Row Review was pushing it in that regard, and managed to pull it off brilliantly, but unless an episode like you describe was utter comedy gold then I think it'd mostly just feel out of place compared to other episodes.
