Re: S04E12: Pinkie Pride

Yep, that was a Pinkie episode alright. The Pinkie-est of episodes, even. Fantastic handling of her character (and everyone else too), lots of fun visual gags, amazing songs (really happy we got another musical episode!), and some great callbacks. I loved Pinkie reminiscing about the past parties she's thrown for instance, even referencing A Canterlot Wedding. In retrospect that was a pretty huge deal for Pinkie, being chosen to organize the festivities for a royal wedding in the nation's capital city, and it's cool to see that acknowledged. (I do wonder where all the other ponies were in that picture of Twilight's first party from the pilot...

I also found Twilight's "...really?" followed by Pinkie's relentlessly happy stare and Twi just silently walking away to be hilarious. And Derpy at the chocolate fountain was a perfect example of how to do a Derpy cameo, I feel.

That early Dash line about Pinkie's parties being "fun and sweet and all, but..." was really harsh though, with Pinkie tearing up (and then licking those tears away



Anyway, loved the episode. Don't have much more to say about it at the moment.

Thanks for pointing this out.
