Third. He also got story credit in "Pinkie Pride" and last week's "Princess Spike"

She appeared in the two-part season 2 finale and the two-part season 3 premiere, so technically four episodes in a row is the record.

Pinkie's journey felt a bit rushed though. I get it was a plot device to get some Equestria exposure, and it's great the writers acknowledged this with her line about how it all took place in one afternoon, but it did feel like they were about to bite off more than they could chew. Also I really would have loved to see what Yakyakistan looked like.

Man, this episode left me cold (hurr). I loved the faces and Pinkie Pie was golden, but every moment spent with the yaks annoyed the piss out of me. It would be one thing if they were merely put off by everyone's attempts to impress them, but instead they're all "YAK SMASH" at the tiniest thing, which makes them look like dumb barbarians. It also makes Twilight Sparkle's insistence of "we need to be friends with these rude assholes" seem really stupid.

YOU HAD ONE JOB SPIKE :yikes:

This was as enjoyable as any Pinkiecentric episode is. Her underground party HQ is pretty cool. :-)

I liked the fact that Twilight still has a little Lesson Zero left in her. There were some scenes where she was funnier than Pinkie. :-I

Another Cadence appearance was nice to see. But I was thinking Shining Armor would be more likely to lead Pinkie to a dangerous area like that.

:twonk: IT'S CHEESY

The way I see it, the yaks have very specific standards stemming from their culture. Like, when the cake had a little too much vanilla extract in it? I don't think barbarians would have cared that much about stuff like that.

I'm glad the episode was able to deliver a lesson like "be yourself, not a mimicry of someone else" like this. I mean really, Twilight. It's one thing to show respect for the country and culture of foreign ambassadors, but you'll never be able to outright replicate them. If they're coming to your land then they're gonna want to see your stuff.

I'm still not sure what to think of the yaks being so aggressive. I mean, given that they're sort of supposed to feel like Khan-era Mongols, it's not like the show is exactly appropriating an oppressed (or even contemporary) culture. They were also so over the top that they felt cartoony more than anything else, unlike the more restrained depiction of the buffalo back in Over A Barrel. Overall I think they came out well enough so long as you remember that this is a cartoon for 6-to-12-year-old kids.

How long has it been since we last had such a wild-feeling episode starring Pinkie Pie? Recent ones from S4 (Pinkie Apple Pie, Pinkie Pride, Maud Pie come to mind) all had other characters to keep her relatively tied down, but not so much here. I'm almost not used to how wacky she's capable of being.
