Welp I'm getting caught up on S5 reeeeallly late.

This episode felt weaker than others in the season, but that could just be because this season has been so damn good so far. It also wasn't Spike's best episode, IMO. It was still solid and entertaining the whole way through. I like how they took the pretty basic Saturday Morning cartoon esque-plot of "character can't get any sleep" and made it more interesting by adding the depth of Spike's struggle with being granted power. Also having the story thread of Spike's bad decision making tie together (the water pipe seems like it would just be a throwaway noise gag, but at the end of the episode it turns out to be really important) made it have more depth than the usual way plots like these go.

Overall, solid. Not something I'll rewatch religiously, but still good. I do hope Spike gets more time in the limelight soon, poor guy feels more neglected than some background ponies.

Okay I guess it's time to binge E10-E20.

  • "We love ALL the princesses!" i tell you what
  • I like Spike's "WHERE THAT PUNKASS BIRD" face.
  • You could try closing the window on all that stuff, dude.
  • donchano
  • Twilight is reminding me of a certain Courage the Cowardly Dog episode.
  • "The princess is always right." :wingsright:
  • Spike is literally just providing the most obvious solutions.
  • Cadence really didn't think leaving Spike to deal with this alone was a bad idea? Haven't we learned by now that the road to hell is paved with Spike's intentions?
  • Eyelash fluttering. :-I
  • "Oh, bless me."
  • "Maybe I did do a good job today." lol
  • Spike's nose still doesn't give one fuck about Equestria.
