What's the deal with all these in-season breaks?

I think it's done in order to space out the season. Discovery Family is taking this time to apparently re air all of the Season 5 episodes in a special marathon, so if you missed something, you can check it out again.

S4 had literally only a single week off (just before Trade Ya!) between when it started and when it ended. I remember seeing a few people here saying that, towards the end of the season, they'd gotten somewhat burned out on :ponydrugs: every single Saturday for 20+ weeks. Maybe that was a common enough sentiment across viewers that Hasbro noticed and decided to do something about it.

Of course, I have to wonder how good of an idea that was. Make New Friends but Keep Discord had a week off before it and, ratings-wise, it was the worst episode since S2. I just hope the 100th episode actually gets promoted and doesn't similarly eat shit :flutterdear:

I'd like to think that it'd be promoted enough, just from the fact that it's a milestone episode alone.

We went for so long without a pony episode between seasons that taking a few weeks off doesn't bother me at all. :pinkieshrug:

A historical video on the Presidential Portrait of JFK. Pause at the 1:11 mark and look carefully...

It ain't the first time this sort of thing has happened. There was one time when the United States Postal Service released a stamp with a picture of the Statue of Liberty's face as viewed from below. However, it turns out that the statue in the picture was not the real thing, but was instead a smaller replica that sits outside a Las Vegas casino. It had been in with other stock photos of the Statue of Liberty and no one responsible for making the stamp seemed to know the true origin of the stamp.

By sheer coincidence I just found out about the "Camelot" thing this morning. I'm really hoping the picture in question was made in service of that pun.

My guess is that the picture was made in one of those lame attempts to shove ponies into famous historical photos, much like that one of Rainbow Dash placed with the Jews who are being herded by the Nazis into a concentration camp.

At least one of those history photoshops was good.

Most of these look better done than the ones that showed up in PPPP recently; maybe it's because the ponies stand out less once you put everything in black and white.

I got those pictures from this story, which is one of my favorite fanfics. It makes me wish for more "Ponies in the Real World" stuff, but I suppose what we're getting this season with "Ponies in their world, which is now a real thing" is ok with me too.
