| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/05/season-5-in-storyboard-phase.html Lets start our first news with this. The drafting and storyboard are in the work. What will it be :O |
| Can't wait to know more about season 5 ! I have so many expectations !! |
| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/06/wall-street-journal-pegs-season-5-for.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Well this is something. Season 5 is coming sooner then I thought. So after the EG 2 movie and spin off serie, this is next. I expect this to come till october. |
| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= A clip of what I think will be the opener. Can't wait |
Animewolfguy said: A clip of what I think will be the opener. Can't wait Well, this is definitely interesting. Funny, too. I don't suppose we'll be getting anything resembling an explanation for the freaking crystal tree palace that would actually make a semblance of sense, but we all know better than to expect that at this point. The episode itself looks rather promising. I do so look forward to the arguments as to why the unrestricted rule of immortal superpowered monarchs is largely preferable to the terrible curse of equilitarianism. |

I'm pretty sure the tree thing will be address knowing how many people are bitching about it threw out the fandom but the fans are never happy anyway. I think this is another shot for that PPG episode that I heard was recieve negitive by fans. |
Animewolfguy said: the tree thing will be address knowing how many people are bitching about it "Addressing" things is so pointless without actual, sensible explanations anyway. It only eats up screen time. They really should stop with this sort of "addressing"... or at least McCarthy should, her track record of explanations that make sense is disastrous. |

Well that is what happens when people start shooting death threats at her for explaining things then go and gets angry about it. |
| Finally we found the bastards truly responsible for bad writing in the show: disgruntled fans. Surely we cannot expect professional writers to do their job properly when there are people complaining - the horror! - on the Internet. |

| Way too early to assume that. |
orp said: Way too early to assume that. Oh its very obvous as it does show Sweetie belle there. |
| It's just a picture, of one character. Applebloom got several marks in season one, before the CMCs were even formed - and than an entire episode worth of them in season two. |
| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/09/full-writing-staff-hinted-at-by-meghan.html All the staff for season. Some returning and some new ones as well and it happens to be that Meghan knows threw out the years. You always have to find trust with in the industry somehow. |
| Interesting. Larson, Rogers, Morrow are back, which isn't news, but it's nice to have that effectively confirmed. Williams and Powell are apparently out for this season, and I for one ain't going to miss those two the slightest bit. Whether the rest of them is actually good (some likely are) and if all the names are guessed correctly in the first place, remains to be seen. For now, it actually looks better than the fourth season. There's a lot of potential, unless the good ones end up being horribly underused and the majority of the new guys wreak havoc upon this long-suffering series etc. etc. We'll see in... what, half a year? mmkay. |

I'm pretty sure they will use them at their best. Some of them just got out of shitty shows and want to work on something good for once like the good old days. Also I'm kinda sad Merri isn't comming back. I think like poslkey, she takes risk a lot more and puts the most effort depite its reaction it got. |

| Yay season 5 woohoo! XD Twilight Sparkle is now an official princess with a job at hand and what's more, her own personal treehouse castle! I want to know more about her new castle -w- |

| http://equestriaconfidential.com/season-5-concept-art/ We are gonna meet a lot of new people in this season. |
Animewolfguy said: http://equestriaconfidential.com/season-5-concept-art/ These look rather nice. A weather factory episode is long overdue, there's an interesting griffon design and the monsters look straight from Wander Over Yonder - not that I'm complaining. |

I kinda think it fits as after all this is a cartoon and I like it as much. |
| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2015/03/tv-guide-exclusive-season-premiere-peek.html A new preview. I'm so getting ready to review this with a partner :D |
| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= Second teaser and I knew Sweetie bell is the first to get it. Which I can see since she seems like the quick thinker of the group. |
| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2015/04/season-5-episode-8-revealed-lost.html Yep this season they are going all out on adventure. |
| As it happens, I got a bit tied up for a while, and then decided to wait so I could watch a few episodes in a row. Given the announced writers, I didn't really expect much from the last two episodes. But at least the pilot should be interesting, right? The Cutie Map: Castle Sweet Castle: Bloom & Gloom: All and all it could be worse I guess. And now, the next few episodes with their intriguing premises and great writers actually seem to be worth looking forward to. Morrow's Rainbow Dash, Levinger's Discord, more griffins? Why yes, all of the above please. |

Animewolfguy said: So the season is meh for you so far. I kinda expected you to say that honestly. I'm still mostly undecided on the opening. I only watched it a couple of days ago, and in hindsight it's growing on me. None of the problems with it seem to be directly related to its core Wacky Adventure On The Edge Of Equestria story and how it unfolds. It retains this McCarthyan quality of being a great, fun show as long as you don't think about it, but to a significantly lesser degree. The other two are pretty meh, yeah. |

Well so far for me, its starting to show some promise with its adventure set up which is something that should of been delve since the beginning when it introduce us. |
| http://www.equestriadaily.com/2015/04/amy-keating-rogers-becomes-full-time.html Keeton leaving MLP for good. I give her the best of luck and hope she found some good shows to write for Disney. I'll never forgot the work she put and she even made a few of my favorite episodes. Man times are changes for MLP and I'm surprise how its still good. |
Also apparently there'll be four episodes by her this season, according to her twitter. Disney was putting out some very interesting series lately... if mostly on XD. If it means she's now more likely to work on some McCracken, Rudish or Renzetti projects, I'm perfectly happy with that. |
| Slice Of Life: this couldn't end well... Princess Spike: thoroughly mediocre. Party Pooped: finally, a good one. Amending Fences: more of a disappointment. |
orp said: Slice Of Life: this couldn't end well... Princess Spike: thoroughly mediocre. Party Pooped: finally, a good one. Amending Fences: more of a disappointment. Wait party poop is good to you! I thought it was so bad that I didn't care for it. Princess spike can go fuck it self. |
| Animewolfguy: Princess Spike is far from a good episode, and the fact that I can't call it the worst this season is sort of depressing in and of itself. But what, pray tell, is so bad about Party Pooped? |
orp said: Animewolfguy: Princess Spike is far from a good episode, and the fact that I can't call it the worst this season is sort of depressing in and of itself. But what, pray tell, is so bad about Party Pooped? I really didn't like the yaks that much and I hate that how they solve the conclution of the episode. That and the traviling moment that Pinkie had was so pointless. But however its not so bad but its so forgettable. Also for Princess spike, I can say its is part of the episodes I despise. Now its up to ten from the whole show but out of the 4 episodes I hate from this entire season, this I can call for my number one worst of the entire season which is going well so far. I rather perfer slice life then this episode and i didn't like that one ether. |
Animewolfguy said: I really didn't like the yaks that much and I hate that how they solve the conclution of the episode. That and the traviling moment that Pinkie had was so pointless. But however its not so bad but its so forgettable. Curious. This is almost the polar opposite of my own experience with this episode, haha. I rewatched PP a couple of times, and it's certainly far from forgettable in my opinion. I find the Pinkie quest highly entertaining, it ties very well with the story's conclusion, and the story itself makes perfect sense to me. It's a Twilight/Pinkie episode, and a much better one than most of them (both MMMystery and FPK belong here, so no big surprise). The main issue is Twilight getting invested in a failed plan, and too preoccupied with her fear of disappointing Celestia to properly deal with the problem, at which point it takes Pinkie to break away from her friends (who have gotten perhaps a bit too accustomed to simply relying on Twi's judgement) and discover the solution on her own. I'm extremely pleased with characterisations in this episode. Twilight being afraid of disappointing Celestia is done infinitely better than in Lesson Zero, and it works well at keeping the main narrative together. Meanwhile, this version of Pinkie is fantastic, she's being a perfectly good and reasonable character without losing much of her cartoonish Pinkieness, and in the years passed since this series' beginning I've never, ever seen this happening outside of Morrow's episodes. Based on characterisations of main characters alone, this must be one of the best episodes in the entire series. I'd still agree it's not, though. A number of issues prevent it from becoming a truly great one. Most notably - and I think most people would agree with me here - yaks' autistic rage fits are way too overdone, and completely overshadow the core issue of trust. The basic premise of Princess of Friendship suddenly expected to handle foreign affairs of the state could use a fair amount of polish as well. These, and a few smaller issues most likely come from the new writer, but I also feel he might be responsible for some of the good in this episode as well. I guess we'll have to wait for his next episode (there's at least one planned) to judge better. |
