Episode 21:

Check list of offensive things:

Over simplification of a complex conflict. Check.

Shitty resolution. Check.

Ham fisted attempt to address something controversial. Check.

Belittlement of the actual issue to give a mostly irrelevant Aesop. Check.

The only thing good about this episode is Pinkie Pie's (perfect) song. AJ and RD both out of my good graces until further notice, though RD's sort of always been that way.

[up] y'know what? I'll agree with you on all that (It's Polsky after all)

What I CANNOT stand for is that kind of attitude towards Applejack!! [lol]

[up]Well she did egg the conflict on when both sides were sort of willing to talk it out. It isn't exactly a shining moment for her.

L Mage, Dave Polsky's episodes (Feeling Pinkie Keen and Over A Barrel) are controversial, to say the least.

[up]Has he had any season two episodes yet? I'm not really up on who wrote what.

When we die, our bodies return to the earth, becoming the nutrients that plants and trees need to grow. Those plants become the food that we eat in order to survive. That's the natural cycle of life.

I'm just speeding up the process a little...

I thought that Feeling Pinkie Keen was perfect and much better done....This....this was a shitfest.

Its pretty rare for people to like both Dave Polosky episodes. They usually like one of them or none of them.

[up][up]Have you ever wonder how she gets those apples to have that really deep shade of red?

@Crow True. but he seems to react to every character's character flaws with hatred. They're not SUPPOSED to be perfect!

AJ's problem is stubborness. She honestly thought she was doing the right thing

Not that I know of.

Also, the real secret ingredient in Applejack's pies: Whiskey.

I know the alcohol would actually cook out of the pies as they bake, but Rule of Funny.

What did AJ do? She egged on the conflict, sure. but she honestly thought she was doing the right thing, and was trying to stop an entire town from losing their homes. What's wrong with that?

Her intentions were pure

It's bad road for my to put more thought into this episode, because if I do that I wil flip out. And if I flip out...yeah, it won't be pretty or fun for me.

So...I am just going to cal Discontuinty and move on to the next episode.

@ JT (Post #58812): Ee-yup. After a couple'a big slices, you don't care if they're good or not. They're guaranteed to put a smile on your face. [lol]

Her intentions being pure doesn't mean she didn't screw up there. Little Strongheart and Braeburn were willing to talk, possible find a compromise, but she was dismissing the buffalo position entirely.

[up][up][up][up][up]People handle their problems differently Ginger. I don't agree with his position but if it helps him in the long run then so be it. Remember, you can do it too.

[up][up][up] Characters sometimes mess up. It's what they do. You can't get angry at them every time it happens.

If that were the case then I'd hate House

I find it impossible to dislike a character who gives her beloved apple tree its own room and bed, then baby-talks to it. [lol]

[up][up] Ah, but I have more reasons for disliking her than just "she messes up"

You should know how complex my relationship with her is [lol]

[up] Actually, that might be the most insane thing AJ's ever done XD

I, for one, think it's the most adorable thing she's ever done.
