If future episodes indicate anything, it seems we'll end up with Flutters having the least amount of Focus episodes, and of course Rarity having the most.

And yes Applelight, she is quite perfect, but I will keep it a surprise.

Well, aside from the CMC (whom I consider part of the mane cast at this point anyways), the show hasn't given any focus to any side characters at all really. The Valentines Day episode looks to be changing that, however, so Derpy has a chance at an episode later, perhaps.

@ Ginger

Still, it would be kinda amazing if they actually made a Derpy episode, maybe flesh her out beyond being a klutz and show some more of her character a bit.

Also, her voice didn't do it for me at first but after watching Derpy's scene a few more times it actually grew on me since, I realized, how much she sounded like "rocky" from party of one sans the Brooklyn accent. Still YMMV but IMHO I kinda liked it, especially since it was such a surprise y'know?

[up][up][up][up]I want to point out again that with the speculated episodes AJ, Pinkie and Fluttershy will all have had only three focus episodes.

Also with any luck we will never get a Derpy episode.

I love Derpy, and am totally okay with her continuing to speak occasionally, but I'd like it if they dial down the stupid a bit. I don't mind her being clumsy, or a bit of a cuckoolander, but making her dumb seems a bit mean.

[up][up][up] I like it when she says CERTAIN lines. but in others she sounds too dumb. If that makes any sense? My attitude towards her voice changes depending on what she says

I like derpy, but an entire episode may be too much.

[up]This, pretty much. I liked that scene, but a whole episode of that kinda thing would wear pretty thin.

AJ has had Look Before You Sleep, Fall Weather Friends, Applebuck Season, The Last Roundup, and the upcoming episode. Pinkie will have had Party of One, Baby Cakes, and the eventual Cranky Doodle. I'm not sure Feeling Pinkie Keen counts since its more of a Twilight episode with Pinkie Pie overtones.

Flutters has had Stare Master, Dragonshy, and Green Isn't Your Color, but unlike the others, we're all concentrated in Season 1.

Cutest Derpy line?

For me I loved her "You ok, Rainbow Dash?!" while poking her head through the hole in the floor.

... so CUTE waii

@Ginger: I agree with that, her "you okay Rainbow Dash?" and "anything I can do to help?" were really cute, but her earlier lines were a bit off.

It seemed like Derpy's voice became smoother as the scene went on.

Derpy's pretty cool. In my head canon, she's just clumsy, and unfortunately nopony takes her seriously because of her eyes, and her voice. But if anypony would look past that, she's actually pretty intelligent.

And as for those two scumbags I mentioned earlier, I used to be friends with mbulsht until he turned into a total Jerk Ass, and I had Gentleman Otter on my Skype for a while because... well, I had a bad feeling about him at first, and thought I had misjudged him. And then he revealed what he REALLY thinks about Pinkie. And the avatar was the straw that broke the pony's back. It's just like Pinkie and Gilda in the Griffon episode. Both of them have been blocked.

[down] That's fine. He did something to me personally and a dear friend of mine. So it's personal.

I'm of a firm belief that just about anything can be done well, so if Derpy gets an episode, I'll be all for it until it turns out to be bad. No reason to hate on a concept before you see the results.

@ Crowfall

I don't think she was dumb, she was just klutzy and a bit of a walking disaster area. I mean, just because she sounded dumb doesn't necessarily mean she was dumb y'know?

@ Robbie Rotten & Japanese Teeth

I understand what you mean, it would be a bad idea to overuse her as a running gag and such. Then again, it was her first appearence and maybe after a few subsequent appearances she'll get fleshed out a bit more so that she becomes a more rounded character. I mean, we didn't really have a whole lot to go on when we first met the main six besides...

  • Twilight being a bookworm and the princess's favorite student
  • Pinkie being a motormouth who loved parties (and was a bit weird)
  • Rarity being interested in fashion
  • Fluttershy being well...shy and being good with animals
  • Rainbow being lazy but good at her job (and a bit of a showboat)
  • Applejack basically living on the farm and having a large family

but my point is that the writers could flesh Derpy out to be just as memorable as the mane six (as a character) just as easily as they fleshed out the mane cast during seasons 1 and 2. Besides, it's only her first episode, give a chance ehh?

I really dislike "Derpy's" voice, it makes her sound... Autistic.
