AJ has had a ton of screen time this season. So much so I'd call this the apple season.

What if we quantify it by how much more we know about each character this season? I wonder how that stacks up?

Someone make a graph of how much airtime and dialogue everypony got so far this season!

Well, I suppose:

We've learnt that Twilight hates missing deadlines and can caught up in the smaller details sometimes
We've learnt that Rarity likes bringing out the generosity in others to help herself/benefit everyone somehow
We've learnt that Applejack ... does stuff with apples we haven't known about before.
We've learned that Pinkie Pie isn't quite a natural with kids and that she can understand that people have a limit (even if it takes a while)
We've learned that Rainbow Dash possibly has a few nerdy quirks she hasn't discovered/finds her reputation very important
We've learned that Fluttershy ... exists.

We've learned that Applejack is good at remembering her past lessons, and that she has an incredibly irrational fear of letting others down that can lead to her doing some very shortsighted things

Disappointing others is a perfectly rational fear.

When it drives you to run away from home, I'd say it's getting just a bit irrational.

Ginger...relax, from that small, small description we don't know it's all a bout Pinkie, for all we know it could be an ensemble piece. And yeah AJ hasn't really had her own episode, but she has played a decent part in a very large number of them. And she's definitely gotten more screen time then some others of the Mane 6. If any Mane 6 pony got gypped on screen time it's either Twilight (who had the majority of last season to herself anyway) or Fluttershy.

Build a fool proof system, and the world will create a better fool.

Hi Mousa!

We've also learned that Dash can blow up barns...urgh.

So, we're getting an homage to Murder on the Orient Express in an upcoming episode? I have just felt my heart grow by three sizes!

On the other hoof, we'll probably have Pinkie as her usual cartoonish self rather than an actual human being.

I'd really prefer it if we got more relatable Pinkie, but if I'm right, Pinkie'll go overboard and be her "wacky" self. Maybe we'll get a nice shout out to Hercule Poirot though (The character). That'd make me so happy. Augh! I'm completely torn on this.

It'd great if they did reintroduce Tank, but I haven't got high hopes.

You really should give her a shot, Ginger, There are a number of incredibly competent villains in her novels( those where the antagonist qualify as villains anyway). I'd recommend you read Curtain: Poirot's Last Case as proof, but, well it's the last book in that series.

Drenius our shared interests are getting scarily similar again!

P.S: I'd love to see Tank again.

Hell, I wanna see Tank too.

Has he ever appeared outside of that ep? Even in the background?

Not surprising, seeing as how you're utterly picky with what you read.

I've never finished any of her books either. I started reading The Body in the Library, but I kind of forgot about it after a couple of chapters.

#120192 Drenius Sat, 10th Mar '12 5:04:49 AM from Northern Virginia

@Applelight:

Oh come on, lot of people are fans of Poirot. I even counted a few in this thread who brought it up besides yourself, so it can't be that disconcerting.

I haven't read an Agatha Christie novel before, but I think I remember watching a small part of Murder on the Midnight Express (I believe I switched in when it was at The Reveal, so I don't particularly care about spoilers of it).

Also, where does RD keep Tank? Is he on that weird device permanently in Cloudsdale?

#120194 Applelight Limited Sat, 10th Mar '12 5:06:52 AM from Manehattan to Canterlot

@ Drenius

Yeah I guess.

But I'm still overjoyed to hear this episode...also, for the second time round...Pinkie gets the last normal episode of the season.

Actually, it's because I'm not a big reader.

FO:E and ASOIAF are the only things that've gotten me back to reading with anykind of frequency

RD doesn't live in Cloudsdayle

Hm, I like my hardboiled detectives for sure, but there's just something that appeals to me about detectives like Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, and Father Brown. I guess it's the way they have little eccentricities which they actively inflate to put people off their guard.

I learnt about her from some research into And Then There Was None. I blame my Touhou habit for that one
