Derpy's voice actress is actually Tabitha St. Germain.

She does a great "more boyish Rainbow Dash" impression.

Has Fluttershy taken flying lessons? Normally walking is her usual mobility mode... holy hell she can run like that now, too? O_O

Might've been easier if Rainbow Dash had just flown to get Applejack, she is the fastest after all... Also, why is Carrot Top in Canterlot and why doesn't she know what Applejack looks like? tongue

Oh, and yes, Derpytongue

Could've sworn Derpy was voiced by Ashleigh. Sounds like her.

As for the rest of the episode, when Fluttershy said "but we could never find a way to fix the hole in our heart.", I teared up a little.

Actually I found that formulation to be narmy. Not the best line-to-line writing in the show.

Yeah, I thought it was a bit sappy. The fact that Rainbow Dash pointed it out as such saved it, though.

Yes, yes. Derpy is now canon, and she is hilarious. But I'm more glad about the fact that Applejack got an episode.

Also, J Teeth, your avi is awesome.

I get the feeling that Derpy is going to be the christopher walken of the show. As in, she only shows up for one scene of certain episodes, but she steals the show whenever she appears.

And yes, I know walken's done more then One scene wonder's, no need to point it out.

Me too, but I am less glad about the fact that Applejack appeared very little, even in her own episode. The Pinkie Pie episode was basically all about Pinkie Pie and her antics, and the same can be said for the two RD episodes; instead, this Applejack episode was basically about her friends' attempt to find her and bring her back.
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

I don't watch the show to see mathematically balanced screen time for every character.

I watch it for the entertainment value.

The episode entertained me.

Therefore, I liked it.

End of story.

Aw, poor Applejack. D:

Also, poor Rarity. XD

Btw Pinkie, I like you, but that's Deadpool's schtick.

Me neither. But Applejack is my favourite character in the show, and she could do with a bit more screen time...

I liked the bit at the end where Pinkie and Rarity are making their way back to Ponyville.

@Hekireki: Thanks. Here's the full version.

[up]Yeah, the ending made me laugh. Rarity is going to be psychotic by the time she gets home.

Screentime nothing. This episode was about Applejack all the way though, even in her absence. Especially in her absence.
I took a guess and cut a portion out of my heart.

Well, except for the scene with Derpy.

Why did nobody tell me this was an Applejack episode? All I heard beforehand was that Derpy was addressed by name in it!

Well, it's called "The Last Roundup", and AJ is the western themed pony....tongue I dunno, I think it's just that pretty much nobody saw it coming.

I tend to assume everyone saw it before me, and I didn't read the episode list. ^_^;

Anyway, I liked it a lot.

I'd agree with Carciofus about Applejack's screen time, but Derpy, Flutters and Pinkie were really funny so I can't really complain.

The new episode was great in my opinon. Great humor, Short but funny scene with derpy, and various other things I could say but you all probably know what they are.

I kinda wonder if derpy will get atleast a little bit more screentime in later episodes. I know it's probably not going to happen, but I keep thinking that derpy's going to be responsible for dash ending up in the hospital in one of the upcoming episodes lol.

Jayson Thiessen said there will be "a specific Derpy bit". I doubt she'll get many other scenes.
