I love the things they show that the Apple's got from their parents, even the ones they don't point out. Example, we see AppleJack both read to AND cover one of her trees in an earlier episode. Wonder where she picked those habits up from?
Also, assuming Bright Mac and Pear Butter were a little older than the Cake twins when we first see them (Round up to 3, since they do appear to be more psychologically developed), the hours work out to be almost exactly 15 years, meaning they were in their late teens (18, if the previous estimate was right) when we see them during the song scene, making their behaviour toward each other in their relationship both absolutely precious, and entirely realistic, with the added bonus that the Y7 police won't get their panties in a knot about them getting married.
4:30 [Oh wow, an outhouse?!? So their barn doesn't actually have a bathroom?] Maybe they do, but Granny is just so set in her ways that she refuses to make use of the newfangled indoor plumbing.
16:15 "Usually it's the guy who sings the song, in our world." But Equestria is a female-dominant, matriarchal society. In their world, females serenading males could very well be the norm.
+Narrator007 Hmm probably not. The sirens may sing amazingly, but they are NOT as adorable as my ponies. In fact, I'd probably join the mane 6 with some sorta musical magic myself to fight them, most likely some hard rock or crazy percussion! XD
I agree with you on Applebloom. She is like a young version of me in the past if I had been female. We have some things in common. Like she use to be impatient and wanted stuff right away. That is how I was when I young. I wanted stuff right now and found it hard to wait. We both had bully problems in school too. So I felt a deep connection with her. That is why she is my favorite pony. In my book Crusaders of the Lost Mark is still the best episode ever.
+Scott Houston Crusaders of the Lost Mark may have been moved to 2nd for me, but you're right, it's still extremely amazing as is Applebloom and her adorableness! Plus I just find country accents so cute and sweet and farm work to be inspiring in terms of simplicity and work ethic, which is probably why Applejack is my 3rd fav Mane 6. 😄 I don't know where I'd really rank the Crusaders on my overall list of best ponies, but Applebloom and Scootaloo would definitely be in the top 10 at least. 😊
Another thing. I have probably watched Crusaders of the Lost Mark over 100 times. As a matter of fact I am watching it again right now. Well listening to it right now. Since it is hard to watch and type. I think I am addicted to this episode. :) So far no other episode has come close to making me wanting to watch it over and over. :) That episode did make me like Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. I still get liquid pride every time I hear Diamond Tiara's lament song about being the pony she wants to be. :) But I do have a small confession. Perfect Pear did come close. It knocked down On your Marks to third on my list. Which knocks The fault of our cutie marks to fourth. Then cart before ponies is fifth. Also a non CMC episode or an episode with no CMC in it is sixth and that is the one with Starlight Glimmer being called by the map in A Royal Problem. Now back to watching Crusaders of the Lost Mark.
2:50 [Breakfast for dinner?!? Wow, sounds like my college life AJ! You and I would get along just fine! :D XD] Have you ever of that game where someone add the words "in bed" after any sentence someone else says? You just gave the perfect setup for that. You even supplied the extra emoticon for it!
Narrator007 ... I have no words. XD Though I will admit, as attractive as I find southern accents, I'm also intimidated by the usually strong, independent women that voice them! :P AJ is amazing, but not my top choice for the 'If I were shipped with somepony who'd it be' list. She is still 3rd best pony, which is far higher than most other's lists, so she should be proud! :D
I wasn't intending to share this, but since you started I feel like I should. My first-choice hypothetical shipmate would be different from my favorite pony, Fluttershy. Flutters is my favorite to watch, but I have way more in common with the scientifically-minded bookworm, Twilight Sparkle.
Narrator007 XD Same! Though I think it's mostly cause while I relate to Twi a bunch, and find her super cute, we've also got so much opposite from each other that she'd probably help me stay organized with mundane things I dread doing haha!
Is it the perfect time to say 'Kids show my ass'? XD Grand Pear is definitely the most tragic character of the show. Wth is wrong with the show, i started to watch this for cute and funny stuffs and now i watch it for the FEELS. Another amazing episode of two ladies, they are modern Amy Keating Roger of mlp, hope they will write more eps for S7. Random: About Starlight parents, i hope her parents are secret evil wizards, i dont know why i want that...
+Lambdadelta You're right about these two writers! They've quickly risen the ranks to top favs for me too! :) Starlight's parents as secret evil wizards?!? XD Well that would be quite the contrived, but intense and fantastic season finale type story, so I'd be game with that too! Ooh-! And if that was the case, her parents could be trying to tempt her back to her old ways of using magic for evil reasons, all while having an epic duel against the mane six with dark magic! :3
ColoradoContraptions Awesome, but people will complain about 'Starlight show' again so... But i hear someone in the staff said that her parents appeared on-screen in Cutie Remark...
+Lambdadelta That's true... We did see them there, but we don't know anything about them really. And please, after 'A Royal Problem' Starlight is as much a mane character as the others! There's no turning back now, I'd love to see more with her and the others! I mean, there's still that wishlist item of mine with an episode with Starlight interacting with the CMC, so... Starlight haters can fight me, I'm fully behind her inclusion in the show! XD
ColoradoContraptions From what i saw, there arent many hate for Starlight during S7 compare to S6, so that mean people start to like her or at least stay neutral, it means her performances in S7 speak for herself, not any defences of her fan. During S6, its hard to be Starlight fan, if you are active all the time in the forum, you will feel bad to be Starlight fan. Here my wish for Starlight character: If writers have any agenda to make her a replacement of Sunset Shimmer, drop it. I want her episodes happen outside Twilight castle MORE OFTEN. What you did to Discord, dont do it to her. You get what i mean, right, Discord is reformed villain but his appearances are nothing more than a running gag and... John da Lancie, his story arc is ended after S4. And finally, she will form her own group of friends. She got Trixie, Maud in her friend lists, we need some more, let catch them all.
Not really related. But here in Pensacola. Q err I mean Discord err John Delancie (not sure if I spelled his last name right.) is coming to Pensacon. I probably would be flipping out if I heard the voice actors for the CMC were coming. I hear they only stick to pony cons and don't do fandom cons. I have no idea if that is true though. :)
+Scott Houston I think that is mostly true! My first convention was at Midwest Bronyfest in Kansas City Missouri and Michelle Creber was there! (I love her personality and random fun she brought to the convention!) Plus she and Black Gryphon together... Prepare for a laugh fest! SO FUN! XD
Wow! You are so lucky to see her. I got brave enough in 2016 to do an alternate reality cosplay of Applebloom where the males dressed up and have long manes instead of the females. I did learn one thing . That Applebloom and Fluttershy coat colors are very similar. Got mistaken for Fluttershy about three times. I also learned it is very hard to stay in character on your first time cosplaying. :) I wish we volunteers could also cosplay on the days we are schedule to work. I do understand they do not want us to be distracted. But how hard it is to watch an elevator to make sure that only the attendees that need it have access to it.
+Scott Houston Lol true! I've not been much into cosplay myself (I don't really have the resources to do so), but I'm amazed at what I do see! Some people look like they pour out their life into playing as somepony they love and that's so cool! My personal favorite parts of conventions are the panels, vendor hall and random nerdy geeky games lol. (I'm so like Twilight or Sunburst in that respect) Especially the MLP Collectible Card Game... So fun! XD
Well there is a couple of panels I am interested in, One is the Disney Pin Trading and the other is Horror icons. Since I love animals my favorite horror icon is the Werewolf. Hmm I wonder if there are any were timberwolves in Equestria. (laughs)
On the babies talking, it seems a lot of folks get confused by this. I immediatly assume if baby's are talking, it's baby talk translated for the audience. Why is that so confusing? XD Great reaction though! Crusaders of the Lost Mark, and this one are my top favorites
Great reaction! This should have been the mid-season episode. I don't know why they stopped at 11 (easily the weakest in the 10-13 range). HOWEVER, I must charge a strike against you for talking about a future episode. I would appreciate if you didn't do that, since I am trying to go unspoiled about MLP, which seems harder and harder to do by the minute, hehe.
+msolec2000 Ah, sorry about that. I only mentioned the title. And truth be told, most of the time, the titles really give NOTHING away. I don't read any of the synopsis, because I don't wanna know the story, just the title keeps me curiously guessing without outright being spoiled. And I would've discussed the title of that episode in the future when it came out this weekend anyhay... But alright. I'll try to save that ONLY for when the episodes air. :)
Thank you. :) I admit this one is very vague, but sometimes they are a bit more spoily. It's just that I'd rather be safe than sorry. I appreciate the try. It's just that there's so many things I can't do if I want to avoid spoilers already, at least watching reactions I like to think I can. :)

I'm finding every reaction to this episode (and amending fences) because I love seeing people go through the same rollercoaster as me.
I love the things they show that the Apple's got from their parents, even the ones they don't point out. Example, we see AppleJack both read to AND cover one of her trees in an earlier episode. Wonder where she picked those habits up from?
Indeedy!
0:36 "Water splashes everywhere while you're scrubbing those plates down..."
And when you're busting through water silos. :)

Narrator007 XD I never considered that option!
16:15 "Usually it's the guy who sings the song, in our world."
But Equestria is a female-dominant, matriarchal society. In their world, females serenading males could very well be the norm.
Narrator007 True. Man I wish that were the case here... I'd easily fall for that! :D XD
Better plug your ears whenever the sirens show up. Sounds like we'd lose you fast!
+Narrator007 Hmm probably not. The sirens may sing amazingly, but they are NOT as adorable as my ponies. In fact, I'd probably join the mane 6 with some sorta musical magic myself to fight them, most likely some hard rock or crazy percussion! XD

That's true.... that would make a lotta sense lol. I dunno why I didn't think of that to begin with XD
Pearbutter looks great with that cowboy hat.
Question do you know who Grand Pear is? And did you know that his name is a play on the word Grand-pere which means grandfather in French?
I did know that ^^ And yes, none other than the infamous William Shatner from Star Trek. Gotta love it
@@ScarletFury yay 😁 and you're one of the few that managed to get it without looking at the credits

msolec2000 You are watching an episode commentary. You should watch all the episode before watching this video.
