Hello ponies,
Below, you will find the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic canonicity and episode ratings for seasons one through seven. As I completed this chart at the end of May and have since finished watching Season 8 and some of season 9, it’s not technically complete. I will say, however, that Season 8 and what I’ve watched of Season 9 almost feel like a new generation (with the exception of a few episodes). Many of the episodes felt derivative of some of the best MLP:FiM episodes in earlier seasons, with dialogue feeling cut-and-pasted at times, and the introduction of the sitcom-esque vibe and sarcasm among the Mane 6. This is somewhat expected, however, as each episode is written by independent authors, and with Lauren Faust having been fired long ago (along with nearly all of the earlier writers having moved on to other projects or otherwise left), it may have been harder for the writers to understand the characters’ internal motivations. Lastly, the prize for the worst MLP:FiM episode of all time may have a winner: “Non-Compete Clause.” And that’s all I’ll say about that infamous episode.
