Magical Mystery Cure Episode Review

Season 3 is over, and it was quite the ride.  But it was also a ride that culminated in one of the most controversial decisions in the show thus far: Twilight's Princess Coronation.  While the frustration among the fan base was less vocal than many expected, the Alicorn transformation still overshadowed the plot of the episode itself. It's a shame, since the synopsis promised an interesting look at the nature of Cutie Marks, and offered one last chance for Twilight to prove herself.  With such high emotions and expectations surrounding it, did it deliver?  Well, I ain't gonna answer that in a sentence, so hurdle the break to find out!

Background Music for MMC's Songs Have been Created

Just For Sidekicks Episode Review

Between the Alicorn rumors, Discord appearances, and Trixie returns, Season 3 has definitely been a season dominated by "hype."  So, what does a quiet episode about Spike opening a makeshift babysitting service have to offer?  Quite a bit, actually.  So, if it's not too late for you, follow me on past the break for a glimpse at the wonderful world of my opinion...

Just For Sidekicks Commentary

Oh snap, either the planet's spinning too fast or there's a black hole falling from the sky!
