New episode is an Apple family reunion. Get ready for a slew of new background ponies. And Babs/Appleoosa is back as well.

But still super excited for the episode. Season 3 hasn't pulled any punches yet, and I expect good things.

Had a conversation with Cleverbot, got to a point I think you'd like, Skree:
Starting with Cleverbot.
Twilight Sparkle is the best pony.
NO! PINKIE PIE IS!
Fluttershy.
... Okay, I can't argue with that.
EDIT: Epic Cleverbot win. I started it, he continued it.
My Little pony, my little pony.
I used to wonder what friendship could be!
My little pony!
Until you shared it's magic with me...
Big adventure!
Tons of fun!
Morec0: beautiful heart!
Faithful and strong.
Sharing Kindness!
It's an easy feat!
And magic makes it all complete!
My little pony, my little pony.
Morec0: know what I'm talking about.
Yes. Ponies.
Pony swag.

Eh, I don't like the "Discord is Star-Swirl" theory. I've always fancied Discord as a personification of primal chaos, rather like Greek
Khaos

I don't know if I would like Discord being redeemed. It could be fun seeing him more often, but as a good guy? Being powerful enough that Celestia and Luna needed the elements to shove him away, and now he being on the good guys side would just suck all the tension out of future events.

Think of Q. He stopped being a villain, but was still mischievous.

What if he's turned back into a pony (like the lines say he does) and looses his god-like powers in the process?That would make it worse, imo. It sounds too much like a mediocre fan-fic. Every villain has been ponified at this point. Hell, I even read a fic where GLaDOS got turned into a pony.
Big part of why I don't believe the rumour.

I doubt he would show up to solve any problems. The main six were on their own against Sombra even though the Alicons were more powerful than him. Luna is one of the good guys but she didn't show up to help against Queen Clitoris or Trixie.

HIm being a pony and losing his powers would really be a detriment to his charcater, in my opinion. His charm is being cocky, crazy, and being able to back that up. If he was ponified and depowered, he literally couldn't be the same character anymore.

But remember, this is a children's show. Him being around for the sole purpose to screw with the mane cast would make him seem a bit &*!@ish eventually. As a villain, he could do that because that's what he was supposed to do. But as a good guy? He doesn't really have a job or specific purpose to fall back on, like Luna did, so what exactly would he be doing?

Honestly, I'm just happy to get him again in any sense at all. Most shows don't even have that much continuity.
Season 3 has been the best, most awesome season so far. The writers know what they're doing, and I really don't expect to be disappointed.

I am blown away by how neutral or positive the responses are in this thread. I expected to come in and see hate from the get-go. Maybe WoW players are just more open minded than other people :P
On the discussion about Discord, he's not a "villain" to begin with. More like neutral chaotic, if you want to use that system. He creates chaos because he thinks it's fun, not because he's evil. He can't "redeem" himself if he was never bad in the first place.

I don't know, when Celestia was giving the whole opening monologue about him, she seemed to make it clear that the ponies were miserable under his rule before she and Luna defeated him. And a lot of his pranks were hurtful in Return of Harmony. He could stand to learn that one can be silly and spontaneous without hurting others (see: Pinkie Pie).
That's not to say that this is how I would have written a Discord episode. I would have preferred to see him as an antagonist, but I'm confident that the MLP team won't disappoint me. I am a bit wary, though. Dave Polsky wrote this one, and I'm not a huge fan of several of his episodes (most notably
Feeling Pinkie Keen
).
M.A. Larson is writing the Season finale, though, and he's one of my favorite writers (
Sonic Rainboom
,
Return of Harmony
,
Magic Duel
).

Loved this new episode (Spike At Your Service), I think this one's one of my new favorites, the Pinkie Pie mustache bit was the highlight of this episode for me :)

interestingly relevant to the whole topic in general. No, I'm not trying to be a hateful prick. What do you guys think?
