Title: Pony life: two episodes announced
Post by: Mewtwofan1 on May 29, 2020, 12:43:49 PM: So, looks like Zap2it.com has two listings for upcoming pony life episodes, airing on the 13th of June. We have Princess Probs and The Best of the Worst being aired on discovery family. As the pony community, what are your thoughts on the episodes? I’ve left the synopsis down below, and here is a link to the website with the listings.
Listing: https://tvlistings.zap2it.com/overview.html?programSeriesId=SH03525491&tmsId=SH035254910000&from=TVGrid&aid=gapzap

Princess Probs: The ponies help Pinkie Pie audition for a televised cooking competition called the Royal Jelly Juggernaut. When the rest of the Mane 6 are caught in a sticky situation, Pinkie Pie has to audition for the Royal Jelly Juggernaut all on her own.

The Best of the Worst: Rainbow Dash's competitive spirit is put to the test when a new pony challenges her to a contest unlike any other. Rainbow Dash faces off against Dishwater Slog in loser-take-all race to finally prove which pony is truly the worst.

So, thoughts? Opinions?

......Is that a pony name? Seriously????

Post by: Ragamuffin on May 29, 2020, 02:28:44 PM: Definitely interested.

I thought the posts on Instagram were suspicious. :biggrin: For those not keeping up, they've been posting what I suspected to be frames of a cartoon, such as this:

It's a terrible name, but I also find it hilarious? Two years ago a friend and I were doing pony design swaps. We gave each other names and had to design a pony based off of it. For one round we did deliberately terrible pony names, such as "Meaty Silk", so this reminds me of that. XD I think it's so bad it's good, unlike pony names I actually hate, like "Pegasus Olsen", or anything that incorporates a horse pun.

Hahaha man I thought the same thing. Then I stopped laughing and thought about it... if the pony is just truly a crappy-attitude piece of crap bully or something then the name fits... at least for how the general theme of the show seems to be taking :lol:

Post by: tailrustedtealeaf on June 03, 2020, 06:02:18 PM: We've had four more since then!

Cute-pocalypse Meow: As Pinkie Pie practices for the Royal Jelly Juggernaut, Fluttershy makes an adorable new friend with a dark sense of humor. Fluttershy has to muster all of her cuteness to protect her friends from Bubbles' dark side.

How Applejack Got Her Hat Back: Applejack finds herself in the midst of an identity crisis when her signature hat becomes a city-wide fashion craze. Applejack joins a group of alternative ponies in the hopes finding a new style to replace her old look.

Bad Thing No. 3: Rarity tries to get rid of her bad luck before it can ruin her relationship with a new friend. As Rarity continues to deal with her bad luck, she receives some much-needed advice from an unexpected source: herself.

Pinkie Pie: Hyper-Helper: Pinkie Pie struggles to help out her friends while preparing for the final round of the Royal Jelly Juggernaut. As Pinkie Pie enters the final round of the final round of the Royal Jelly Juggernaut, the other ponies rally behind her.

I feel like “Bad Thing No. 3” is the probably going to be the same lesson as “It Isn’t The Mane Thing About You”. I mean, I’m not a writer, but here’s how I see it going down: Rarity learns that her bad luck is a bad luck thing for sure. But that downs mean she can’t make the most of it, and still shine.

Post by: Ragamuffin on June 03, 2020, 07:24:46 PM: Not sure about the quality of the show itself, but at least the synopses seem more interesting than late FiM episodes in my opinion. XD

I guess we'll see how it all ends up soon enough...
Title: Re: Pony life: two episodes announced
Post by: tailrustedtealeaf on June 04, 2020, 07:53:04 AM: Four more episode titles, no synopsi:
The Trial Less Trotten
Death of a Sales-Pony
Bighoof Walking
The Fluttershy Effect

I'm seeing quite a few people say that these are five minute shorts...what??? Where are they pulling that from?

How could I forget Elbow Grease!! That's another one of my least favourite pony names! At least Dishwater Slog is funny and I imagine it would be a fitting name for his character. But "Elbow Grease" is a pink prim-and-proper fancy pants crystal pony with a fleur-de-lis Cutie Mark! How does that make sense?!

What!!!

I knew blind bag names got really stupid near the end ("Dane Tee Dove" anyone?), but Elbow Grease?!?!?!?!?

Post by: tailrustedtealeaf on June 05, 2020, 08:03:04 AM: Maybe her name came from the CCG, where she was a janitor? Not sure which came first.

If this is the case let's not. Take any more names from the CCG.

Post by: PinkieLopBun on June 05, 2020, 04:15:31 PM: Looks like it’s been rescheduled. No mention of it in Discovery Family’s June highlights, and Zap2it now has Rainbow Rocks airing at the time it was supposed to air next weekend.
Title: Re: Pony life: two episodes announced
Post by: tailrustedtealeaf on June 09, 2020, 09:13:46 AM: Treehouse should be airing it on June 21st.

You gotta work hard to be rich. Even if you come from a rich family you hafta put in a lot of elbow grease if you wanna keep up that lifestyle. Its still an awful name.
