>Hearts and Hooves dayThis episode should have been dedicated to Shining Armour & Cadence so they don't end up out of fucking nowhere... and this is where they could have hinted at the changelings.
Instead we get a fucking Cheerilee episode, who the fuck wanted a Flower Smiles episode? Bitch wasn't even named Cheerilee back in S1.

Formulaic yes, paper thin no. Winter Wrap Up has great scenes FOR EACH CHARACTER WITHOUT HAVING TO WASTE 21 MINUTES ON JUST A SINGULAR CHARACTER.
THAT WAS THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT OF HAVING 6 MAIN CHARACTERS.
And the thing is there's other shows who do it, like Rescue Rangers, but it's often 4 or 5 characters, sometimes even 7.
