Yes! Applejack!

Sounds like a TNG Episode.
Twilight - Captain Picard
Fluttershy - Troi (not assertive enough to be Crusher)
Applejack - Riker
Rainbow Dash - Worf
Rarity - Dr. Crusher
Pinkie Pie - Data (drives the plot through bizarre antics)

My body, etc.

I've been hoping for more Applejack-centric things.

Humans = Litigators

Ponies = Mediators

Ponies demonstratin' the logic of friendship.

Finally, a chance to merge FiM and BUSI 2211.

Thank god. I'm tired of how often Cutie Mark Crusaders episodes are popping up. Two in a row? I mean really. I don't even like them much.

I had to snicker at "apple-loosans."

MasterMask said...

Why am I ending my sentences with?!

That title needs to stop being misleading.

There was a Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of Equestria
Stolen from Zebraland, brought to Equestria
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

I mean it, when I analyze the stench
To me, it makes a lot of sense
How the Dreadlock Buffalo was the Buffalo Soldier
And he was taken from Zebraland, brought to Equestria
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Buffalo
Buffalo Soldier, in the heart of Equestria

If you know your history
Then you would know where you coming from
Then you wouldn't have to ask me
"Who the heck do I think I am?"

I'm just a Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of Equestria
Stolen from Zebrland, brought to Equestria
Said he was fighting on arrival
Fighting for survival
Said he was a Buffalo Soldier
Win the war for Equestria

Last Applejack episode was 4.

That's a big jump from Applebuck Season.
Hopefully we'll see more of Applejack's farm in the episode.

I do not want to rush into conclusions, but would it not another episode on xenophobia as one with the famous song of Pinkie Pie performed by FlutterGuy?

I hope this one doesn't put Applejack in the wrong. I would hate to see her having to apologize for something stupid.
And maybe more Big Mac, but I doubt it.

"Apple-Loosans"
My lust for Puns is never disappointed from this show

@Sergeant Sprinkles: World's Greatest Party Clown

Totally agreed. This needs to be the episode where Applejack is in the right, and the other ponies be hatin'.

You never know, this could be about Applebloom going for her buffalo kill cutie mark.

I think none of the CMC will get their cutie marks at least until the end of the season. But yeah, you never know...

How this will play out:

Apple-loosans: descendants of white settlers that stole land from the Indians

Buffalo: Indians

I dunno, I'm pretty sure any attempt to portray buffalo as "Native Equestrians" would open up a ****-storm that Hasbro has no interest in seeing. Political correctness in My Little Pony? It doesn't sell toys, so it ain't gonna happen.

MFW the Buffalo open a giant casino right next to the Apple farm.

@Naxts
FM Radio station frequencies typically end on an odd-number decimal (in the U.S. at least), so a more apt station would be Magic 95.7 (which used to be a real radio station in 'downeast' Maine until they changed formats and became "I-95" like the interstate highway).

@Naxts Not punny enough. Needs to be Bob Marely.

Fanloser said...

@Anonymous I mostly agree with you. I highly that either Hasbro or Lauren Faust would make an episode like that for one, the reason you just mentioned and two, it MAY require the fact that they've already forgotten a very similar lesson they've learned from the debut episode of Zacora.

APPLE-LOOSIANS

just when i think i'm falling out of love with this show. jesus christ.

anyone want to place a bet on who figures out the moral first? surely appleblossom and twilight can't be the only non-racists again.

Wolf Nanaki said...

Here's to hoping we get to see Big Macintosh finally do something awesome.

Where's my Pinkie episode damn it! And I mean real one, not like Feeling Pinkie Keen which was more of a Twilight's episode.

Anonymous said...

Maybe the buffaloes will be the jerks and invade Sweet Apple Acres or something.

brianblackberry said...

I worry that it may be some "Indians vs. the Ranchers" story. I hope they don't make Applejack in the wrong again, echoing a couple of the commenters above. Still, the writers for the show have been pretty good, so I don't want to jump to conclusions.

Also, yay Applejack episode! Needed to get that fanboy part out. :P

Would be hilarious if the Buffaloes tried to get the land by claiming they originally lived on the land thousands or hundreds of years ago.

So many unfortunate implications!

Retl said...

I don't remember seeing this post at all before.

FRICK YEAH, APPLEJACK EP! I'm probably going to enjoy that episode when it rolls around.

If the writers have done their sociology homework, they might actually be able to pull off a "native americans vs settlers," allegory that doesn't put people off. However, I'm betting that any references are going to be thrown in under the radar.

BUFFALOS!!

COME AND CLAIM THEM!!!

Anonymous said...

What are you thinking Hasbro? Why are you flagging it on youtube? The show itself is NOT where you make the money for crying out loud.

RazorFox said...

Am I the only one who noticed the glaring plot hole of how they lost Pinkie Pie? The buffalo come and steal the caboose containing Bloomberg and Spike, with Rainbow Dash giving chase. The other five ponies are still on board the train, with Pinkie Pie clearly visible amongst them.

Then, when they arrive at the station, Pinkie Pie's mysteriously disappeared. Pinkie Pie doesn't strike me as the kind of pony who would jump from a fast-moving train. Did the train make another stop before reaching Appleloosa? Did she wander off into a different train car? How on earth do you lose Pinkie Pie?
