We ❤ Ponies Mare-A-Thon on The Hub



The votes are now available for the final twenty episodes of The Hub's "We Ponies" Mare-A-Thon.  We narrowed it down for them here on EQD,  and now it's time to decide on what actually ends up on the channel. 

Sorry it's a bit late, we wanted the official banner!  There are plenty of days left to vote though.  Head on over to this page  and pick all of your favorite episodes.  The Hub will be airing the top picks in a Mare-athon on the 11th of February starting at 6:00 AM Est.  You can vote once a day, so go nuts!

The got the pictures for "Family Appreciation Day" and "Hearth's Warming Eve" mixed up, so careful which you vote for.

Dashyy said...

the labels for hearth's warming eve and family appreciation day are reversed....

Mattatatta said...

The clips for Family Appreciation Day and Hearth's Warming Eve have been switched with eachother.

Do I win something for detecting this?

Sebastian said...

I noticed they have the thumbnails for Family Appreciation Day and Hearth's Warming Eve mixed up.

So...they might air "The Return of Harmony, part 1" but not part 2. Huh.

Octavia said...

Of course it's going to be mostly Bronies voting on this. :P

PaladinDrakkenwolf said...

Ugh, two more weeks, TWO more weeks!

Mattatatta said...

That's a nice post header, is there a higher-res one floating around?

PurePegasus said...

If you scroll down to the very bottom of the voting page you can see that the episode names for "Family Appreciation Day" and "Hearth's Warming Eve" are switched. lol

Avohkah Tamer said...

It's really too bad The Last Roundup isn't on there... That's probably my new favorite Season 2 episode.

I made a song with the girly sound effects! I FEEL ACCOMPLISHED!

Soapy5 said...

so much pony! I actually had a hard time deciding where to put the last 5 votes

Kheytoo said...

I like how a majority of the comments talk about hearths warming and family appreciation.

ponydoraprancypants said...

Please give Rarity's episodes some love, folks.

8bitbleepbleep said...

Vote once a day? No way I'm gonna keep that up

5 dollars on Mysterious Mare Do Well getting most votes by a landslide

Jimperator said...

Voted! Gonna be an aweaome mare-a-thon.

AFBlue said...

So... 6 AM EST, so 3 AM PST. Thanks, I guess, Hub. Reruns of Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader are much better things to put at normal human wakefulness hours than ponies.

Snark aside, I love that they reached out to the community so much for this. It really speaks volumes to how awesome the two-way on this show is.

Pegasus Rescue Brigade said...

I noticed that if you click on the thumbnails to bring up a video clip, if also gives a short description. The one for the return of Harmony Part 1 uses the word for Discord's species.

Does this mean "Dragonokis" is the 'official' spelling of that horrible word, or are the people who make this site just as clueless as we are?

Voting!

Anthony S. said...

They got Family Appreciation Day and Hearth's Warming Eve mixed up?

Justin said...

Ten votes a day? Oh I will go nuts!

Yellow 13 said...

Once a day? Why...

Well, off to vote.

abronylikeyou said...

I voted for these episodes, and here is why:

Lesson Zero (seriously, you can't go wrong with this episode)
Suited for Success (20% cooler)
Sonic Rainboom (best episode in S1 imo)
Green Isn't Your Color (da magiks)
The Best Night Ever (the dream that i've been waiting, to fly with those great ponies, etc...)
Dragonshy (i love watching this episode on Filly for some reason)
Luna Eclipsed (The Royal Canterlot voice, Luna, etc...)
May the Best Pet Win (Rainbow Dash)
The Mysterious Mare Do Well (Rainbow Dash)
Hearth's Warming Eve (Equestrian National Anthem at the end of the episode, Equestrian History, and Earth!)

Dͪ͊ͦḮ̘ͯS̔̐̓C̹̔Ò͓͙̫R̀͠͞D͙̫ said...

soo...The Return of Harmony Part 1... but not Part 2... Ok...

Suroguner said...

somepony want to notify hasbro/ the Hub that they ahve the clips for Family Appreciation day and Hearth's warming eve swapped?

ShadowBrony said...

Adobe flash player is required

......darn iPod;(

Pyrobug said...

Whew, it was tough to choose, but I finally chose my 10. ...wait, I don't get HUB.

Jay6 said...

Well, I know what my 10 are. :3

rainbows said...

This is MUCH better. 10 votes a day!

Senior Waffles said...

Yeah, kind of odd that they would just do Return of Harmony Part 1 but not Part 2. Each is an awesome episode by itself but you really need both of them together.

Though I admit, I let my Rarity bias get the best of me and so I voted for all the Rarity centered episodes.

You know what, I don't care what people say, I freaking loved Mare-do-Well. One of my votes shall go to it.

Bootsa said...

I am way too excited by the little sound effects that play when you hover over things on the vote page.

This is likely a sign I need to go to sleep.

Yellow 13 said...

Well, had to make some tough decisions, but narrowed it down to ten. I love the little bell noise that plays when you scroll over a clip.

And didn't Mare Do Well get thrown out because of the raid?

Feeling Pinkie Keen
Winter Wrap Up

BTW, anyone noticed the clips for...

Everypony, "Yes! We know!"

Brian said...

@Senior Waffles

That's because the Hub had ED run a poll to decide which episode would be in this. It wasn't the Hub's decision, it was our decision.

Derek Wolff said...

Did anyone else notice "Family Appreciation Day" and "Hearth's Warming Eve" have switched images?

Krizak said...

Looking at the old poll result, The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well did get votes thrown out, and did not end up in the top twenty. However, I believe they didn't want both parts of The Return of Harmony up on the poll separarately; instead, if The Return of Harmony ends up in 9th place or higher, it is likely that both parts of The Return of Harmony will get in along with eight stand-alone episodes. With this idea in place, they needed a twentieth episode to fill in the hole, and Mare-Do-Well still had a good chunk of votes even after a lot were removed due to 4chan's interference.

Graveheart said...

@Derek Wolff

I did, and here's hoping my vote is going towards Hearth's Warming Eve and not Family Appreciation Day. @.@

Krinsy said...

only ten votes? i want a few more!

BakedBad said...

Her's how I voted and why.

Dragonshy 1st (Big adventure, The Stare)
Suited for Success 4th (Rarity sings, 20% cooler)
Green Isn't Your Color 5th (Pinkie Pie Swears, Fluttershy 's frustration)
Party of One 6th (Pinky sings, loses it)
Best Night Ever 7th (Main six Sing, Fluttershy loses it)
Winter Wrap Up 10th (Twilight sings, needs hug)
Luna Eclipsed 9th (Nightmare Night, Luna)
Sister Hooves Social 2nd (Rarity's theatrics, Sweetie Belle squeaks)
Sweet and Elite 3rd (Rarity sings, Twilight dances)
Secret of My Excess 8th (If any episode deserve to be part of a Valentines Day mare-a-thon it's this one)

ChrisCola said...

Lesson Zero ('cause)
Bridle Gossip (I find this episode HILARIOUS!)
Green Isn't Your Color (great character episode)
Party of One ('cause again)
Return of Harmony (if they play the first one, they can't not play the second one!)
Dragonshy (another epic episode)
Luna Eclipsed (my last vote and I couldn't decide which episode to pick!)
May the Best Pet Win (lol nice screenshot there Hub, it's like they knew we were gonna see it)
Sweet and Elite (loved this episode! That's about all I can say)
Hearth's Warming Eve ('cause again again)

And that's how Equastria was made :)

Unknown said...

So, The Mysterious Mare Do Well made it on there after all, eh?

ChrisCola said...

*facehoof at spelling fail*

Butlerdidit said...

That doesn't look right, didn't RTH part 2 get more votes than part one?

Jake said...

I hope someone streams this mare a thon. I don't get the Hub on this basic cable package at college. Believe me, I'd sit down at 5 a.m. with a plotload (I'm sorry, I had to make that joke at least once in my brony life) of snacks and watch the whole thing if I was at home on that day.

Yellow 13 said...

I'm sure it will be streaming somewhere, Hearts and Hooves Day airs right afterwards.

MailMareDitzy said...

theres a mistake on the voting board, "parent apreciation day" and "hearths warming eve" are mixed up lol

The Last Nacho said...

Guys, only the thumbnails are mixed up on Family Appreciation Day and Hearth's Warming Eve. When you click them for a video preview, they're fine.

crystalmountain said...

I ❤ ponies, too! And marathons! And don't even get me started on Pony Mare-A-Thons! This is gonna be awesome.

MailMareDitzy said...

a little heads up, incognito works :)

Has anyone else ever noticed that most of the show's best episodes were written by either M.A. Larson or Meghan McCarthy?

Pav Feira said...

My picks:

Dragonshy
Suited for Success
Feeling Pinkie Keen
Sonic Rainboom
Cutie Mark Chronicles
Best Night Ever
Winter Wrap Up
Lesson Zero
Sisterhooves Social
May the Best Pet Win!

Party of One is suspiciously absent, but I was stuck with 11 episodes. So I dropped one that was a shoo-in.

Smashmatt202 said...

I noticed that the video clips for Family Appreciation Day and Hearth's Warming Eve are switched around, and that's a little confusing...

Either way, I voted for:

-Suited for Success
-Sonic Rainboom
-The Cutie Mark Chronicles
-Sisterhooves Social
-May the Best Pet Win
-Sweet and Elite
-Luna Eclipsed
-The Best Night Ever
-Lesson Zero
-Family Appreciation Day (I think)

I hope my favorites get picked! :)

HMorris73 said...

Well anyway these were my votes...

Dragonshy
Sonic Rainboom
The Cutie Mark Chronicles
Party of One
The Return of Harmony
Lesson Zero
Luna Eclipsed
May the Best Pet Win!
Sweet and Elite

silverstar said...

Luna eclipsed was the only one I cared about.

The Best Night Ever
Bridle Gossip
Winter Wrap Up
Sonic Rainboom
The Cutie Mark Chronicles
Dragonshy
The Return of Harmony Part 1
Lesson Zero
Luna Eclipsed

Mint Chip said...

I personally enjoyed Mare Do Well, it was a good lesson. My only gripe is that it was a tad weaker than most of the season 2 stuff, but if judged apart from the whole still a good episode.

Ashfire said...

hey guys! bronytv (http://bronytv.co.cc/) is planning on streaming this marathon!

Ahiam94 said...

So unfair, I won't be able to watch this. I'll be way too busy, It's just not fair!


To make up for it, when I'm not busy, I'm going to WATCH EVERY SINGLE EPISODE...TWICE!!!!!!!

HMorris73 said...

Hm, I'm thinking of replacing May the Best Pet Win! with The Best Night Ever next time...

Jake said...

@Ashfire

Good. I was hoping for this result. Looks like I'll be up at 5 that weekend after the Super Bowl. Valentines Day weekend is actually a really bad weekend for me (lost an uncle to suicide three years ago on the 12th), so watching ponies will definitely help keep my spirits up.

AlexReffand said...

Wait, hold the fuck up. TRoH part I is on there, but NOT part II? Seriously?

AlexReffand said...

Also, just noticed something.

Jeremy said...

My votes and why:

Return of Harmony, part one: DisQord, duh. Seriously though, John De Lancie is badass. He even made reading flight patterns on Breaking Bad compelling.

Green isn't Your Color: "FOREVER!" makes me laugh every single time.

Lesson Zero: Epic Pony Expressions and Twi being creepy. Also Rainbow Nuke

The Best Night Ever: Because things went haywire for the Mane 6. But it turned out okay anyway.

The Cutie Mark Chronicles: I'm a sucker for history lessons.

Hearth's Warming Eve: See above.

The Mysterious Mare Do Well: You mad? Seriously though, I thought it was a fun episode. And it was nice to see Pinkie Sense not just being a one time thing.

Party of One: Epic Pinkie Breakdown

Suited for Success: Anyone that's had to deal with the general public (as either a content creator or even just customer service) will identify with Rarity in this episode.

Luna Eclipsed: The way they portrayed Luna exceeded my wildest expectations.Also Chicken Pie.

Hawklaser said...

I like how they are not showing which ones are ahead.

Also I doubt I will vote for the same set of 10 each day. So many good episodes, and a lot of my later picks are rather up in the air.

shadowfalcon76 said...

Party of one, Luna Eclipsed, and Lesson Zero were on there, so that was three votes automatically claimed.

Sonic Rainboom gets the fourth vote by default as the episode that made me a brony. Gradius FTW!!!

Secret of My Excess was a really damn good episode, Spike gets to be a badass, and was originally aired on my birthday, so it got vote number five.

Feeling Pinkie Keen. It's Pinkie Pie. I absolutely love Pinkie Pie. She stole my heart, and stole my sixth vote.

Sweet and Elite Had some pretty amusing things that it put Rarity through (or more like she put herself through), and Fancy Pants was actually a pretty righteous fellow. Definitely worth vote seven.

Winter Wrap-Up, Suited for Success, and The Best Night Ever all had solid, classic, and sweet songs, therefore they earned votes eight, nine, and ten, barely edging out May the Best Pet Win! at eleventh place.

shadowfalcon76 said...

Also: I don't get The Hub, so I'll have to catch a stream. Oh well. Not like I have anything planned for Single's Awareness Day weekend.

Killsteal_Wolf said...

Seth, if they do another raid on Mare do Well, we can't stop it this time. Why is it still on there?

Mike said...

I'm just happy my list of choices looks a lot like everyone else's: that means there's a good chance I'll see a lot of my favorites. And Mare do Well because 4chan.

ShakeNDake said...

I find it odd that The Hub could mix up Hearths Warming Eve and Family Appreciation Day. And also that they could make the mistake of NOT putting in both parts to a two part episode, maybe they're bundled? MY PICS:
The Return of Harmony: Part 1 (and 2?)
Feeling Pinkie Keen
Sisterhooves Social
The Cutie Mark Cronicles
Party of One
Sonic Rainboom
Winter Wrap Up (It IS winter after all)
May the Best Pet Win
Secret of My Excess
Family Appreciation Day
Though I would have picked A Friend in Deed, but that wasn't out yet...:(

Ropera said...

6:00 AM? That's too early for me.I'll still vote though.

pmcollectorboy said...

Not enough love for Sweet and Elite, I see.

Is it not working for anyone else?

waffle911 said...

@Pegasus Rescue Brigade Yeah, they are clueless about the actual spelling, which is "draconequus", a portmanteau of the Greek and Latin roots for dragon and horse, respectively.

Flizzick said...

Huh, I thought Seth said Mare Do Well was disqualified for the pseudo votes it got.

PinkieDash said...

wow wird glitch. i voted harth's warming eve and it put in the vido for famaly apritiation day but had the right episode name... i hope it voted corectly.

UnhelpfulHypocrite said...

Am I the only one who considers Bridle Gossip one of the funniest episodes? I haven't seen it on many lists, and I have to say, that episode single-handedly convinced me that FiM was worth watching for its comedy (incidentally, Sonic Rainboom was what cemented FiM as my favorite show). Flutterguy kills me every time.

lTofSmitia said...

They spelled Discord's species name horribly wrong in the description for the Return of Harmony clip, "Dragonokis". It's "Draconequus", which is the Latin words Draco (dragon) and Equus (horse) put together.
