    2. 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)

    9. Humans = Litigators

      Ponies = Mediators

      Ponies demonstratin' the logic of friendship.

      Finally, a chance to merge FiM and BUSI 2211.

    11. 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.

    12. I had to snicker at "apple-loosans."

    13. What's the dispute?!

      Do the Buffalo hate Apples or somthing?!

      Why am I ending my sentences with?!

      I don't know?!

    14. That title needs to stop being misleading.

    15. 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

    17. 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.

    18. 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.

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

    21. @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'.

    22. 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...

    24. How this will play out:

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

      Buffalo: Indians

      EY EY EY WE JUST GOT A REQUEST FROM A CERTAIN DJ SCRATCH TO PLAY "RED RED HOT SAUCE" BY BOB PONLEY. This is Magic 91.6, Friendship is music.

    27. 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.

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

      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).

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

    32. @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.

    33. 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.

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

    35. 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.

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

      ReplyDelete
    37. 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

      ReplyDelete
    38. 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!

      ReplyDelete
    39. 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.

    41. 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.

    42. BUFFALOS!!

      COME AND CLAIM THEM!!!

      ReplyDelete
    43. 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.

      ReplyDelete
    44. 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?
