Talk:Maud Pie (episode)/@comment-24092299-20140317053338

This episode genuinely surprised me. I come to an episode ready to criticize (in depth) but this one was very well done. Not just Maud's stonefaced (no pun intended) personality, but in some of the original humor. Things like Rainbow Dash freaking out when Maud tells her she doesn't like winning, or Maud eating a diamond had me actually laughing, and this show doesn't usually do that. I guess I've just been expecting Josh Haber's cliché, boring, and predictable humor ever since Castle Mane-ia. The biggest and only problem I found was the lack of action when the boulder was about to crush Pinkie - any one of the main six could have saved her. But this flaw didn't make the storyline suck like Power Ponies. Noelle Beneveuti is very creative, and I (can't believe I'm saying this) can't wait for more of her episodes. So find more like her, Hasbro!

9.7/10 (best in season but whatev) P.S. There is no such thing as a perfect episode, so no 10/10's here.
