Talk:Father Knows Beast/@comment-1658827-20180902180908

So...this was basically just Dragon Quest all over again. Along with, as always, just trashing Spike. Again. Like, I was praying my heart out for the episode to PLEASE not let Sludge be a liar and to just have him be a bad father. For the show to be so cruel as to make him lie about being Spike's father just to use him was so detestable. I get the message they were going for, but...like in Dragon Quest, it wasn't used properly there, and...it was SLIGHTLY better here, but not much. Twilight and Smolder were kinda the best parts of the episode, as both of them are really awesome to Spike, which was heartfelt to see. I really didn't like the song, Sludge was detestable, the story was just slightly better than Dragon Quest, and it really wasn't that good. But, it isn't the worst of the season. I would say middle-of-the-road, thanks to Twilight and Smolder. Ready for the finale now! Let's see what an evil filly can do as a season's finale antagonist for once!
