Talk:Where the Apple Lies/@comment-24864975-20161012025644

About time I reviewed this one.

Boy, out of all the cringy episodes in this series, this was probably the cringiest! Not in a bad way, mind you; heck, a lot of that cringe was for comedy. I kinda compare Applejack's efforts to cover up her lie to the modern Disney channel and Nickelodeon shows, as many episodes in those shows focus on the characters trying to do just that, only for the truth to finally be revealed in the end. I found it very interesting that Big Mac was a real talker in his younger years, compared to how silent he is now, and I can only imagine how that could've happened, starting from this very incident. I have to feel bad for Applejack, actually feeling like she has to tell some lies in order to keep things right, like making sure that Barnyard Bargains doesn't cut off ties with Sweet Apple Acres. I also feel bad for Spoiled Rich, having her maiden name be Spoiled Milk. Seriously, her parents were clearly worse to her than she was to Diamond Tiara. Speaking of which, I notice that Filthy and Spoiled hadn't been married yet, so Diamond Tiara wasn't yet born, so, just based on logic, Apple Bloom shouldn't be either, so the lack of even a mention of the parents is pretty frustrating. But aside from that, I thought that this was a fun episode, with all the shenanigans, the Easter eggs in the background, and the build-up on the characters. Let's just hope that the writers don't shy away from another opportunity to give some insight on the Apple parents.
