Talk:Grannies Gone Wild/@comment-26855152-20180416185404

Watched this way later than I usually watch episodes, and I was not disappointed. I loved it! Rainbow Dash was great here and I love how she's being pulled out of her "comfort zone" (in quotes because can you even call it that?) and trying to do the opposite of what she usually does. This is the most adventurous, motivational pony ever being told to keep old people from overexerting themselves and getting too excited. It was a really nice moment when she was given the title of Honorary Golden Horseshoe Gal (amazing reference right there). I wonder if "Mane 6 member struggles with balancing workload with personal life" is going to be a trend now that they have the School on top of all their regular jobs, plus the occasional saving the world. If so... well, yeah, I'm totally down for it!

Anyway, the episode was hilarious and made me laugh at many bits. The grannies were a delight, and honestly some of the stuff they did is going on my list of things I can never unsee. I actually enjoyed Applejack's role here. I hear people complaining that she's gone back to overprotective mode but I'm not bothered by it! It's a part of her character and I'm glad it was actually used in a fun way ("Do I even have to say anything?" was my favorite). Also yay, Trixie's dad!

Overall, it was a boatload of fun and the moral of the story is that I should never wait so long to watch an episode because usually walls of text like these are the result.
