Talk:My Little Pony Best Gift Ever/@comment-36700661-20181028095856

Oh my gosh! This was the most awesome episode ever! Hasbro has really outdone themselves this time! They make a Mane-6-sans-Starlight episode, featuring an in-character Discord, Flim and Flam, an Applejack-and-Fluttershy-twosome mission, and don't even mention the School of Friendship or any of the Season 8 characters at all!

I've got to admit, I didn't even expect them to put Discord in, let alone Flim and Flam! Hasbro has really impressed me this time! It was a little weird to hear Flim and Discord say the word "awesome", although I know they were just imitating Rainbow, and besides, who am I to complain? They remembered to put Flim and Flam back in character and remembered to have AJ and Fluttershy handle them! The parts where they hug Fluttershy and ruffle Applejack's mane and just zip from here to there and talk simultaneously and super-fast is exactly what we expect from Flim and Flam! And, to top if off, Friendship University was not even mentioned! We can just pretend it never happened, considering the Flim and Flam we know are back!

The reindeer were totally awesome, too, how one of them spoke simultaneously with Pinkie, and how they flew round the castle at the end. And the "mysterious gift" thing was great, with the ingredients stopping the pudding, and Discord making a plan to have Fluttershy as the hero. I love hidden twists like that. And it was great to see Rainbow Dash and Discord working together as friends, as Rainbow Dash has always liked Discord the least out of the Mane 6.

And I love how Discord is part of the Mane 6's closest friend group again, like he was in Twilight's Kingdom, back in the good old days! The Fluttershy/Discord hugs were super adorable too, and the hug with the snow monster and all the ponies at the end, and seeing all the characters' Hearth's Warmings. I do kind of wish they had made Flim and Flam exchange gifts instead of just glance at each other, though.

-FLIM: Happy Hearth's Warming, brother. -FLAM: Happy Hearth's Warming, brother. -(Exchange dolls.) -DOLLS: The more money you spend, the more you make your family happy! -(Flim and Flam hug.)

That would have been really cute, since everypony but them got a happy ending in the episode, but I'm not going to complain.

To think I doubted Hasbro just because of a bad season! My opinion of them has definitely gone up since watching ''Best Gift Ever! ''This sounds cheesy, but one thing I have to say about that holiday special is:

THAT'S the MLP we know, love and missed!
