Okay, that was actually a pretty cute episode.  I am glad I watched it.  8/10.

I have to wonder--if you can already fly at Mach 6 and cause frigging sonic booms, why all this fuss over a roller coaster?  I mean, yeah, yeah, peer pressure and all that, but, still... seems--I dunno-- anticlimactic.   Also, if you look real close, you can see Soarin' getting ready to hurl in that photo.  He's lucky he didn't get his Wonderbolt nickname over that incident.


This reminds me of the Golden Girls.
Yes! if I didn't know Rue McClanahan (Blanche) had passed, I'd swear she was the voice of the old gal trying to flirt with the bellboy.

I think the reason these grandmares book these vacations is to get away from being babied by relatives and all this nonsense about naps and soft food and avoiding excitement. Applejack means well, but I don't think she realizes this.

Bless their hearts.  I figure these gals must have a couple of dozen kids between the lot of them ... and, well, you know they got here somehow.  Just because there's a few thousand miles on the odometer doesn't mean the motor's stopped running, y'know.

That male pony magician I am willing to bet is Trixie's father.  He's the same color and even looks the same!
He also uses the same lame "disappearing" act.  He could be some relative of Trixie's-- maybe the one who taught her all her best tricks.

Also, Vinyl Scratch is working the hotel dance club deejay booth.  She must have to do a powerful lot of commuting if she can work both big venues like a Las Pegasus hotel and Pinkie's private parties down in Ponyville.

This episode was fun. It could have easily gone wrong, but I feel like Dash was in character and the gags were really nice. It certainly wasn't what I expected, but I'm glad it wasn't.

I didn't notice the references, those are cool!  I also thought of the Golden Girls a lot when watching all the old gran-nannies!  I feel this episode could have gone down a path of horribleness, but it strafed away from it pretty good.  Rainbow Dash legitimately was trying to be a good pony and do the right thing, even if she was a little dumb about it at times.... but she isn't the brightest anyways. ;)  Overall I would say it was an enjoyable episode and it was nice to see the Grannies be different then their usual selves.

8/10

@Kiwi
I think this episode was a pleasant suprise. Rainbow's interactions with the grans, the grans' other side we don't really see, the references, and the biggest being

Soda mentioned that as well that it was probably Trixie's dad.  I read her live reaction and she thought that right away.  I didn't think that when I first saw him, it didn't occur to me, but when they appeared on stage it hit me.

Some one asked Jim after the episode aired. His response just raised more questions.

I agree that Dash made a few epic faces in the episode... But I can't help but really love this one. It's so simple, yet... so freakin' adorable.



One guy on Derpibooru says she has an adorable snout. And they're right. X3

I thought it was a good episode and more strong then some others this season.  But it still just lacked a bit to me.  It was definitely more complete then the season opener which I thought was really not that good.  7/10.

7/10 for one of the better episodes involving Rainbow Dash.
