Both involve three little girls trying to hook up their favorite female teacher with a male relative. The major differences are that no potions were needed in PPG, but the horror of the love interfering with daily life became a reality, rather than a possibility like it was in MLP. It was interesting to compare.<br /><br />Your review was better this week, as it was less summarizing. One complaint, though, is that in the beginning you said this wasn't one of the best episodes of the season, and while I agree, you never really said why. Was it because of the ending? If so, it would be somewhat hypocritical of you to take off for the ending being simple when at the beginning you praised the show for staying simple. If that wasn't it, please explain further.<br /><br />Also, the bottom image is broken for me. :[Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1106648781852702786.post-47072309549930075952012-02-12T21:49:42.098+00:002012-02-12T21:49:42.098+00:00It actually was my intention to do so ^_^; Thank y...It actually was my intention to do so ^_^; Thank you for catching it.<br /><br />Thanks a bunch for your comments too!

They only brought up stallions during the song crushing that almost impossible hope. It is not like a child's television show in America would risk saying that homogendered relationships are possible or normal, as in okay. This is especially true do to the significant number of parents worried that gays are trying to convert their children to their gay lifestyle. <br /><br />You were right to point out Megan McCarthy's ability to write story endings. I love this episodes ending because of the whole "why do I look like I am getting married in a bottom of a pit?"<br /><br />I am glad your episode response graph shows that love covers the whole spectrum of quality, though that was probably not your intent.Eric J.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10600051893118307721noreply@blogger.com
