It's annoying in a pony context, because it means things like the Derbyshire/Derpyshire pun don't really work in speech.Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769758118827489093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-37467243611293847022016-08-08T15:11:29.612+01:002016-08-08T15:11:29.612+01:00Why was Cheerilee the cheerleader rather than Pink...Why was Cheerilee the cheerleader rather than Pinkie? So she should be a Cheerileader, of course.<br /><br />This was an average episode for me, though I was plenty annoyed that they asked why the Crusaders didn't speak up. Apple Bloom did nothing BUT speak up! Repeatedly! So, yeah. The oblivious behavior didn't really click with me.<br /><br />It's a long standing problem with MLP, though. They seem to have a problem finding a villain in episodes, so in the absence of that, they just make someone temporarily stupid. Spike gets this all the time. It works in some episodes, but for the most part, it's just frustrating.xjuggernaughtxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286896058684660654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-32323061548471089042016-08-08T15:07:20.606+01:002016-08-08T15:07:20.606+01:00Isn't the British pronunciation something clos...Isn't the British pronunciation something closer to "Darby?"<br />xjuggernaughtxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286896058684660654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-87561660186948971962016-08-08T13:06:22.586+01:002016-08-08T13:06:22.586+01:00Wait, you guys pronounce 'derby' different...Wait, you guys pronounce 'derby' differently?

I love some of the expressions they gave her, and her outfit looked cute.<br /><br />Having given it another watch, the episode is kinda fun once you ignore all the really bad aspects (like the mane 3). And Scootaloo was adorable again.Oilyvalveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424398751383681143noreply@blogger.com
