At first Gabbi came off to me as a little annoying, but as the episode continued, it quickly wore off as I realized her eagerness to please and help others. It was so addicting. However this is the first episode I think of season 6 that actually chocked me up. I teared up a bit at the moral I was seeing. That sometimes we can't always get what we want, no matter how hard we may work at it. Sometimes it's just out of our hands whether by our physical or mental abilities. It brought me back to when I was a child and wanting to be a Palentologiest... but realized I wasn't strong enough in science to cut it. Or... I had wish that I could be just as pretty and talented as ahem... one of the Spice Girls? *blushes* But like my mother used to say "Be yourself, everyone else is taken." ^^

I think this episode beat out Gauntlet of Fire as my favorite for the season. I love the trend they're keeping up of making friends with members of other species, what with Ember, Thorax and now Gabby. Gabby is just so lovable, I wanted to see her get a cutie mark even though I knew it wasn't gonna happen. Plus, I think the title of this episode gave the episode a deeper meaning. It made me think of a child with a life-threatening illness the whole time and it made me think this would be a good moral for anybody who wants to be a physician of any kind. Giving Gabby a fake cutie mark is kind of like putting a wig on a chemotherapy patient. It may not be real, but it makes them feel better. Fantastic episode. I'd gladly welcome Gabby back for another episode.

A definite follow up in their next step in their journey and the song and story was relatable as well, even though Gabby didn't get what she wanted she got her own Cutie Mark Crusader badge and became a new member as she found that helping others is her talent, a great story with a well deserving payoff.

I was on a similar train of thought as you when I saw this episode. I wasn't entirely sure how the episode would end, since I could feel a lot of story/lesson potential in both major possibilities. I enjoyed Gabby's character quite a bit, but I was also genre-savvy enough to tell that not everyone would like her. That being said, an interesting question popped into my mind while watching this episode; what makes ponies so special? Why are ponies seemingly the only ones that have some seemingly-other-worldly-force give them a literal/symbolic sign of what their purpose in life is? That, in conjunction with the fact that the Mane 6 and just about everyone else that's played a part in saving the world is a type of pony, it almost feels like there's actually someone or something in or beyond their world that intentionally decided how this would work... I hope someone on the writing staff explores this later.

One aspect of this episode that I have heard touched on before was the aspect that caught my attention the most: the fact that the writers are handling Scootaloo's "disability" in the best way possible. I honestly think she is the most mature of the CMC. The proof is in the way that she is the one to persuade Applebloom and Sweetie Belle into agreeing to help Gabby despite the possibilities of it working is slim to none. "I know what it's like to want something that's out of reach. But just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it can't!" She knows that most pegasi can fly by her age, but despite the fact that she can't doesn't mean that she isn't going to stop trying! That scene alone marks her as not only the best CMC but one of the best ponies in the show itself. Side note: If given the choice I would adopt Scootaloo in a heartbeat. No ifs, ands, or buts!
@meemietheeevee44008 жыл бұрын
At the first scene, one thought came into my mind: “Cutie Mark Counselors.” That definitely had me thinking of what the Cutie Mark Crusaders should do to help someone find their cutie mark from a psychological standpoint. The Cutie Mark Crusaders have consistently tried to find someone their cutie mark by having them try everything where that really doesn’t seem like the way to go. There are millions of things to try and they can’t possibly try it all. I think taking a personality inventory would help narrow it down much faster. Instead of having Gabby try things like baseball, baking, or brewing with a cauldron, connect it to her already present skill set which means having her do a LOT of community service. Instead of having her try out every single thing and just waiting for the cutie mark to appear, the CMC should have been observing, trying to find a link between each trial and determining her overall personality. They did discover this in the end, of course, but not before we were able to call it out exactly what her special talent was the whole episode.

loved the episode, one of the best this season! And it really shows how much the CMC have grown! I mean characterwise they became so adult, they actually thought about consequences, went to Twilight first to check on some facts concerning the Cutie Mark, they even drew parallels to their own life when Sccotaloo sais how she kbnows how it feels to aspire somehting you can't get! So yeah, bravo. I think my 3rd favourite of the season (1. Saddle Row revoiew, 2. Dungeaons and discord)
@matthewpalumbo39348 жыл бұрын
This was my favorite episode of the season so far. I can also fully understand why they wanted to wait to air it. The notable time passage does well in showing what happened between the events of "On Your Marks" and now.The CMC also seem to be maturing a bit more. The way Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle talked in regard to Gabby's goal was more realistic, but kind, while it felt like Scootaloo certainly had a bit more investment. This was well noticed when she mentioned, after promising Gabby she'd get a mark, Scoots told her friends how she knew what it was like to want something, not be sure if it is possible, but not giving up on it.The resolution was also a wonderful surprise. It showed the thoughtful creativity of the CMC while making Gabby feel all proud to be the first-ever Griffon Crusader.As it is very unlikely the show will ever acknowledge Scoots as a "Ony with Special Needs", I'm glad we can at least see tales, like Gabby's, where a workaround is found that can cope with a situation.

My favorite part of this one is how the Crusaders were essentially confronted with their own past: Unbounded enthusiasm paired with a complete misunderstanding of how cutie marks actually work.

Personally, I'm interested to see what Griffonstone is starting to look like. A lot of aspects of pony culture are starting to take root there, after generations of having _no_ culture at all. Having lost their national identity and not really found a new one, most griffons are bitter and selfish, experiencing no magic of friendship. But evidently, that doesn't mean they _can't_, and we have a few griffons of the younger generation starting to adopt some elements of pony culture. That's got to be changing the feel of the place. And, before she even turned up in the episode, I was asking 'What about Zecora?' They're very clear that zebras are not ponies, and Twilight said no non-pony has ever gotten a cutie mark. So what is that mark on her flank? A tattoo? If zebras don't get cutie marks, why would they even have a cultural custom of putting a tattoo in that spot? WHEN are we going to go to Zecora's homeland and have ANY questions about her people answered?

Everything about the Crusaders' attempts to help Gabby reminded me about their attempts to get their own cutie marks, together with her impatience to get one.

But I like the lesson here, that you can continue onward even if your precise goal seems impossible. Gabby's optimism really _is_ contagious. I wonder if we'll ever actually meet Gabby Gums?

I think the parents in the beginning don't get enough love or attention. You can see that they're unsettled by their child's cutie mark, and nervous about the pirate implications. Yet instead of making her feel like her cutie mark is wrong or something to be ashamed of, or forcing her to 'choose' another destiny, they buy her pirate clothes. They might not agree with their child's path in life, but they were willing to support her the entire way despite that. Awesome parenting

CPCoulterTweedles true, that is good parenting.

She's just lovely! ^_^ The fact she painted on her cutie mark just to cheer up the Crusaders was a nice surprise, and very sweet of her. It fit perfectly with her character, and I'd personally love to see an episode with her and Thorax. I was already drawing comparisons with those two as both are characters who felt like they didn't fit in amongst their kind. I wonder if this will be a running theme? Will we see a third character who doesn't fit with their kind? Or maybe an old villain (Tirek) return, who fits in nowhere?

She's a fun addition, and your video did get me thinking, what's next for Gabby? What's going to happen to Griffonstone now that Gabby, and possibly Gilda, are slowly going against their species status quo? Will Gabby be influential enough to make a difference~? And what does it mean for the CMC too? I love their new role and what it means, and the story and especially the lesson are great, and the latter is quite inspiring too. I deeply enjoyed it over all, and I'm glad the staff put more emphasis on story more than laughs too. Great job~

at the end I kind of hoped when they gave her the wood cutie mark that the realization of her purpose would actually trigger a cutie marks appearance. I know it would seem a bit odd but it would honestly lead to some interesting questions about how cutie marks work. is the only reason only ponies have them that the other races don't generally realize their special talent? is this the real purpose of the CMC to help the other races of equestria find their marks? and many other points of speculation would have been brought up had Gaby earned a mark. I still loved the episode and the moral is that even if it isn't what you expected finding your talent can still be reward enough on its own. I hope we get a follow up on this with more detail on what cutie marks are and where they come from and why only ponies get them.

If we think of the series as a documentary of important past events, similar to how the series started as a documentary of the clash between the two sisters, then the CMC might be important because of who they become, and so the story is a means of showing what led them to greatness, starting with when the CMC was first founded. Diamond Tiara started off as their greatest antagonist, until they helped reveal what she could become. Assuming she continues moving up in life, with her talent of convincing anyone to do anything, she would become a fantastic political ally. Gabriella enters the story wanting to know her purpose, but her true goal is to bring friendship into the griffon kingdom. With her ability to do anything in order to help others, I would not be surprised if she becomes Queen Gabriella in a future episode. It's the most efficient way to turn a society around, at least for someone as gifted as her.

They are the most likely candidate as they are/most likely to be part pony. It would be nice to see how a society other than ponies react to getting their cutie marks and how it affects them.

Of course, the real question is, if they plucked all the feathers off, would they actually see the mark Gabby has? I mean, are they on a pony's fur or etched directly to the skin and thus each hair strand takes the form of the mark in full on their flanks? Still, it does give me a excellent new character for Fallout to take out as a 'Ghoul Griffon'.

Also, this only shows the CMC is branching out and gaining popularity over all. The more followers they get, the more customers come in for consultation until it becomes a worldwide corporation of sorts.

I wasn't a fan of Gabby at first, cause she came off as a ball of Pinkie Pie energy but I did end up liking her cause she's really cute and a sweet genuine griffin. A great episode!

Gabby is a wonderful character, and a great in-between to bring back Gilda and her progression on helping the Griffons find the Magic of Friendship. I know the new Gilda wouldn't turn away Gabby so easily, despite being reminded of Pinkie Pie, because it WAS Pinkie Pie who helped her rekindle her friendship with Dash and inspired her to attempt to make friends with other Griffons. I would even be waiting until S7 for this episode to come out!

Ya know, after watching this episode at least twice, not only is Gabby among my favorite non-pony characters, but I am curious to see if the CMC will not only gain more non-pony members, but also I wonder if we'll see more of Gabby later. I haven't watched your video on the finale yet, but I really do want more of the new characters we have seen thus far in Season 6. It drives me nuts when a show introduces a character, only for it to be a one and done deal.

Almost Pinkey Pie level? Well I think she is a bit more hyperactive than Pinky Pie. Well let's them meet and we will find out :D

I've got a friend named Gabriella, but she prefers Gaby (she insists that there's one b) of course. Griffin Gab(b)y reminded me a lot of her up til the point where she helped people. The Gaby I kno is a lot more self-centered, stubborn, usually asks for help instead of doing things herself (not really learning how in the process), complains when things aren't done the way she wants them, and a lot more of a mooch. Griffin Gab(b)y would potentially become an enabler for her. There was an incident where she spent an entire (art) class period asking someone to get her a chair, then blamed everyone else for her not getting any work done, but the next class she got her own chair so at the very least she can learn.

In truth, I loved Gabby's character. Her happy demeanor, her optimism, her helpfulness. All of these traits just felt like a breath of fresh air to me mainly because she is a griffon. I will admit that ever since the Griffonstone episode my opinion on griffons in MLP was a little wavering between a little anger and sadness since the place just seems like a depressing place, not to mentions that all of the griffons seemed similar to some of the unfriendly people in my town who only care about themselves. Yet, if a sour place like Griffonstone can produce a young Griffon like Gabriela then there may be hope in it's citizens making the same change Gilda did.

I think something big is going to happen soon. With the show so far is slowly making friend with different types of species. i feel that the show are going to have all the different kinds of characters need to come together. To defeat something of a bigger threat in order to stop it.

I'm just scared for the pony who may end up with the 8 pointed symbol of chaos, or the red 'I' of the inquisition or the skull and wings of the Commissariat. Don't know how that would end up effecting their lives? But it would definitely lead to a good but bloody story.

I love Gabby. She's cute, outgoing, and near Frisk-level of determination. The ending was very sweet as well as it truly marks (no pun intended) her friendship with the CMC. I hope we get to see her again. If we do, I hope Gilda and Greta are with her. The latter because I want to hear her speak.

Dude, remember that the finale is going to have Starlight bring in her own ponies to fight evil? A Starlight's Six, if you will. What if Gabby will become a part of that six?

What kind of Pony would have a Cutie Mark involving a Skull and bones? The answer: Just be glad neither Crossbones nor the Punisher has yet to enter Equestria. I'd also include Red Skull, but let's be honest here, people, his would be just the symbol of HYDRA tattooed on his flank.
