Holy fucking shit. Season 2 Episode 3: Lesson Zero is one of the funniest things I've seen in quite a while. I was genuinely laughing out loud the whole time. Kris, watch that episode next. It is straight up Looney Tunes on crack.
Twilight's obsessive organizing, her old doll from fillyhood named Smarty Pants, Rainbow Dash using the sonic rainboom to detonate Applejack's old barn in a mushroom cloud, Fluttershy kung fu fighting a grizzly bear, ...no I'm not making this up..., and Twilight delving into a level of insanity that Pinkie Pie in Party of One couldn't even touch, EVERYTHING, is top notch entertainment. Topping it all off? Everypony in Ponyville, including the mayor, get into an epic RIOT.
NOBODY can watch this episode and still think that this is a kids only show. In fact, I'm genuinely worried that the writers may have used up all their best material in this one episode leaving nothing left for the rest of the season.
