The Weird Al thing sounds fake, but it'd be awesome if it were true.
Straight from the Hub network. Looks pretty real to me.
I personally am so stoked. Season 4 has been terrific so far and it just keeps on sounding good. I hope it gets even better! Shaping up to be the best season so far in my opinion!
January 4 – “Rarity Takes Manehattan”: Rarity is thrilled to be heading to
Manehattan for an important fashion show and brings all of her friends along for
a high-class adventure in the city she loves. But when another designer ruins
Rarity’s chances at winning the competition, she discovers that the Devil wears
Pony-Rada.
...
Wait a minute, Cheese Sandwich is the name of a pony, isn't it?
*facehoof*
Anyway, that does sound pretty awesome. I wonder if Weird Al is helping Daniel Ingram write a song? That'd be awesome.

Guys, I think we might know what's inside the chest (obvious spoiler warning):

I liked the song. Vampire Fluttershy was fun too.
What is with these Sequel Hook endings lately?
Episode summary for "Three's a crowd" has been changed, the new one :
January 25 – “Three’s a Crowd”: Twilight is looking forward to some quality bonding time with Princess Cadance. But when a sick friend shows up needing Twilight’s attention, it looks like her plans for a peaceful visit with her sister-in-law will have to be put on hold.

I thought I wasn't going to like this episode because the teasers felt weak, but then I remembered it was a Rarity episode.
[spoil]So yeah. The Box is Rainbow Power.
I'm sort of conflicted about whether or not I like Twilight occasionally taking a backseat after she's been the main character for three seasons and her abusing her power. At times her doing nothing when she clearly could do something feels forced, like the cabbie scene. Even if she didn't want to go this cab is mine because do you know who I am? she could've teleported Rarity and the dresses there to ensure they were on time. It seemed more uncharacteristic to see her just give up.
I didn't like the song, but it was necessary to set the wheels (hardy-har-har) in motion for the plot. The reprise was much better. AlsofanserviceWet Mane Rarity.
For people who missed it the play they wanted to see is based on Heidi of the Alps. Heidi is the 14th bestselling book of all time, so of course Rainbow Dash is a big fan.
Rarity still has the best breakdowns.
So the villain of the episode got off pretty much scoot free and did not learn her lesson. Sure she lost her assistant and the contest, but she still gets to pass off that special material Rarity made as her own. As a fabric talent can probably duplicate the fabric making millions. I'll take it.
I really liked Intern Pony. I thought Rarity was going to invite her to come work with her in Ponyville, but yeah Rarity dug herself into a hole like a minute before she arrived. Such a shame. One thing I wished the show did more often was show that the girls obviously had friends that were not each other or the Royal Family.
