I don't have a problem with Starlight,at least,not at first.
 
But the show felt like it was just going through the motions,not bad,just stationary.
 
Season six, Starlight is suddenly a main character. I've gotten the argument,"well,she's not even in every episode",but that doesn't take away that she doesn't do much in her initial episodes. They're slogs because she isn't very developed. She's cute,yeah. She has a dark backstory,but it rarely comes up. It wasn't until someone thought to pair her with Trixie she became a pretty entertaining character. Saved Trixie,too,who I found dull.
 
Season seven straightens itself out,reights fine,there's some good shows,some clunker shows,but overall none I dislike. Nine is good for the most part,but it doesn't feel like the end. So many episodes just played like standard episodes.
 
I actually like the ending,though of course I have problems with it.
 
Pony Life has been enjoyable so far. I'm optimistic for whatever the movie will be and what g5 will be.
