Uploading to Youtube is not legal but watching is quite different. However it is strictly against board policy to link to pirate vids.

Fascinating. Say SiuiS are there any particular panels/events/etc we should find video of for juicy details like this?

John delancie is envious of Tara Strong's ability to always have a funny voice when she does things. For her part, Tara doesn't want people to look at her butt when she signs posters, but encourages you to look at Delancie's. Delancie accused the crowd of checking out ms. Faust, which elicited a strut and some swagger from the Fausticorn.

Man. Today was pretty swell.

Oh! And Braz is like, the amateur pony socialite. How she met ms. Faust? Said ma. Faust turns around while Braz was eating an hors d'oeuvre, an he responded with "ugh! You're not supposed to turn around while I'm chewing something!" and they began to schmooze. It was masterfully done.
Even more fascinating.


Eeeehhhhhh... No.
We have the fashion horse who is not utterly shallow in the usual sense, and is mindful and generous.
We have the tomboy athlete who enjoys reading and likes fun things like fashion shows.
We have the Book worm antisocial pony, who otherwise still managed to actually correctly apply what she read and excel in a contest of strength and stamina.
We have the economically minded worker pony who is bad a profit due to preferring to be nice, but who is still business savvy and not a total pushover, an who manages to be the bland honest one but still fit in snark.

Having the repentant antihero who shows up trying to mend her ways, that's... Bland. Uninteresting. More importantly, That is not how Trixie behaved at all. She wouldn't show up with a whole new personality. She's not Bon-Bon's voice. If Trixie returned, she woul probably be a better person but still proud, still arrogant, and not at all subservient to the mane cast. Which absolutely does not write itself, or there would be only a single definitive fanfic of it instead of what we have.
Not to mention when did Trixie become a better pony? She took off because her scam was exsposed, that's not the reaction of someone whom even considers reforming.

Heck even going with the idea it hardly writes itself. Why is Trixie repentant, how do the Mane Six react, what does this actually entail for action? What is the actions taken that bring the drama to a head. Does the idea even support 22 minutes. Afterall its not like Trixie did anything but lie improve her show, its a really small offense that the Mane Six all but brushed off in the episode. What makes it that right mix of funny, light-hearted, and heart-felt. Just a "poor poor Trixie" episode is terribly terribly weak.

Similar things apply to the other minor antagonists. The cast knows them, we know them, and there really isn't that much to the antagonists. They had their trick and now everpony is wise to it, not really anywhere to go there.
