The Saddle Row Review is one of the more
charming episodes Friendship is Magic has seen in its run, and it’s one I feel
many will remember fondly. It’s silly and easy going, yet amongst all the drama
and humor it never feels cynical, and there’s always a feeling of
lightheartedness and innocence in the many gags and scenarios that play out,
and it feels like an episode that really captures the purity and fun of
childhood. And while that is a great element to have that already lets the
episode shine, there’s a heartwarming and sweet core within, once which, upon
examination, reveals a lot about the show’s characters and their development.
