Feel so robbed that "Day Without Sprinkles" was scrapped cause that would have been a wild episode with a really unique and great moral
SAMEE, I really love the moral in that one, I wonder why it got cancelled :(
I would've loved to see the filly AJ and Rarity episode! I would've loved more flashback episodes in general, I always wondered about what the Mane 6's childhoods were like besides what we saw in The Cutiemark Chronicles and a few others.
I think it's interesting that both cancelled flashback episodes focus on a different pairing, minus Rainbowdash and Twilight since both of them couldn't have met at any point.
Iirc AJ and Rarity were the only ones out of the Mane 6 that grew up in Ponyville, yet we don't really see flashbacks to them being in the same class or anything. I would love to see teenage AJ and Rarity interact.
id’ve loved rhem so much
the pinkie one would have been nice too!
i like shunks new mic but rainbott only being in my left ear is certified audio engineering moment
Ohhhh no wonder I couldn't hear rain, I only had my right earbud in lol
@@justcallmeoreooo LMAO
There's an option on the desktop or on your phone system if you type "mono audio" it'll change the audio driver to one channel only and everything ends up in the middle
@@shaunpocalypsethank you for reminding me of this feature!! it really helps
Bro I legit thought they were mute. I only had one earphone in my right, and it was just the earthbound music playing. Lmao
This was a ton of fun! Thanks for having me! :> 💚💜
hi Rainbott!!
:0
RAINBOTT
you are so awesome! so glad you collabed with shunks ^^
Salutations Rainbott!💚💜😊
I just realized MLP could've reintroduced the screwball pony as Discord's #1 fan for that episode
it wouldve fit so well!
they definitely couldve but imo it wouldve been way funnier if they based it off people who are like “the joker is so misunderstood he’s literally me!!!”
@@jamstarryeah when I listened to the plot I was imagining an incel type character 😭😭
@@seesawseesawME TOO OMG 😭
I am so sad we didn't get to see young AJ and Rarity as well as young Pinkie and Fluttershy! Those sounded amazing!
Good video, the audio mixing made me think my headphones were broken though.
Same. It was pretty distracting having my ears adjust every time it swapped between the two of them :(
That one about the "weird" kid with the robot wings was crazy. It stood out to me for some reason, like I'm really curious about what parallels they were trying to draw with that one and how it would have been executed. It felt a lot deeper to me than the others for some reason, like there was a lot more behind it.
honestly my first guess was that it was about disability. with the robot wings being the pony version of a wheelchair or whatever
There really needed to be side character episodes instead of focusing on them as only side characters and seeing them in the background
Yeah... I especially wish we got more on Lyra and Bonbon/Sweetie Drops outside of Slice of Life. Would've liked to see how they met and the development of their relationship. Especially after they married.
no, not really
the main six is already a big cast and the fact that they get the majority of the episodes is GREAT. It creates more opportunities for character development!
additionally, there is such a thing as too many characters, if we got background pony centered episodes, it would drastically increase the cast size & become messy & jumbled up. Fans wouldn't be able to know who the main cast is which is a lot harder for marketing, toys, and other merch production. The mane six are SO marketable, you can find toy sets of them, backpacks, blankets, posters, etc with just the mane six. It's a lot more profitable to include them all as a package deal rather than take a risk and only sell them separately.
when you have a giant cast, it becomes harder to do that. You then have to worry about how you're going to market such a large cast & which characters get bundled and which don't.
TLDR: Big cast = Bad & less money
@@yumekoslefttoenail6746Normally I'd agree, but after S6/S7 it became pretty obvious they were running out of stuff to do with the Mane 6. All of them were exactly where they wanted to be in life, and their friendship was stronger than ever, meaning an increasing amount of Mane 6 episodes would have to either retread old ground, make them act out of character, or become a flashback episode.
Imo, the best episodes in the later seasons tended to be the ones that put the secondary characters in the spotlight. The Spike/Big Mac/Discord friend group is not something I could've imagined the early seasons doing, but every episode surrounding those 3 tended to knock it out the park.
@@Commenter839 because these are all adult women, you could easily show the characters meeting new people, developing romantic interests, dealing with things like taxes, etc
just bc u have strong friendships doesnt mean that your life isnt still interesting!
A Silver Spoon episode was pitched but it was shot down by a Hasbro executive who felt that the reformed bullies story was over.😢
Also, Rainbott, you have earned a new subscriber for saying that you hated Father Knows Beast!
Jesus, the way Hasbro viewed the "reformed bullies story' is beyond idiotic.
Where was that thinking when starlight was reformed?
Plus, we don't even hear about Silver Spoon by the end of that episode.
Diamond Tiara was reformed, and that was it. The entire reformation was already rushed, and they turned down the idea of an aftermath?
WHAT!! i always complain about diamond tiara and silver spoon being shoved to the background after their reform :(
I'm so sad we didn't get the filly AJ+Rarity and filly Pinkie stories, that's honestly devastating that we will never see that.
I would have loved to see some of these!
Especially the one with Rarity helping Pinkie Pie start a business. I’ve always liked Rarity and I think she could have been an excellent role model for girls and boys, encouraging kids to be innovative and start their own businesses, and mentoring others to do the same. And the lesson about caring for the art and not just the profit is great too!
THAT PINKIE PIE EPISODE WOULD'VE BEEN SO CUTE I WANNA SEE TEENAGE VERSIONS OF THE MANE 6 WE WERE ROBBED
Pinkie Pie canonically invented gluten free food in Equestria
3:32
"The Princess of Stress is the working title for my autobiography-"
5:12
"Pinkie Pie is vibing while she eats spoonfuls of sprinkles like any other functioning adult would-"
I think with the first episode you all mentioned, a potential reason it didn't make it to air is probably because the show is for young kids and, having a character be "less fun" when not eating sugar could be seen as telling children to eat more sugary things which is of course VERY unhealthy and would lead to many Karen's attacking Hasbro.
I really like the AJ and Pinkie flashback episodes, they couldve been a cute way to show how the cast met before Twilight showed up and made it an official group
"Sugar-Free Pie" makes me think of an IDW comic where someone comes into town and preaches against sugar and all things sweet. Pinkie didn't turn smart, tho, she just converted and stood in the protester's place.
Since it was supposed to be a Discord episode, the title 'Number Fish Fan', in particular the 'Number Fish' part, is probably based on the nonsensical statement that 2+2=fish.
NOOOO why did we miss out on filly lore WHYYYYY. It would've been so cute to see young AJ, rarity, fluttershy and pinkie.
IKRR ☹️☹️
IKRR ☹️☹️
I think you need to redo the audio on this one. Hearing Rain's audio only in my left ear is driving me nuts.
Me too
@e1zh We can still let her know about the issue. Her last video also had audio problems and that's abnormal for her. Her audio is usually good.
I've heard a lot about these episodes that were lost and or scrapped. And even though it's an absolute shame that they never saw the light of day, It's sadly inevitable that not every episode idea was able to make it into the final cut.
I like to think one day ai could make new episodes of g4 to fill the void that the lost episodes could
I have seen you EVERYWHERE
@@fishiesinajar Maybe so, But sadly it doesn't really matter that you have or that I am. Not at all.
I just can't believe we missed this many episodes with new characters, backstories or Discord. I love backstories and stuff, and I'm upset, ESPECIALLY WITH DISCORD EPISODES. Like I would love to see Mayor Discord, or Discord bully a pony for calling him soft.
ugh that pinkie and fluttershy flashback episode would have been *SO CUTE*
I would have LOVED to see an episode centered on the parents of the Mane Six.
i would LOVE to watch an episode about Pinkie's past and how she learned how to make everypony happy with her parties tbh. it's my favorite one from this list
Why is rainbott only in the left audio channel
Fr it's so annoying 😭 i tried to watch one of their vids like a week ago and the audio mixing made me click off
yeah honestly it really messes with my brain, cant rly process what the words are when its almost exclusively in one ear
yea im having the same problem. go to settings and change the audio to mono and it should be ok
Wait, I’m not sure what’s going on. Seems like rainbott’s audio is only on one ear. Is this on my end or something you guys need to look into?
Great video otherwise!!
No I’m having the same issue too, I’m guessing there was something wrong with their mic or an editing issue.
Yeah it's an issue with the video. Not sure what's going on
Nah, one ear bud is skunk, and the other is rainbott! Pretty weird. (And cool?)
OH it is in the other ear, I'm using only one ear bud and wasn't hearing it at all ahah
same here
someones gotta make a fan episode that has that Discord script. it would be really cool to see how Discord does all these evil things just for it to be a misunderstanding :D
right I’d write it if I was creative enough XD I’d at least love to contribute art to it if it was like an audio drama type thing!
Flash Prance was the working name of the historical pony who was later introduced as Flash Magnus. In The Crystalling, when Starlight says 'it's not like there's a spell that would magically compel us to pick up where we left off' and Sunburst takes that literally, he lists off three spells; 'Mistmane's Material Amity', 'Rockhoof's Repour', and 'Flash Prance's Fellowship'.
Is there a chance the video will be re-uploaded with fixed audio when Rainbott speaks? Or is there no way of fixing it? Cuz i REALLY wanna watch this but i just can't. Maybe it's the neurodivergence in me but it bugs me too much :(
I didn't expect this crossover but its a welcome one I enjoy both of your content a lot
Part of me just knew Pinkie and Flutters had to be the first of the m6 to become friends
eek, what happened to the audio?! i have a perforated eardrum amognst other hearing issues in my left ear and its driving me nuts LOL. ill have to watch this on speakers sometime
Man am I sad about Mayor Discord and Number Fish Fan, Discord has pretty much always been my favourite character since his debut so more episodes focused on him getting scrapped just hurts me personally. The flashback episodes would have also been really fun to see (Life of Pie catches my attention especially), as well as Parents Day!
Honestly, I would've loved if they made both flashbacks of Mlp that were scrapped. Especially since I always have been curious about how each of the Mane 6 met. And Parents Day is an episode I would've loved to see as I wish shows expanded more on parental/parental figure characters. But yeah, I loved both parts for this topic!!!
unrelated but I love ur voice it's so appealing to listen to and makes the videos 100 times better
God I wish they had those flashback episodes. I only watched mlp up to like season 5. Do they have any cool flashback episodes after that point? I always craved for the ponies backstories!!
If u count applejack's parents backstory, its just *chefs kiss*
Lost, scrapped, or altered.
These MLP episodes would’ve been good if they were released as they are. I’d love to see more Daring Do episodes with a new villain other than Caballeron or Ahuizotl.
I even tried to write a new episode for myself that featured Daring Do no longer has a place to explore after Ahuizotl’s jungle is now off limits, so she turns to Twilight for advice and informs her to go see Zecora and they journey together to a new land inhabited by more zebras.
This video seems really fun! You both are content creators I really enjoy, even if I didn't grow up with the series so watching a collab of you two (and your content in general) Is a really fun way of learning more about the show
I think "Life of Pie" would have been an amazing episode and I'm so upset that it does not exist T^T
discord having a fan episode sounds cool. maybe a comic of the concept?
Having Rainbott's audio only coming out of the left audio channel is really jarring for headphone users. If re-recording wasn't an option, you could set her audio to mono or duplicated her track to both audio channels.
I WAS WATCHING BOTH OF YOU AND NOW YOU COLLAB THIS IS GREAT
I really wanna watch but rainbott's audio in one ear is really giving me a headache :(((
Some of these episodes are just the plots of existing episodes before they were reworked, and then theres ones like "a day without sprinkles". I think we deserve an extended cut featuring these episodes, even if the budget is garbage
I was obsessed with MLP and would look at any behind the scenes content I could so I’m really shocked I never heard about any of these pos episodes. Also I LOVE RAINBOTT CONGRATS ON DOING A COLLAB 👏👏👏
That Guiness Book of World Records episodes sounds hilarious, idk what was supposed to be wrong with that one.
My left ear enjoyed this collaboration
Honestly, werk
8:48 This legit sounds like official episode with some sprinkles of meta commentary.
WHY DIDN'T WE GET IT?!? IT SOUNDS SO COOL!
Very interesting video! I'm always interested in pony lost/scrapped media. Although I have to say that the audio made it more difficult to listen to than your usual videos. I wasn't watching with headphones, and even still Rainbott's audio was muffled and quieter than Shunks, so I had to adjust the volume every time the speaker changed. Some of the background music picked was also very distracting - I love Earthbound's music but some of it is just not made for video essays. Heartless Hotel [the track for the segment at 3:36] in particular was so distracting that, combined with the muffled audio, I couldn't absorb what was being said at all.
Really love this video, but please, please, please next time you edit a video, check through the whole thing with headphones to make sure there isn't audio fuckery, because it really wasn't pleasant to listen to Rainbott only in my left ear. Obviously I can switch on mono audio on my desktop so that fixed it, but this is a crucial thing in editing a lot of YTbers keep overlooking or missing sometimes.
omg ive been waiting for you to upload all day and i started watching your videos to pass the time and didnt even realize you posted 😭
I didn't thought there where cancelled episodes in FIM, so this video was really helpful and I enjoyed it
today we learned that shunks edits with mono audio headphones!
oh my god, sorry, but this is so hard to watch with rainbott being in only one side
Did you have to stop watching?
If you’re having issues with audio, you can go into your computer or phone’s audio settings and turn on “mono audio” temporarily.
For sure some cool looking missing episode. Cant wait for part 2, keep good work going.
Why is it that I only hear rainbott on my left ear
I absolutely loved seeing this colab and hearing about all the episodes we never got, but (as a South African) that grootslang comment at 9:50 bothered me so much I couldn't focus on the rest of the video
:( I had that coming
I would have loved to have seen more filly fluttershy and all of the mane six's parents interact. Some of these seemed so cute. Also would have loved both discord episodes and the one with filly applejack and rarity as opposed to just filly aj that we did get. I am also interested in each of the mane six's lives before season 1, especially their bonds together. Any episode with friend sets as foals would be cute. Fluttershy and rainbow dash's filly friendship, rarity and aj, pinkie and, well, everypony as a filly. There WAS a mane five long before twilight joined the scene and as much as I adore twilight and the dynamic of all six, it would be cute to see more of their pasts. I would have even enjoyed some filly twilight hijinks especially if foalsitter cadence got involved. An episode with cadence and filly twi and the beginnings of cadence and shining crushing on each other as a little sub plot would have been just adorable.
my left ear enjoyed this video!
jokes aside it's nice to see yall collabing
Parents Day story idea, Everyone is meeting up the parents, or in AJ's case, grandparents of the faculty are sadly the only ones to show up and while everyone's chatting and getting to know each other and we see some cute fant conforth banter between pairings like Wendy Whistles and Mrs Shy and even Big Mac and Shining Armor cuz that would be a fun pairing, Igneous Rock Pie and Cloudy Quartz go up to introduce themselves to Grand-pear whom was not therefore hearth-breakers and they notice that Granny Smith and to a lesser extent Grand-pear are both looking a little down in the dumps and while they initially want to go try to cheer up the two of them cloudy pieces together an off-screen conversation that igneous and cloudy had with Granny during Hearthbreakers and with just this line "It's their anniversary, isn't it?" Unintentionally pushes Granny Smith and Grand-pear are two tears visible tears and the main conflict is Twilight consoling her emotionally damaged friend Applejack only for AJ to be to choked up to speak and Twilight overhears Big Macintosh confirming to shining armor and limestone pie that is just so happens to be the anniversary of the breakage of the Apple Family, we even get verbal confirmation of the Crusaders age range with the reveal that is Ben x amount of years and Apple Bloom was only two when AJ, Mac and Granny all woke up one day and Bright Mac and Pear Butter were just gone
That's some good fanfic meterial :3
Oh my gosh collab with Rainbott:0
My left ear loved this video!
Not sure how to feel about shunk’s animated stills. It makes it look like shes chewing lol. just a minor nitpick but idk i kind of prefer the old style
Best crossover ever! I love watching both of you and I'm so happy you colaborated.
I think "Number Fish Fan" sounded the most interesting to me. I think it would have been interesting to see how Discord reacts to other ponies besides Fluttershy liking Discord and him dealing with someone who liked the old him better. Could have shown a nice contrast between the new and old Discord. Though "Dungeons and Discord" is an extremely fun discord episode that season, so I don't think it was a huge loss.
Honestly I like the idea of Discord’s fan episode. As well as the episode between Celestia and Luna.
rainbott's audio being in only one ear is bothering me so bad
i love lost media so much
Anybody else curious about the games being played and wondering if they are still available?
Rain has come so far!
I'm proud of you father
My left ear
But yeah, something should have happened with the audio (Rainbott on mono or something like that?). Beyond that I would have liked if the episode names were also thrown up on screen as well and some abridged description to go with them
Wind Beneath My Wings could have been a great parallel for neurodivergence, like how many folks feel like they need to mask in order to fit in. Maybe G5 could somehow recycle that concept?
I had the leaks for this but I don't have that anymore. I still have the show bibles
Life of Pie sounded amazing! With all the flashbacks they came up with Season 6, why didn’t they produce a set of 2-3 of them towards the end of the season? That would’ve given the Mane 6 fans their fill, and Starlight fans more anticipation for her starring role in the finale.
No cancelled episodes about Spike...... Probably for the best since the writers will screw him over as usually.
I wanna now write a script for the Sprinkle Cult episode
Discord fan episode ,bPinkie Pie flashback episode and Pinkie Pie Sprinkles episode would be amazing if they were made. Seriously baffled how they got overlooked for... Yakity Sax and other crap 😢
T H E COLLAB WE ALL NEEDED
i have very bad hearing in my left ear, so on half the episodes i just listen to the earthbound music
you should review the equestria girls specials !! (i’m pleading)
I loved this Collab alot~^^ ❤
Colleen Ballinger jumpscare 😟😟
some of these wouldve been so interesting and its kind of a shame they were never made
rainbott and shunks collab? yay!
rainbot in your left ear doesn't exist they cant hurt u
rainbot in your left ear:
"The episode was rejected after only four days and I can kinda see why"
. . . Could you explain?
A collab between two of my fave content creators?! Heck yeah.
I only had one headphone in and I thought rainnbot was just silent 💀
Some of these stories could’ve worked in pony life.
RAINBOTT AND SHUNKS IN ONE VID LESS GO
Oh, Rain's audio mixing is horrible, it's quite and only in one ear. I can't watch the video with ti like that
my left ear loved this video
(i was wearing headphones)
I agree I would have loved those flashback eps and wish to see more of the Mane Six before they met Twi.
Also that Discord ep sounds really fun and interesting too, and I love the sound of the ending.
I feel like the business ep with Pinkie and Rarity wouldve gone against the Princess Dress ep too much imo - Rarity already expressed a dislike for automation over creativity so idk why she’d try doing it again lol
SHUNKS AND RAINBOTT COLAB OF THE CENTURY I CHEERED SO HARD
