textDisplay: It makes perfect sense to send Applejack and Fluttershy because they are the two least likely to get distracted and forget about the mission. Rainbow and Pinkie would never get anything done in Las Pegasus.

textDisplay: Plus, they'd feel right at home. AJ and Flutters feel much more like outsiders in such a place, making the character interactions that much more interesting to watch.

textDisplay: It would also matter that Fluttershy would have the kindness to forgive Flim & Flam so that they can make them friends again

textDisplay: @@gr33nriver77 She's also more prone to fall to their tricks, unfortunately :J

textDisplay: @@bonbonpony That's why she paired with AJ.

textDisplay: DWK summed it up perfectly.

textOriginal: DWK summed it up perfectly.


textDisplay: The twins have an interesting relationship with Harmony. Flim and Flam are lying, conniving, and greedy, but they aren't discordant. The super-speedy did work as advertised. Their miracle cure could have been made with anything, but they still chose to use healthy ingredients so ponies would at least see some help for colds. They are being entirely honest here advertising "featuring no shows of any kind" and paying half price to have a historic tour instead of a performance. They're evil, but they're not Evil, capital-E, and to Harmony, to the elements/tree/map/castle/whatever that I'm shorthanding as "Harmony", their banal evil is an acceptable compromise with free will and self-determination, which is kind of an interesting lesson for a kids' show.

textDisplay: They're con ponies. They try and upsell what they have basically.


textDisplay:
13:20 With each new series, the Fluttershy grows above itself, simultaneously turning into the sweetest manipulator ever. If she had such goals, she would have captured Equestria!
Ps. I appreciate that you found similarities in the demolition of the statue of this Elvis and the statues of Lenin


textDisplay: “My flare isn’t what it used to be” is actually a REALLY dirty joke if you know about horses XD

textDisplay: Explain aaa

textOriginal: Explain aaa

textDisplay: @@elianneeris well, not to put too fine a point on it, horses have a flared penis. this helps to keep it from slipping out once snu-snu has commenced. So I guess age hasn't been kind to Flim ;3


textDisplay:
5:51 "Why is your face like that?"
Because those two were modeled after the magicians Siegfried and Roy, in the later years of their career.


textDisplay: This is a good episode. It's great to see the Flim Flam brothers in a unique position. The concept of Gladmane is pretty interesting. Fluttershy has some pretty good moments.


textDisplay: Even when disguised, Fluttershy still looks good.


textDisplay: If theres no friendship problem in Las Pegasus  you got a free vacation from the map😂 no bits needed


textDisplay: 21:07 Yep, you thinking Lenin. Though I doubt they referenced this case(s) specifically. Possibly Firdos Square statue destruction or something.

Las Pegasus. Spoofing Vegas, my favorite destination and a recurring guest there.

Vegas Easter eggs! Criss Angel, Britney Spears, Siegfried and Roy, Cirque du Soleis, and Elton John cameo!

I see The Muppet’s Scooter in that backstage and the stuck-up former manager Sven Gallop too in the buffet line.


textDisplay: The title of the episode is a reference to the song Viva las Vegas by Elvis Presley i think.


textDisplay: There are a lot of celebrity references in this episode like Elton John , Criss Angel, Britney Spears, Sven Gallop

textDisplay: Catching a pony trying to get a confession out of you is definitely possible, but antagonists can't help but monologue, can they? Especially when they think they've won.


textDisplay:
2:57 "Ponies in leotards?  That's all you need to say to me, and I'll be there."
I think I may have something that's relevant to your interests, then.  Remind me to show you next time you see me on Discord.


textDisplay: I can't wait to see your reaction to the next episode


textDisplay: It's Las Vegas.

textOriginal: It's Las Vegas.


textDisplay:
00:10 "Viva Las Vegas" by Elvis Presley. Especially considering how much Gladmane resembles Elvis :J
01:50 I imagine Fluttershy gambling and going out with lots of bits, because she knows how to keep it low profile so that no pony noticed ;)
02:58 "Leotards" :D  I'm starting to call them that from now on ;D
03:33 Elvis Lives, and he's in Equestria :)
05:50 Siegfried & Roy ponies :J
06:26 "NANI?! >:o "   :)
07:20 At first I also thought that they're faking it, and the reason could be to make an impression that a) they're not in cahoots, and b) that whatever they're selling is some hot stuff ;)
07:46 AJ is like: "Why does the Map hate me?" ;q
10:15 Hello, Scooter the Muppet pony :J
11:20 Hmm... Any ideas who else might be doing the same to their own citizens right now? ;> (and I'm not talking about Gladmane) Ah, the good old "Divide & Conquer", always works...
13:35 I can imagine the epitaph: "Killed by Fluttershy's cuteness. I regret nothing." :)
15:04 "Trust us" – yeah, sure, why not... :q
21:02 Another Elvis reference ;)
21:07 Most likely Lenin or Stalin.
23:00 That's really interesting, because nearly all reacters I watched so far, had at least some episodes they didn't enjoy, and at least one episode they disliked. But you like everything. Looks like the Bronyism is strong in you :D  I wonder if you would believe anyone telling the past you that you will like every episode of "My Little Pony" ;D  But I guess the real test will be gen 3.5 :D

(11:22) Gordon Ramsay! (aka Back Burner)
(11:51) Do I spot Sven Gallop behind AJ?

textDisplay: The 1964 George Sydney movie, Viva, Las Vegas, with Elvis Presley and Ann-Margret


textDisplay: Viva la vida awesome song

textOriginal: Viva la vida awesome song


textDisplay: 21:06 This is a reference to Saddam Hussein statue being taken down.


textDisplay: You missed gordan Ramsey and the worker from colotura

textDisplay: I like your "the worker from Colotura", as in he does not deserve to have name. :D


textDisplay:
Your point about Hitler was good, but most tyrants throughout history made it a point not to name a successor so that they would be fighting amongst themselves instead of plotting to kill the tyrant. When Lenin gave Stalin the position of General Secretary within the Communist Party, he essentially allowed Stalin to give his friends important jobs and secure his position within the USSR, despite Lenin's own personal misgivings about Stalin. Later, after Stalin had consolidated his position, he initiated a series of purges - partly because he was a paranoid lunatic who thought there was a Trotskyite plot against him, but also partly to remove certain powerful individuals who might succeed him.

Other famous dictators who kept infighting among their subordinates include Julius Caesar, who kept changing the Heir Apparent (only landing on Augustus due to his untimely death), as well as others such as Alexander the Great and Ghengis Kahn (both of whom gave their possible heirs lots of power but in a balanced way) and their empires ended up falling apart, divided among all the potential heirs.

Even some democratic institutions have this sort of illusion, where the establishment keeps elements that are too radical on either side fighting among each other, while the moderates help their own up to the top.
