textDisplay: I love how MLP has a placebo effect episode

textDisplay: More like a snake oil scheme

textOriginal: More like a snake oil scheme


textDisplay: I quite enjoy this episode since it's a great lesson on how to spot flimflam businessmen trying to sell you snake oil (and yes, that's where their names come from.)


textDisplay: Twilight is the only one left at this point.


textDisplay: Honestly i think Pinkie or cheese sandwich could have pulled the stunt because of their crazy cartoon physics but Granny smith definitely would have died if AJ didn't save her.

textDisplay: That's party pony magic

04:39 Their cutie marks being apples makes me wonder if they could possibly be related to the Apple family :J  Applejack would not be happy hearing that :q
05:16 Ehrm, provided that you have hands :J
06:26 Yeah, you can tell that by the fact that he still does need glasses :J The tonic apparently didn't fix his vision :q
Fun fact: Silver Shill was voiced by Claire Corlett's father (she voices Sweetie Belle).
07:23 Ahh... the pictures I get in all those spam messages... :q  I'm starting to think that Flim & Flam might have something to do with it :q
08:08 Nope, but it has as much magical properties as holy water does :J
12:45 Well, technically the truth :) "It can do anything" includes hurting people ;>  It's like with those "healthy foods" from the mall: when they say "no preservatives" on the box, it means that they used artificial colouring. If they say "no artificial colouring", it means that they used taste enhancers. If they say "no sugar", it means there's artificial sweeteners in it. If they say "organic", translate it as "+50% extra to the price" :J
14:30 Well, if people believe crazy things, they won't listen to you anyway when you try stopping them. But when you encourage them, there's a chance that they will ultimately hurt themselves enough to realize the truth and stop doing it by themselves. One can only hope that they won't hurt themselves (or others) too much before they realize that :q  Because some of them never realize...
14:48 That's how true capitalism works when done right :J
15:05 Well, technically, she didn't lie. She said that it SEEMS to work for granny, which is true.
16:44 And she's apparently teleporting :J  Lyra! You're supposed to be in the jury! :q
19:40 Up until now, everypony except Twilight.
21:35 Oh they aren't exactly placebos. They do something: they can cause real damage. To your brain, and your kidneys. I once found an antidepressant that said "can cause depression" on its label :q (among other things, such as kidney shutdown). But who reads labels...
22:22 Yup, the flower, in the Breezies episode.

textDisplay: Maybe flim and flam are distant cousins of the apple family but no one talks about them because they are known to scam ponies and mistreat apples (the fruit) the worst crime you could do in the apple family. It would be a nice twist but also kinda of a stretch. Not every pony with an apple (or fruit) cutie mark is related to apple jack. And I added that because didn't one of her relatives have an orange themed cutie mark? Also, let's not forget the pear side of the family. And there's been charcters with fruit cutie marks too but again, not related to her.<br>And there's a rumor that pinkie pie is related to apple jack but I can't remember if it was confirmed but they have rock cutie marks (except for pinkie pie of course)

textDisplay: The thing that makes season 4 my favorite are this great keys episodes.  Also de premiere and the final are awesome, and the episodes we have in this season are also great, but the key episodes make the difference to become the best season in my opinion.

6:24 "That guy's a paid actor!"
Fun fact: Silver Shill was voiced by Ian James Corlett, the father of Sweetie Belle's voice actress, Claire Corlett.

textDisplay: Also did the voice of Goku in the late 90s Ocean dub version of Dragon Ball Z

textDisplay:
@@Nick-ty9us Ooh, I didn't know that!  I only knew about Mr. Cake being voiced by Brian Drummond, the voice of Vegeta.

(Edit: Coincidentally, Brian ALSO had a daughter who played another role on MLP, Bryanna Drummond as the voice of Babs Seed.)

textDisplay: Omg that first song with the mention of diseases reminds me of the hell we're currently in-


textDisplay: Appleboom almost got to see Granny die in front of her, the blood and organs would hit on her face


textDisplay: Fluttershy was the breezes episode the flower


textDisplay: Fluttershy got hers in the breezies episode, only twilight left.


textDisplay: Technically Applejack day in life she said it seems like it works for granny

textOriginal: Technically Applejack day in life she said it *seems* like it works for *granny*


textDisplay: 19:00 A broken leg is better than a broken... everything.


textDisplay: If I remember the order correctly I believe rarity was first to get the rainbow in her eyes then Rainbow Dash then pinkie pie then Fluttershy and then applejack obviously and then obviously twilight would be the last one after her


textDisplay:
Yeah, man, Flutters got hers when her Kindness was tested by the Breezies.  ;)  T. Sparks is the only one left that hasn't been tested.  And how, exactly, does one test the Magic of Friendship, anyway?

Also, interesting fact:  In the Middle Ages, being a farmer meant you were a free man who owned your own land.  A good comparison today would be sort of like the upper middle class to even lower upper class, so . . . yeah.  By Medieval standards, the Apples are indeed freakin' loaded!


textDisplay: Anti depression medication aren't placebos, they do balance the chemicals in your brain so is chemistry instead of simply manipulation

textDisplay: But they do somewhat rely on placebos. If you don't think a certain antidepressant will work, it will work way less than if you did.


textDisplay: I made a prediction back when this episode first aired, that Flim and Flam would have an episode in every other season.  I still can't believe I was right.


textDisplay: 18:57 - 19:04 This could have taken a dark turn.


textDisplay: I would like to recommend: Cartoon Horse Program SFM and Horse men by krunkidile please 😁


textDisplay: Leap of faith like in Asssassin.

textDisplay: This was probably the most forgettable song of the season. I vaguely remembered that this episode had one, but I never could remember what it sounded like. Every other song I could remember strongly. There were a lot of great songs this season!

textDisplay: Probably because Flim & Flam's songs all sound the same: carnival music & stuff ;)

textDisplay: Placebo effect is an illusion. It doesn't really work. The granny could've hurt herself during the episode


textDisplay: This song has no right to be as relevant as it is. The FlimFlam brothers are literally just marketing ivermectin.
