You do seem awfully cynical when discussing the management of television shows and such. No a criticism, just an observation.[DOUBLEPOST=1352818557][/DOUBLEPOST]Yours is probably the more logical assumption Norris but I'll keep my paranoid eyes open.
See, I kind of liked that the villain in this case was more of a presence felt than an actual character. Made him a bit more imposing - the biggest obstacles facing the heroes were the stuff he'd done a millennium prior. If he'd managed to wear down Cadence before Twilight got her hands on the Crystal Heart, game over.I finally got a chance to sit down and watch the latest episode and I agree that it would have been nice if they had another episode so they could have focused more on the villain but overall I felt it was a pretty good episode. I also agree that there was definitely some major foreshadowing going on throughout the episode and I really hope they roll with it and give us a huge bang at the end.
