I know that there is a lot of hard work put into making these episodes. In fact I just read a tweet on Equestria Daily that said, episode 5 was suppose to be part of season 2, but the deadline wasn't met so it was put into season 3. Any way for some reason I always feel at the end of the episode I'm wanting more, that something was missed and the ending was rushed. You can really tell in the opening and closing episodes that are 40 minutes long. I know that they have a short interval of time but it just doesn't seem to end fluently. Tell me what you think? I wanna know!
Most of the episodes leave me feeling very satisfied, with a few exceptions (Magic Duel, for instance, which, while excellent, was a tad rushed toward the end).
Exactly right. The Crystal Empire should have been 3 parts though. That was even more rushed than the Trixie episode.
I've been having this issue since the beginning of Season 3, with pretty much every single episode, bar the Trixie episode. My problem may be a little different, as I feel the episodes are far to rushed in the beginnings, going far too quickly into the thick of it. There is far too little foreshadowing at the beginning of the episodes.
