Rewatching, rating, and ranking MLP:FIM

Preenhub - We all know what you were up to this evening~

With the show now complete and finished, and with more time on everyone’s hands, I’ve started rewatching the entire show. I’ve also been rating each episode with an out-of-ten score with the intent of getting the average score of each season. I also pick the best and worst episode of each season. At the end I want to rank each season best to worst. I’ve already started top ten best and worst episode lists that I continuously update as I go along.
 
I am currently 19 episodes into season 5 but I will start this thread off with just Season 1 to allow each season room for discussion. I want to know how my ratings compare with others opinions. Do you agree? Do you think my opinions are garbage and I need to be thrown into a fiery pit? What rating would you give a particular episode? Has your opinion on certain episodes changed after all this time? This all for the sake of going back through and rediscussing a show we all care about.

Season 1 I had found to be painfully average. Something I blame on the shows tv rating at the time. Many of the episode’s conflicts stemmed from a severe lack of proper communication. No one ever seemed to just talk to each other. Swarm of the Century I found to be the most egregious example of this. At least the season ended on a high note by following through with The Grand Galloping Gala wonderfully.
