He didn't.

I never thought he'd show up.
Why would he?
....
Yeah, i know he has gotten his fan-derived name from Dr Who, but he will probably only have that connection in fan-made material, ever, unless the concerned right-owners considers it to be a genuinely good idea, too.
.... And i do not see that happening this season.

Considering that the animators and storymakers has decided to "ship" Derpy and the Doctor, could indicate that they might insinuate other things as well, though ...

Dr Whooves did also have that part with the hourglass in the super speedy cider squeezy 6000 episode, would have been cool if he'd featured, but Pinkie Made a great Gypsy fortune teller.

yeah, I was confuzzled as to why they didnt give him a mention, what with all the time travel and such :3

I was at least expecting him to give Twilight a knowing look when she mentioned her future-self.

i think dr whooves is when some future incarnate of the doctor has done that thing where he makes him self appear human but he made him self a pony to protect himself from the parasprites, so he erased his memory and blended into the background. meanwhile his compainion developed a serious muffin obsession and forgot about everything else so now there trapped in equestria.

.......but yeah what ever you think is fine too.....

also, some new place names, such aaaaas:
las pegasis
tartarus

and a new guard design What could these ponies job be?

I hope they explore some of the things they mentioned. I hope they're not going to mention the evil things cerberus was guarding and just forget about it.

For the record, Tartarus is actual mythology, with Cerberus guarding it. And yeah, a quick Whooves nod would have been cool. Nothing verified, just to see him around or something as theyve already given two nods to him being the Doctor in the show already.

Huzzah! I finally got one of the Tumblr artists to draw "me"!

Wasn't it Tartaurus? Geddit? Taurus?

I have a ponysona that a friend of mine drew on another forum, but it wouldn't make much sense to post it here as it's made for my display name on that other forum, which is nothing like this one.

This is why I believe Twilight is best pony.

Also, does anyone have an explanation for Twilight's initial visit in the new episode? Why did Twilight visit herself in the first place. Something must have started it.

It's a time loop. She visited herself because she visited herself.

nah, they were lunas night guards

i'd like to see las pegasis :3

So now they've made wars (or at least the knowledge of them), Cerberus and Tartarus canon? Damn Equestria, you scary!

By the way guys, this season has a 2-part finale

Spoiler:

A Canterlot Wedding

my only reaction is:

I thought that was just a cheesy board book tie in! That's gonna be interesting.

Yes, yes it will be.

Because, like everything else in the universe, she is powerless to resist the forces of Plot.

Twilight's brother? So is Twilight somebody's baby sister?

Yes. Or she's the elder.

i do not know how there going to do a pony wedding but i was hoping the final episode of seris 2 would have more discord. but whatever they want is fine too

Discord was awesome but I think like Nightmare Moon they are only gonna use him once. The two part finale sounds cool though...although part of me is hoping the cliff hanger isn't gonna have me biting my nails until the next ep, I won't have any left.

This ep was good though, Future Twilight really did look like something out of MGS. XD

I don't think so, they didn't have bat wings for one thing, even if there was a unicorn branch of Luna's guards, the armour just ain't the same.

i know i just thought it might be interesting to see the pony tartarus. maybe thats where the rest of the drakonequus are locked up? :3

i did think they were lunas guard until the moment i saw that they didnt have the right wingsno i think that they are just the ligrarys guards

obviously not very good ones seeing as they let a baby dragon, a reality-warping lunatic and metal gear pony into the building without so much as a how-do-you-do

lol, didnt look at the wings, my bad XD

Except the one that did give Twilight a how-do-you-do :p

EDIT: Found this -

Alright here is new and improved pony.
Crimson Dawn

Nah, they were Night Guard I'd wager still, just not Luna's personal guard. I figure she bat wings up her personal guard just for extra fanciness.

Oh, and for Crimson Dawn there I'd vary the shades of red between the hair a d coat some as otherwise the whole thi g appears very flat.
