More random Tales episodes I made up (season 3)

[acehoneycomb]

Here are some more random episodes I made up for a third season of Tales, continuing off the second season I made earlier on.
Unlocking the Past: The ponies find a time capsule inside the school walls.
New Ponies in School: The G1 ponies Wind Whistler, Fizzy, Gingerbread, Magic Star, Galaxy and Heart Throb come to the Tales' ponies school and the Seven Characters hold a welcoming party to bring the two groups together.
To Bake or Not To Bake: Bon Bon believes she has lost her baking abilities, and Gingerbread tries to teach her how to bake again.
Medaloid Madness: Battle of the Bands is on again, but there is a fire in the PTV studio and Melody must save Silver Gong, the lead singer of Medaloid, from the building.
Patch Tested: Ms. Hackney sets Patch a difficult test to see if she can do it.
Babysitting Blues: Sweetheart is tasked with babysitting her infant siblings Sugar, Honey and Peaches, but the job is difficult and she calls in Melody, Bon Bon and strangely Teddy to help.
Aunt Clover: Meadowlark has a baby and Clover becomes overanxious about her duties as an aunt.
The Great Bear Rescue: Teddy's bear goes missing and so he and Sweetheart set off on an adventure to find it.
We Make a Perfect Pair: Starlight and Heart Throb both like Ace, even though he currently likes Wind Whistler, and try to impress him, but turn against each other in the process.
Classroom of Chaos: Discord drops in on the Schoolhouse one day and causes chaos in Ms. Hackney's class. The Seven Characters and the G1s are later forced to make peace with him and he comes to live in the Tales universe.
Brain Overload: Bright Eyes feels that Wind Whistler has swiped her position as a smart pony and decides to learn everything, but this causes a overload of knowledge.
Superstitious Clover: Clover gets carried away with superstition on the week of Friday the 13th. Magic Star tries to help her but gets carried away with it as well due to her cautious nature.
Quest for the Frazzits: The Frazzits have switched Patch's friends' personalities around, and she must help them. She succeeds, and is turned into a Glow N Show pony by Bright Glow.
So that's it. Any thoughts?

[Notes]

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a fan of crossing generations. At all. The G1s coming in kind of ruins the Tales show for how I love it, you know? The way that they all live mundane but not boring lives is just a great premise for me. Bringing in unicorns and pegasi, or even just new characters to the main cast, has the serious potential to go wrong. Crossing generations just brings up too many issues. Continuity in each would be screwed up. For example, what would happen to G1 proper if all of the G1 ponies showed up in Ponyland the town? What would happen to G4 if Discord left?

Character dynamics would also be screwed up. Adding in G1 ponies would be like adding in OCs. Ace's crush on Melody WOULD NOT evaporate thanks to Wind Whistler (or, really, anyone for the sake of the show).

The episodes would also be a lot more INTERESTING without the crossover of characters. Bon Bon's trouble with baking in To Bake of Not To Bake, for example, would be better solved by her non-baking friends, or by her herself. All development would cease if G1s came in and started solving everyone's problems. Imagine if, say, Sweetheart tried giving Bon Bon advice. Besides, the premise is totally off. Bon Bon BELIEVES she's lost the ability to bake. She wouldn't actually be retaught, she'd just need a bit of encouragement. Sweetheart or Starlight could be in that role. Or maybe Bon Bon believes that she has to learn how to do something else, and reluctantly tries out Clover's dancing or Bright Eyes' library stuff.

Frazzits don't exist in the Talesverse. That's canonbending for what equates to OCs, and that is just... ehh.

Again, some of these are rehashes... of G4 episodes. Some of these simply wouldn't make great episodes. "New ponies in school" is a fanfiction cliches. The rest are pretty much ruined by the G1s. Some of these even sound out of character are are just impossible. "Superstitious Clover" is far too general of a title, and the lack of references and puns in titles disappoint me.

However, removing crossovers and shaky premises, some of these COULD be interesting, adding in more realistic supplementary information. Like Babysitting Blues. Sweetheart is a very experienced babysitter. She would be able to handle her siblings. Put her with different, more TROUBLESOME children, maybe Ting-A-Ling and Jing-A-Ling, and you have a better premise. I already quite like Great Bear Rescue for a fanfic, not an official title. Bake or Not To Bake could be good with the right reasoning added. I quite like Unlocking the Past as an episode.

Of course, these are my thoughts. I personally don't like the gen-bending or the implications I find. But I'm sure some people would love these.
