Having a ditz be secretly smart is a subversion of expectations, and an obvious source of humor to anyone who sees the show. If she's just wrong, then it seems uninteresting. You can't really have her be wrong until the show's gone on for a while, the characters are established, and people look at Pinkie and see someone who knows what's going on, not just a ditz. It's THEN that making her wrong is a subversion of expectations, and therefore funny.
>>24568674 Well, they had a traditional stampeding ground, lived in teepees, put on warpaint before battle, and all listened to the wise old chief in the headdress. So pretty clearly Injuns. Still, they weren't horrible stereotypes, and were overall nice, reasonable people. Less stereotypical than Zecora, I'd say. One of them fist-bumps Spike and calls him bro. |
