"Pinkie Pride" is the twelfth episode of the fourth season of the Canadian-American animated television series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, and the seventy-seventh episode of the series overall. It was directed by Jayson Thiessen, co-directed by Jim Miller, its screenplay was written by Amy Keating Rogers from a story by Thiessen, and produced by Sarah Wall and Devon Cody. The episode aired on February 1, 2014 on the Hub Network.
The episode centers on Pinkie Pie, whose plans to organize a birthday party for Rainbow Dash are interrupted by a similarly energetic pony, Cheese Sandwich, leading Pinkie Pie to defend her pride as a party planner in a "goof-off". Guest starring comedy musician "Weird Al" Yankovic, the episode's involvement with him was the result of interactions on Twitter between Yankovic and Jayson Thiessen.
As he oversees an extravagant party he has thrown in Appleloosa, party planner Cheese Sandwich senses a "doozy" of a party being thrown in Ponyville, where Pinkie Pie is gathering supplies to organize her friend Rainbow Dash's "birth-iversary" party celebrating both Rainbow's birthday and anniversary of her move to Ponyville. Pinkie promises to throw Rainbow the best party ever when Cheese Sandwich appears and introduces himself as the premier party planner in Equestria. Though initially delighted to meet a party planner like herself, Pinkie is quickly upset as Cheese enraptures the townsfolk with an impromptu display of party-throwing skills, causing Rainbow and the rest of Pinkie's friends to desert her in their excitement for Cheese's party.
