Ok I know the Second Season isn't over yet but am I the only one who thinks that the Season is ok so far and not as good as Season one?

I think its pretty good so far. I mean, we need more songs and all. This may sound biased but the number of Sunil-centric episodes makes me pretty happy.

I think it's just a little too early to draw comparisons.
That being said, it definitely does feel like it's going in a much different direction than season one did. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that Blythe is following her passion to be a fashion designer, but I'm starting to feel like that angle is hogging up most of the screen time. This show is called Littlest Pet Shop. Not Littlest Fashion Career. It almost feels like some of the pets, like Pepper for example, are getting the shaft. There are plenty of episodes focusing on Blythe and her fashion, and the ones that do have pets involved, not all of them are around. Season one had all of the pets together much more often and now it almost feels like they're getting a back-seat just to focus on Blythe.

You have a point there, there does need to be more episodes with the pets.

The bolded episodes are the instant classics that I could definitely watch again.
1. Missing Blythe 2. The Nest Hats Craze 3. Eights Arms To Hold You 4. Heart of Parkness 5. Pawlm Reading 6. The Treasure Of Henrietta Twombly 7. What, Meme Worry? 8. The Big Feathered Parade 9. A Day At The Museum 10. Alligators and Handbags 11. Blythe's Big Idea 12. Commercial Success 13. So Interesting 14. To Paris With Zoe 15. Super Sunil 16. Sweet Pepper 17. Shanghai Hi-Jinks 18. Grounded
...So, I do like some of the other episodes, but moreso I justy favor one subplot over another.
I particularly like it when the animal and human subplots actually come together, instead of just tying together.
Aww, you know what, I'm also bolding Shanghai Hi-Jinks.It was the first time in a while that Vinnie being in a song wasn't annoying, or just the first time Vinnie wasn't an annoying and tard-ish.

Lets see here's my views 1. Missing Blythe = Good/okay 2. The Nest Hats Craze = okay 3. Eights Arms To Hold You = I actually didn't like this much. I seem to be an outlier here though. For me it was one of the weakest. I know Russel Reviewer absolutely adored it though. 4. Heart of Parkness = pretty good 5. Pawlm Reading = pretty good 6. The Treasure Of Henrietta Twombly =fun 7. What, Meme Worry? = rather enjoyable 8. The Big Feathered Parade = enjoyable 9. A Day At The Museum = cute but not that memorable 10. Alligators and Handbags = not bad/kind of cute. 11. Blythe's Big Idea = not too memorable to me 12. Commercial Success = I don't find it as bad as other's seem to have found it. It was kind of amusing 13. So Interesting = cute/creative I guess I'd say good. 14. To Paris With Zoe = cute but just okay. That said I'm not interested in seeing "romance" in the show, even if it was unusual to see that it was actually one sided/the mime didn't seem to realize what Zoe thought was going on. 15. Super Sunil = cute/kind of good 16. Sweet Pepper = not bad 17. Shanghai Hi-Jinks = interesting 18. Grounded = rather fun/fairly good 19. Inside Job = unmemory/not that good 20. "Plane it on Rio!" = kind of nice. It had a cute song and some neat visuals. 21. "Littlest Bigfoot" = cute/creative but I don't know how to feel about casual sneaking this sort of mythical creature into a show that otherwise hasn't supported this kind of idea as of yet, and then never having it come up again (even from Blythes dad who was suppoedly a amateur big-footer). 22. "Sunil's Sick Day" = pretty enjoyable! 23. "The Hedgehog In The Plastic Bubble" = would be good if not for all the jokes referencing stories that are similar to Twilight. I know it was making fun of how stupid that genre can get and not promoting it, but even in joke hearing the girls talk about the novel was almost too much for me to listen to. Russel was cute as usual.

"Grounded" and "Inside Job" are two of my favorite episodes of this season, but only for the human plotlines. The pet plotlines are stupid in those episodes.
That's a problem in this season. Too often do the episodes not a human story, then a pet story, and only one of them is good, to the point twhere I forget and cannot match up which two stories where in the same episode. That's a big problem on imprinting these episodes in my mind.
I do like "So Interesting" for it's meta-ness and it's self-deprecating Hasbro.
I appreciate "Sunil's Sick Day" for being a good Season 2 equivalent of "Frenemies", in that Blythe was actively involved in a pet story that took up the whole episode. That and the Cyril McFlip fantasy and song was actually a particularly creative and specific fantasy sequence, even for this show (as in, not generic). Yeah, I appreciate that episode and it's twists despite me disliking the whole Sunil and Vinnie thing and their uh... fans.

I'll make my list for Season 2 when it's safe to do so... Because I love the idea.

You won't agree with most of it, unfortunately. I'm just waiting until the last two episodes show up properly before I compile it.

These are my Season 2 tiers for LPS, in no particular order: And with it, my opinion on this season finale (Hint: Mid - High Tier at best, IMHO. I think this finale laid on Blythe's drama a bit too thickly. That, and those stupid twins almost got away with their usual bullying of someone they're trying to be friends with, according to others, which I don't believe for a minute.
Still, a far better two - part conflict than the one for the Series premiere ever was! IT actually had meaning and was properly built up throughout the season. Don't forget the pets being their usual likable selves, either. Definitely DON'T forget that!)
God Tier (for effective use and developments with the show's BEST aspects in general!) Sunil's Sick Day Eight Arms to Hold You So Interesting
High Tier What, Meme Worry? (I liked how it handled the pets in the given subject matter, as much as I'm sure people want to punch Zoe, otherwise.)
Alligators And Handbags (for ACTUALLY handling its bullies well, as difficult as that can otherwise be to watch on this, or any show.)
Super Sunil (Sugar Sprinkles being back was a nice touch, for one thing.)
Sweet Pepper (for Actually handling the "crush" episode better than MLP did with theirs... Simple Ways STINKS.)
Blythe's Big Idea (I know a lot of people don't like Blythe - I'm NOT one of them (She's actually one of my favorite females in animation right now - just not as good as some others, on this channel, for example.) especially if she is being her productive self... I can understand the complaints when it's anything involving school. Those parts are boring.)
Standup Stinker (both Pepper and Minka had it great here... That, and I wish people would stop calling Blythe a Mary - Sue. ESPECIALLY after this one, indefinitely.)
Mid - High Tier The Expo Factor (both parts) (I can some people hating these two; I'm just all too happy that Blythe's productiveness meant something in the end. Delilah, like Sugar Sprinkles and Madame Pom needs to be in another episode, provided a good reason, of course - the main pets need to continue to get development going forward!)
Hedgehog in A Plastic Bubble (despite Blythe's stupidity - we've all acted like this at some point. More than we like to admit... Making it easy enough for me to warm up to this one.)
Pawlm Reading (I liked that Blythe wasn't gullible with the whole "psychic" nonsense, unlike Twombly, unfortunately.)
The Treasure of Henrietta Twombly (Kind of on the fence here, but Twombly, like in Pawlm Reading, shouldn't have been so gullible.)
To Paris With Zoe (Not as good as Sweet Pepper, but Madame Pom was a treat to see.)
The Big - Feathered Parade (I just liked seeing Blythe get a real antagonist for once.)
Plane it on Rio! (Same as The Big - Feathered Parade, though predictable that the villain would want revenge.)
A Day at The Museum (The imagine spot should not overtake reality, as entertaining as it is to see.)
Missing Blythe (I feel that F.U.N. needs to get out more - Blythe should've been shown enjoying herself more than that. I did feel genuinely bad for her (thankfully enough. That's hard to do for someone else when you're off at a place you want to be and you're not getting the best of it, BTW.)- and the pets and true friends and family who miss her deeply enough.)
Mid Tier Heart of Parkness (another good episode for a pet, near ruined by the Biskits.)
Littlest Bigfoot (Mundane setup, but passable, even enjoyable enough - ruined by the Biskits being there.)
Grounded (I only really enjoyed it for Blythe & Roger. That's it!)
Shanghai HI - Jinks (Penny deserves better if she's going to be the focus.)
Mid - Low Tier Nah... You either, succeeded or failed this season. Nothing to see here.
Low Tier (aka Damn Biskits ruining things for me as usual!) Commercial Success (Not a Biskits stinker, but Jasper will be unpopular forever after this... Real shame, once he got his damn act together, things worked out. Oh, well. Best to ignore this one.)
The Nest Hats Craze! (Blythe should have punched those two idiots. I know I would have. I'd only watch this for Russel's parts.)
Inside Job (We didn't need a "politics suck" episode in this show. Let's hope we don't see anything worse than this!)
I short, less failures and more God - Tier material than Season 1 had, IMHO. But with some of these I can see why people people are mixed - to - negative regarding the season as a whole.
