I actually kind of bought in to this after reading a thread about it and watched the first episode. Didn't get a thing out of it-- it might be a non-shitty kids' show, but that's all it is. If you really like kids' shows then this is right up your alley but otherwise you can just brush all these super-fan-theads off.

if you are going to try it out you should not watch the first two episodes - they are the worst two episodes
i would recommend watching 3 (will introduce you to the characters) and then 16 (my favorite episode overall)

I accidentally my brain.

Also, by some freak accident this reminded me of the episode of Arthur where he ends up liking a baby show called The Love Ducks. Srsly wtf

If you don't want to watch the whole episode go to 4:30 and rofl.

It's sad that I didn't need to click on that video to know what episode that was. /wrist

I'm deeply ashamed to admit that I watched both the OP video and second posted video in their entiriety. And then I proceeded to read the wiki and lookup videos of Fluttershy. (She really intrigues me -- mostly 'cuz she's very similar to an old friend of mine, and also there's something about soft-spoken shy girls that strongly invokes my curiosity. Why are they so shy? And soft-spoken? And freaking, why are shy girls the cutest and prettiest?)

Fluttershy is one of my favorite ponies. Girl has some fire to her and probably has the largest room for character growth.

Don't be ashamed!

yeah, other forums are abundant with pony activity. Especially over the dr hooves pony. And I have to admit, some funny background stories (like the existence of stalliongrad and Trottawa).

Watching this show is the only thing keeping me sane after a few hours of getting my ass kicked up and down the bnet ladder in ZvZ.

I've been watching this show nonstop all week, and now I find myself listening to the music constantly, waiting for the new episode to air on Friday. Catchy music, happy themes... Also, it's written by Lauren Faust, wife of Craig McCracken, of Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends fame.

The characters are likable and easy to relate to, and the moral at the end of each episode makes me feel my inner child again. The simplicity and innocence of the show makes me realize how too focused and irritated I get with everyday life, whether it be from studying or video games or work. I have to say, my nerdrage has probably dropped by a factor of 10 since watching My Little Pony.

Does anypony else on TL watch this show?

This is stuck in my head right now:

I watched that episode; then I saw your quote. Priceless, I think I'm hooked.

interest in My Little Pony (MLP) : 0

*seeing MLP avatars*
- "what are those?"
interest in MLP : 0.5

*watching Ponycraft 2 by pure change while watching starcraft related footage*
*reads description*
- "oh, so it's My little pony"
- "wait what? the avatars I saw was in a DF LP, are there really little girls in there?"
interest in MLP : 2

*1 minute into first MLP episode*
- "well, this is gay, but whatever, I have a few minutes to spare."
interest in MLP : 1

*halfway in*
- "ok, it's good enough to enjoy, and way better than the intro makes it out to be."
interest in MLP : 5

*first episode done*
- "I wonder if it's any good later on"
interest in MLP : 30

*unknown amount of episodes later*
- "just one more, then I'll go to bed."
interest in MLP : infinity
repeat();

...
- "Ok, I admit it, I'm a brony"
*checks statistics -> target audience*
- (reads) "most viewed by..."
1. Males 25-34
2. Males 18-24
3. Males 13-17

conclusion: ponies are awesome.
And if anypony argues that, then I'm gonna tolerate and love THE SHIT OUTTA YA!
