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 haven't gone down that road yet, but Lauren Faust and Craig McCracken are geniuses. The two cartoons they've done so far are easily among the best of their respective generations (Powerpuff girls and Foster's Home), So I wouldn't be surprised if it's good. | ||

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) | ||

You know I watched only the first two eps and I thought to myself, meh it's an okay show, I can see how it's really wholesome and actually enjoyable to watch for younger kids. But I was really confused why everyone's favorite was pinkie pie since she seemed so shallow and annoying. I just finished ep 15 ... this show just really grows on you, slowly but steadily... just a couple eps every night... it grows on you! (And pinkie pie is by far my favorite character now!! She's actually genuinely funny and a likeable person!) | ||

"so... what's up with the my little pony" "I like it" "so you were just straight up watching..." "yep" "why?" "It makes me happy" "seriously?" "I don't know what to tell you. I was very angry, then watched 8 hours of ponies, then I was happy" I don't even know why I like the show. I can name elements I like (I love the facial expressions), but none of them really capture why I keep watching. I'm excited that this got renewed for a second season, but I'm disappointed that it probably won't be released until winter. I've had winter wrap up stuck in my head for the past 3 days, and my favorite one is fluttershy. That is all. | ||

I'm guessing you didn't even give it a chance.  Usually when things are remade, they aren't as good as the original, but it is not the case when it comes to the new My Little Pony show. The Hub knew what they were doing when they were setting up the show. Also, Lauren Faust, the producer, was a fan of the original My Little Pony, I believe.

But the thing that has kept my attention is how nice the actual community is, and what they all do because of this show. For example, a lot of the first fans of the show came from /co/ or /b/, and those boards aren't exactly known for their kindness, but you go over to Ponychan and those same users are all about love and tolerance. It's like the opposite of 'John Gabriel's Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory'. John Gabriel's Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://art.penny-arcade.com/photos/215499488_8pSZr-L-2.jpg) You add ponies to the mix, and the outcome is basically the opposite. It's quite interesting to see something like MLP change the internet for the better, as seldom as that happens. And then there's all the content that the community churns out. I've never seen so many parodies on Youtube that were created by a single thing, which in this case, is a TV show. A lot of really high quality art has been produced too. I can't say anything about fan fiction though because I don't read them at all, but I've seen quite a bit of it produced as well. I just find the effect of Ponies on the internet so intriguing. | ||

This video has made my day (MLP: FiM fighting game anyone?) and has cleared all the doubts that this show has one the best fan communities ever (besides the SC fan community heh) in terms of high quality fanmade stuff getting created every day. also, despite the fact that he didn't ask me to, going to take the time to link Bibbit's My Little Progamers blog here because I thought it was awesome and most posters from this thread had probably not seen it yet: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=234247 | ||
