No, this is not a joke/trolling thread. We don't need more filler posts asking if it is.

I read several paragraphs before I was convinced you weren't trolling. I will give a vid or 2 a watch, but I dont expect to have a positive reaction, but who knows, maybe this will be my new favouite show lol.

edit: oh man.... what do I say.... well I watched that song video and it was as bad as I thought it would be. I never liked singing in disney movies as a kid, and I still dont like it. I know this isn't a disney movie, but its the same crap as far as I am concerned.
Maybe if I get really bored I might try watching the first episode, but I doubt it. That song was just so bad.

if u find yourself refreshing random pics that make u laugh multiple times a day then u prolly got a lot of time to waste and will find MLP very entertaining. i put off watching this for a very long time but me and my sisters ended up watching a few together and their sence of humor in the show mirrors ours so well. i love the characters in this show. dont hate until u have watched them all

This show is amazing! :D It so rare to see a kids show with such well developed, unique (and funny) charaters.

Watching the videos in the thread, it's a cute show but I don't think I really actually 'Watch it'.

This is like one of those shows where if you are baby sitting a kid and it's on you'll watch it with them because it's not dora the explorer.

Awesome show

Can't wait for season 2

I've been trying to get all 23 episodes onto 1 youtube channel in 720p. Gotta keep it on the down low so trolls dont shut it down.

Also Rainbow Dash is best pony, Spitfire is best background pony.

I'm a big fan of this show, can't wait for season 2, and I didn't visit 4chan for years. It's really a refreshing show which isn't only oriented at children (unlike the previous generations of MLP shows); this is really awesome once you get into it, I'd say the hardest thing is to accept to watch the first episode with an open mind.

Also, did I mention the work on the animation is amazing?

First I was like ... all people who are not little girls. But I gave the show a chance and watched the first episode... und the second... and so on 8[

This show is one of the best right now (imo). The story is good, the animation is solid, the charakters are really nice. I know this is for little girls but I like it x_x

And no, I don't have little pony plushies, little pony wallpaper and so on. I'm no brony - but the show is really good.

Awesome show, everyone should follow it.

By the way, the thread about My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is the largest in the history of mmo-champion.com

I dont get the whole pony thing, freaking started with pony fags on /b/ and i frankly dont get it. If anyone would like to elaborate on the hype around this, be my guest. To anyone he just enjoys the show, no hate to you guys

. BUT it'd be nice to know what the rave is about freaking ponies

User was warned for this post

Its hard to explain, it has genuine *charm*, the producers obviously care. Its well written and amusing.

I'm just waiting for a conservative to cite this particular culture as evidence of people catching 'the gay'.

I realize this whole pony thing has made it big over at other forums but i still don't get it =/

Is this like when you were in high-school and it suddenly became cool to act gay?

Show nested quote +

I included a source. Its true.

Don't take my word for it, wikipedia, scroll down to "reception"

If you would read what is written there, may i quote:

Despite the target demographic of young girls, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has become an Internet phenomenon with many fans of the show being males from 12 to 35. [...]
he adult interest in the show is comparable to similar shows such as The Powerpuff Girls, Animaniacs, Yo Gabba Gabba!, Rocko's Modern Life and SpongeBob SquarePants, a combination of jokes aimed at adult viewers, modern anime-inspired visuals, and a sense of nostalgia for older cartoons.[26][27][28] Many of the forementioned shows had attracted college-aged fans that at the time of Friendship Is Magic's airing, would be raising children of their own.

still, the main audience is female children aged 3-9 (i guess) only a small part of the viewership is male and adult (and retarded i may add)

@topic: this is srsly one of the worst memes 4chan ever brought up. i can't even watch a minute of this crap and i don't get why they seriously watch that show ... i mean, 4chan does a lot of retarded stuff, but the MLP thing won't get in my heaed

No, but if there were ever official plushies released, I'd probably buy one ^^;

Those were blogs, not threads :-P

The blog seemed kind of dead, and I know a lot of tl regulars don't visit blogs, which is why I made the thread.

Also, for kicks, a poll.

I know a lot of people on this forum also enjoy anime, so I guess I can understand your attraction to the show, the character I saw in the first episode seemed quite developed but I can not see myself watching this in the future, keep in mind I do not watch anime.
