The eps usually pop up on Youtube an hour or so after they air on the east coast. No need to ask anybody. Just go to YouTube.

A friend of mine introduced me to it and I was extremely skeptical and wondered if he had lost his mind he did introduce to some great stuff including the 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series so I gave it a shot. I watched the Discord two parter first because I was curious as to whether Discord was really as great of a villain as my friend made him out to be. It was too soon at that point to tell if I was a fan of the show yet but I was in love with Discord. I then started watching the other episode in order and after though I had a few "really I am watching this" moments I kept on watching and about 5 or 6 episodes in I was hooked.

It's posts like that that make this fandom seem more and more cult-ish.

There are unsavory elements of the MLP fandom but the same is true for just about every major fandom including the TMNT fandom, just because someone the loudest voice in the room dosen't always mean they are the majority. If you don't like the show fair enough but do at least give it chance, you never know you might be pleasantly surprised I never thought in a millions years I would be into My Little Pony.

It's one of my fave eps but not my top fave ep. My top fave one is Mysterious Mare Do Well.

Bridle Gossip's on my list tho cuz it introduced Zecora and she's totally awesome.

If I can be a hipster for a second...Ahem! I watched this show before it was popular. Back when it was coming out, there was some outrage over an article calling this the death of originality in cartoons, thanks to Lauren Faust being "lowered" down to this according to the writer...In any case, I found it bubbly and delightful and here I am now. Still watching! In fact, I indulged and got the figures of the Mane 6.

Can't wait for Discord's return, best episode is A Canterlot Wedding, Rarity is best pony, best CMC is Scootaloo, yadda yadda.

Well I started watching it when it came out for curiosity sake. I was never into the original (and after watching eps of G1 - G 3.5... Im STILL not into t hose...G4 is the best version!).

I too have figs of the mane 6 (and several varients). I also have others (Zecora, Granny Smith, Big Macintosh, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, ect). And several shirts (One with Derpy on it that says Have a Derpy Day, and one that just says Brony. Been thinking of getting a Doctor Whooves/Time Turner one as well)

Forneus · 12-13-2012, 03:09 PM

Yeah, the original set of cartoon shows, is a definite no-no for me. They certainly don't have the same mass appeal as G4 does. I'll probably start adding more figures to my smallish collection too. I'd pay top dollar for an accurate, official Discord! Or Queen Chrysalis. Loved her design.

Season Four news

-Derpy is now considered "toxic" by Hasbro and will not appear at all
-To further sales of the toy, Twilight will become an alicorn.

They changed Derpy's name anyways.

As for Twilight becoming an Alicorn. That's cuz Princess Celestia has been training her (without her knowledge) to become the next ruler or something. It was hinted at in the season 3 premier.

I'm curious, where did you read that?

If it's true, I've no problem with Derpy being booted out of the scene. Her whole fiasco was just plain ridiculous and took up way too much of Hasbro's time when they could have been working on something that actually bettered their product.

As for Twilight...I can see how that'd work from a sales perspective. She's not my favorite in the slightest and her becoming and alicorn would make her THAT much more of a Mary Sue in my book, but even if it does happen, I can't imagine it much changing her friendship dynamics with the other ponies, so I don't think it'll be too huge a deal as far as the show goes once that transformation is already revealed (though it would be kind of weird. Wouldn't that means she's a princess? Why does Equestria need ANOTHER princess when there wasn't even anything for Cadence to do when she randomly showed up out of nowhere?)

I read the post that says that, since there is no way we can verify any of that I will just treat it as a rumor for now. Derpy being dropped is plausible though it is seriously disappointing to me, Derpy is a huge missed opportunity to really reach out to fans who are disabled or just seen as "different" if done right Derpy can be a great character.

As for Twilight being an alicorn I think it is very likely to happen eventually but if they do it wrong in other words too soon and without the proper buildup Twilight will become the ultimate Mary Sue.

*The Stryker* · 12-14-2012, 10:36 PM

You're not serious right? A character to appeal to disabled people that's named DERPY? Whaaaat?

*Sage Ninja* · 12-15-2012, 01:08 AM

how come some people keep refering to Twilight Sparkle as a Mary-Sue? How many times has she screwed up or had a melt down. She's far from perfect.

I really enjoyed seeing Twilights brother Shining Armor again in the season starter. I became a big fan of him and his relationship to Twilight in the season two finale, and Princess Candence too by extention. I like Shining Armor and Princess Cadance's realtionship as well. I hope we get to see more of Shining Armor and Cadance this season.

I think it would be nice to see Sweetie Bell, Scootaloo, and Apple Bloom finally get their cutie marks this season.

Forneus · 12-15-2012, 01:27 PM

Really enjoyed today's episode. Rainbow Dash was always a great character and it was fun to see her, grow just a wee little bit today. She always get a tad better everytime, there's some focus on her and it tend to stick.

And man I love the sheer physicality of Pinkie. She's a crazy pony.
