Because of "Friendship is Magic".

 

It's that show, and that show only, that has hype. The toy line could die for all anyone cares. People just buy them "ironically" so they can play up the brony image.

 

I watched the first episode last night. It's better than any five year old girl show deserves to be. All the characters were cliches as expected, but they were fully realized from the get go and show lots of potential for growth. It was never really corny, like you'd expect a show about talking ponies, unicorns, and pegasi (plural pegasus?) to be. I laughed at a couple of the jokes, too.

 

I shouldn't have watched it at 2 a.m. though. There were ponies in my dreams redface.gif

In 20 years we'll all be shaking our heads at the shows our children watch.

Oh yeah?

Back in MY day, we watched H.R. Pufnstuf, Land of the Lost and other strange Kroft shows.

Batman had a sense of humor and wasn't to be taken seriously. (Bob Keane wrote episodes.)

A local TV host played a bunch of really old cartoons Saturday mornings.

There was weird stuff on UHF.

Elvira and Joe Bob Briggs played bad old movies at night.

There were no infomercials and no product tie-ins, either.

We had it better. *Adjusts onion on belt.* (Oh yeah, I watched the Simpsons back when it was funny.)

I like the serious Batman better.  Of course even Batman was already old by then.  All those ancient comic book characters go through phases like that.

 

For some reason I know who Elvira Mistress of the Dark is and I also remember the "middle" years when The Simpsons was consistently funny.

 

I heard some of the other names on your list, but that's all I can put a face to.

I'm sorry nothing from today can compare with the yester-year

actually, I'm quite intrigued by this thread, do readers find this to be a novelty, a joke? TBH, this thread wasn't created to allow people to needlessly bash.  this thread was created with one sole purpose, to allow fellow headfiers an oppurtunity to discuss the topic on hand, "My little pony" so for those who are here to bash i suggest they unsubscribe and leave
