Seriously, when will the Internet get over its silly little obsession with those... blasted ponies already?

  • OH NO YOU DIDN'T
  • "those... blasted ponies"

    Something tells me there was going to be a DAMN in there somewhere.

    As for the answer: when the next fad comes along.

    a little muffled
    I almost watched an episode yesterday, but then I didn't.
  • Your loss. Just try not to complain about shows you don't watch.
  • a little muffled
    Who, me? I didn't not watch it because I have something against it or anything. I just got distracted. Perhaps I will actually watch it, eventually.

    (What actually happened was somebody -- on another forum -- posted a link to the first episode on YouTube. I was going to watch it, but I decided to finish reading the thread first. By the time I was done, I'd forgotten about it.)
  • Ponies are dumb.
  • Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch, Komodin?

    DEAL WITH IT
  • As a pony fan I will admit the show is not the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it is enjoyable. It does have morals, but fortunately gets the real obvious stocky ones (e.g. my pet-peeve "Be Yourself", even if it is presented well) out of the way first.

    The art is a treat to look at (it seems to take cues from The Powerpuff Girls and Happy Tree Friends) and the characters all have a lot of thought put into them and there are some really funny bits.
  • Did you know?  My Little Pony is Older Than They Think.

    As someone who has never seen the show, I find the fanart sufficiently humorous that I like it on that basis.
  • I watched a few episodes of the show, and I thought that it was very well made, but no where near as funny as people were making it out to be, certainly not in the same league as its creator's pedigree would imply.
  • Because you never know what you might see.
    I saw one episode and wasn't impressed, but this thread has refuelled my curiosity, so maybe I'll give it another go.
  • (I only got hooked because my deciding episode, "Suited For Success", had to do with design; the one before it felt rather bland)
  • I didn't fully appreciate it until around episode 10.
  • I started in order, because I'm weird and obsessive, and only made it past the first few episodes because I was told it got better. And you know what, it did. Can't remember the exact episode when I knew I was "hooked" though.
  • "As for the answer: when the next fad comes along."

    This. Unfortunately, the next fad is just going to be ten times worse.
  • I'm well aware that it's a dumb fad, but I'm enjoying it regardless.

    Harumph.

    ^^ This, pretty much.

    It also helps that I have a friend and an a significant internet fanbase to obsess over it with.
  • /now picturing Komodin as Richard Nixon
  • Probably hanging around the Sonic fanbase too long. It's really getting to him.

    I'm wondering why this show got such a big, obsessive fandom while Faust's other (better, IMO) shows never did, at least not to this agree.
  • Maybe part of it is that it's a great source of reaction images, and reaction images are enjoyable to internet people.

    Adventure Time is a better show, but the fandom is less active, so you don't see the fans surface as often.
  • The powerpuff girls are too old, but are still very well regarded. And I have no idea what you mean about Foster's, it was huge.
  • ....Fosters had a fanbase? I thought they were just fans of the flash porn.
  • It got six seasons, tons of merchandising and advertisement and was pretty much CN's flagship during its run. So yes.
  • ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    I mean an internet driven fadfanbase with tons of macros.
  • Not that I know of, or at least not of this size.

    Um, guys. I can't believe I'm saying this, but... I think I'm beginning to like this show! What should I do?!
