YMMV / My Little Pony: Totally Legit Recap

• Crosses the Line Twice: A lot of the series' humor comes from this.
  • Starlight and Spike's conversation, immediately after he reveals he's an adult:
    Starlight: Now I feel weird about giving you that belly rub.
    Spike: You think that was weird for you? Turned my dick into a curtain rod and then you just left.
  • Maud giving a brutal "The Reason You Suck" Speech to the sleazy guy that extorted Pinkie out of her cannon, that ends with her calling him an abortion of a person.
  • Most if not all, the suicide-related jokes.
  • When Pinkie needs an excuse, her first instinct is to call a passing Derpy Hooves a rapist and throw a pizza at her, that some how causes a nuclear explosion.
  • How Queen Chrysalis... raised Steve/Thorax, Frank/Pharynx and presumably her other children could be considered this.
• Cult Classic: A half-abridged, half-analysis series that often gives better morals than the canon show itself buried underneath a ton of adult humour with a paltry 20 thousand subscriber count but is good enough to be recommended by Josh Scorcher in his FOB Equestria Gauntlet of Fire review.
  Josh Scorcher: [in response to a comment that says that he would hate DWK due to being foils in their creative styles] the dude makes good points. He's like the Zero Punctuation of reviewers.
• Harsher in Hindsight:
  • In season 6 episode 16, Spike meets Steve and questions the "manliness" of his pony disguise. At the time, a harmless joke. Then come season 7 episode 15, we learn that Chrysalis sexually abused Steve and forced him to cross-dress as a child, even having other changelings call him "Stephanie". Ouch. Luckily, Spike didn't trigger Steve's PTSD back then.
  • A lot of the "jokes" about DWK's alcohol and drug use become a lot less funny when his video announcing the series' cancellation had him reveal they weren't jokes, they were actual moments of substance addiction making their way into the series and being mistaken for humor, and that, if anything, his issues worsened as a result of the series.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Season 6 Episode 3 had the plot of Pinkie searching Manehattan for a boyfriend. Two seasons later, Maud finds one herself.
• Moral Event Horizon: Queen Chrysalis verbally and sexually abusing her children.
• The Woobie:
  • In the show itself, Scootaloo is only hinted to have a physical disability that prevents her from flying and her family status is left ambiguous, but here it's outright stated that her wings are crippled, she's an orphan, and the biggest adult influence in her life is a dimwitted mare child who means well but is no proper substitute for a parent. The worst part? Scootaloo has so little going for herself, when others show concern for her physical health and well being, Scoots brushes them off, because she believes she has nothing to lose.
  • Maud's social awkwardness is taken up to eleven, to the point that she has knowingly deluded herself into thinking she's okay with spending her life alone with her rocks, rather than face how lonely she really is. Maud's also so scared of even trying to change her life for the better, she's Driven to Suicide when she can no longer lie to herself. Luckily, she gets better.
