The theme song's catchy (It sounds like Cree Summer singing it) but the part after it was painful to watch/listen to (but also an Ear Worm)

Will it gain a FIM-sized fandom? Hell no, but damn it, Hasbro's gonna try!

Fun fact: This was developed by the people who created My Gym Partners A Monkey

It shares many of the same actors, and same music composer, as MLP:FiM. Is this a coincidence?

I actually want this to succeed, honestly... If only because I want to see more good variety from this channel... The Hub is kicking some ass so far - they just need to keep it up.

Guh, that song. It's never leaving my head now.

Littlest Pet Shop was one of my favorite toys as a kid. I'm a bit skepitical at this show based on the clip, but I'm willing to give anything The Hub churns out a quick look or two.

Don't mind me. I'm just a creepy little lurker.

Highly unlikely. They made a post on Facebook that basically says "Staring My Little Pony's Ashleigh Ball!", similar Flash style, and premiering alongside Friendship is Magic's Season 3 premiere. The Hub is probably hoping for some crossover appeal.

It doesn't really seem like my thing (yet ponies are apparently), but right now it looks like a better "companion show" than the CGI Strawberry Shortcake series. Seriously, watching the tail-end of Strawberry Shortcake and then going into Friendship is Magic is.... odd.

[up] Try BS, if only because of how much that show stinks and even kids shouldn't be watching it ( so their brains don't get replaced woth stu...)-Oh, I'm being an asshole now... Sorry...

This will hopefully still be better than that noise you were describing...

I never knew Nicole Oliver (the voice of Zoe Trent, the dog) was such a great singer. It makes me hope that Princess Celestia will get a song in Season 3 of My Little Pony.

So, there's a banner ad from The Hub's website saying "Fun with Furries!"

I don't doubt Friendship is Magic is having some sort of influence on this series. Hasbro wants that pony magic to rub off on their other dead franchises.

@What: From the guy who brought you "Belly Bros" comes a whole new hilairous PR disaster comedy: "Fun With Furries!"

A good writer puts in a lot of details in there story. But a great one gets a story from a single detail.

They also use the "purr-fect" pun when none of them are feline...

That ad also shows them huge, if you compare their shadows on the street to the background.

Anyway, these are the titles and synopses of the 2 premiere episodes:

"Blythe's Big Adventure, Part 1": A little girl named Blyth [sic] Baxter and her father move into a city apartment just above an entertaining day camp for pets, and when she realizes that she can talk to the animals, Blythe decides to help them stop the Littlest Pet Shop from closing.

"Blythe's Big Adventure, Part 2": After the pets welcome her to help them save the Littlest Pet Shop from going out of business, Blythe harnesses her fashion designing skills and decides to host a pet fashion show in the hopes of boosting business and stopping the shop from closing.

There are also titles and airdates of 7 more of the 52 episodes:

  • "Bad Hair Day" (Saturday, November 17)
  • "Gailbreak" (Saturday, November 24)
  • "Penny For Your Laughs" (Friday, December 7)
  • "Mean Isn't Your Color" (Saturday, December 8)
  • "Russell Up Some Fun" (Saturday, December 15)
  • "Blythe's Crush" (Saturday, December 22)
  • "Dumb Dumbwaiter" (Saturday, December 29)

EDIT: Episodes 3 and 4 now have synopses from a press release:

"Bad Hair Day": Blythe frantically races to fix the absolutely horrendous haircut she gave Zoe while the other pets pressure Minka into becoming a rich and famous art superstar.

"Gailbreak!": Zoe's sister Gail gets trapped in the Largest Ever Pet Shop. In order to rescue her, the gang must first get past the Biskit twins and their high-tech security robot.

EDIT 2: The Hub's YouTube channel now has four premiere preview clips from "Blythe's Big Adventure - Part 1".

EDIT 3: And their website has the entire first third of "Blythe's Big Adventure Part One" available, if you're in the U.S.

[up]....AAAAANNNNNDDDD This show is in some trouble now. Come on, Hasbro - I want another show to enjoy that isn't already Friendship Is Magic. Your channel needs more variety, besides Transformers:Prime and Dan Vs. alongside your other cash cow... Just sayin'!

Oh wow, I saw that show on TV once! There was a horse guy, and a dog guy, and one of them was named Stu and said it was short for "Stupendous".

Taken out of context, the ending looks like it can be from an adorable horror movie.

I also don't see the big deal if it doesn't get a big adult fanbase. It's for kids, so as long as kids enjoy it, it's fine. The designs are pretty cute. I wonder if they'll change the toys a bit? The toys kind of creep me out as is.

I watched the First episode on xfinity and it was alright except for the introduction to "the largest pet shop ever" and this bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgDpOQoLUsc they only appeared for a minute and yet already they are annoying.

I was assuming that's what it is.
