A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

Do you guys think there was a Trottergate scandal at some point in equestrian history?

Watergate was about spying on political opponents, right?

I doubt there's much room for political opposition in a monarchy...

Maybe there was the time somepony tried to hush up shipments/smuggling of a certain rare cake so they could hoard it all to themselves and then Celestia found out.

I doubt it, given that Celestia has basically been running the country herself for hundreds of years and apparently has a ridiculously high approval rating.

@Kegi: There is always room for politicking. Even in an Absolute Monarchy. That or Celestia never went past Medium Crown Authority for some reason.

I'm sure there's room for it, the question is whether it would actually be anything near the scale of the actual Watergate scandal.

Dune. Though not sure if he's referencing the movie, miniseries, or book. The former tends to be the most well known adaptation in pop culture, sadly.

I know it's from Dune. I meant where was it referenced in the show?

Also, from what I've seen, the Dune movie was stupid. But I guess movies tend to be a lot more famous than books.

@Yeller: It's a Freman thing that the Bene Gesserit culturally engineered into their ritual. A worm is drowned in water, making a toxic spice concentrate, then a Mother Superior purifies it and makes it consumable with body chemistry hax.

I know. I did read the books (well I never finished Chapterhouse Dune). I was asking whether it was referenced in the show.

Don't think so, probably just the Tatzelworm.
