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.

I actually like the aesthetic of the G1 ponies, myself. I've only seen Rescue at Midnight Castle, but I was surprised by how hardcore some of it got. The first thing Megan does upon arrival is try to Polish Hammer The Dragon and then the rainbow actually kills off the Big Bad.

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayYeah but there were no actual screenshots tagged so it was hard to tell.
I immagine G1s got a lot more fans since FIW started.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayNot sure about that, from what I've generally heard most just take it for a random Eldritch Abomination.
Also, the sheer number of people getting into MLP means that some will check out G1.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayThe only G1 I've seen is Baby IT's Cold Outside because I wanted to see the nazi penguis everyone kept talking about.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayStory: Hehe, oh, yeah, forgot about that. I keep meaning to see it sometime.
I do recommend Rescue for sure, myself.

As one poster described it, G1 was hardcore despite the sacharine nature. It was described as quote the Disney Princesses vs Sunnydale.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayYeah other then the overall color scheme, being ponies, and a mostly female cast. There wasn't really much 'girly' about G1. Hell FIM tackles more 'girly' stuff then G1 did on the whole.
It's The weird, G2-ish (Yeah yeah I know toy wise it was still G1 but it was the show in between the G1 one everyone knows, and G3.) Where they were exactly like human in every way. Literally you turn them into human teenagers, and NOTHING changed. And G3... especially 3.5 that gave it most of the bad reputation for that.
Yeah, general consensus seems to be that G1 was okay, though a product of its time, G2 is obscure, G3 gets most of the flack, and we all know how G4 turned out.
Reaction Image RepositoryHurray, I voted today! I now have a right to complain about the provincial government.
Hopefully I won't want to, though.
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.Not... really? There was a provincial election in Quebec today. So I voted.
I was taught that if you don't vote you don't really have a right to complain about what the government does, so... I can complain. but I'd prefer the government do well enough I don't want to.

Of course, some people argue the opposite, in that since you're the one who caused the current state of affairs by voting, you don't get to complain because it's your fault.

G4 has songs but they ration them out, so it doesn't take over the whole show all the time.
I just had this attitude to G1 in the 80's that it was for girls so I didn't watch it.
