I've started watching this show too now, thanks to this thread. XD I'm not caught up and probably won't be for a long time (if I ever am); I've only seen about 4.5 episodes.

I like what I've seen. It's a fun show to watch with my sisters. (The guys in my house aren't interested. XD)

I laughed pretty hard when the Cutie Mark Crusaders were considering whether arguing was their special talent. And I've cracked up a bunch of times during what I've seen of the episode "Feeling Pinky Keen" (yes, that's the 0.5 in my epic grand total).

I'm not sure who my favorites are, and in what order. I like Pinky Pie, and I think Twilight Sparkle is the closest to me personality-wise, but I don't think I've seen enough of the others yet (Rainbow Dash in particular; she just looks cool) to make a remotely constant list of my fav's.

I should be able to see another episode tomorrow though. (I checked the guide, but I don't remember if it's going to be the newest one. Guess I'll find out soon enough. XD)

Just according to keikaku.

Don't be scared! It's a good show! Why should watching a well-written, well-animated show with strong characters scare you? I didn't look at the Narnia movies and say "I'm scared to watch these." :p

All this talk about ponies eventually sucked me into watching the show. I have no regrets.

On another note, some very brave people managed to make some baked bads.

Hon, you are much closer to the actual target demographic than the vast majority of people who like this show. If they aren't embarrassed to watch it, you shouldn't be either.

Watch Sonic Rainboom. That's Dash's episode. Also, Griffon the Brush-Off and Fall Weather Friends has a fair amount of Dash. Pinkie Pie knows everything, so she just gets progressively more awesome as the show progresses, especially when she breaks the fourth wall.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Looking forward to the fourth wall jokes. XD

So I've seen the latest episode now! It was great. I might be the only one, but... I really enjoyed Scootaloo in this episode. XD;

So I watched the latest episode last night. AWESOME!!!! Finally we get an origin episode! Loved it. I like how they are all connected. Rarity: "We've been BFFs forever!" lol Also Pinkie Pie was amish. :grin:

The fact that Applejack used to be Rarity makes the "Look Before You Sleep" episode have entirely new dimensions.

You just like Scootaloo because she hates hugs. :p

Postby **TopazRaven** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:38 pm

So I'm finally watching the first episode! Can I ask, how many are out so far? Over 20 I know.

Postby **Sheenar** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 3:45 pm

23 episodes, I think.

Postby **TopazRaven** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:01 pm

Alright, thank you!

I guess that's part of it. I just like her somewhat anti-warm fuzzies nature. XD

Postby **TopazRaven** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:38 pm

I watched 2 episodes so far. Probably watch more tomorrow. So far I really like Twilight Sparkle, Applejack and Pinkie Pie. Rainbow Dash is warming up on me, but she kind of seems like a jerk sometimes. xD I don't have a definite opinion on Rarity and Fluttershy yet, but I still like them both to.

Nightmare Moon was pretty cool to.

VG cats did a strip about MLP FIM. It's their most recent strip.

So lots of news showing up in the pony world. First of all, this tweet from Weird Al:

http://twitter.com/#!/alyankovic/status/60438491301036032

But it doesn't stop there, oh no. For you see, Jayson Theissen, the director of the show, tweeted this to Al:

http://twitter.com/#!/goldenrusset/status/60741896728883200

WEIRD AL ON MY LITTLE PONY IS A LARGE POSSIBILITY YOU GUYS. He's done voices for Transformers Animated and Batman Brave and the Bold among others, so there's a definite precedent for Al guest-starring on the show. DO YOU REALIZE HOW AWESOME THIS WOULD BE? My heart might explode, and then explode again.

Also, the guy who did Pinkie Trigger and a few other videos made a special video for getting 1,000 subscribers. It's a HUGE song mix of a lot of pony videos and popular Youtube videos, such as the Nyan-Nyan song, Myomyomyon, a couple of Daft Punk songs, and a couple of Touhou songs. It's pretty great!

Is it just me, or does MLP FIM have the best freaking creators and directors of all time? My life would be complete if Weird Al did the voice of Derpy on the show.

Postby **mechana2015** » Thu Apr 21, 2011 12:20 pm

Unfortunately Derpy's a female as far as we can tell. I'd still love to hear him do a voice on the show though.

So, Twilight's new owl friend is totally Kyubey.

Who is Kyubey?

This was a great episode! We have been due for a Spike centered episode for a while. I loved his whole evil Snidley Wiplash look and his "Mwahahahahaha!!!" laugh was great. :grin:

So I wonder if this new character will be recurring or just a one hit wonder.

Postby **Nate** » Sat Apr 23, 2011 12:48 pm

I wonder if Owloysius will be a recurring character. Overall, I thought this was kind of a weak episode. It wasn't bad (better than Over a Barrel at least) but it definitely wasn't as strong as the last two weeks. I did really like the Snidely Whiplash thing, and there were a couple of other great lines, but definitely not the strongest episode. Still, it's ponies, so I love it.

Oh yeah, and more Scoot worship of Rainbow Dash. That was pretty funny, especially the look on Dash's face when Scoot takes the apple core. "Wait, she actually did it? I was just kidding."

Postby **Tsukuyomi** » Sat Apr 23, 2011 1:03 pm

Hahaha, Kyubey will eat your soul ~(O_O)~ Oe, that's what I heard.. Crossover from Madoka ^__^

Mech was kind enough to show me the way of the pony craze xD I remember watching MLP when I was little *___*

That was fabulous.

The first thing that popped into my head regarding Sonic and Ponies was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDAjEUCiljk which partly exists on DA.
