I have watched it, and I think MLP: FiM is a very good children's show. The writing is above-average, the voice acting and animation are very good, and it's quite clever for a program that has its root in the "television program as toy advertisement" style of animated shows. Enjoyable by adults? Certainly, if you put yourself in the right mindset and don't mind getting over a case of brain diabetes.
Do I enjoy the show? I'm not in love with it, but I like it enough to pass the time with.
That said, I think it's silly to form a group identity around such a thing, even by Internet standards. I won't knock people who do too badly, but it's certainly not something I'm interested in.
I'd also advise people who dislike the show to not be too hard on its fans. I'm certain there is a subsection of that fandom (as there are with all fandoms) who enjoy writing inappropriate fanfictions and creating/indulging in deviant fanart (not necessarily on deviantART, but I'm sure you can find some there). They are most likely in the minority. Please keep this in mind.

I watched one episode and found it well made and amusing. All the moral lessons and typical "kids show" cliches made it feel a bit forced at times but i can definitely see why you people like it.
Not really my thing, but i see the value = It's okay.

Brony here!
Though I don't know if this is the best place to discuss that >_> *I am afraid now*

Well thanks to the Escapist and all this constant exposure to ponies... yes, yes it would appear that I am a Bronie.
The show just makes me smile and sometimes I get a real good laugh from it. Kids shows these days are normally so terribly dull. It's just so delightful and charming, something people of our age group don't usually get the chance to enjoy. We have to put up with gritty realism and stuff. Given the option, I'd escape to Equestria any time!

You know, I've never actually THOUGHT about identifying myself as a Brony until just now. But you know what? I am. I really am.
And I just thought of how I know for sure. Sometimes, when I'm at work, I think of MLP, just for the hell of it. And whenever I do, I always get a big smile on my face. Now THAT is unconditional enjoyment right there.
The reasons why people like this show have been repeated so many times that it's no longer worth mentioning.

As for this, I have a comment. What's wrong with people identifying themselves as bronies? They're simply expressing their fandom. Would you dismiss someone who identifies themself as a trekie? Or a "jedi"? Or a hardcore gamer? It's all the same, really.gibboss28 said:

I could describe it... but just check out an episode, and decide for yourself. You've got nothing to lose but time.
I suggest to everyone who doesn't know what the general theme of the show is, to read
