that, and Fluttershy

Fluttershy is just pimp

and quite scary too, with that Stare thing going on
She can be pretty assertive.

And man, look at that. They use like 5 different shades of Dark Teal just for that one section of her iris.
screw that

check out the blur around the eyes

that's when you know your soul is being watched
Not to mention the context of what is happening while the stare is taking place, isn't this when she's being turned to stone by a cockatrice?

I've only seen the first episode, which oddly enough I watched mere minutes before this thread was created, and I'm not particularly impressed.

It wasn't good, but it wasn't particularly bad either. I cracked a smile a few times for reasons other than noting the irony of having just played some Mortal Kombat, but that's it.

Maybe it gets better. I don't know.
It does. The first two episodes are just setting the stage. Building the world and introducing the characters. It's all uphill from there.

That's some quality writing right there.
That was slightly amusing, I guess. Still not seeing the awesomeness.

And before anyone jumps on me for being a soulless monster or something, I watch the Penguins of Madagascar every Saturday morning.

you could argue that Soma Cruz was the only one badass enough to stand before a cockatrice to slap it's shit

yet, a pink/yellow Pony just stared the shit out of the same creature and made it ***** out

Both quality programs. 2 different style of humor.

No big deal.

At the risk of being labelled an attention whore, I would like to direct people to my tumblr page where I have written a rather lengthy article about the my little pony craze. Its at least four pages long and I'm still not happy with it, but if you take the time to read it through you might get a better grasp on the situation rather than just dismissing it offhand like a lazy judgmental butthole.

That should explain everything.

And a dragon, don't forget the dragon. I mean a cockatrice? Sure, why not? A full grown dragon? Hell no, only Fluttershy.

I watched the pilot because EVERYONE was talking about it (on the interwebz)
...
I couldn't stop watching... I don't know why... other than the fantastic animation... there wasn't anything that stood out as amazing... but... I couldn't stop... I'd check it out... I don't know why and I don't care why, I likes it... (although I've only seen the pilot)

... that was honestly hilarious. I can't help but feel confused as to why there's horses pulling a train carrying essentially horses though.

i'm a guy in his early 20's, who loves violence and gore, and yet I think this show is awesome. Does that make me weird?

I dunno, I just don't get what is so awesome. :| I want to understand! I watch Psych, I lol heartily. I watch POM, I lol, I watch NCIS, I lol occasionally, I watch MLP, I ":|".

I mean don't get me wrong, I'd watch it before a lot of things, but I just don't see the awesomeness!

Maybe a little.

We're all weird on the inside, though.

OT: I wouldn't know, I've never watched the show despite the explosion of popularity. I don't really have any interest in doing so, either.

I wish I could just point you in the direction of one episode and say "that's the best one, go watch it and then you'll know whether you'll ever like it or not". But now I'm just caught between Dragonshy, Bridle Gossip, Sonic Rainboom and Over a Barrel. I don't really want to tell you to just watch all of them and waste two hours to decide you're not going to like it.

EDIT: Also yay for NCIS.

Well, tomorrow's first day of spring quarter, which means I'll be getting out of every class early and have a lot of spare time. Maybe I can check one or two of them out then.

I'll just have to find a broom closet or something and hide in there. ;)

Ignore the concept, I'm sure you can name a movie that has a amazing concept that sucked and a movie with a crappy concepts that was good.

The quality of anything form of media has almost everything to do with the people behind it, the producer, the director, the voice actors, the animators and the writers and to my knowledge all the people behind My Little Pony love and respect children's programing. Its brilliantly written, the voice actors are top notch and the animation is great. Sure there is a slight sense of Irony but this show was written for Little Girls and Adults as stated by Lauren Faust, this show doesn't insult little girls like the other stuff made for them. The Fashion addict treats it as an art form and isn't obsessed with shopping, the shy sensitive one can be strong when the time arises, and I won't bother you with the details of all the other characters.

Try under a desk. People will generally assume something is going down, and may run under things as well. I know, it's happned to me.

As for the show, eh, the animation and voices are good, so I may give this some of my free time.

God-tier: Friendship is Magic
Shit-tier: All of the other series', spinoffs, direct to video release, movies, etc.

It kind of reminds me of Transformers and how they too only had one good show (Beast Wars) while everything else media-related to the franchise was Godawful.
