Why Watch Ponies This Saturday?

Post by ToastGhost (?) » Sat May 25, 2019 2:03 am

I would make this a poll but it's already a bandwagon thread.

Anyways why do it? Maybe I will, maybe I won't. The show's just... not the same. :deflated:

Or maybe I'm the one that's changed. :pinkiewindow:

Given what you've said in the past, I feel that for you it's also that the fandom changed. You've been in it since 2010 and you got to be a part of the entire period of peak hype. A whole lot of content creators withdrew and a lot of fans vanished once the novelty wore off, which IMO was somewhere between seasons 4 and 5. Those of us who stayed did so because we still loved something about the show; as an example, I still love the show's aesthetic, the setting, the growth and journeys of its main characters, and the show's positive tone that so few other pieces of media seem to have.

Ask yourself what first brought you into watching and talking about FiM. What were those factors? Have they changed?

Last episode was great.

Today's episode is a Spike episode so I am skeptical :here:

Spike’s been great this season though!

(although I’m 3 episodes behind; May really sucked for me free-time-wise) :unenthused:

Yes but when he's the focus of an episode, he tends to act uncharacteristically stupid.

Fortunately, today's episode was

One of the better Spike episodes by quite a margin for the only reason that Spike doesn't behave like an idiot.

I have to admit the characters are the main attraction for me, although the stories are usually good too.

Probably still higher quality food than you'd find in Griffonstone.
