John de Lancie made an appearance along with Sir Patrick Stewart at the Dallas Comic Con this weekend. As is usual when he makes public appearances these days, the subject of ponies is brought up by ever-present fans. One attendee of the con, DarthBob on Youtube, posted a clip of this panel to YouTube for the benefit of those not attending.
At the panel, John brings up Friendship is Magic to a group of Trek fans, and makes some astute observations that the two groups are not too dissimilar. John’s thoughts about being on the cusp of a new fandom (as opposed to an existing one like Trek) are quite interesting.
You can watch the video behind the cut.
