My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Jason

Awesome Bro

Oh, the new Pokémon is awful for two reasons, I mean, I haven't watched it since the Johto League but I watched a few episodes the other day, and fuck, they've got new voice actors for Ash and James, Team Rocket wear black/grey now instead of white, they have a new themesong (Team Rocket), and it just doesn't feel the same as it used to...
 
Seriously, the first thing I did after reading the opening post was checking LaDestitutes age. I was surprised, maybe I really expected to see Age: 12. But no, a respectable 18. I too agree with Wyatt that there are some great shows, Spongebob and the old Pokémons included. Oh, and Phineas and Ferb, 'nuff said.
 
MLP is a children's show, and I look at it as a childrens show, but i must say that MLP is better than most other children's shows these days. (I just saw 2 episodes because of this thread).
 
Older episodes of Spongebob are amazing and upon rewatching them, continue to impress me. However, the majority of new episodes made after the movie's release have been stale and the general consensus is that the show's been in decline for years. There's a good episode every once in a while but the majority try and emulate what made the originals so successful, and the result is something that feels awkward and derivative.
 
RE: Spongebob

OMG no one reads ANY of the random fucking posts I made like a year ago. HOW RUDE.

Spongebob was created by an ex-marine biologist named Stephen Hillenburg. He had a hand in everything, from the art to the writing, etc. Then eventually he retired b/c he was old or something and became a sometimes-producer of the show, which was then handed off to random other people that Nickelodeon plugged in b/c it was a cash cow and their only show worth tuning in for for anyone who wasn't a 12-year-old girl who cares way too much about gossip etc.

After that (which was somewhere AROUND the time the 1st movie was made, but i actually think he retired BEFORE it), it became shit.

It is the same thing with any of the shows that Genndy Tartakovsky made (Dexter's Lab, Power Puff Girls, etc) and then eventually dropped to do other things but the network didn't want to let it go until its ratings pooped.
 
@ tobacco goldfish

First, have you look at least one episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic before forming an opnion like dadevster did?

Second, if not then you need to take the time to ignore this thread before buttiing in like a sore loser trying to make fun at those who watch this cartoon. If your doing this for fun then your just a troll.

well yeah, quick little trite comments like that ARE goading and unnecessary.

it's cool to say "it sucks here's why ______" but not just "this sucks".

anyway i've latched onto a few shows in the past that most people balk at so they became guilty pleasures. a lot of people do. nothin wrong with that.

i watch MANSWERS on SPIKE TV atleast once or twice a week. it's like crazy over the top silly/retarded in the way its presented but i find it amusing. i also nut over the original CSI series AND i have actually watched like 300 naruto's and 200 bleach's. they were horrible but i ... i was COMPELLED to continue watching. oh god i ... i had a problem. and i overcame it. eventually. after losing approx 200 hours of my life. plus im sure there are others.

anyway yeah idr the point here. oh yeah be civil. thanks

dude its probably good for younger kids but, like wyatt said the only reason people think its awesome is because of 4chan users. its really horrible if the demographic is aimed at young adults.
 
Laruen Faust made this show to both appeal to kids and parents, even to adults that have no children.

She created this show for all ages. Goggle search for the Laruen Faust's rebuttal to Ms.Magizines offensive article of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. ( My Little NON-Homophonic, NON-racist, NON-Smart Shaming-Pony: A rebuttal)

@ Noise, Don't judge the whole show by just looking at 5 mins of the first episode. Also the pilot episodes arn't the best because they are different than all of the other episodes. The show is slice-of-life after the pilot episodes, it gets better in later episodes (I.E Sonic Rainboom). Please respond at least after watching the whole ep, I like to hear your opnion( you can skip the intro if you like to).

honestly dude I just don't want to spend my time watching something like this when i have a shitload of legitimate tv shows on my hard drive (sopranos, treme, boardwalk empire and i still havent even started game of thrones). i just have no desire to watch a children's flash cartoon it seems like a tremendous waste of time because there cannot possibly be any kind of LITERARY VALUE in it.

especially if it promotes all sorts of family values that I don't even believe in. FRIENDSHIP AND SHARING AND all that stuff are bullshit. i mean it's a good message for children but for a thinking adult those kind off messages always fall flat because in reality things go a lot deeper than DOOP DOOP FRIENDS :mad:

Well I'm not forcing you to watch it, i'm just saying that you shouldn't form an opnion after watching just 5 minutes of it. Trust me, it'll get better after the pilot episodes starting at ep.4.

When you have the time or bored, try checking out the first episode, i'm not forcing i'm just saying. I hope you understand.
