Started watching My Little Pony!

When Twilight decided to open a School Of Friendship in the season premiere I thought that was a stupid idea because you don’t need to learn how to be a friend in a classroom, it’s about experience. But by the end of the second episode I understood that the school was more about a place where all the different creatures could come together to create friendships amongst each other.

Also, new credits!
You're in store for some real fun this season! *squee*
 
I'm still reeling about how some Ponies wear clothes, and other ponies, even royalty, walk around naked as a jaybird. Weird.
 
@Amaris, I loved “Surf and/or Turf” so much because we got to visit Seaquestria again! I was disappointed that we didn’t see Princess Skystar though. I adored her in the movie!

@Guy, for the most part ponies only wear clothes on special occasions. Though some do wear them all the time. It depends on the pony.

Yeah, I'm hoping they do a crossover with the film. I want to see Tempest/Fizzlepop show up in the series, so we can see how she's growing.

Yep. It's the same reason people don't wear tuxedos all of the time. It's special.
 
You might also enjoy the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls tv movies. I haven't seen you mention them in this thread yet.

Opinions on them tend to be mixed, but I think they are worth a try if you love Friendship is Magic and run out of new episodes to watch.
They are indeed worth watching. The first one is good, most people seem to really love the sequel (Rainbow Rocks).
 
Some time ago, I tried to give a sampling of Equestria Girls to my Bronie Nephews.

It was not well received.
 
I haven’t seen Equestria Girls but it looks very similar to Monster High and Ever After High which I have no interest in. I like that MLP is about adorable ponies and not super glammed up fashionista teens.

It looks like it, but the heart of the show is still the same as if it were ponies, and the voice actors are the same. I felt the same way at first, but gave it a chance, and I now look forward to every new movie.
 
I think I’ll just stick with the ponies.
That works, too!

How did you get that Twilight emoji?
I have it hosted on my Imgur account. I used to have a Brony message board (it was merged with my regular site when our server was sold to a new host who decided that everything was going to start costing a lot of money), and we used them as our emoticons. I can't remember where we initially got them, but I recall digging everywhere for them. Feel free to download and use them for yourself!

I liked seeing Rachel Bloom (Autumn Blaze) as a pony!

I knew there was something off about Cozy Glow from the beginning. Though I’m surprised she didn’t get reformed like Discord and Starlight Glimmer. I guess you can’t save everyone.

I’m glad that Neighsay finally realized that having other creatures at the school was a good thing.

Now on to the special.

Cozy Glow could still be reformed. It took a season for Discord to be addressed again, so it's possible. I'd like her to be reformed. I don't like the idea of a little filly in Tartarus and beyond redemption. Enjoy the special!
 
Tartarus is a weird concept for My Little Pony. Most of the locked-up "monsters" seemed willing to help the ponies escape, but nobody thought to try to rehabilitate them (unless that is happening off-screen).

Lazy writing. Seriously. Happens sometimes, unfortunately. Tartarus was built up to be this massive prison for the worst of the worst of the worst, the unredeemable, the ones who would never change and yet keep trying to destroy the world. What do we get? Some creatures in dinky cages, and even then they're creatures you find in the Everfree forest. We also get one specific villain. Then we see them put a filly in there because... I don't know, she's irredeemable already, without anyone even trying? I had huge gripes with that whole story issue. I'm hoping they rectify it next season.
 
“The Best Gift Ever” was really great! Probably my favourite Hearth’s Warming Eve episode!

I loved the parts with Rainbow Dash and Discord trying to get a present for Fluttershy and Pinkie meeting the Deer Ponies: Aurora, Bore, and Alis. Clever names!

Spike’s song for Rarity was so sweet and the pudding (ingredients) sounded very yummy!

Was Starlight Gimmer in it though?
