Okay, this has probably been talked about before, but what is the craze with MLP? I've only watched one esp. of it (today as a matter of fact) and I still don't get why the Escapist is buzzing with it. Some please help?

Ok, look, we like the show. If you're curious go watch it yourself. If you're not just ignore it. There, now no one else needs to post here.
Usergroup link, because why not.

It is awesome, all that needs to be said. They put effort in,and it shows. That, and it is awesome to run other things over. Case in point:
It is a children's show that adults love.
If you want to see more about it, watch an episode or two more. But please, for the love of god, can everyone shut the fuck up about MLP? There is a user group for a reason. Spam that with MLP related questions and comments and not the forums. (That is less directed at you and more directed at all of the annoying morons who spam the off-topic forums with MLP threads).

I know. I think this may be one but I'm not sure, it's covered in dust. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/search]thaluikhain said:
OT: Two things, people like it, that's why it's buzzing here. Two, this thread lost me a bet. So now, my title is at the mercy of [user]Nouw[/user], who is now going to pick me an embarrassing one.
Time to abandon the thread. Before the flamers get here!

I watched episode 5 and almost had an aneurysm when I found out that voice actress for Gilda the Griffon also voices Revy Two-Hands in Black Lagoon.
I picked up on the bitchy attitude immediately. I just wasn't sure the actress was the same. Now I know they are and I am confused.

Must...contain...rage...at OP not using...bloody search bar... *twitch*
Seriously, instead of starting thread after thread asking why it's so good just run a search of the forums I promise you will find a huge amount of threads all asking the same question all receiving the same answer.

Under reply and Topic Index there is a button called "Search Forum" it should help you seek your answers.Uzbekistan said:
As to why its so popular I don't really understand it, I don't bash it since I tend to like other cartoons and I think that would make me a bit hypocritical to bash someone on a cartoon preference although I do tend to grief my in real life friends who are "bronies."
The more you know. [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic]Uzbekistan said:
Basically, the first few episodes are meta-core. But as you continue to watch more episodes, the characters become more developed and their personality becomes more fleshed out. Also, the creator of the show (Lauren Faust) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauren_Faust] tried to make the show in a way that both children and their parents (at least the ones who sit down to watch cartoons with them) enjoyable for both. I would say more but at this point, you should just keep watching to find out... hope it helps! ^_^

Btw, OP(Uzbekistan)? There's one more thing that I forgot to mention in my last post:
For the love of god, use the search bar. Pleeeeeeeease there was literally the exact same thread a few hours ago I even recognise some of the posters.
It's a well animated relatively funny show.

Damn, did you really miss the other MLP thread that's been constantly on the recent post list for like 3 days now? The one called "Why Little Pony?", that is pretty much exactly the same as yours, and also exactly the same as the tens of thousands (slight exaggeration) of ones before it?
I would complain more, but hey, I like posting about ponies.
The reason half of the internet is ablaze with it is because it is a great show. I don't know what makes it great, the humour isn't that good, the characters are basically stereotypes at the end of the day, and it doesn't have any kind of great unique hook. Whatever the reason is though, it is great, and you will only know how great when you give it a try.
If this thread is like any of the thousands before it you will be reluctant at first, then you will finally agree to give it a shot (just to see how bad it is, you know), then suddenly you'll have a pony avatar and use the words "every-pony" and "any-pony" in everyday language.
