The show is still great and enjoyable as it always has been. Jayson Thiessen will make sure that it stays that way. Honestly, everyone should stop worrying about future episodes and trust that it will be fine. Even without faust, the show is within great hands and I know that Jayson will make sure It never becomes ‘unwatchable’ or ‘boring and generic.’
Fellow bronies always love and tolerate through even the worst of times. Even without Lauren Faust, the show is still great(in my opinion), but the fandom is just too great for anyone to leave. This has inspired me to be active in the pony community. I love MLP FiM and we all should too(even though its obvious it was double the awesome when Lauren Faust was still working on it).
So… How IS the internet taking Season 2? The jokes and references and charm is definitely still there, and memes are flooding in by the plenty, but I’m not sure what the general consensus is. I loved the intro episodes, but I feel like some of the characters seemed to have changed a bit in preceeding ones, and some of the funny seems a bit forced. Fluttershy doesn’t seem shy or skittish at all any more, Rainbow Dash has become increasingly full of herself in the latest two episodes, Applejack and Pinkie… Haven’t even really been featured in anything yet. Rarity and Twilight are about the same, save Twilight’s brief fall into madness.
Eh… I guess in retrospect it’s not all that bad, but they did seem to alter Fluttershy and Rainbow a bit, and as my favorites it irked me a bit. They need a Pinkie episode, and MORE SONGS!
the consensus is that fans are morons and they prefer what they created by pure ego instead of the actual show let alone the fact that many families are enjoying it with their kids intended audience or not
it got too big and it became dumb, fans ruin everything always
I like the S2 episodes mostly. Luna Eclipsed was awesome, Lesson Zero too, didn’t care for Mare Do Well, wish there were more songs, but honestly I’d rathe have one good long complete song like the pet song than 10 “Hush Now, Quiet Now” numbers that sound good for 25 seconds. IOW, quality has been cosistent.
But I like the fan canon as well. I don’t want to see Derpy or Octavia on the show except in cameo lest they ruin fandom. I’ll read the fics and comics and make my own headcanon.
Huh. Our names both express apathy, and yet you choose to express yourself by calling the show dumb and its fans “morons” and “stupid idiots”. Why are you here exactly?
and as you can clearly read on the submission above bronies think of themselves too high its not about the show its about themselves and how they feel special or something like they need some bucking award
The brony fandom, dear parasprite, is about loving the show and supporting each other, not boosting ourselves up. We’re about friendship. We cannot be defeated. You WILL be loved and tolerated.
I am inclined to agree with you meh. The fact that he has come on here, and stated that we are all here in order to “boost ourselves” as Fable has stated. Simply means he does not understand our way and shall be tolerated but not loved. Not until he understands what it means to be a Brony.
“By having an opinion that is not approved by the herdthink, you display to the world what a fool you are! We are united! Dissent will not be tolerated, nor loved! Your attitude has been noted!”
Oh good, I’m not the only one who ponifies George Orwell. As I told my brony brother, “Everypony is best pony, but some ponies are more best pony than others.”
I always wait and watch the youtube downloads Saturday night, lest my parents catch me watching My Little Pony in the living room on a Saturday morning…
If I were part of the creation team of mlp I would be actually quite sad to read this
it not only shows a bit of fanbase arrogance but its really cruel to what they made something they put all their effort into, really low community really low and quite disappointing
Faust was the main driving force that started the show and one of the few people working on it that talk to bronies, that’s why most fans idolize her.
That’s not to say that fans don’t know names like Ingram or Theissan.
Hmm, i better whine about something new/different and make a scene for attention on an internet comment page!
better whine about there “not being enough pinkie” without considering theres more than half the season to go still!
better whine about not enough songs, right after one of the best songs yet just aired!
She went from executive producer to consulting producer. By the beginning of Season 3 it’s assumed that she’ll have no position on the team. Jayson Theissen the supervising director will be the highest up person who addresses bronies. Theissen and Faust are good friends and he will be going to her for help when needed.
Just think of it as a chance for Lauren to work on Super Best Friends Forever while having time to try and pitch Galaxy Girls to some company that will run with it.
people have opinions, mine is Season 2 is really amazing. remember bronies some of us can’t live up to our words of: Love and Tolerate but you can, I can we all can if we actually try. Or let peer pressure get to you.
I don’t hate S2.
I do MISS certain elements from S1, very much.
As others have already pointed out, S2 seems to be primarily about feeding the Bronies–cultural reference pile-ups, Find The Derpy, ADHD pacing, and cramming as many characters as possible into each script. I love Mayor Mare and Granny Smith as much as anypony but we don’t need to see them THIS often. And frankly, the S2 scripts haven’t been nearly as well-edited as they were in S1 or should be.
I fell in love with the show for the little charming character moments. Take “Feeling Pinkie Keen”: Pinkie Pie just lollygagging around, humming while washing her hoof like a kitty or Fluttershy apologizing to the frog. Even “Look Before You Sleep”, my least-favorite episode for tossing established characterizations right out the window, is loaded up with such moments. These moments haven’t been completely jettisoned in S2 but they’ve been heavily sidelined in favor of WARRRRRGH MUST MAEK DIS MOAR EPIC AND REFERENCEZ.
You are free to disagree. But having an opinion you disagree with doesn’t make me or anypony else not-a-brony.
I agree wholeheartedly, the show seems to be taking a little too much on references and (don’t beat me) fanservice then then the plot. But, I cant blame them, they are trying to please a not expected fan base. I am a brony, and will always be one, but there are some facts you can’t ignore. I’m not saying the new season is bad, but I feel like it plays out like a bad fanfic *sometimes*.
For any idiot that thinks this show is stupid, doesn’t get the message. This show is about the developments of friendships that bring this community together by posting clips, create viral videos and art and talk about the show without negativity. I love this show, so beat it. I don’t give one shit of what anybody says. Try watching the show for a change.
YEEEEAAAH! We are Bronies united and we are here to stay!
Woot!!
Nothing’s gonna separate me and Rainbow Dash. XD
yea until the next 4 years which the show will probably die out :/
hate to break it

so I guess this shows that “bronies” are more concerned about circle jerking themselves than actually enjoying the show?

thank you sir =, you give me hope
obliviously obvious troll is so goddam obvious
LETS US HUG HIM, SO HE CAN BE LOVED AND TOLERATED

When I become animator my dream is to have Fan-base half as cool as bronies.

…Sorry, but I’m just gonna tolerate him. Him and his terrible lack of punctuation.

Tolerating you then. I don’t care, we still love it.
family guy is stupid
Thanks for your opinion dude!
even if the 2nd season was bad we would just be discussing season 1 the rest of our lives
I don’t think s2 was so bad
“even if the 2nd season was bad”
More songs, more pinkie, more shy Fluttershy and problem solved, problem?
Give them time, it took me 9 episodes before I started liking the show.
Give them time, it took me 9 episodes before I started l1king the show.
arrogant raibowdash
I agree, too much fanservice..
by saying that you show you are the kind of stupid idiots that pollute the fanbase
good job being an example
“By having an opinion that is not approved by the herdthink, you display to the world what a fool you are! We are united! Dissent will not be tolerated, nor loved! Your attitude has been noted!”
Oh good, I’m not the only one who ponifies George Orwell. As I told my brony brother, “Everypony is best pony, but some ponies are more best pony than others.”
Oh, maybe yours is not so much directly from Orwell. Stupid Newspeak, confusing a pegasister.
Such a long rhyme, and no Zecora?!
So….bucking…beautiful.
ಥ u ಥ
“Even if the season had failed” Why is everypony freaking out? I think season 2 has been really good so far.
Same.
Same here, still a Brony and manlier than ever!
I think it’s in case the total quality of the season isn’t as good as we thought it would be. So far though, it’s even better than season 1.
Past tense dude, past tense
*EPICBROHOOF* this is pure fact
If Jason needs help,Lauren is one phone ccall away.They are real life friends so they talk and help each other.
*Sees Phoe smiling at Seth at the bottom*
Quick, everypony get pitchforks and ducktape. Phoe’s going to snap again soon.
Secure the closet! Make sure she does not lay a hoof on that rope!
What’s that?
Oh god, she found the rope. We’re doomed.
I’m totally liking the second season.
My Little Pony is the only reason I wake up on a Saturday morning.
I always wait and watch the youtube downloads Saturday night, lest my parents catch me watching My Little Pony in the living room on a Saturday morning…
I’m with McCloud

I’m finding Season 2 better than Season 1 until now.
Love and toleration plz. Don’t kill me.
Season 2 a failure? Are you kidding me!?
This.
And Pinkie.
And A pony played be Brian Blessed.
oh hell yes!
Hmm, i better whine about something new/different and make a scene for attention on an internet comment page!
better whine about there “not being enough pinkie” without considering theres more than half the season to go still!

*lip wobbles*
Lauren Faust left?! Oh noes! When?
*morphs into Slowpoke and goes to cry in the corner*

Am I the only one who read the entire thing in Zecora’s voice?
i read it in a deep-voiced-guy-that-narrates-the-christmas-movies kidna voice
people have opinions, mine is Season 2 is really amazing. remember bronies some of us can’t live up to our words of: Love and Tolerate but you can, I can we all can if we actually try. Or let peer pressure get to you.
beside that comment was bad and I tried to sound inspirational and failed
IDAGF.jpeg
I like Season 2, I don’t really see the problem. But on that note BRONIES FOREVER!
*Still singing* * We are the bronies….* We are bronies and we are here to stay
*Nods approvingly* I’m going to love AND tolerate the buck out of haters!

*wipes a tear from eye and applauds*
So I guess I wasn’t the only who wrote a poem about the season premiere based on the Night Before Christmas poem
Is that Dave Strider in the middle there?
dsjfalghafdkgj i thought i was the only one who saw that (oX
I like both the first and second seasons, but this poem is stupid
dude…this made me cry. I’m so proud of being a brony. BRO HOOF!!
Woah wait what? what happened to Faust?
Buck yea!
Everypony, sing along to the OFFICIAL EQUESTRIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM! http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=/?gl=SE&hl=sv&hl=sv&gl=SE#/watch?v=fwERapuM17k
