I can only assume that the ending of MLP means our long national nightmare is over.

It won't end until they follow it up with something that lowers the bar back to their previous standards.

Speaking of shows that run for ages, My Little Pony: Friendship is magic ended today after 9 years and 222 episodes. And like a star that just turned into a white dwarf this fandom is going to take a long time to cool off. Expect non stop pony talk for years.



As I understand, Hasbro has made it clear that the My Little Pony franchise will continue in some form in due time. Even if they make an honest effort to maintain the level of quality which enabled Friendship is Magic to attract a significant adult fanbase (a pretty big "if", all things considered), a big chunk of those fans will be crying bloody murder over it being different.

I did fall asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter
in my grandmother's journal.

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...
For better or worse, US TV is slowly getting more British-like.

Like back in the day they wouldn't be pretending The X-Files revival is literally adding new seasons to the show; that 6-episode long (lol) "10th season" would've been an "X-Files Miniseries Event" and then the followup "11th season" would have been the start of a whole new show called "The X-Files: The New Conspiracy" or something.

Imagine if we lived in a world where Doctor Who only had 2 seasons, that's it no more, 26 episodes total at most. No more scarf wearing weirdos, just a long forgotten show from the 60's that no one cares about. What a beautiful world.

British show: no one gives a flying poo poo.

American show: beloved around the globe for 30+ years.

Ain't it weird how that works you jealous hounds?

I'm reasonably sure that "faggishly" is a homophobic slur, and that you are an idiot. Please use this free time to wash, probably for the first time, that anime pillow of yours you mentioned. User loses posting privileges for 3 days.

Rainbow Dash turned into Capt Marvel? Twilight Sparkle becomes some kind of princess? The loving schlub dragon becomes a gaydream beefcake?

The gently caress happened to this show? No wait, dont.

"I couldn't stop saying aloud how miscast Jim Carrey was!"
I'm not up on the history of radio, but did similar laments get lobbed at the staples of broadcasting back in the pre-TV era? Weren't there long-running radio dramas as well, or were they mostly written with the serial format in mind?

Also, I think that the natural inclination for the (American) creatives and execs who followed a phenomenon like Gunsmoke was to hope that their next project could be The One that caught on like that, with the precedent having been set that one series could run for that long and sustain an audience/profitability.

Glad someone is keeping up on this.

Geez, 9 years? It still feels like it was recent times when we were collectively wondering what the hell was up with those banner ads and avatars, like it was a meta joke or something.

Speaking of...

Confess when you started watching. And when you stopped. (Was it after the SA-brony expulsion?)
