  1. Ok, I finally brought myself to watch those last three episodes. The finale was good, but not as great as I've been hearing. Probably without a fandom to create that expectation it would have been better. Well, it's my fault for not watching it earlier, so I can't complain. Guess the experience is forever ruined.

    1. @nerthos It was a LOT better the day it came out, it was literally an "omgomgomg best thing EVER moment" for me. Looking back though, if I had watched it *now*, the fandom would have totally killed it for me.

      1. @minti Exactly. It's totally my fault for being lazy. I guess I'll have to wait 40 years and watch it again.

        1. @nerthos I doubt we'll all remember the show in 40 years. xD

          1. @minti Don't be too sure...

            1. @lovetolerateandsquee Well, a few will. Just so they can all be hipster and be all "I REMEMBER WHEN G4 STARTED A REVOLUTION, IT MADE WHAT YOU G7 YOUNGINS ARE WATCHIN NOW. NOW GET AWF MY LAWN."

              1. @minti G4 will probably be the only good gen. Anything past there (with the exeption of a G4.5) will be terrible, most likely. The thing that made the show so awesome in the first place was Lauren Faust, and I doubt she'll be back in future generations.

                1. @lovetolerateandsquee I'd like to see them try and reboot the series again, whole new ponies, whole new adventures. It would be neat.

                  1. @minti Like they did with G4? Well, yeah, that'd be awesome. But again, they'd need Faust, and that's unlikely.

                    1. @lovetolerateandsquee Yeah, kind of like what they did with G4. Hopefully it stays the same style though, I adore this shows animation style now (and the main reason I can't watch any previous gens. It's so baaad.)

                      1. @minti Right. If they had done everything they did with G4 except change the art style, none of us would be here.

                2. @lovetolerateandsquee I think you mean "Lauren Faust, Peace Be Upon Her".

          2. @minti I have a particularly good memory for these things. I'm sure I will barely remember what happens in the episodes, which is exactly why it will be good. I literally remember conversations from years ago, so remembering to watch a show again will not be a problem.

            1. @nerthos So you'll remember JUST enough to watch it, but not enough to re-spoil it? :p

              1. @minti Exactly. I managed to forget all but the main plot of Shaman King in about 6 years, so I'll be able to forget enough of MLP:FiM in 40.
