I just have to say...I loved the finale. So much. It just gets better each time I watch it! So awesome!

Welcome! I don't roleplay much myself, but there are a lot of folks that do, and I do know it's a LOT of fun! We're pretty friendly here.

Greetings from a fellow ADD brony!

Oh wow. This is where my age really betrays me! That would have to be Advanced Dungeons & Dragons on Intellivision.

I would desperately love to see a Celestia/Luna episode. It might even make for a great movie, should Hasbro decide to fund it. I've been reading a lot of of Celestia & Luna interaction fanfics, and I've discovered my appetite is absolutely voracious for such material. I've seen so many different depictions of them, and they all of their own sort of charm. We still have only seen Luna and Celestia interacting at the end of s01e02, but nothing since. I'm hoping we'll see some more of Celestia and Luna in the season finale. I also hope we'll see more of them in Season 3! I have a little Celestia/Luna animation project I'm doing, and I'm hoping it's going to be epic.

You know you're a MLP:FIM fan when the use of "anypony, somepony, everypony and nopony" seems perfectly legitimate. You know you're a fan when you have to concentrate very hard on not typing or saying said words at work.

I'll be there again, too! I have to come back! (The nice thing is, I've learned my way around Manehatten a bit. )

I'll have to keep an eye out for you folks, then! Yay! This is going to be so much fun!! I fly out later today! If all goes well, I'll be wearing a Heartmend badge (hopefully I finish it in time!), probably an Applejack cutie mark button, and some manner of pony shirt.

Hi everypony! My wife and I are going to BroNYCon in New York, NY this Saturday, January 7th, and I was wondering if any of you will be there! We are very friendly and silly folks, so there's no reason to be shy. Even if you are shy, that's just more reason you should say hello! It's no fun to be at a convention and not have anyone to hang out with.

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it's called the present. It's more important that we enjoy the here and now. It doesn't make sense to live in the past, because we cannot affect what is already done. If we spend too much time worrying about the future, that leaves us with less time enjoying the time that true matters--right now. Enjoy each moment, treasure it. Live in each moment--not the past, not the future, but right now. Stop, close your eyes and listen to the sounds going on right around you, right now. Acknowledge your thoughts and worries, but let them go. Realize they are not happening right now. It's senseless to get worked up over them. For me, this fandom has so deeply touched my heart and soul, I can say with absolute confidence I will carry this love with me for the rest of my days. As far as "will the fandom survive?" I think it certainly will. MLP has been going on since the mid-eighties, and especially with this latest iteration I highly doubt it will end anytime soon. In fact, I would not be surprised to see a lot of very young artists emerging a few years from now with a very heavy MLP:FIM-influenced drawing style.

Bear in mind we didn't get confirmation for Season 2 till closer to the end of Season 1. For all we know, the Hub orders 13 episodes at a time. I'm willing to wager Season 3 will ultimately end up with 26 episodes again. I think they just need to justify it with ratings as Season 2 progresses (seeing as how Hasbro is a publicly traded company, they need numbers to prove their decisions to investors.) I too believe that worrying about the future is senseless. All we can do is keep doing whatever we can do to support the show.

15 years old...I hate to be the doubtful one, but I have to wonder how much of the story is real, and how much is the kid being an attention horse. Some families are really messed up, though, so I can't completely rule it out.

I wouldn't say I dislike it. I'd say it was my least favorite. All throughout Seasons 1 and 2, every single episode has managed to make me smile and chuckle at worst, and laugh out loud at best. At the end of each and every episode, I'm smiling! This is why I absolutely love this show. I hope that puts my words in perspective. This episode still made me laugh and smile. It's just not my absolute favorite.

Man, no matter where I look, people feel about the same. Definitely not a top-notch episode. There were parts I thought were great, and some parts I thought fell sorta flat. I'm seriously hoping that episodes only get better from here. Was it awful? No. I was entertained; it did make me chuckle at times. It's probably Owl's Well That Ends Well-level for me. It's definitely not one of those episodes you'd show a friend to convince them that the show is awesome. I do hope that if Merriwether Williams has written other episodes that this is more of an exception than the rule.

The wife and I are definitely going! We're flying in from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
