Hello there! I found this forum literally a few minutes ago and decided to join. My sister has been a fan of MLP for quite some time but I just recently became one. I became curious after she kept telling me how good the show is so I thought I'd give it a try. She played an episode for me and I was surprised to find myself immensely enjoying it. I just finished watching the first season (I'm late to the party, I know) but I just can't believe there's a cartoon today worth watching. I've been a longtime fan of cartoons. As a kid I loved watching The Powerpuff Girls, Courage the Cowardly Dog, The Jetsons and a lot of other great cartoons (I still watch them when they're on Boomerang and CN!) but all cartoons today have extremely bad storylines. MLP is the the only recent cartoon series I've enjoyed in years, the writing is just excellent. Anyway, my favorite is Fluttershy and my least favorite is Rarity. I'm a 20 year old female and I'm glad to be a part of this community Now I'm off to watch the second season!
