Wanna hear an unpopular opinion? I don't like Lauren Faust. I respect her for what she done to MLP. But it dosen't change the fact, that i simply don't like her.
I think she did a good job at creating and establishing the characters/universe, but her writing isn't that good to be totally honest. I find Meghan McCarthy and a few other writers on the show much better than Lauren. Oh yeah, and I totally agree about the EQLA thing.
Shrug. I thought Rarity's plight in last week's episode might've actually been a not so subtle stand in for what happened to Lauren. Even if it wasn't intentional, I'd still be sympathetic to somebody in that position.
The thing is, while i can understand her frustrations, she needs to realise when to let it go. Lauren hasn't let go of it in the last 3-4 years and makes passive agressive tweets ever since. That's not very professional.
