While you being mad is completely understandable, both G5 shows were in production before Chris Cocks took over and virtually everyone agrees that the later episodes of the G5 shows are better than the earlier ones. I don't think Chris had much influence over the quality of the shows. What I feel he is responsible for though is marketing the series and it's sadly starting to make sense now why the shows were never marketed well.

Responding to this again, because guess what we've been told now? It really wasn't about success, he just didn't even care that much from the beginning.

I can't believe it's not from China, a Mexican hat shop recently made a line of hats based on Tell Your Tale available. https://www.tumblr.com/g5mlp/781999422848565248/my-little-pony-tell-your-tale-kids-caps-by-kndit So good to see the G5 merchandise train still going six months after TYT's end.

Very pleased to see that this revival is still being worked on! Totally cool with it being an audio drama as opposed to a series of full animations as I want whatever is best for you and your team!

I believe you misread Shad0w-Galaxy's comment. G5 was originally meant to go on indefinitely, meaning they likely weren't concerned with it being some big hit, they probably just saw it as a way to keep the brand active while giving them a reason to not spend time and money on future generations. They likely wanted things to be that way because of MLP's decline in popularity, but now, things have likely changed because of its resurgence in popularity in China.

Recently, someone who works on preserving Tell Your Tale (their work can be seen in the unreleased third special) and has access to insider knowledge, revealed the reason why they are so passionate about preserving G5 in addition to the true reason why it was screwed over according to inside sources. Back when we first learned of TYT's unfair cancellation, everyone, including me, someone who never bought the narrative of it being because said show and Make Your Mark were supposedly unpopular, thought the reason was due to some kind of underperformance like the G5 series not selling enough toys, the most popular belief among G5 fans as to why it happened. I was NOT expecting this to be the reported reason, Hasbro literally just getting tired and giving up...but looking at how TYT has always been well-viewed and is still being watched (the official TYT channel surpassed 50 million views nearly two months ago) as well as how an official discontinuation of the G5 toy line has yet to be announced with an interest in G5 merchandise still being maintained, it makes sense. Seriously, look at this. https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Collection-Exclusive/dp/B09M7JZG3Z/ref=sr_1_2?sr=8-2 This is a highly popular G4 toy set... https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-MINIS-Collection/dp/B000NDJH1M/ref=sr_1_7?sr=8-7 ...being outsold by a G5 toy set. This is happening when G4 has always been more popular and we've not had any official G5 content in six months. Everything points to the saying, "G5 didn't fail Hasbro, Hasbro failed G5.", being true.

I played the game back when it was new and made a whole review on it. https://mlpforums.com/topic/202390-mlp-a-zephyr-heights-mystery-review/#comment-6218813 In short, thought it was mostly good and an improvement over the first game.

Plushies like these are honestly pretty good to me. https://mlpforums.com/topic/204603-chinese-company-aoger-reveals-new-g5-plushie-bags-and-plushies-for-the-mane-5/#comment-6268090

Um...all of them. No, I'm being serious, the soundtrack for G5 really is awesome to me and there's no song from it I dislike. Magic in Us, I absolutely agree with many that it's one of the best songs, but my all-time favorite is With a Little Creativity.

This plushie is no longer a Target exclusive, it is now available to be purchased on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Blankie-Toddlers/dp/B0DVBZYC14/ref=sr_1_40?sr=8-40
