Behind the scenes issues from the show and sometimes the fanbase's toxicity aside, I had no regrets.

My guess is that the Main 5 are in their late teens or early 20's.

Who knows? We'll see.

Yeah definitely! Go check it out.

Well crap.

The first episode, Friendship is Magic, obviously.

EVERYTHING! Literally everything....

This look interesting pretty interesting. It does look like an episode will be focusing on Pipp and from the look of her expressions, she looks like she's doesn't care and sense of pride in her whenever she did something wrong. Maybe I'm digging it way too deep into it, but we'll see this will played out in the series.

Ugh, there's so many MLP episodes that I hate, but I'm not even gotta bother talking about it because otherwise I just keep repeating myself.

That's fair.

Well, I guess if the 2017 film would not existed, and Megan wasn't promoted, and the old writers would've stayed, then this thread like this would not existed too lol

Yeah, the reason why old writers left due to they want to move on to their next gig. Megan McCarthy, who was been a writer of the show since Season 1 and became a co-executive producer and story editor since Season 3, left to work on the 2017 film. That, and she became the head of storytelling for Hasbro since 2015. Granted, she wrote story concepts for Season 6, but everything else was done by different people.

You know what? I'll take that too, and this is coming from someone who was not a big fan of Equestria Girls.

Now that I can agree on.

I see.

I understand.

Yeah I agree.

I understand.

I did see all of the responses, and a lot of people do seem to disagree with me, and that's completely fair. I'm happy that the show went on long as it did and my life wouldn't be same if wasn't for this show. Apologies if I come across as a bit jaded here when making this thread here. I don't want to come across as flamebaiting, just wanna see other person's perspective. For now on, I decided to not make discussions about MLP on here anymore(at least FiM show) and decided to move on.

Well, my opinion has changed a lot since I made that post and I do realized and understand the show was more than Faust's vision and I'm not gonna give Faust all the credit anymore. Even though I'm not a big fan of the direction going on in this show(but that's just me), but I decided to let that whole thing go.

This is probably my last time talking about something FiM related because 1) I don't watch the show anymore and 2) I don't want to talk about the same things for so long to the point it becomes a unhealthy obsession(like Faust good Hasbro bad, Twilicorn, Season 6, blah blah blah) because you guys got the point and I want to move on from it. With that said, this is topic that I had been thinking about for a quite a bit awhile now. Friendship is Magic lasted about 9 years with 222 episodes completed. However, FiM was originally going to end after 65 episodes with 3 full seasons. I just gonna ask you guys this: do you think the show ending at 65 episodes was good enough? Or ending at 222 was good enough for you? I mean, it's guess it depends on the person's perspective on they viewed the show's quality. Some may the quality was consistently good from start to finish. Others may say the quality went after that. For me personally, looking back on it, I think that ending at 65 was good enough run for the show. Don't get me wrong, it's great to see FiM lasted for so long. But at the same time, the more you go on for so long, the more you started to repeat yourself and became stale after awhile. So I think ending at 65 episodes was not a bad idea in hindsight, in my opinion. You guys may think differently, and that's perfectly fine, but what do you think of this? I don't want to come across as/ nor become a Hasbro shill nor a Lauren Faust fanboy in this topic. I just want to have a civilized discussion on the matter. That's all. Let me know.
