Just something I thought would make a fun discussion factoring in characters from other properties and seem like they would be uninterested in MLP. But for reasons whether the quality of G4 or some softness find themselves enjoying it.
A couple of contrasting examples to begin with:
1. Kim Possible. Yeah, Ron and Rufus would strike me as enjoying even the early Gen shows. Heck I imagine their occasional teacher Steve Barkin to be a fan. Even having students doing related essays from time to time.
No, much like how she is a closet Cuddle Buddies fan, I think she would enjoy say FiM or most of it, but keep it on the down low and claim she follows it for her boyfriend's sake.
2. Believe it or not, I think Beavis from well Beavis and Butthead would find any of the shows appealing. He tends to be more sensitive in the later portions of the original series, even say enjoying the kindergarten activities or Dr. Seuss.
But what inspired this idea especially the 2022 segment where the duo watch Dynamite from BTS and Beavis likes the video much to Butthead's disappointment. So yeah, just imagine him humming the MLP tunes.
