I don't know about what other people think, but I love almost all cartoons, always have. Any time I'm just flipping through the channels on the TV and I come across some sort of animated show I've never seen before, there's about a 95% I'll watch the entire thing. I don't know why, but I've always found animated shows and movies fasinating. Disney, Pixar, Dreamworks, Cartoon Network, anime, Looneytoons, Nickelodeon, and many others. I just love animated shows and I love Friendship is magic because the show is utterly brilliant! The characters, the story, the beautiful simplicity of the animation, what's not to love? It's generated this awesome fanbase of exceedingly awesome people that's growing by the thousands. Plus the show is just wholesome. It's not too often, especially nowadays, when you come across something so pure and original. Making someone laugh in a cartoon is easy, but making them smile when you're not trying to be funny is very difficult, and Friendship is Magic pulls it off well.
