Old Fluttershy 349 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 So do you think Hasbro should have held off on season 4 and Alicorn Twilight? I'm saying this because Twilight's Kingdom ended the show in a pretty perfect way. Twilight finally found her role as princess, Discord finally found the true friendship. And now they spread the magic of friendship throughout Equestria. Sounds like a pretty good ending to a very good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anilewe 2,178 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 (edited) You know... The same thing could have been said about Season 3 finale - Twilight's destiny was to become a princess and learn about the magic of friendship. Discord became good. Equestria was peaceful. Celestia was ruling along with Luna. Everything seemed to be perfect. Every season finale ends something and could have been the end of the show. But as long as there are unanswered questions and writers have ideas for more episodes - show still goes on. Edited August 28, 2014 by Anilewe 4 Fan of Applejack? Join us!

Abia 258 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 They definitely aren't ending the show while it's reeling in so much money. I personally am greatly looking forward to season five. If Twilight has found her place, what about the other mane six? Rainbow Dash becoming a Wonderbolts, Fluttershy singing, Raroy becoming a famous designer? And how will Discord behave now that he's truly reformed? Will he still be a troublemaker, or will part of his personality completely turn around? There are lots of things the show can still add on to, even if our main protagonist has essentially found her place in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrymeStriker 408 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 No. The CMC have yet to receive their cutie marks, Rainbow Dash is still an obnoxious, self-indulgent bottle of insecurity, and Fluttershy lacks substantial backstory. Ending the show after season 3 would've been a terrible idea, and season 4 even more so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overdrive 5,366 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 I believe the phrase "The Show Must Go On" is applicable here. That's how they keep you hooked: the cliffhangers. That's how every show keeps you hooked. "I'd rather trust and regret, than doubt and regret." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastel 7,630 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 That wouldn't have made a good series finale. What about the castle? Where does it come from? As some already said: what about the CMC? The mane 5's dreams? Starswirl? etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiteporte 591 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 I agree with Blobulle. However, I think you should bear in mind that that kind of series never have a good finale. That's because since they don't know when it's going to end, they will always keep it open ended. A few examples of series like this : Star Trek ( until Next Generations) Stargate SG1 and a lot of others, lol. Only series which have the full storyline written in advance with a preset number of seasons will have a perfect finale (Babylon 5 for example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowPirateX 600 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 Think about it; if season 4's ending was that awesome, how could season 5's ending turn out? I personally think season 4's ending was both conclusive and open-ended. "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" ~ Optimus Prime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BastementSparkle 20,335 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 Nope. The CMC haven't gotten their marks, Rainbow and Rarity still haven't completely fulfilled their dreams, we don't know exactly how our beloved ponies will go about spreading friendship yet, we don't know where this castle came from, we don't know... Too many questions. Too many things to explore. Too many new places to see, new adventures to have, new friends to meet. This show is still filled to the brim with possibility. Ending it now would be a crime. Twilight is best pony. Why hello MLPForums! What have ya been up to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Fluttershy 349 August 28, 2014 Author Share August 28, 2014 Well since this is turning into a question forum how about the BIG one. Fluttershy's backstory or at least some big character development on her part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklingSwirls 21,600 August 28, 2014 Share August 28, 2014 Yeah, I don't think the show should have ended either, for all the reasons listed above. There's just so much more that can be done! ֍֎֍֎ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
