So far we know that John De Lancie is coming back, there will be a Scootaloo Episode, a lot of the writers left and they've only ordered 13 episodes. Trixie was hinted at by Thiessen. Also, Megan McCarthy is story editor, woot!

I'm just anxious for an official announcement, detailing when it's airing (Summer vs Fall), and how many episodes in total (13 vs 26). Season 2 was announced during the middle of March last year, so since we're at the end of March now, I'm hoping that we get an official announcement in the near future.

To be honest, I'm kinda hoping for an Autumn release, as opposed to S2 ending and S3 immediately starting only a few weeks later.

 

It is nice to have new episodes coming out regularly, but new episodes create new cannon, which makes it more difficult for fannon to evolve. For example, the majority of my favorite fanfics were written, or at least started, during the Summer last year, between S1 and S2. A good friend of mine who writes fanfics even said that it's just much easier to write when you don't have to worry about an episode coming out three days later and invalidating some major plot point in a story.

 

An Autumn release would be more like a creativity break - take a break from new episodes for a few months, and let everyone's imaginations soar. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, makes one desire for more, and therefore, there would be more original fan works from the community as we await the next season.

I get what you're saying. I totally understand that it is probably best for the creators and the fans as well but...

Well, there is a massive amount of fan-made content out there that you can use to help you survive between seasons. You can:

  • Read fan fiction
  • Collect fan-made artwork
  • Listen to fan-made music
  • Play fan-made games
  • Talk to people on fan-made websites (like this one)
If you do all of this, then, before you know it, it will be time for Season 3!

 

Besides, think about it. If Season 3 played during the summer, then you would probably have to wait through at least winter and spring with no new episodes. Tradeoffs, my friend.... Tradeoffs......

How do we know that writers left the show, as one person mentioned? And only 13 episodes?

 

 

We do know one left from an interview. And the rumor about season 3 only having 13 episodes is that they only need that much to have Friendship is magic on other channels.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm looking forward to Season 3 a lot. It has been confirmed that there will be more songs, like, almost every episode. I'm also hoping that we see Pinkie's family again, even if her flashback wasn't real and it was Pinkie just being Pinkie.

Those two details are worrisome; I'd be terribly sad if there wasn't a season 4.

 

A few months ago there was a post on EqD about an email from one of the staff members, but it was removed shortly afterwards. It did confirm that at the time, S3 was only thirteen episodes long. However, that could mean a few different things:

  • S3 is a summer season. Since summer seasons are rather short (about four months at most), 13 episodes would be about the max you could fit in there. If this is the case, there could be an S4 in the Fall or Winter.
  • Hasbro only orders half-seasons, and is/was waiting to make a decision on if they should older the second half or not. If this is the case, the other half will likely be ordered, and S3 would end up being a regular 26-episode Autumn/Winter season.
  • S3 is only gonna be a regular Autumn season, but only will have 13 episodes. If this is the case, the show could be ending, or will be broadcast in less frequent intervals.
Those are all possibilities, and nothing more than speculation. Until an official announcement is made about what S3 will/won't be, no one knows for sure. Edited by joeyh3

I know it might have only 13 episodes, but where did you get this information about several show writers quitting? And wich ones are those?

 

Anyways, I actually believe and hpe that next episode will be a Scootaloo episode, so we wont have to wait until next season. And Discord coming back sounds awesome!
