Banul 3,831 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 I know exactly why I watch. I watch because it's a show that I enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexamena 391 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 At first, i didn't know why i decided to watch. Mainly curiosity i think and a saturday morning with nothing to do. My first thoughts were, 'well their eyes are way too big and their muzzles are way too small but their feet look proper(compared the mlp i was used to) and the animation style is interesting and wow their personalities are cute and haha there was a funny clever thing that pink one said so hey i think i like this show!' And then i watched another and another and then i found it on netflix so it was a new obsession after that. I watch because i like the cheeriness and positivity of the show and characters. i like the fandom and being a part of the fandom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sazama Ichida 2,367 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 Maybe because the show is awesome? Great characters, great stories, I could go on. What's not to love? 5 The White Shinigami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephenP 106 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Every once in a blue moon I'll be watching the show and start thinking "What the heck am I doing watching this kind of stuff??"Then I'm reminded why I love it so much, whether it be a really good joke or I just catch how over-the-top the animation can be sometimes. Then the thought becomes "Yup. That's why." 1 "Life's hard, shouldn't you be, too?" - Markiplier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PonyTonite 30 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 While I'm watching MLP sometimes I wonder why am I watching this? Then curl up into a fetal position and shake back and forth. Not at all, I inherintly know why I like the show at a basic level, and it's becuase it makes me feel good, or it's fun to watch. I think this becuase I love the shows visual aesthetic, and I find the character interactions to be entertaining. I've always put good character interactions and visuals over top of like, cohesive, tight nit narratives, or large over-arching plot lines, so this kind of show already appealed to me long before I had even seen it. It's just good clean fun.

It's just good clean fun. I also like it because of this. It's a very well written show that feels like it could be a "grown up" show. It just has these attributes while having "girly" pastel ponies. It's just a change of pace and I love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VengefulStrudel 1,495 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Nope, never experienced that myself. I had fun and enjoyed watching it from the first episode I watched, so, I know why I keep watching~ Check out my art thread for some cute ponies, cookies and boops.

Sugar Cube 4,843 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Not usually unless I'm watching Princess Spike or any of the relatively few " bad" episodes that I don't really care for. But then I quickly realize that five years later, MLP:FiM is still highly entertaining and among the best animated cartoons of this decade. And cartoons are actually quite good these days, so that says something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerGeekGuy 4,662 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Sometimes, but they don't last all that long. I just get back to enjoying the show. "The place where you made your stand never mattered.

Cyandashie 128 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Whenever anyone sings in MLP, I usually fast forward it (I have a DVR that can pause, rewind, fast-forward, etc.) or mute it. Not usually unless I'm watching Princess Spike or any of the relatively few " bad" episodes that I don't really care for. But then I quickly realize that five years later, MLP:FiM is still highly entertaining and among the best animated cartoons of this decade. And cartoons are actually quite good these days, so that says something. I disagree about cartoons being "good" these days. Now they are terrible. I mean, just look at how Cartoon Network was in 1992-2012, and look at it now. It really disgusts me. Celebrating eight years of bronyhood, 29 October 2012-present.

Justin_Case001 4,907 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 I get what you mean. I've had a couple of moments, not so much when watching the show, but when making my MLP Redbubble art, having a tough time, getting stuck and frustrated, and I stop and wonder for why I'm working so hard on ponies. Are they really worth it? Are they really as wonderful and awesome as I think? And then I pull up a 5 second clip on youtube, maybe Dashie's impression of Twi, maybe "..and then I said, oatmeal, are you craz...?!", and then I know, yes, they are worth it. I think it's the same thing anyone goes through when they put a lot of work into something. I'm sure there were many days working on The LOTR or The Hobbit when Peter Jackson just said, "Why the f*ck do I do this?" But then you see it come together, and remember. But ultimately, for me, when I have a moment in which I wonder if the ponies are really worth the effort, it's always a moment like this: But when I watch the show, I don't wonder why I'm watching it. It's great. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy wuzzy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz 10 August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 When I first started watching the show, I was trying to keep an open mind but thought it was still kinda weird. As time went on I started caring less and less until I got to the point where I realized that I was having a lot of fun watching the show, looking at art, listening to music, etc. Nowadays, whenever I question why I still watch the show, I immediately tell myself it's because the show makes me happy and I don't really care what other people think.

SquipyCheetah 449 August 22, 2015 Share August 22, 2015 At first, I wondered all the time but that was when I first started watching the show.
