Hasbro announces PonyChat

[Fhaolan 4,484]

More official stuff from Hasbro... Since I've started posting these, (we've been getting them for awhile, but I wasn't sure what to do with them to be honest) I'm wondering if we need a new section just for official Hasbro/MLP announcements/press releases.

For fans of the popular My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic TV series, Hasbro is introducing PonyChat, the official, kid-hosted My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic aftershow. As one of the newest kid-focused after shows on the market, PonyChat will give My Little Pony fans a behind the scenes opportunity with storywriters, fans and parents to discuss important themes, friendship lessons and character developments throughout the Friendship Is Magic series. PonyChat will consist of a 6 episode mini-series, each hosted by the ultimate fans, 6-10 year old boys and girls, which will be hosted on My Little Pony’s official Facebook Page  and YouTube Channel .

 

Today, the first episode of PonyChat went up! You can view the video at the link here:

The first episode gives a look back at My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic season 7: Not Asking for Trouble. In this episode, the two hosts reenact scenes, have an ice cream social and use pony magic to meet up with some special friends!

Following the first episode, fans can look forward to new episodes of PonyChat coming soon on the My Little Pony site, YouTube and Facebook pages.

Y'know I've always wondered what demographic Child-hosted shows appealed to,

even as a kid, I always preferred the adults and teens running the show.  

As for PonyChat ... I just couldn't watch the whole thing...

It felt too...pandery...if that's a word.

Sounds like Hasbro are in still in denial over who's disposable income is really funding their flagship show.
