Premieredate has MLP season 8 listed to return on March 3rd, 2018. I am very excited for more pony and hope that it is true.

Less than 2 months for the return of MLP? Best news I’ve had all day.

Looking forward to it - managed so far to avoid seeing any of the leaked eps (although that can be hard when Youtube pops them on autoplay

[The Kaeya Simp 13,988]

I am thankfull, I feel almoast as bad as during the hiatus

[cmarston1 5,959]

Hopefully this is true, because given what we know about the season due to legal information being spread, and people saying good things about leaked episodes (that I haven't watched and don't want to spoil anyone, just saying that I have heard good things about some of the episodes of season 8 that were looked) I am curious to see what the season will be like.

Sweet! Can't wait the rebirth of fanmade content, when bronies get some new material to work with.

[Rhythm Red 6,484]

Excited! More pony is always good news.

[Buttonmash1973 1,026]

Another spring another round of FiM incoming

[Steve Piranha 29,414]

Hopefully it's true. I'd like to start with my poneh, as it's possible my last few years with them. At least the wait will be a little more bearable, as we'll get the first EG special a few weeks prior 

[Prospekt 11,018]

AW YEAH! March sounds good to me. It's actually a little sooner than I thought. I was expecting later in March or in April, which has been the trend for the past couple of seasons. I've heard some really good things about the leaked episodes (and watched one that I thought was good) so I'm very optimistic. This could be a great year!

Can't wait to finnaly watch the season8, I've heard a lot of interesting theories about what could happen there and I hope they'll come true.

[MAIKUN 262]

Can’t wait....literally. I was hoping it would be serialized. 

[Tacodidra 61,040]

Finally! I have missed the ponies so much. Looks like the next few months will be great for MLP: season 8, the new EqG special and the YouTube series!

[Sovereign Leader Rarity 12,006]

I can't wait to see what they do in terms of plot this season.

Honestly, I'm really just waiting for the Season 8 finale and the return of Tirek.

Here's hoping that it's as great as Season 7.

[King of Canterlot 9,603]

ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy that's good! Finally an end is in sight for this hiatus! 

I'm really looking forward to watching season 8, especially because I haven't seen any of the leaked episodes so I have no idea what season 8 is going to be about going into it

I haven't watched any of the leaked epesodes because I like starting on epesode 1

[Cash In 22,192]

It's airing a lot earlier than I expected it to. Still, that is pretty good news.

[Ganondorf8 11,259]

Guess they wanted to have it get underway much sooner than what they usually do because of the unfortunate leaks last month. In any case, the wait isn't as long as what we've come to expect around this time during the hiatus.

[ggg-2 3,552]

I'm just disappointed because, unless i'm pleasantly wrong and just based on the synopses, it looks like this'll be the first season since season 1 where there's no appearances from Shining Armor and Cadence. (not counting the new opening) Come to think of it, it doesn't seem as if we're getting any Wonderbolt appearances either.

Uhm, can you explain the latter two? What kind of EG special, and are you refering to the ~2 mins EG episodes("season 1") as "YouTube series"?

Also, is there any info on the release for the next EG movie?

There is a 44 minute EQG special titled "forgotten friendship" dropping in February

With the special, I meant "Forgotten Friendship", and with the YouTube series, I indeed meant the two-minute shorts. Eleven of those were actually first released on an app, but with ten of them available on YouTube now, I'm sure we'll see all-new ones soon. I'm not sure when the Choose Your Own Ending ones will be released on YouTube (and if they are part of the same series), but at least a couple of regular EqG shorts were leaked so we know there's more to come.

I haven't heard anything about a new movie.

That's good news but I thought it was going to be on March 31st, so that's a potential season premiere date until Zap2it or Discovery Family think that March 31st is the right date to premiere the 8th season of My Little Pony.

Spike has three episodes this season!! One without the Mane 6 or Starlight!

[AlbaTross 1,586]

Sweet!  I normally like to keep up to date with episodes but I decided I prefer to see them at least within the same ballpark of when they are intended to release, so I chose not to watch any of the leaked episodes, plus I'd rather see them in their full glory with the background music.  The internet has made it very difficult to avoid spoilers so I've come across a few, and I hate spoilers so this whole leak business has left me a little sour.   But, I've managed to avoid the bulk of spoilers (I think), so I look forward on being caught up when the season officially airs.  

[SaburoDaimando 1,196]

Seriously.  This has got to be the shortest and least painful hiatus ever.  We have gotten since the end of the Season the MLP Movie on DVD/Blu-Ray, Equestria Girls shorts, and now the Equestria Girls Forgotten Friendship special coming up.  And to top it all off, this year is MLP's 35th Anniversary.  And we're gonna get a boatload of My Little Pony content this year that will make the last 7 years look small.
