When watching older generations of MLP, have you ever felt sad?

I get sad for a different reason than everyone else in this thread.

I'm like, "This franchise used to be so wholesome. Why does such a toxic fandom have to surround it?"

I always feel a little nostalgic when I watch G3, it takes me back to being a little kid again, when life was so much more carefree and simply easy.

I can also agree with this.

I get really sad watching the G3.5+ Newborn Cuties webcasts, same feeling I got from the *G4* live-action performance.... No, wait... sad isn't the right word. Disturbed? Borderline terrified? Yeah, that's the ticket.

Okay, making jokes aside, no, I never felt *sad* from watching MLP. More annoyed at how hard it is to find some of the more obscure entries in the MLP back-catalogue. Especially the old G1 comics which were only done in some European countries for some reason yet are the only sources for worldbuilding lore like the sparkle-eyed ponies and whatnot.
