I know right? It's literally the Teen Titans Go of My Little Pony. It's awful. I can't stand it. As for the remake, yeah it has no reason to exist.

Because the main show had already gone on for too long and since S6 the show has been really inconsistent. And honestly S6 and S9 in particular were horrible

I've enjoyed Pony Life more than the main show for the last few years

Why I mean thay stopped  macking new episodes right when things where getting good.

Seasons 1 and 8 were what sucked not 6 and 9.

Indeed. Though I wish they had taken more of a similar approach to what the comics did.

Because the show started in 2010 and it was getting to the time to end. What they should have done is work on G5. It's not a big deal if we had to wait for a long time if they were working on it.

They didn't make a remake, they made a spin-off. Say it with me, spin-off. And the simple answer to the question is marketing. They thought a show promoting "simpler, cuter" toys was the right marketing decision at the time. We also have another season out now in the form of a comic, so another season for the show would've been redundant, especially with a new generation on the way.
