Stuck in a Beaker 27,705 January 17, 2021 Share January 17, 2021 My Favourite Mane 6 Pony Fluttershy How did you find MLP Forums? I was searching for a MLP Forum via DuckDuckGo How you became a fan of My Little Pony Ending November 2020, we got here a new pretty harsh lockdown because of the worldwide pandemic. So being locked to my apartment almost for 24/7 and almost no chance to get out for something else I was trying to entertainment myself. In the beginning of December, I was watching some AMVs at night on YouTube. After this one video there was a recommendation for something called “Friendship is Musical”. I had no idea what it was, but the title sound interesting especially because the lack of musicals in my life in 2020. So, I was clicking on it and took me a moment to realize what I was watching but I liked it. So, I was watching all what Tridashie had to offer on his channel. After this YouTube had me obviously marked for MLP because there was now a recommendation for reaction on MLP episode on YouTube. After I came that far I was also checking it out. Watching the episode “Filly Vanilli” as the first episode may have spoiled me quite a bit, but for someone who struggled with shyness in his childhood and youth this was most likely the best episode to drag me into this series. After watching this reaction, I wanted to see the whole episode and not only the bits and pieces of that reaction. So I was searching and found the whole series on Netflix. At the beginning I hat to remind myself, that this series was target to an audience much younger than me, but after some episodes I was fully into the show. I could continue farther about the highlights which made my fall in love with it of the show like John de Lancies involvement but this text is getting a bit long by now so let’s shall say the rest is history Hi there I’m new here and I guess quite late to the party. I described my way into the show in the upper text. So far I have seen the series and I guess the movies (still kind unsure If I watched everything). From the MLP community I saw some bits and pieces so far but this quite unknown territory to me so far. So I hope I picked the right place with this forum My intention for joining is to have somebo .. uh some ponys to talk about the show. Please be patience with me, English is not my native language. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuck in a Beaker 27,705 January 17, 2021 Author Share January 17, 2021 (edited) Thanks all for the warm welcome here *Muffins for all* @TomDaBombMLP Yes, the show makes me feel happy. MLP can teach much, even if the morals/lessons are not difficult and some people like me got them taught from their parents, but most of the adults in my professional life do not care for them. I really wish, the show was watched by more people. When I’m watching this show, I really have the feeling the creators wanted to teach those lessons to help children and make the world maybe a better place. It would have been so much easier just to go for the money as so many other things do … And this happened for a show born from a toy line. Well, do not judge a book by its cover! @Midnight Danny Thanks you too. Yes, it is and at least something positive from this pandemic in 2020 Edited January 17, 2021 by Astral Soul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to watch the show after I got to know about John de Lancie’s Q personality being in FIM from a YouTube video. That really proved the show was more than just a children cartoon.
