When did this show take flight?

​I was interested to know when this show got really popular I just got into it and it is awesome. Some really cool people like this show

When 4chan started posting crap about it after the first few episodes.

^ That.

If it wasn't for /b/ and /co/ exploding with ponies, nobody would really know about the show, except for the parents who had kids who watched it.

Gah... everybody gives 4chan credit. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. I found the show on YouTube as a related video to something completely unrelated... of course, YouTube comments are just as bad as 4chan most of the time.

If you personally discovered the show elsewhere, 4chan pretty much made that possible. I agree that it's the proverbial toilet of the internet, but credit where credit is due.

Literally i just found out about the show from seeing a t shirt in the mall then asking my friend what a brony was. I was pretty much oblivious to what it was all about. One day wondered what all the fuss was about then here i am lol. Edited July 12, 2012 by GoneAirbourne
