season 3 sadness

[Morager 149]

Well im really sad now. I found out i dont have the hub channel, which isnt that bad because i was just going to buy the extra channels. But it turns out we are locked in a 2 year contract where i cant change it. So no season 3 i dont know what to do. None of my friends are bronys or have hub so theres no one to watch it with. Any ideas please

Use YouTube... It might sound horrible at first, but seriously. I'll bet half the brony community does it. I do, and it's basically the only way for me to watch it, so... Yeah. Also, you could watch a livestream... Equestria Daily usually has some links to good livestreamers.

You don't have to use the TV to support the producers. You can watch it elsewhere first, then buy the DVDs later (they're not expensive, either).

Yeah, contracts can be a bit of a pain at times.

 

I think that the MLP forums here actually have a Livestream of every new episode that airs, and I'm sure there are a few others who do it as well. If that doesn't work, someone usually posts it to YouTube within a few hours of it airing.

The Hub is a premium channel on most providers and is usually only available in the United States, so the majority of bronies didn't have the channel when the fandom started out. It was largely because of Youtube (and Hasbro's very lenient attitude towards copyright) that allowed the fandom to expand as it did.

 

The point I'm making is you're not alone, and Youtube and the various dozens of livestreams are there for you. So there's no need to panic. Well, not as much.

You can totes buy the episodes on iTunes, so you don't have to miss out!

 

They'll be yours and yours alone and there ain't noone who can stop you from getting your fix of ponies!

I never use TV, only Youtube. It's just easier. I can pause it, skip the intro, watch it wherever (laptop) and I dont have to watch it right when it airs.

Have no fear, BronyState is here!!!!!! Don't worry friend, you can just tune in live on November 10 on BronyState! I've never used it myself, but from what I've heard, it's the #1 website for bronies to tune in live to new episodes. After that, you can rewatch episodes on YouTube, easy peasy!!! Don't fret friend, you'll get to see Season 3, I guarantee it!!!

 

Oh, here's the link to BronyState, for your convenience!

Pretty much this, I don't ever watch MLP on the hub, even if I think we might have it. Mostly because i know my parents will just barge in randomly. So I just watch it on youtube, its the only place I've ever watched it anyways. So i don't really have any problem with it.

Most of the time I watch it on my ipod to. I haven't really noticed any problems watching it on youtube. Then again I've never watched it on TV so I dunno the difference.

 

but I'm sure within a few hours people will have it on youtube.

If not I will be sad, along with alot of others who don't have/ can't watch it on TV for whatever reason.

Everyone pretty much said it. Youtube. I always watched it there. I've seen it on the telly but i always had an SD Tv, and since Youtube had HD it always looked better on youtube. (now i have an HD TV so it might be better.)

 

But anyways, Just to let you know, if you want to see the episode as soon as its out on youtube, you should check out Equestria Daily on that day. They always post a link to the first videos. Usually the first one that always isn't HD is uploaded about an hour or so after airing. HD is about a couple hours. Then again if you watch it on a live stream, u can watch it as soon as it airs heheh.
