Where do you watch ponies?

[Betez 1,734]

Well, when I first started watching ponies, I watched both seasons (at the time there were only 2) in more or less than a week on Netflix. I only had the free month trial, so eventually it ended. I've been watching it on the Hub ever since, although occasionally, I'll watch an episode that I haven't seen in a while on youtube or somewhere. I also record episodes.

[Bucky McGillyCuddy 956]

I live stream it at 1:30 in the morning. I watch it on Hax Mega's Ustream channel. The quality is just a little bit better than what is is over at Bronystate.

 

Then i'll usually download the 1080 version off of Youtube and re-watch it later that day.

Old episodes I watch on Youtube, on my iPod, in my bed. New ones I either watch on bronystate or Youtube, one or two the hub. But now I can watch them all live because my awesome anime class ended last week, that made me miss MLP episodes, but since it ended saturday is free again and I can watch the next two live!

[Fridge 382]

I wait until EQD posts a link to youtube for the episode, and I watch it in my living room on my monitor (I don't have and dont want a tv).

As for spoilers etc, I just avoid threads on here that have the episodes title and not go on any MLP related sites until I've seen it.

Being from the UK, no hub ofc, so I get mine from itunes. I then convert them into a non-crap format which doesn't require that heap of *squee* to view and then I watch them on the night of whichever day itunes decides to release them, just before I go to bed. Much prefer night time watching to day time. This does mean dodging all pony related websites for a little while though.

I watch them either on TV Channel 259(Verizon FIOS) or www.mlp-fim.com which has all the episodes that are linked to youtube basically.

 

But for all new episode days, i wake up early just to watch it

[dekutree64 713]

I have a full collection on my hard drive, saved from youtube. So much easier than swapping DVDs around, or scheduling my life around broadcast TV. I usually watch on bronystate for new episodes.

 

Sad thing is, we do get the hub channel, but the cable company here has it set up where you need a $10/month rental box for every TV you want to watch it on. I'd rather not bother anyone else to use their TV, and they don't get them posted on netflix fast enough to watch there, and they're way too expensive on itunes... honestly, if they'd just offer 720p youtube quality for $1 an episode, I'd pay it. But even that's pretty steep now that we know there'll be at least 91 episodes.

[Thundershock 310]

The first time iv'e watched all the episodes of season 3 so far was on youtube except for the crystal empire .I used to watch episodes on netflix,but it does'nt work anymore so i watch it on cable TV or on DVDs i have.

[Soundgarden 2,758]

Hub isn't showed in my country, as far as I am aware at least. I watch it on youtube, never tried to livestream it, found it better to watch it when I actually feel like it. And besides, if I wanna livestream, I gotta wake up like 8 am on a Saturday

[Mr Dash 1,820]

I watch on my computer of course. I have every episode saved on my hard drive so I can re-watch anytime I want. At first I was watching them on YouTube. Now I don't have to. And of course I watch the new episodes on the live stream.

[Replicant 113]

My cable company does not carry THE HUB, and I refuse to have anything to do with Apple's iTunes. If I where to pay to see episodes, I'd literally have to move. I watch the new episodes on Youtube on Saturday nights. Then round about the following Thursday, I, um, have other means to acquire the episode unedited, Hub pop-up and watermark free, to archive for future viewing. Right now I have first and second season on several hard drives, and burned to DVDs, and all of episode three on several drives. I'll burn it on completion, and then wait for season four. A big plus for this is that I have Derpy with her original name and voice on my DVD!

Oh man, that sucks. Kind of. Going to extra trouble just to pay for cartoons would suck more, I think. What's so bad about iTunes? Besides the fact that it's an over-priced money-sink, haha. I'm a fan of alternative downloading options, myself.

It's a pretty common problem for people outside North America, I can't get MLp anywhere on cable and stores don't sell anything MLP because they have been specifically warned by a terrorist group that their stores will be burned down if they do.

 

I watch MLP on youtube most of the time.

O_O Huh. No kidding. I really do wish that The Hub was more accommodating to fans who don't have an easy time of watching the show due to where they live, but I guess as a corporation their only interest is in how it can make them money. Ah well. At least there are legally-questionable ways to see it. 

[Rainbow RapiDASH 53]

I watched my first episode of it while waiting for an episode of Transformers Prime, and I was hooked instantly. I watched the first two seasons on youtube, and watched every episode of season three as it airs on the hub,  I also keep the show in my Netflix Instant Que where I'm able to watch them in HD,

[Sard Shift 21]

I watch the show on either YouTube, or watch the show on a livestream. I prefer watching it on a livestream, because I just love how we, as bronies, react to the show, and I sometimes laugh louder when I see some comments bronies make on certain situations. Or, if I miss something, I'm sure to be updated by the very same crowd, and that makes me feel a little bit more 'in the game'. When I don't have the possibility to watch MLP: FiM on the stream, I just watch it on YouTube the next day.

 

And, I agree Hub should air the show in more countries. As of now, I can't watch the show on my local TV, as I'm a Dutch brony. And when it finally does come on my TV, it's all dubbed in Belgium language -- it isn't even my own language, it's a language with a lame accent on it!

[DiscordAnarchy 770]

Youtube since I don't have TheHub. I have a faction I am a member of who posts the episodes when they pop online so I catch up through them

[SkyGust 71]

I got the Hub, but I don't really watch it. Im not allowed to watch the show  -_-

 

I usually just watch it on a live stream called Haxmega (new episodes) and reruns on Youtube. Thing is, my computer is downstairs now, so I won't be able to watch it now. I guess I gotta wait for reruns. 

[Loona 287]

I search it up on YouTube, since there's no hub in the country i live in, and the only times ponies are on TV are on wednesdays usually when I have dinner, and they only replay old episodes. So I have to rely on the internet for the show

[fimdash 1,196]

I watch old episodes on Netflix from time to time, but I catch the latest episodes on iTunes. The season passes are kind of expensive, but it's worth it for me since I love the show so much. The HD quality from the iTunes store is staggering, and it feels nice to support the show by paying for the episodes. I plan to get season 4 on iTunes when it comes out.

[crazitaco 596]

i have the HUB and watched episodes on there a few times :3 i usually record the new episodes and have them  for later viewing in high definition, but i mostly like to go to bronystate for new episodes, just cause its more fun being able to experience the new episode with other bronies, rather than just watching it at home all by myself and forever alone. i still have the episode playing on my tv at the same time, that way if the stream goes down i can still watch it on tv without missing anything. also, i watch all the unrecorded episodes on youtube.

[Winged Dragon of Ra 55]

I watch all the episodes on YouTube as soon as I can because FIM doesn't air on channels where I live. I don't have the hub as well and if they air early in the morning I would probably be too lazy to get up lol

[Ghost 173]

  Most of the time I watch FIM on YouTube, but I get to watch it on TV when I visit my parents since they get the HUB.  If I'm at my parents house when a new episode comes out I'll try to wake up early to see it.  I think there's something kinda nice about watching it on a TV screen as opposed to a smaller computer screen when I can.  

[Enemy Stand 446]

I watch the episodes on YouTube. I do have Netflix, but it's shared between my family and they don't know I watch it, so I'd rather them not get suspicious.

[spacestorm 183]

I watch MLP on youtube or dailymotion on my PC with headphones. HUB isn't available in my country, but we have another TV station that broadcasts MLP:FiM (these are dubbed versions, for which we have to wait more than a month anyway).

I sometimes have problem to recognize and understand some of the words in spoken English, so when Season 4 will come out I'll wait until someone will make version with subtitles. I want to fully understand the plot of episodes. During this time I will avoid any sources of information about MLP, including this forum.

I watch it on YouTube on my PC. I don't watch it on the Hub since the commercials are so common and they don't show it in order. They only show Season 3 episodes on the Hub. I'd rather watch it on YouTube.
