Stupid stuff that comes to mind that we want to post (pony version)

@Dex Stewart  
Never seen any of the previous gens in full. Recommendable?
 
@ShadowBolt Platinum  
I thought it was “poke ’em”

@Brass Beau  
I only know of some of the first gen. It’s okay,if you’re looking for a cute fantasy show. After that the ponies were in a modern setting and what I saw reminded me a bit of Chipmunks in tone. The later ones I saw were passable for babies.

I’ve just noticed the signs referring to “Mare-Do-Well” may actually be naming her “Mare-Fix-Well” (but shortened to “MarFixWell”):
 

@Algebroot Neogears  
Early beta version?

I won’t show it here and I could be overthinking things, but the Sisterhooves Social sign abbreviates it as SiHoVi (Sister Hooves Visit?), and may actually say it’s in Ponyville (Slightly shortened and misspelled as “Oinvilld”; QWERTY keyboard?).
 
If I am correct on the bottom’s spelling (if it’s not random gibberish), then this was far more difficult to make out (some letters mangled beyond recognition).

Discovery is launching a streaming service called Discovery+.
 
Could G5 be a Discovery+ original?

@Latecomer
 
I watched 2 G3 specials.

@Background Pony #B994  
Really hope not. There’s only so many streaming services I can pay for.

@Brass Beau
 
I assume Discovery Kids/Family shows are coming to the service.

@Background Pony #B994  
@Brass Beau  
After reading both of you’s posts, I’m now afraid.

@Background Pony #B994  
I don’t think they’ll get DFam content considering that Hasbro content is always scattered through Netflix, Starz and Tubi.

@Hollowfox Jaeger  
Not until they can renegotiate digital distribution like Disney is doing with Netflix.

 
When it’s been over 10 years and you’re still a background pony
 

@Panko Pai  
Apple horse needs moar luv

There’s a bit of writing advice that asks  
“Is this the most interesting time in this character’s life? And if not, why aren’t you showing us that?”
 
I think Applejack suffered as a character because the implied story about how she coped with the loss of her parents, had to grow up faster, and became a surrogate parent to Applebloom is more interesting than anything we ultimately got from the show.

@DerpyFast  
Isn’t that what the show showed us, though?

@Meanlucario  
It didn’t show us the process, just the results.

@DerpyFast  
I thought that you meant showing us said effects in action, which the show does do.

@DerpyFast  
Really, the trials and tribulations of all the girls is probably more interesting than what we watched.  
Rainbow’s rise to the top, friendship with Gilda and Fluttershy, and no one believing her about the Rainboom.  
Rarity starting her first shop, builinding a client base, overshadowing Sweetie Belle, and her relationship with her parents.  
Pinkie leaving the rock farm and travelling the country.  
Fluttershy learning to talk to animals and why Angel is so special.  
There’s a lot of potential there.

Not the first time I’ve seen random bits of my art shared on Twitter randomly with no source, but the first one that got way more score than my uploads here too.
 
No source and no artist name is a pretty big bummer tho, I only saw it by random chance scrolling through my feed. I retweeting it and added my name and source in there. Doubt it will even get noticed but hey, I don’t mind reposting, it would just be nice to get those positive comments in a place I can SEE them.
 
Sigh.

@LightningBolt  
Not giving credit to someone’s art? Man, that’s a bummer. That’s not cool.

Have you ever wondered what the MLP would be like if Rarity were the leader?

@Cosmas-the-Explorer  
It would be more fabulous.

@Meanlucario  
She would make uniforms for everypony.

How likely is it that Hasbro makes their own streaming service and makes G5 MLP an original series?
