My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Still Short But Not Quite As Short Take
Yes, I really watched the whole of the new series of My Little Pony.
The thing is, while there is no question but that the show was created solely as a cynical exercise in manipulating little girls into getting their parents to exchange their hard-earned dollars for mass-produced plastic toy horses, it is actually pretty good.
I was persuaded of this first by the existence of Weird Al PMVs* and then by the Ponycast put out by the combined forces of the Anime World Order and Greatest Movie Ever podcasts.**
And, despite its origins, target audience, and current status as an internet meme plague, I really enjoyed it.
* Pony Music Videos.
** I've listened to every single episode of both. Twice.

Merch engine? Sounds like Gundam.
