I think I've finally figured it out.
When the show first aired, pretty much everything mainstream was dark and sad. It was like a trend. I mean, one of the most popular shows was Breaking Bad, a show about a man with cancer who becomes a drug producer to pay for his treatment. When MLP appeared it was a genuinely happy and comfy show, something quite unusual, and many oldfags liked it for that very reason alone. It was their only chance to see something as optimistic.
Fast forward, 2016. Now there are other comfier shows out there. Not just comfier than the later seasons, but even comfier than season 1. I think MLP was in fact the catalyst that made networks realize that there were people wanting to watch comfy shows, and they did it even better (MLP was an accident, after all). Anyway, anyone who knew those new shows before MLP wouldn't find anything especial in this show. So, to make the show more "interesting" for new audiences, the new writers and the rest of the new crew decided to make the show "funnier" and more "mature", even if that meant making it way less comfier.
I think that's the reason why some people like so much this season. It's also the reason why some other people think this season was awful, it literally gave up on the main thing that made us love the show. What do you think?I mean, besides the fact that I'm a faggot, which is a given.

Besides the fact that you're a faggot? Not much, really. I really like horse.
God dammit OP I'm too tired for this.
Yeah, I agree pretty much 100 percent.
Since I don't really have anything else to say, have a cute picture.

I think it is also because of the way MLP has switched writers and directors, who have different views of what to do with the show.
Hasbro interference getting a bigger thing may also be a contributing factor.

>I really like horse.
Do you think "we" don't? I'm not being defensive, I'm curious.
I think it's because you're sad and lonely people and latched onto any community that would accept you
Nothing to do with "the darkness of the world" or whatever bullshit

project your own issues elsewhere
>>28778688
I think you're overplaying MLP's 'uniqueness' in regards to being "genuinely happy and [redacted]" and a catalyst.
It's a kids show. Dime a dozen.
People latched onto it mostly because it was okay for a /little girls/ show.
You're also a faggot. I don't mean that endearingly, either.

Calling bs on this
Nice theory tho not just random spaghetti as usual however the reason the new seasons suck is the result of bad writing not because of "mature" contend

>the existence of the cmc is justified by some stupid exmachina crap
I agree on everything else, but why is this a problem? The existence of the Elements is some stupid exmachina chap too, and there's a parallelism between the way the mane 6 and the way the CMC got their cutie marks. I think they intentionally tried to made both groups similar, specifically to justify the existence of the CMC.
If you listed this along with some things that I consider serious issues, I guess it's because you think this is a problem too. But what makes it so different to the existence of the Mane 6 for it to be a problem?
Bump for more Nyx.
