No.

Wait, I mean yes. And it is awesome. You'd think it'd be just for little girls but it's actually very good! Adults just need to not worry about their image so much!

Well I haven't seen it, mainly because I almost never watch TV, but care to explain?

most people don't actually watch it on tv because it has a horrible time slot
anyways

there are many reasons we like this show
the characters are likable, and well developed
the animation is amazing considering modern cartoons
and the writing is genius, as it is mostly character based comedy and development

it also comes from Lauren Faust, who was a major part of Power Puff Girls, and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

I'll admit, when I was younger, I really liked PPG. And Foster's was okay...yet this disappoints me. I like the art style. It's great. But I just don't see the attraction to this show.

Also the top two demographics watching it on YouTube are males 25-34 and males 18-24.

I never was into My Little Pony when I was a kit, but the show really is well-made. Don't let the reputation that precedes it fool you.

Basically, they were under the influence of this one poisonous plant that pulls pranks on people (annoying alliteration, Batman!). So naturally, it would be funny to make the feminine, soft-spoken pony sound like Barry White after she walked through it. So that's what happened to her.

You'd have to watch the episode.

I already found MLP cool before anybody else did.

Because of it I became equinatarian, meaning that I eat only regular horses now instead of unicorns.

They have nubs that make hoof sounds. That probably counts as hooves.

That said, Derpy Hooves is the quasi-unofficial name of that gray pegasus pony.

Is it? I know it was considered, but I never heard any confirmation that they actually went with it.

The implication is that you "don't like it" for no other reason than you think that socially, you shouldn't like it. Which is not a good reason to dislike, or like, anything.

No, I really just don't like it much. I gave it a try and watched a full episode, and it didn't appeal to me. Need I say more?
