The show is light hearted, optimistic fun but it's not for everyone. > Okay, I'm going to watch it but this had better live up to the hype! Or search for 'Sharing is Magic' Google Doc. Search for 'Friendship is Magic Episode 1' and you should find the series pretty easily.
Unusually, Hasbro seems fine with having the entire series up in public because they've made no move to bring down any of the episodes.
I recommend watching the episodes in order. Pixar technically makes shows for little boys, and produce some of the best animation in the world. It has every right to be a 20 minute corporate committee designed infomercial, but it's not.
It has excellent writing, character dynamics, humor, animation, and generally treats kids seriously rather than condescending to them. Here is a place where we discuss the joy of friendship. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is a reboot of the MLP franchise by Powerpuff Girls artist Lauren Faust, currently viewed by (almost) the entire Internet, not only the intended audience.
