Honestly, what is the appeal? I am not hating or sickened, I just simply don't understand. So those of you who do, please enlighten me since the Internet says I must love or hate them.

Yeah I'am with ben what is the appeal of the show? Enlighten us. I am rather curious how ponies can appeal to older males. It's a good, innocent show that makes me happy and promotes acceptance and tolerance, which is very rare these days. It's actually helped me a lot when I've been depressed. It is my nature to study everything I like as much as possible, so of course teh interwebz are the place to turn. I don't know about others, but that's my reason. Also, it's nice to see somepony (or two) ask politely for once I'm not as pushy as many bronies are, so I won't try forcing anypony to become a fan. However, if you are interested in watching it, I recommend the episode Sonic Rainboom (season 1 episode 16). The first two episodes of the first season (parts 1 and 2 of the series premiere) aren't really that good of an indicator of the show as a whole - I liked them much better after I went back and watched them having completed season 2. |

Yeah I'am with ben what is the appeal of the show? Enlighten us. I am rather curious how ponies can appeal to older males. Well, honestly I can't really explain. I too, didn't understand the appeal at first(even kind of hated on it), but when even some of my friends started getting into it, I just had to put it to the test. So I watched the first episode. Meh, still don't see it. My personal rule is, always watch at least 5 to formulate a proper opinion, so I kept going. Second episode? Still pretty much the same. Third episode. Things start to get weird, I already somehow memorized all the characters' names, and actually started laughing instead of chuckling. Next thing I know, sun is rising, and I had watched up to the 12th episode. I was officially addicted to this thing. My best guess as to why it gets people, is because of the sheer innocence of the show. It's cute, heartwarming and funny. Makes you feel better, somehow. One thing that my friend says also might take a part on it, is that it might appeal to people's childhoods(same creator of the Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, two pretty darn awesome shows.) |

Point for you, Lord 20% Cooler. That's pretty much how my fanhood started as well. It really does make one feel better, doesn't it? It's like pony therapy.

Okay, one of the things that makes me leary is the possibility of powerpuff girls style voices. Even as a kid, that pitch of voice always drove me nuts. Don't know why, but it just bugged me. So, are the voices like that?

Not really, they are all normal pitched, i'd say. As for why I like it, well one, Lauren Faust.... nuff said. Two, it has great writing, songs, story, and characters. It is over all just an amazing show, which is hard to do these days.
I say watch the first 5 episodes and then tell us if you hate it.

Hmm I get the therapy aspect of it all. About more than 50% of my tv watching consists of cartoons like sponge bob and adventure time cause everything else on tv is either too depressing like the news or just plain sucks like all the shows mtv.  I'am loading that MLP episode 16 on youtube to watch as you suggested user and If I don't like it consider order 66 pony to be executed and all of you banned Just kidding.  |

LoL, pony therapy is best therapy.  Pretty much all of my brony friends started off this way too. They went to see what the fuss was all about, either by curiosity or recommendation, and then BAM addiction. Kind of like US, to be honest, you buy one to see what the fuss is all about... and next thing you know you have a whole collection of them XD Okay, one of the things that makes me leary is the possibility of powerpuff girls style voices. Even as a kid, that pitch of voice always drove me nuts. Don't know why, but it just bugged me. So, are the voices like that?
Well, it depends on the caracter. Some do have quite high-pitched voices(Pinkie Pie comes to mind...), but it's mostly fine. |

Might be a little while until I can do that but I'll certainly try it. My therapy shows were always Trek or Bugs Bunny. I love the cartoon violence that was able to make it through in those days. It was just plain funny...oh and Mr. Bean. LoL, pony therapy is best therapy. Pretty much all of my brony friends started off this way too.

If that's the case, then I'll still try those first 5, but PinkiePie might need to...disappear for awhile lol |
