- So the show has only one week left to end right? Well that means now is about the time I can expose this show's flawed TV-Y rating once and for all.
(also yes there is kinda an editing mistake at 1:50 i think, the censored and uncensored needs to be switched around, so uh whoops lol)
Edit: Bruh why in god's name does this video does this have 2.4k views now, with over 100 likes. I mean thanks, but like, why is this dumb video somehow my most popular one

I think it was because of this comment from you that youtube suddenly decided to give it to me in recommended.

Dont delate it
No.
me watching it while giggling and vibing at the same time, my friends laugh at me for watching mlp even though I'm in highschool, now they know its not a kids show.
It isn’t a kids show, it’s a family show which makes it better.
The same goes to British shows like Thomas the Tank Engine (1984-2003, 2013-2017), Postman Pat (1981-1997) and Fireman Sam (1987-1994).

@@thomaswalsh8726 what i like about TTTE is that they had an episode where I think it was Stanley that got captured by Iron arry and bert and almost died.

I mean, Lauren Faust wanted to make an MLP show that wasn't just for kids.
It worked. Really well. Really, really well.
Flawed premise aside, it really didn't since the show went downhill after she left and when she was there the show was at its most consistently child friendly. Surprise surprise that was also when the fandom began and was its healthiest. Aside from that , why is something for kids bad? Why are you and so many other people who ironically are into some of the most kid stuff out there constantly still throwing that term around like it's assumed to be negative thing?
Too well
@@VunderGuyWho said it being for kids was bad? The jokes are for the parents and older audience who have to watch the show with young individuals so it's a good idea.
Also because you know...kids aren't dumb. They deserve to have something mature once and a while like mentions of anxiety, depression, cause it's real struggles that they'll go through as they get older (Hell kids at the age of 5 can have those symptoms even).
All that "Believe in yourself" is good and all that but kids deserve to learn more

You're right, it's not a kid's show. It's a little girl's show and that means BADASS.

Creators of My Little Pony: we can't show twilight punching tirek in the face.
Also them: let's show how fluttershy breaking the bear all around :)
That is one of the funniest moments.
That episode is what actually got me into the show tbh. It just looked so fucked up and out of place for a kids cartoon about colorful magic horses I just had to see if the other episodes were anything like that. "Most" weren't iirc, but they were definitely a lot more entertaining than expected
You forgot:
- Luna torturing herself for years out of guilt
- Scootaloo being neglected by her parents
- Applejack’s parents being dead
- Starlight Glimmer starting a cult
- The Legion of Doom nuking Celestia’s castle
- Starlight Glimmer stalking Twilight and her friends
- Terramar being forced to choose between divorced parents
- Zephyr Breeze exploiting and abusing his parents
and, last but not least:
- every single Queen Chrysalis scene where she transforms, attacks, stalks, or crawls nightmarishly along the ceiling while turning her head 180 degrees
Man, I grew out of MLP years ago. But I didn’t know the show could get THAT crazy
Some people have actually pointed out that the 1st season was really the one made for kids, while every other season was made for all ages, while still being kid-friendly…which would explain a lot.
1st ep has twilight try to take shots after pinkie's party
So kinda like how miraculous is, in a way?
@@GlitterWooferLPS y e s b u t l e s s w o r s e
I agree
That's because they thought the show was only going to last one or two seasons at the most, and then this ended up becoming the longest running MLP series in the history of the franchise.
You know... For kids!
bruh i heard rainbowdash call discord is dickcord
Little Witch Academia had $hit

WTF?
*THINK OF THE CHILDREN*
a FAMILY picture!
Actually....not just for kids.
I miss when "kid-friendly" didn't mean "kids-only".

The only problem I had is the show's tone was a bit confused at times, like the writers couldn't decide if it was solely meant for little kids or for an older audience. They couldn't actually say the word 'death' or 'die' because 'this is a kids show', but I find it hypocritical when the video showed this.
Well it’s not a kids show
Laura said it a lot that this is meant for all ages, not particularly kids
@@timefliesaway999 Yes, I know that, but Meghan McCarthy just didn't know how to make a show for all ages
see i always thought and still think that this show would be more rated pg but as a kids show but with slighter violence itd be tv-y7. much more suitable that way.
Just because it’s a kids show doesn’t mean it can’t have dark/adult themes.
@@timefliesaway999 this show is definitely targeted towards children

Don't forget twilights' mental breakdown about not finishing her friendship work on time,
OOOOOOOO or fluttershies Identity crisis, or pinky going literally insane, And i'm pretty sure rarity has body dimorphia
I personally love it when kids shows cover dark topics like the ones shown in this video! It makes it so much easier for children to understand heavier topics that parents might be afraid to discuss for one reason or another.
Why do I get the feeling your one of the same morons reeing about recent events in Florida rather than cheering them on with thunderous applause like any actual parent with any love for their kids would?
Like the spike puberty episode lol
This is why I'm glad to have grown up with classic Disney movies for example because damn were those dark but I think they factored into making me really learn and grow better
We should show Ready Or Not Lore to Kids.
Usually if something is called a "little girl's show" that just means "awesome"
Also I'm surprised Luna's self harm didn't show up in this video
Oooh, that one's dark as hell.
"I psychologically torture myself every night to atone for trying to murder my sister"
Yep, sounds like a theme that fits right into a tv show for little girls.
Bruh I thought the same thing! I literally tell people about Luna and Celestia's story every time they ask about MLP since they know I used to watch it. Dark as hell man.
I know some self harm but I forgot everyone’s name
Wait luna did sh?? I dont remember that

0:41 that devil earned my respect
Literally Pinkie Pie's mind breaking in Party for One and Twilight's in Lesson Zero do it for me too lol
Pinkie Pie gets totally depressed and loses her mind to where she legit hallucinates objects that convince her that her friends are terrible losers who she shouldnt talk to ever again, and Twlight becomes some sleep deprived creep around children who brainwashes the whole town into obsessing over her stuffed animal.
Edit: OH, ALSO celestia's "death" In Princess Twilght Sparkle part 2 !! Like bro, the lighting, lack of music, and the visual of Twilight sobbing over her mentor's still body in the darkness caught me so off guard.
At this point, I'm convinced that there are at least two types of fans of this show: those like me, who were rolling with laughter at the Looney Tune-esque over-the-topness of Lesson Zero and Party of One; and those who went "omg that's so DARK".
@@FernieCanto I’m a mix of both tbh. Those episodes were kinda funny but also really disturbing for me
Pinkie Pie's insanity in general is just not... for kids
@@craytherlaygaming2852 She's a character in an animated show aimed at children. Why would she not be "for kids"??
Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only adult MLP fan who used to watch Looney Tunes when I was a kid.
Woah never noticed how messed up those were, except the one with Pinky Pie that one was just so weird
They sure did get away with a lot in this show over the 9 years it was on.
It should have at least gotten a TV-Y7 rating for fantasy violence.
Some people will say you're wrong and being an edgelord. Don't worry, I get that a lot.

Every kids show I know has adult and/or dark humor.
But damn, I didn’t know this show had THAT much of it.
Just about on the same level as Gravity Falls in some cases.

Not to mention the worst of them all: the fact they turned a literal child to stone where she would suffer fully conscious forever.
Yeahhhhh... sometimes there are fates where death is more merciful
@@DToTheB: exactly! Like, some people actually tried to say that what happened was merciful because they could’ve died but dying would’ve been better. It’s disgusting what happened.
Episods pls
@@minatomew series finale
@@shadowspector3611
Death, all other things being equal, is literally never more merciful since living, even in a state of abject misery, is still logically better than non-living. Any attempt to attack this very common sense observation is based on emotions and the manipulation of emotions. However, turning the three of them, not just cozy glow, into stone does seem a bit of a harsh punishment, which is just further evidence that the show really should have never gone there if it was never going to go there competently. It's also evidence that the show is actually far from being all that brilliant, including trying to get things under the radar, when the writers clearly were fighting with each other and to being fair clearly subject to executive meddling. It really should have just stayed with the consistent and consistently good girl show tone it had in season 1 because, newsflash, the girl show elements are what drew people to the show in the first place, not any of its rather lame and lackluster attempts at the 'epic adventure' boy shows are know for doing generally better and more earnestly.
They know parents are going to be forced into watching this show, so they throw a lot of stuff in for the parents. MANY "kids" shows do this. Disney does it, The Muppets, Sesame Street, all of them. Though few of them go quite as far as MLP has a few times. This show can get pretty dark at times. Tangled TV show did as well.
It's still not that strong for children. The only scene that did seem to me something out of line is that of the naked dragon.
0:43 Fun fact: in my motherlanguage it's “We will defeat them! They will suffer and we will win!” Because, of course, it's a kid's show...
LOL
Sounds like you have great defenders of children in your country. You should be proud and not filled with such derision. And yes, I'm being serious.

I think because of alll that, it had a 4kids one piece like situation in Israel. 22 episodes of the first season were dubbed only; the episodes "Boast Busters", "Feeling Pinkie Keen", "Stare Master", and "A Dog and Pony Show" were skipped.
16 episodes of the second season were dubbed only.
The third season was skipped as a whole; thus, it affects the plot of the series, as Twilight Sparkle was given wings and crowned a princess in the end of that season, resulting in her having wings and being addressed as a princess in the fourth season without any events that precede it.
12 episodes of the fourth season were dubbed only.
The eighth and ninth seasons of the series were not dubbed at all.

WHAT EPISODE IS THIS SCENE EVEN FROM I DONT REMEMBER THIS AT ALL
Father Knows Beast - S8 EP24
Oh man there's a whole LOT more from where that came from...
Yep.
BRO that episode with Trixie and her desperate attempt for attention had me messed up. I actually had to stop watching the show for a little bit because of how close to the real thing that scene was.
I'm glad somebody else noticed too.
Should've included the entirety of "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?" SMH.
You left out the creepy zombie ponies in 23 Pranks Later, the scary white glowing eyes, Discord's head splitting in half, pretty much everything in To Where And Back Again, the starving ponies with their ribcage showing and Applejack's leather dominatrix boots

Let's not mention Luna's song about Snowfall causing eternal frostbite and blizzards in Equestria
Yep. The basic summary of the song is "if you cast that spell everyone and everything will die". The Spirit of Hearth's Warming Yet to Come doesn’t mess around.

For number 2, apple cider isn't explicitly an alcoholic drink in America/Canada, it's just an autumn beverage. You can make it alcoholic, but there's not a connotation between cider and alcohol here like there is in other nations.
Thank you for this, I was so confused when people always made cider alcoholic.
yeah and i play genshin impact and apple cider is introduced as non alcoholic in the game
Yep, that episode was removed from being shown in the United Kingdom since Cider over here has always been known as alcoholic. I've talked to a few people who've watched the entire show... Except that episode. When I showed it to them they were pretty surprised lol
After seeing this clip I wish Starlight said "SHUT UP" instead of "QUIET!" It would have maked the scene work BETTER.
Showcasing others that MLP FIM has subtle/not so subtle moments that goes beyond anything a "little girl's show" would do never gets old.
The biggest irony is that the MLP Movie is rated PG despite the show getting away with FAR worse.
I like that you didn’t include the parts about school segregation, dictatorships, economic ruin, or communistic cults because they were too tame.
I used to think that Pinkie Pie was an asshole for taking all the cider but now that I think about it as an adult I realize it was just her way of helping Rainbow Dash overcome her addiction... a true true friend indeed
I like how the show seems like an innocent cartoon about colorful ponies, but as you get older you really how dark and adult themed it can get and it only gets worse as the seasons go on
Ngl the mean 6 death was actually scary uncensored. It was already scary enough how it was censored, for a show aimed towards little kids it’s actually really dark

That’s a kids show, but kids shows can be good and there’s never anything wrong with watching them
let's not talk about the many depressed pinkie scenes...
This is the main reason I watch this. Think about it. Most of the fan-favorite series/movie that people watch tend to have SOME adult themes. Take Mulan for example, at the lake, they made a naken man joke with Yao. Pixar's "Purl", included the dumb donkey word, and had some mild adult humor. RATATOUILLE HAS LITERAL SIGNS OF DRUNKNESS AND AFFAIR. Basically, a good show is a show/movie that can attract all audiences. It isn't necessarily bad, you just need to know how much you can limit it. (Also, my little pony also had a huge point in "The Friendship Quest" where it hints largely on solitary confinement)

Kids shows shouldn't sugarcoat certain topics in my opinion, shows that do those things actually treat kids like they aren't stupid. Tho I don't watch MLP, I'm glad to see they put stuff like that in there once in awhile
0:03 Thanks for Clarifying.
It's one of the few shows that can remain Innocent and Safe for most Audiences.
Lego Ninjago fortunately is the same way. (Not to mention featuring a lot of the same Actors from MLP too)
We don't get many shows that retain that essence we need nowadays to help us get through difficult situations.
Despite not watching it all the time (as it isn't always as serious towards characters not being a bit annoying), it's Therapeutic for me, especially when I am High Functioning Autistic.
It's a nice show that when I think about, pulls away my stresses, and allows me to recover.
Regardless of stuff like PTSD and other various factors the Show has contained in its 9 Season run.
All it does, is reassure that problems like that have a Solution that can mend such psychological problems.
Cider only foams when it’s alcoholic, and it doesn’t foam when it doesn’t contain alcohol. You’re technically right here, since the cider shown in the show is foaming,
Let's not forget the time an episode producer secretly hid slenderman behind some bushes in one episode. True story. I heard the guy who put him there got fired.
But how most of these things are not considered for kids? Man... In my times these stuff were everywhere.... Today kids can't take anything...
