If you ask me, a good starting point would be Episode 4, as it doesn't require too much explanation to follow what happens.
If you look at episode 1 and 2, it's pretty much the same plot as Paper Mario 2, mostly about the end of the game...well, the outline is the same, anyway.

In those episodes:
A dark pony was sealed in the moon. When she returns, 1000 years later, the world will be launched into a eternal night.

In Paper Mario 2:
A dark soul was sealed in a coffin. When she returns, 1000 years later, the world will be launched into a eternal night.
Which was like in Earthbound:
A dark soul was gaining power in the past. When the party goes back, 1000 years in the past, the world is threatened by eternal darkness.

In other news, since I've had my 7th dream in a row about being Rainbow Dash, I'm starting a fanfic based on my dreams.

Although the show must be good if you guys are still talking about it.
agreed

I MIGHT try it, but I don't have a TV that has TV shows. It only plays VCRs and DVDs. The place I watch TV(If I ever manage to get to watch it) is at my sisters' place. But she is always there with her children, and if she is not I'm not allowed to come over. :P

I'd assume that the episodes are uploaded somewhere on YouTube.

Yeah. I actually use an HDMI port so I can plug my laptop into my HDTV so it's like it's on TV but not really. :3

YouTube, I hate you soooooo much. The channel whose videos I used on the first page was pulled down. Again.

I guess I'm just going to have to spend a half-hour getting new links and trying not to be distracting into watching the episodes themselves.

I've been thinking of watching this but the art style... My eyes. They burn.

Is the show still understandable if listened to like a drama CD? I might try doing that instead...

Or maybe it all somehow looks much better in motion?
Rest in peace, Kym. I hardly knew ya.
Rest in peace, Marinus. A bright star, you were ahead of me on my own tracks of thought. I miss you.

It's still kind of understandable, but quite a lot easier to follow if you're watching it of course.

As for the art style, it is flash-based, but I'd still say it looks better than a few other flash-based shows out there right now. Plus the animation's pretty smooth, so I'd say try watching it in motion first.

The season finale is available in ultra-lag and below-abysmal quality, if anypony wants to see it. I watched it and I can't tell if I like it because I got fed up with the lag and quality at about the 2-minute mark.

Watched a live-stream of it.

More Celstia trolling everypony made me laugh. Other than that, it was pretty good (though not my favorite).

The problem now is 7 months until the next episode. Hope everypony's up to waiting. :P

Actually, I forgot to mention this; in school, I got points taken off of my NYSELA since I accidentally wrote "everypony" instead of "everyone". I didn't even notice it when I was checking over my test. Twice.

Another little tidbit;

DP (I thought there was another post here?)

Episode 26 - The Best Night Ever

That's it for Season 1. I think Season 2 is going to start later this year or early next.

Bump.

Apparently, Season 2 is slated to have 26 episodes instead of 24 as previously assumed, and will start airing sometime in Fall. Additionally, the timeslots have been changed - FiM now airs at 8:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 6:30 PM weekdays, all EST, on The Hub.

Unfortunately for those of us in Canada, the only real channel to watch it on is Treehouse TV, and the schedule for it there seems rather sporadic.

Also @xpr'd; that's... awesome.

I heard a friend say the same thing about canada. I think he said something about it airing here in fall if its not there.

Well, I don't get TV at my house so I can't really get involved with issues like that.

On the topic on Mr. Ingram, he also visited an IRC channel I was idling on. Too bad a missed him. 3: It would be #mylittlepony on irc.irchighway.net if you're interested.

This is entirely bump-worthy.

So a while back, Hasbro came up with a thirty-second parody of Katy Perry's "California Girls" to advertise the show. Recently, a full version was released exclusively for Equestria Daily.

It clocks in at three times longer than the original, but the real kicker is that Pinkie Pie actually mentions bronies in one line.

Yeah, the male fanbase is just that big.

Excuse me while I go un-blow my mind.

DJ-Pon3 is the fan nickname of... Well, the DJ pony near the start (from Episode 14). Another fan nickname would be Vinyl Scratch. :wink:

>mention of bronies

>mention of fandom name "DJ Pon-3"

I'm a fourteen-year-old male. This is a show for little girls parodying a song by an artist I despise at best. I don't care. This video made my day.

This just goes to show that Season 2 is going to be as good as Season 1 (if not better) even though Lauren Faust isn't the main person working on it anymore.
