Twilight floated a second fritter up to her mouth when she realized the first was gone. “What is in these things?” “Mostly love. Love ‘n about three sticks of butter.”

Say what now?!
Oh! My! Sweet! Pony! Princesses!
What have they done?! Are they mocking us?!
Yeah... doesn't look like it. This is part of the reason why I've always tended to like 'family entertainment' over 'kid's entertainment'.

I have a pretty high tolerance for random kids stuff, recognizing the target audience and all. This one just broke my brain, between the "girl's show word generator" title and the logo with a blatant rip off of Rainbow Dash's cutie mark that I'm surprised Hasbro's legal team hasn't politely pointed out to them.
Hoo boy. I think the only way that could really work is if the main character cussed like a sailor.
5002889
That's true! Not every kid's show still has some appeal years later, but amounting kids to fun buzzwords and treating them like they're idiots in shows meant for them has always been... blech.
(And yeah, that lightning bolt rainbow really shouldn't be passing the way it is.)
This is just somebody's furry OC. >.>
And the episode summaries sound like the writers marathoned FIM after eating roughly all of the mushrooms.
5002894
At least they had fun?
5002894
Yeah, and that's our job!
That name sounds like the final attack a Sailor Moon character would have
RainbowButterflyUnicornKittyBINGO!
5002890
Main character is voiced by Tom Waits perhaps?
For some extremely limited definition of 'they' perhaps…
I'm pretty sure every vehicle of societal change has a handful of goofs sitting in the back, blissfully unaware of what's really going on or at stake but more than happy to put their own… spin on it.
And for the boy demographic, enjoy NINJA PIRATE ZOMBIE ROBOT EXPLOSION
This is ridiculous. Who would watch this obvious display of shallow pandering?!

I thought you'd just come up with the sequel.
Words have failed me.
5002928
"Bingo Bats" does sort of sound like an MLP character (a plucky sidekick perhaps?). Throw in the supporting roles of "Duke Venture" and "Master Prickle" and we could be onto something...
Echoing what Bats said previously, Rainbow Butterfly should have a sailor's vocabulary and the soft, dulcet tones of Tom Waits:

You can have some of mine:
And then there's the dact she's a Unikitty rip-off.
Hey, at least you can't say it doesn't deliver what it promises.
5002988
...And some people get confused by the idea that two magical female ponies could have kids.
5002950
That...that video is a thing of beauty.
Can I offer in return an Electric Six/(mostly) Disney mashup?
5002884
I have to wonder the same thing, I mean I have no problem with silly shows for younger kids within reason, and I have no problem with the premise of the show (in regards to its bit about female empowerment), but this seems at first glance to be yet another example of the corporate peoples referring to the graphs and stuff that says girls like A, B, C, and D. and going from another comment, if this was a boy show it would almost certainly be something to the effect of robot football soldier zombie. I am very likely biased and looking at things through nostalgia glasses, but when I was growing up the shows like Magic School Bus, Bill Nye, Bearenstein Bears, heck even Ed, Edd, and Eddy (while certainly not the pinnacle of intelligent humor) and so forth they never treated kids like mindless idiots or computer programs that could be boiled down to so many ones and zeros.
5002995
Nice!

You're probably right on that one or something very similar to that. Maybe I'm just getting old, but it seems to me that even 10 years ago there were silly shows like Ed, Edd, and Eddy ;(slight gag) Johnny Bravo; Courage the Cowardly Dog(I liked this show); and so forth, but none of this stuff that feels like they are draining you of intelligence as you watch them and are attempts by corporate types to come up with the lowest common denominator for all kids. Kids are not computer programs that can be boiled down to so many ones and zeros, sure most kids find fart jokes funny, but that doesn't mean they are stupid and cannot grasp a decent storyline or character development, that's probably why I like MLP, sure the storylines are fairly simple, but they aren't comprised of dumb laughter just for the sake of dumb laughter, and the characters are fairly well written, and even during the first few seasons when they ended most episodes with the letters, they didn't feel like heavy-handed pandering attempts like the audience was comprised of total idiots (play nice kiddies, what color is the balloon, and crap like that) they felt sincere, like they actually learned something and if the audience learned it as well was merely a nice bonus rather than the end all be all. Deep Breath sorry for the rant
eh what they hay, I might give it a peek, and maybe like mlp I'll end up liking it, I haven't seen ads so that kind of helps, seems that I might have enjoyed shows like Adventure Time, Uncle Grandpa, the one with the bluejay character, and so forth if I hadn't been totally put off by the ads which always seem to focus on the sheer stupidity rather than any redeeming qualities (I know ads are short, but that doesn't mean that you couldn't choose scenes that were somewhat serious and leaving off with a cliff-hangar might be a good hook) but I'm just an average citizen, what do I know about anything.

All too true! Thankfully, most kids these days are wise enough not to keep to the data and choose their own paths.
5003013
) but joking aside, looking over the episodes, and the fact that I haven't been turned off by abjectly stupid tv ads for the show I'm willing to give this a fair chance. on a completely unrelated note, I like your avatar.
thank goodness for free will (the only thing that keeps the alien overlords at bay

Evidence shows that kids can be boiled down to one's and zeroes.
There are videos on YouTube with many millions of views that are even more blatant cash grabs than Rainbow Butterfly Unicorn Kitty, with the sole aim by the video creators to get maximum views with minimal expenses.

Thanks!

I can honestly not think of a response, I guess it comes down to me wanting to see kids as actual humans rather than so much statistical data, can they be annoying as heck, yes, but so can older wiser adults, at least kids can be taught better, adults are often far to set in their ways to change (and I am probably a bit of a hypocrite by saying this).
5003022
You are very welcome
5003018
Trust me, I've seen those. Though to be fair, most of those are drawing from IPs that do have some appeal outside of the weird videos, so it's more similar to slapping a picture of Rainbow Dash on cheap sunglasses to sell them to bronies.
(Though since Trixie is much deeper than I am into MLP fanvids and music (she's a little Living Tombstone fan), I keep an eye on her youtube already because I know our fandom.)
What does this remind me of… Ah, right:
- MLP: FiM
- Comedy
- Random
Princess Changeling Rainbow Magic Pants, the beloved being from beyond Eqestria's skies who also resides in a land flooded with magic much as if Starswirl the Bearded's basement was flooded, senses that Twilight Sparkle needs her help.Why do I want to finish this off by adding "Chainsaw Massacre"?
5002919
Personally, I'm looking forward to the crossover between the two.

Smellin' like a bak'ry

There. I fixed it.

Reads like something written by Stephen King...
Fallen London...?
5003327
It's pretty much all Fallen London references, yeah. They make everything better.
Hey, it was that or House of Leaves.
5003336
Yes. Yes it does. It also reminds me a bit of the fantasy elements in The Dark Tower
Yeah but when they do try...

(No, that's not the cover of a Stephen King novel. It's an ad for Buster Brown shoes, ca. 1907.)
They are trying. They're trying to indoctrinate 4-year-olds with postmodernist aesthetics.
