Do you think G6 Pony will bring back the magic?

Well, they terminated G5 mid season, so they clearly weren't happy with those results. I don't necessarily think they will try to appeal to the adult audience of G4 though. It will probably just be a cheap kids show that will be met with heavy criticism that will drown out any positivity. I'd like to see some news on it though.

I believe Ha$bro will give ponies a break for a while, especially given Transformers is their money-maker.
To simply put, not only did they botched up G5, but making G5 a continuation of G4 means MLP:FiM will have that tarnish as well.
But if we ever get a G6, I hope it'll either be an alternate timeline after G4 that erases G5, or a clean slate, not resting on G4's laurels.

I wonder what they'll try to copy next. We've had the beanmouths, then the cocomelons. What's popular right now with girls? The ladybug show? That has some butts.
They'll probably fire all the people who messed up G5, hire the exact same type of people, and mess up all over again. They don't want our horny ass money.
There was a show being worked on that starred Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow and Misty (yes, weird), but it was apparently scraped.

>>1190748I've seen those pics, I thought that was just someone's fan project.
MLP:FiM was practically lightning in a bottle. But I believe the secret to the success was, as Lauren Faust put it, she didn't make the show just for little girls, but a show where little girls and their family would enjoy. She expanded the intended audience. The fact she also gave each and every character depth of personality also helped.
That and a decent animation studio.

>>1190692I'm not sure what's popular with people under age fifteen right now other than 'Bluey', which is very much something not driven by merchandising. No idea. I'm afraid.
Magic is what magic is.
