Hello, fellow bronies and pegasisters! Did everpony have a great Nightmare Night (Halloween)? Well, if so, you might know that Season 3 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is going to air NEXT WEEK!!! Also, please be aware that there are only 7 days left. 7. Days. LEFT!!!! For those of you who don't know, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is an animated show developed by Lauren Faust, one of the writers of the Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imanginary Friends. Speaking of which, she's even married to Craig McCracken, the creator of both shows. Anyway, Faust sought out to make a show with more fantasy and adventure themes. The series was not only a success with the young girl audience, it also got a huge cult following with teenagers and adults, largely male, who call themselves "bronies" ages 13-35.
After the show's first 2 seasons were a hit, a 3rd season has been in development ever since September 2011 (the year that Season 2 aired). The 3rd season has had a lot hype and anticipation and ever since the show's Season 2 finale, "A Canterlot Wedding" has become a ratings hit, with Part 1 having 483,000 viewers and Part 2 having 475,000 viewers and being received very positively by critics. The 3rd season's first 2 songs "I Wasn't Prepared For This" and "Ballad of the Crystal Ponies" was unveiled at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con. A clip from the 2-parter episode "The Crystal Empire" was shown to fans and executives and the 2012 New York Comic-Con. The 3rd season is set to premiere on Saturday, November 10th, 2012 the same day that the Hub airs its newest show, "the Littest Pet Shop." Well, that's it, bronies and pegasisters. Next Saturday is Season 3. Until then, BROHOOF!
