Everyone is in the other bunkers. /mlp/'s connection to /co/ is extremely tenuous and although it's pretty easy for a newfag to conclude that one is a spiritual successor to the other through a couple of screencaps, the two boards have been culturally diverging for more than a decade at this point. The majority of early migrants were /b/fags anyways
This is an awesome site though

0 fucks. Show (the real show, G4) ended, more or less perfectly considering it was a show to give Ha$bro merchandise money, and Lauren was gone even during season 2's production. How it went up to and including season 9 was better than most cash cows ever get. I don't care if the """franchise""" is dead, G4 was made, and I'll always love it. Fuck EQG, fuck it to death.

As long as G4 exists I think the fandom will endure. Much like G1 of Transformers or the original TMNT cartoon, all you need is one *really good* series and the brand can endure any manner of shit re-adaptations. But also you have to live with the knowledge that we will never ever get anything close to G4's quality again. The new stuff will always suck in some new special way and have its defenders who slip into the ether after it stops airing.

Unless it goes full Star Wars and there is a complete collapse of interest in every aspect of the brand.

What was about the first two seasons that were so comfy?
I know nostalgia has a lot to play here, but there's something about them that the other seasons or even other shows can't replicate.

It's the cast. The Mane Six are really special as a group of protagonists, and their interactions in everyday scenarios was peak. It was basically a slice-of-life show every bit as good as the best of anime. It just happened to star ponies.

Also, I think the pony-ness of it contributed to the comfiness. The setting and the quirks of the setting were fun. It was basically a kind of fantasy setting, medieval-tech-level, with magic, magical creatures, fairy tale vibes. That helped.

It just came out at the right time
Had it come out early in the 2000's it would have been scoffed at and forgotten and seen as a hidden gem
Had it come out late them people would be too cynical to appreciate it
Couple that with Lauren Faust already having experience working on shows people love and understands what makes a good girls show and you've got an unforgettable show

G5 didn't kill it, the CEO of Hasbro did after he was handed success on a silver platter. At least direct your autism at the right target.

Honestly the tech level is one of the charms of the show, and the show started to go to shit the minute the writers started to fuck with it for easy gags. I loved the charm of basically a steam-powered world accentuated by magic. When flashlights and shit started to show up for no reason, I knew something was wrong.

I actually agree about easy modern technology used for easy gags. Did not bother me nearly enough to say "show went to shit", but it was a tiny step down.

Not really. During the original airing while there were funposting /b/ threads all the real discussion was on /co/.
I'll grant you that the cultures completely diverged as the years went by. MLPG tried to cling to its own identity for years as far as I understand it.

it also sucks that I was making green, and /mlp/ seemed like the only board that had embraced green as part of its culture

I don't care.
I didn't even really give a shit when G4 ended since I gave up mid-season 4. The series never got bad from what I saw but it mostly lost the comfy soul that drew me in after season 2.
