Pony Venting Thread

The License to have G4 on Netflix just expired.
Netflix Paid for the right for the G5 movie and green lit the show

What about Paramount+? Or Peacock? Or HBO Max? Or Discovery+?

@Background Pony #C304
Pretty sure those are only for the stuff That’s owned by the Companies

@Penguin Dragneel
Or likely HBO Max since that’s the platform where animated shows tend to go

@Penguin Dragneel
I think the entirety of FiM is on Hulu.

@Goku Black
I literally checked yesterday, and it only had Season 9.

It also had Pony Life, but… Yeah, I’m not talking about that.

@Penguin Dragneel
I just checked. I stand corrected.

@northern haste
They have third party content too.

Heck, Peacock had the 2017 movie.

I have DVDs of every season and the movies so I don’t have to rely on streaming services. Hasbro apparently gave up on DVDs after season seven, but copies can be found if you look hard enough.

@The Worst Person
They usually only have third party content through TV deals.

It’s the main reason why HBO Max had to take the Harry Potter movies off after a month or two. Because NBCUniversal got the streaming rights when they got it for broadcast on Syfy and USA.

This isn’t venting but man just talking about Starlight after Cutie Remark and The Crystalling takes a lot out of me. Not in a negative way, more in an intriging way. I might need a break from talking about Starlight for a little. Thinking about her is roller coaster. It is interesting to think and talk about her though

I’ll be done talking about her for a little while I think though.

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Good news! She’s not actually in that many episodes this season.

@Latecomer
I actually still like Starlight. Even with my problems in The Crystalling I still found her awkwardness kinda cute. I just feel some things could have improved.

I’m just (at least I’ll try) not going to let whether she was written well or not in an episode drive me crazy. Sometimes I get obsessed with stuff.

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
If it helps, she gets to shine more next season!

@Latecomer
Yay!

that BGP spamming pics of boots/legs all over the site is starting to annoy me :/

@ichiban iceychan 1517
It’s probably the boot guy again, they’re an old problem user by this point. Weird that they’re being allowed to do this, I thought they’d been banned for shenanigans like this.

The more I hear about what’s leaving Netflix next month, the more I’m convinced that MLP leaving is just some licensing shenanigans that’ll probably be resolved before it leaves.

There’s a LOT of popular titles set to be removed on February 1st. Bleach, Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works, No Game No Life, and now a bunch of Transformers series are leaving as well.

Those titles (including MLP) continue to be popular to this day, and I doubt Netflix would seriously remove them unless they were outbidded for the rights.

@Penguin Dragneel
I’m going to do what Kleptomage did and start buying the DVDs. Hell, I already ordered the first season on eBay.

@Goku Black
I’ve had Seasons 1-4 on DVD for a while now.

I’ll eventually get 5-7 when Amazon isn’t charging $40 each for them.

@Penguin Dragneel
It’s a good thing I just watch them on pirate sites

I don’t get this whole kisekai thing. I keep seeing these images of the MLP characters in this form and I don’t get the appeal, it just looks so bland and stiff and even uncanny at times.

@Myoozik
I actually have Discovery Family, so that’s how I kept up with the series.

Never understood Cozy’s intentions, tbh. Why did she want the magic?
