Let me be the first to say.... no one will actually DIE in the series finale. They just....won't. Any argument about why it's possible is just....nuts. Y'all nuts. It will literally never happen. The most they would possibly do - and I'd be SHOCKED if they have the balls to even go this far - is to have Twilight sort of sacrifice herself in some way, only to be saved in the last second by some deus-ex power or the power of love itself in some cheesy cop-out. Even something as predictable as that would actually be very risky for the show's rating. And no, the show will never change the rating of the finale to compensate for the audience change, that just...won't happen.


 
It doesn't matter that the show has a large adult fanbase or even that kids watching since season 1 would be older now, the show still has to fulfill its purpose and remain suitable for its original target audience. It's made some naughty jokes here and there that the babies won't get, but there's still rules they have to follow. They never even showed us Cadence's pregnancy phase, which arguably could have been cute/funny for a couple of episodes - but they didn't dare because that's too "real". Even though I'm sure a lot of young kids have seen their mothers be like this before suddenly they have a new sibling. They still weren't daring to go too "real" there so that implies they won't go too "real" in any other direction either. Everything's gotta be somewhat safe.
