Meh. It's easier than listing off all the production team.
You could have just said "the production team..."

I have to write a cultural analysis and figured since I was the only one into ponies and the only one who REALLY knows about the show and cartoons in general I'd run with it. So far the professor is liking my paper but thought perhaps I could beef it up with solid statements from the men who watch it.

I like the show because it brings me back to the animated series I watched when I was a kid. The pure, unbridled energy it gives off from its artwork, characters and writing are rare to find in other cartoons today and the references it brings up are not just for little kids but also for people even over 20 years of age.

It is the rare show that unabashedly dances on its age gap, rather than tiptoeing around it.

All very true.
It has something that the creators put something that some shows don’t have today, called efferent and it show they put a lot into it. Also it’s a good thing that they choose to use animated instead of using CGI, to me it would not be as good as it is now and I’ll go for animated and stop motion over CGI shows any day, exempt Reboot and Beast Wars they ok.
Let’s just hope that we will see more shows like this in the future.

All in all a great episode. We get to see the Cake twins again, and Big Mac is seen with Smarty Pants. XD

A CMC episode again? Let’s see what they’re doing this time.
Spoiler!
HA,HA,HA
Diamond Tiara as JJ, Big Mac with Smarty Pants, Applejack talking as Big Mac and Big Mac talking again, Celestia just like us? You’re lucky you haven’t seen what she does when the shows not on.
Again good episode, really funny.

Why do I like the show? Beyond being genuinely good, I like it for what it has done for me. It was a spot of sunshine in a dark time of my life, it brought me and a number of my friends closer together, and even got me some new ones. There's a sense of belonging in liking the show, knowing that I can wear a bright pink pony on my shirt, and someone I cross will get it, and for that moment, we are connected, however briefly, by a love for a little girl's show. And that is why I am a brony.

As for the new episode: Rarity gets better every time she gets even a glimpse of the spot light. XD She's sneaking up on Pinkie Pie for my top spot. She won't succeed but she's making a valiant effort.

I hoped that Rarity would of said that line after she heard what Gabby Gumms had to say about her,
Spoiler!
especially seeing the pic showed her sprawed on her couch she says said line on.Though I did like Diamond Tiara as JJ. Girls, go out there and get more pics of that menace, Chicken-Pony!

Gilda is not actually a pony. ( that's one of my pet peeves about this fandom, the labeling of all other creatures, besides earth ponies, unicorns and pegusi, as ponies.)

It's a joke, nobody actually thinks they're ponies.
