I couldn't under stand why people gave it so much crap. So I decited to see what all this was about by watching the show. Somehow, I ended up enjoying it. The comedy and the intresting storys aren't that bad. I mean even after the first episode, the great episodes kept comeing even without the action the first one had. I have heard this has happened to alot of guys who have heard of bornys. Then they watch it and they are sucked in. Though I am not obsessed with the show, It's not that bad of a show. I mean, it not even girly other then the fact they are all ponys. Give it a shot if you like cartoons, it's not that bad.
