Sorry if this post comes off as rambling, but I've got a bone to pick. First, let's start this off with a bit of positive news. The good: There is a 4th season of MLP in the works. I know because I've been brought in to work on it. I'd prefer to keep specifics out of it, as I'm fairly certain some of what I'm about to say could get me fired. Daniel Ingram is back, all the VAs are back, most of the writers/animators and such are back. Official DHX media financial reports show that Season 4 is paid and in-production However, Hasbro has started to take more control in the development of My Little Pony, and have made some, frankly, terrible decisions. We're all still optimistic about the show and are working to bring you a great show, but it's hard to work with some of the stuff they're forcing on us This brings me to the bad: Twilight Sparkle becomes an alicorn princess in the S3 finale. This was not something we had any control over. This was purely a move by Hasbro to sell more toys. Some of you may have seen images from Hasbro's overseas offices with alicorn Twilight, these are in fact accurate. We have tried to do our best to weave this into the plot of S3, but this is still something that probably should never have happened. However, this pales into something that came down from above regarding S4 The ugly: "Derpy Hooves has been canned totally. As of Season 4, we are expressly forbidden to put her anywhere in a shot. After controversy last season, they attempted to pull her entirely, but due to fan backlash, decided "phasing the character out" would be a more effective way to get rid of her. You may have noticed her greatly reduced appearances in S3. This is in part because of that decision. The one thing I ask is that you don't blame us for what we have to do. The animators, composers, and script writers had nothing to do with this decision. there is nothing we can do. Short of an overwhelming response from the fanbase, I fear nothing can be done. At least I can say I tried to fix this Officially confirmed by the Hub's facebook page, Entertainment Weekly's website, writers, and Voice actors Confirmed (In progress) Everyone can clearly see that Derpy has been disappearing through decrease in appear ances in 1st hald of season 3 and complete lack of them in 2nd half of the season

Wait.
First part seen as a suprise hit, with good writing and suprising story telling from the Genre.
Second Part seen as the best, with incredible fan favourite characters, and a thrilling conclusion.
Part three good but flawed, with a silent villian and a controversial ending.
My god, Friendship is magic is Mass effect.
