Episodes 7 or 9 are usually where people say they really like it, and if you don't, that's fine.
Indeed. As with most slice-of-life type shows, the more you watch it the better it gets because you understand the characters more and can laugh at how their personalities interact.

And I finally got around to watching a few episodes of Gravity Falls, and it is awesome. :D

Any brony would tell you that the first couple episodes are of lower quality than the rest.

Insane is more like it...

No not for any of the ordinary reasons (Their nation is called Horse Land?) but because the immediate instinct pony's seem to have when a introverted member flies over with terrible jet lag and does a lot of work and seems to want to be left alone and rest... is to throw a roaring party.

Let me just say... Ponys are TERRIBLE people.

I caught a newer episode of Dan Vs. today, and it looks much better in season 2 than it did in season 1.  Well, mostly just the driving scenes were done in CGI, which didn't stick out too badly instead of poorly done flash as in S1.  Also, the movements were smoother for the characters in general.

Well... they are Ponies after-all... not people.  As a race, on the personality charts, they have a higher average in stuff like Friendliness and Cheerfulness...  Though, the Pink one in particular is quite... immoderate among their race.

not people

People doesn't mean human. Being entirely inconsiderate towards someone's feelings because of your own ego in big and elaborate ways is something they did CONSTANTLY in the first episode.

They are very malicious with their kindness.

The problem with FiM is that, despite the nice art style and wackiness, in the end it still suffers from the same broken aesops of old children shows: always bow to peer pressure, complainer is wrong, turn that frown upside down, if you pretend to have fun you may have some eventually, blah blah blah.

They're *slightly* updated with more modern moral standards, I guess, and it at least seems to focus more on the comical side instead of being so heavy handed. Still, any enjoyment I derived from (some episodes of) the show was despite the whole What I Learned Today shtick, not because of it.

I watched an episode of Sonic SatAM, and while it was certainly enjoyable, Sonic was just irritating and made me want to choke him.  It's also quite amusing thinking about the night and day difference between the dark SatAM and the insane Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, even though both aired at the same time.

Dr. Robotnik is awesome in both cartoons, despite being completely different in each iteration.  Of course, he's a lovable rrrrrapscallion no matter what he's in.

Saw Kung Fu Panda 2 and to me it was a improvement over the first movie in every single way (ok, the first movie did do some things better)

Heck I like this movie didn't make Po's special power that "He is fat GET IT! FAT!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!! Now he will automatically win the battle because blubber".

I also like how the prediction (A Warrior of Black and White will stand in his way) has a double meaning if you understand Yin and Yan. Heck I expected that to be explained but I guess since it is for children it would be too far above their heads to understand the idea of inner and outer mastery, of the fist and palm.

Duuuude thanks for mentioning Sonic SatAM, that was the best nostalgic trip ever.

So I just finished the first season of LoK, and I am rather impressed. However, the fact that the show was originally a 12 episode miniseries is reaaaally obvious. I'm confused by where the show is going to go in the next season, but I guess i'll just have to watch to find out.

fuck me, so it is, I feel very silly now.

I guess I'll catch it on tv when it starts airing again. When does it start airing again anyway?
