From what I've picked up on all this is that Season 3 is going to be mostly a world-building season (Which helps explain its shortness) and seems to be kinda a continuation of Season 2 in the fact that there is obvious brony influence on what the shows are like. Just what I've picked up on all this.
I am really interested in this Brony documentary thats being made, any more infromation than what is on the website?
^ I haven't seen any more info but then again I haven't looked yet. I'll have a snoop around and see what I can find. ^^
the hub have released a countdown to the premier of season 3 here is the link http://www.hubworld.com/my-little-pony/shows/friendship-is-magic its about half way down the page
I just found out that the reason why there are thirteen episodes this season is because Hasbro decided to cut cost and maximize profit. *Sigh*
And then there are people like me who don't buy any pony merchandise at all, so I ain't helping them maximize profits. Plus, it was just like 6 people who mailed in saying that Derpy was offensive. I have no problem with Derpy, and I would label myself conservative. It's just the ÜBERconservatives that bring the sucks to everyone else's day.
so awesome also, note air date: 17 of November. That means that episode 1 and 2 of season 3 will be on same day.
