    As much as me, the other members of littlestrpg.proboards.com and all eleven members of my group LPS Fans like and maybe even love LPS would hate to admit it you may have a point but you also have to take into account that a large majority of the people in the Petter Fandom are also members of the Brony fandom and they wouldn't have discovered or even watched LPS if it weren't for the promos advertising it on top of the fact that LPS comes on after MLP FiM every Saturday morning.

    I said at the beginning of this thread that it would most likely be an impossibility due to how LPS essentially uses the same gimmick to attract an audience as MLP, not to mention a majority of fans for LPS have come from the brony community.

    A fandom riding on the coattails of another fandom is not going to surpass it's predecessor level as fame, unless both fandoms die out enough to reach equality. But if we're talking all-time-highs, then that's never going to happen.

    Truthfully, I am not afraid to admit to admit that Bronydom has a bigger following then Petters, to me it's kinda common sense. I mean we got news putting Bronies in bad light( which may have even made more people Bronies rather then chase them away), Fan fic writers, People who create Music, Bronycon's etc.etc.etc. Right now Brony dom is like at Harry Potter or like Star Wars when it comes to fandoms. It's pretty huge, and they are just gonna get bigger, but here's the thing, just because LPS will never have a following like FIM, doesn't mean it's bad or anything. FIM is just a really HUGE fan base, and it would take a lot to be as big as that. It's like comparing a Harry Potter fan base with like hmmmmmmmm ....... I can't think of a good comparison here. My point? Just Because product A has a bigger fan base, then "Product B" doesn't mean I'll like Product B any less.

    Because LPS hasn't been around very long and i'm sure not many people know about the fandom yet plus I think it's a pretty good topic to talk about that's why

    Let's be real here, I don't think that making the show known on this site is necessary whatsoever.
    LPS made its mark in the shadow of the MLP fandom.
    This is an MLP site.

    You do the math.

    Not to mention there are multiple members who have LPS avatars and signatures.
    Granted, I've done the same thing with the Homestuck thread, but I let it die because it just happened naturally despite my wanting to talk about it; people just weren't interested.

    Being overzealous with something is /not/ the way to spread the word.

    Like Jehovah's Witnesses! I'm an LPS fan too but I agree that this thread has probably run its course.

    I enjoyed that even though his name is Vinnie not Lenny and his last name is Terrio not Larrio.

    BSCkids was given an exclusive music video to share with you from this Saturday's season finale, "Summertime Blues", that (apparently) "pays homage to the Live Aid music video from the '80s".

    WARNING: This clip contains mega-spoilers, and is known to cause mega-feels in some persons. Watch at your own risk.

    I remember when the first episode aired last November. We were but a few souls who were brave enough to try out this brand new show on The Hub. And what we got was something amazing. Extraordinary. And, 5 1/2 months later, we are hundreds upon hundreds of artists, musicians, writers, and ordinary people from all walks of life, all over the world, who fell in love with a good TV show, and are brave enough to say they love "Littlest Pet Shop". We are a fandom. We are a community.

    This.

    That link wasn't even on topic to the question the thread even asks.
    I'm positive there's a LPS thread elsewhere on the site, go use that, you had your question answered.
