I watch it all the time I do that with all shows personally its part of the show and the mlp one just helps me calm down if I'm stressed out.
I had to admit, I originally cringed at it when I first watched it. It starts off like the cringe-worthy original and then the guitar and swelling choir joins in and I got into it. It shows how much it changes from the original so much.
I usually skip it, not because it isn't enjoyable. I prerecord the episodes and watch them later and I always skip intros when I can for any show. Sent from my XT1080M using Tapatalk
