Probably because most of the kids in the target demographic haven't seen The Big Lebowski. They would probably just think they were weird ponies who liked to bowl and are holding something funny at the end, while the parents and older fans more in-the-know will see it and recognize the reference.
You can get away with a lot of stuff on kids shows as long as you're clever and sneaky about it.

marshmallow wrote:I generally hate the ridiculous horse language so much of the fandom embraces. Reading "everypony" and "anypony" for long stretches drives me crazy. It started off cute in the show here and there, but now it's all they use. Good lord, just use everybody and everyone. And don't even get me started on when fans complain about calling them "people." Ponies are people, my friend.
