There are tracks. Maybe gyms are outdoors? :pinkieshrug:

That could be. But maybe have indoor gyms in place anyway when the Pegasi need to have it rain. :awkward:

To be honest, I doubt they really need gyms as much as we do, at least for cardio exercises. Remember that Equestrians still generally walk or fly everywhere they go. I doubt that epidemic obesity exists in their society at all.

Well there are some variations, we have skinny ponies like Fleur & the princesses, lanky ponies like Featherweight & snails, chubby ponies like Snips & Ms. Cake. Etc. But yeah, most ponies seem to have the same medium body type.

Eh. If there's one thing Twilight does a lot of, it's magic, and I'm sure magic burns a lot of calories. After all, energy can't be created, only converted, and the process of magic sure does seem to involve a lot of energy transfer in some form or another.

Of course! Ponies are basically big, pastel ants. And you almost never see a fat ant, do you?

Actually fat ants exist, sort of - some species have a caste of workers whose only job is to become big, swollen pods filled with a honey-like substance; this helps the other ants of the hive to survive during the winter or when food is scarce otherwise. There are a lot of countries where these ants are a sort of delicacy, too, which only shows the diversity of human experience and cuisine and that a lot of people are ready to eat anything when hunger strikes

If anyone is interested look up honeypot ants on Wikipedia. If insects of any kind give you the willies don't :modesty:

No this has nothing to do with ponies and should never have to do anything with ponies, ever

What about that time Twilight had a gut after eating the pie, and then Rainbow Dash hit her and it was gone. Maybe that's what happens to pony fat. :-I

Does it really count as a marathon if they're only airing episodes from 9 AM to 7 PM on each day? I mean, it's nice that they're not going to show it when everyone who gets the Hub is asleep, but the idea of :ponydrugs: 24/7 is a funny one.

Don't be hatin'. It's kinda a big deal for them to do that for the first time. Disappointing they won't air A Very Minty Christmas but I guess they'll air it around the holidays.
:socks: I look forward to all the kids whose minds will be blown by the mention of "Unicornia" and a Rarity who likes mud.

I'm getting really sad SDCC is really going to be EqG2 info only and S5 is going to be delayed until 2015, from what I'm seeing.

Are you so certain about what'll happen at SDCC? Unless you have another source, this is literally all we know right now:
Guests from Hasbro Studios My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic airing on the Hub Network in the U.S. and My Little Pony Equestria Girls share details of the making of the popular animated series and a sneak peek into the new My Little Pony Equestria Girls Rainbow Rock movie coming this fall. Q&A with members of the Hasbro Studios team and voice talent.

The continued reiteration of 2015 at this point + no signs of S5 coming at SDCC worry me. EqG as a focus + its September release would definitely bridge the gap past November in Hasbro's minds.

I'll admit it's more of a pessimistic viewpoint by me, but I think the evidence is starting to mount.

Anyways, this is beautiful: http://media.press.discovery.com.s3.ama ... -athon.pdf - EVERY production number, confirming some of the confusing shifting of S4 highlighted by Big Jim in particular.

The only thing the episode threads here have wrong ATM is 418/419 being switched. But I'm not going to bother to change it at this point.

@wayoshi Meh,I'm sure well get a little bit of Season 5 info at SDCC


Also @Zamuel: I just wish they would show some G1 instead of G3.... But i guess they think that's too old to get kids attention. :pinkieshrug:

For SDCC, I'm sure we'll see something. Just expect an animatic or something. Did they mention what kind of panel it is? My Little Pony, or Equestria Girls specifically? Because if it's just MLP general (which I'm sure it is) we'll probably see a little bit of everything.

And who knows, maybe if there is nothing, they're saving it for NYCC to make an appearance.

I'd love to see G1 get aired on TV too. I'm sure it'll get its due soon enough since it's getting a DVD re-release this fall. It might even be that the G3 stuff is getting aired since it's already out and two of those are on the same DVD anyways.

They said it was both. They will be talking about Equestria Girls & Friendship Is Magic

@Zamuel: I hope so, seeing G1 pony reruns on the HUB would be fun! :allears: and yeah the G3 flicks are probably there to help promote the Shout Factory re-release.

Actually had a conversation with someone on a TF forum who said it was a little unfair that the HUB has shown G1 Transformers and G1 GI Joe but not G1 MLP. Older shows had their flaws but they also had their cool parts.

:spoiler: Besides, we need kids to be utterly terrified of ever going to Dream Valley as a vacation spot.

Exactly, there are flaws and great parts in all three of the shows. I can't imagine that Hasbro "can't" air it, because MLP was Sunbrow too.
