The Nintendo fanboys around me say G4 MLP is a baby show, just said it was shown at daycare and once compared it to Teletubbies (which I also like but I love Boohbah more to be unique and I also love Nanalan). This breaks my heart as it was my childhood and I noticed some pretty mature topics, such as the Tirek battle (trust me, watch this), a BSDM pillow joke and Trixie attempting. In fact there is an entire video about this that I will link later. Thoughts?

I don’t think it’s a baby show. I’m more into Gen 3 My Little Pony. Friendship is Magic does have mature themes like Discord brainwashing the ponies. Reminds me of manipulation. In my opinion most kid’s shows have adult and mature topics. Like in Hey Arnold where Helga goes into therapy.

Other than My Little Pony, Courage The Cowardly Dog has very mature themes. Such as the Kitty and Bunny and the one where people are being used for growing and harvesting hair.

I wouldn't say that FiM is a "baby" show by any means. It's not super mature or anything either. It's in line with other "older kids" kinda cartoons (like The Powerpuff Girls back from my time). Don't know why people would call it a "baby" show? Have they even watched cartoons aimed at toddlers and such?

I have come to my conclusion: it IS for babies, and will always be. It's more of a baby show than Looney Tunes somehow, if not just as babyish.

Don't laugh at me... I didn't grow up on anything good, and my family banning me from Nickelodeon is probably why I was bullied as early as kindergarten which caused me to be the weird kid I am today... :cry:

I just think you're wasting your time caring about what negative people say online about shows. Just watch them for yourself and see what you like.
