Fans rejoiced when the Hub returned the cartoon “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” to the airwaves. The show’s third season premiered on Saturday, Nov. 10, with a two-part episode where the “Mane Six” (Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy) try to rescue a new Equestrian race, the Crystal Ponies.

Some Bronies – fans of “MLP:FIM” – in our community were asked about their expectations for season three.

Eric Dale, sophomore: “The continuation of a lighthearted series, that carries high entertainment value for those both young and old.”

Nicholas Allmeyer, senior: “With all the rumors going around, it’s hard to distinguish the fact or fiction, but I’m really looking forward to the return of Discord [a villain introduced in season 2]. Other than that, I’m especially looking forward to the episodes ‘Too Many Pinkie Pies,’ ‘Magic Duel,’ and ‘Wonderbolt Academy.’”

Meranda Corona, sophomore: “I am looking forward to all the songs.”

Sidney Broadley, sophomore: “I’m looking forward to all the bad guys they’re going to fight.”
