“My Little Pony” To End With 90-Minute Primetime Special

 

 

Discovery Family Channel will soon air a 90-minute series finale for My Little Pony. The kid-friendly series that is responsible for billions of merchandise dollars for Hasbro will get a prime-time send off on October 12th @ 8 pm ET/PT. According to THR,

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, which debuted in 2010, follows the magical Princess Twilight Sparkle and her trusted dragon assistant Spike, who live in Ponyville in the enchanted land of Equestria, along with her colorful pony friends — honest Applejack, generous Rarity, kind Fluttershy, loyal Rainbow Dash and fun-loving Pinkie Pie. Together, they teach one another valuable lessons about the most powerful magic of all – the magic of friendship.

The series finale special will find the “Mane Six” working to save the kingdom as they fight a villainous alliance that unleashes their unified might on Equestria. Then, years later in the future, Princess Twilight is visited by a student with a friendship problem. As she attempts to solve it, she looks back on the times she and the Mane Six spent together.
