The way I see it, the design of the show is characters we love, and a new light to the My Little Pony name that strays away from the little girl show of G2 and G3, with appeal to older viewers, humor, and references to things like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Star Trek (even got John de Lancie as Q's counterpart Discord), James Bond, hay they've even got the Wilhelm Scream in Season 3.

Season 3 has a land like Isengard, a Sauron counterpart, a spectacular death scene for him, Trixie's return, a positive portrayal of Rainbow Dash by Merriweather (whom many dislike especially for her portrayal of Dash in The Mysterious Mare Do Well), Discord's return, more Princess Cadance and Shining Armor, a song by Applejack, and three appearances by Princess Luna. You want to know the only thing that disappointed me about Season 3? There wasn't as many scenes of biting tails as in the first two seasons! (And the only one of the three that had a pony doing the biting was Applejack biting Rainbow's tail in the second episode). And I didn't let that ruin the show for me.

Basically since Derpy's death and King Sombra (who was only a flat character with little screentime because he was based off Sauron), the fandom is divided into the ones who stay true to the series and the ones who complain about everything, and it looks like we'll lose one half after Twilight becomes an alicorn. Guess which half.
