Faust actually wanted to make an episode about Big Mac, but since this IS a girl's franchise, they didn't want to make a him a major character.

The newest episode, Brotherhooves Social, makes Big Mac a more developed side character. Spike is also developed as well. Just because a character is funny doesn't mean they're only for comedic relief. Look at Pinkie Pie. The biggest form of comedic relief in this show is a MAIN character.
