Well... yeah, I guess that's one of the lines between all-audiences shows and shows aimed only at children. One form of appeal to the older viewers is some of the violence and darkness, and when Sombra shattered to pieces, there weren't propeller blades involved like Rourke... and who could forget Clayton getting hanged?

Just you don't see that kind of thing in Caillou, Dora the Explorer, Mike the Knight, or Max and Ruby (atleast I don't think, assuming from the commercials). MLP is more on par with Disney movies, not them, and even in the eps without villains it's got more appeal that they intentionally throw in, especially in MMMystery on the Friendship Express.
