My kids both love Derpy and try to kiss her on the screen when she pops out in season 1 and 2. After Hasbro regulated that she be extremely restricted in the show and removed her name from everything, now her S3 appearances are too brief or well hidden for them to notice. We do also own the Friendship Express DVD so it makes it even weirder when we watch the iTunes version during the afternoon on our media PC and then the DVD version at bedtime on the DVD player upstairs. In happier news, my 5 year old actually made friends with a girl in her kindergarten who has strabismus because my daughter pointed to her and said "That girl has eyes like Derpy, I am gonna go play with her." Without Derpy Hooves, I would believe my daughter would have been much more uncomfortable with the condition and treated the girl with caution instead of friendship. I am waiting sadly for the day when she asks if her friend will "disappear" like Derpy did.
