First of all, you can't watch the show for free legally. You Pay your cable provider for that, who probably also paid the channel, which bought the licence.

Secondly, it wouldn't make sense economically. Would you buy a comic if it was just a retelling of a show's story? Some would, but not as much as when that story is exclusive. The show viewers won't feel that they are missing something, because the show avoids mentioning anything from the comics.

PS: Last month was the first time I've actually bought something pony-related. Yes, it was first story arc from the comics' main series worth in total 30 PLN.
