Kinda weird (and worrisome) we haven't heard ANYTHING from Jayson for a while. I still hope it isn't true.
Bravo to them, great idea.
Now you've tempted me to turn my Ron Burgandy suit into a make-shift Classy Big Mac ensamble.
A full takeover hasn't been known. I think I'm the only one who's suggested that.
- Lauren Faust (Executive Producer/Showrunner) left the show partway into season 2 production (while season 1 was still airing), and Jayson Thiessen (formerly a Supervising Director) was promoted to fill her position for season 2-3.
- Rob Renzetti (Story Editor) left at the end of season 2 production (while season 2 was still airing), and Meghan McCarthy (formerly a Writer) was promoted to fill his position for season 3.
- In Hasbro's PR campaign for the "Royal Wedding" season 2 ender (an episode written by Meghan), Meghan was sent out to do interviews, not Jayson, and a couple of media outlets (mistakenly?) referred to her as the Showrunner.
My crazy theory, kind of stumbled on as a joke, was that Jayson has also left the show (at the end of season 2's airing, around the end of a short season 3 production), and that Meghan has silently replaced him as the Showrunner for season 4.
I'm occasionally (when I remember) playing a game where I look for positive proof one way or the other, but the sane part of me says that this is all based on nothing, and that nobody should pester Jayson by asking if he's still employed, and that if someone did, it would remove all the fun of finding these things out for yourself.

Here's something she said recently
That's kinda sad, actually.
A guy make that in the small screen of 3DS, and it looks fantastic (if you have a 3DS and colors, it is in the best of the week gallery right now)

I never would have thought it was a negative thing that made her leave. I would have thought that making MLP popular with everyone upped her stock considerably and she had a billion offers and lots of money coming at her.
Lauren also said that later in the series she felt that she didn't have as much creative control as she did when the show began (which was a combination of both infinite and severely limited), and that the amount of creative control that remained was slightly less than she felt satisfied with.
It was rumored that she wanted to make a CMC spinoff that would somehow give her the control she wanted while avoiding whatever it was that was in her way, but Hasbro turned that idea down.
She also asked for people to stop prying, because she doesn't want to be responsible for a bunch of angry bronies flying off the handle and lynching people who've done nothing wrong. She knows better than to trust us completely.

People get burnt out all the time. She might want to get back on board in the future, or not. Either way, I wish her the best.
Aw, that Faust stuff is kind of depressing. 
I've been thinking about picking up Colors 3D for a while. Is it pretty decent, even for someone as bad at drawing as me?A guy make that in the small screen of 3DS, and it looks fantastic (if you have a 3DS and colors, it is in the best of the week gallery right now)

I don't recall any orgies, just a small fire that was quickly extinguished.
Although that could've just been a double entendre. I wasn't doing a lot of research on the event.

You know... I actually started work on a PMV for that song. Technically done(in that i have a full video for it), but I really think I should make it better(a lot better) before thinking about releasing it. Of course I haven't worked on it in months so... lol.

Absolutely, in fact I've always seen Matt and Trey having the same kind of "reaction" either if directly commenting about it or making an SP episode (which I'm sure is coming.
As for that Twilight pic, I just found it on Derpibooru, and from the thumbnail, it looks "naughtier" and I still can't really tell it's her singing. Is it supposed to be a parody of something specific?

Unless I'm just confusing things here, it is actually a reference to an episode of Adventure Time where the group sings a song about their friendship to open a magical door.
YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP.
A fantastic ep of a fantastic show.
WATCH IT.
Now its time for.
pony sleepover.

I recommend you to get it. Its easy to use and has a amazing community with lots of fantastic 3D drawings for looking and enjoy.

Well, he made a career of making fun of movies that took themselves too seriously, but I guess he forgot fanbases and movies are two different kettles of bees.
Angry, angry bees.

It's like getting pissed if South park makes fun of you after making fun of everyone else. Read his Twitter, he never meant to offend anyone.

I dont really give a shit, I just wanted to use the "beaten spouse" line.
I'll get offended at anyone who calls me a pervert and I thinks I'll just laugh it off. That's crossing a line for me.
New official plushes that should appear at Target at the end of July. Getting closer, Hasbro, but you still have more work to do before I'm touching one.

Well that's progress I guess. At this rate we'll have stuff almost the quality of the fanmade stuff on store shelves by September 2015. And I will buy them.
Ehhh. I guess these are smaller and cheaper plushies for people who won't be able to afford the other ones...
