News! I'm sure some of you saw this, as it's from yesterday, but Equestria Daily went to a showing of the finale. Here's the link to their post about it. There aren't any spoilers, don't worry. Here's the important parts...
"On the other end of the spectrum, all of The Hub's foalks really loved us. We talked to whole assortment of them from different levels in the company, and they were all completely ecstatic. A few of them actually visit EQD every few hours just to catch up on what the community is up to. It's not often the top tiers in a company actually explore fan sites for fun. Needless to say, it was awesome to see how excited they are about us, and promise a ton of cool stuff in the future dedicated to bronydom, including a few hints at some cool merch even beyond the upcoming Scratch/Trixie/Nightmare Moon/Zecora sets.
I'm sure you are all curious about the actual screening of the episode though! For the sake of spoilers, the only thing I can say is that it is seriously the most epic two part we have received so far. Back to back, it feels like a Lion King style high budget Disney movie. I'm really glad we won't have to wait a week between the two when they both air on the 21st. That's all I'm saying though!"
TL;DR - The Hub loves us and promises new pony stuff, and the finale is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Oh, and Tara loves her "brony army" on Twitter. And apparently makes them sing this to get an autograph.
