www.equestriadaily.com/2013/07/list-of-writers-involved-in-season-4.html#moreWe have two massive departures in Cindy Murrow and especially M.A. Larson. This really worries me. Larson is the writer you turn to for series continuity. Cindy Murrow also provides a lot of the heart of the show. Those two leaving creates a very big hole in the writing of this series. The resumes of the new writers are everywhere. Scott Sonneborn and Josh Haber have worked on two other Hub series (and Sonneborn has the weirdest resume ever.) This only chips away at my cautious optimism about Season 4 further. Two pillars of the series are gone (according to Cindy she was excluded) and I don't know if any of these new people will fill their roles.

That's it. I give up. I'm going to go to a pony board where people's confidence isn't so easily shattered.

Well, the two are apparently taking a break do to working on other things. Larson has a book series coming out and I don't know what Murrow is doing.

Oh will you two give it a rest!
Just beacuse two well know writers are not being used for a 4th season dose NOT mean the end!
This happens in the TV world ALL THE TIME!
man it was like when Laurn Faust wasnt going to be the leade on Seasons 2 and 3, the show hasnt bombed, I dought it will bomb for awhile.
Many of the G1 Transformer writers worked on other cartoons, and some movies. I could list only 3 names as the writers for the movie who also worked on the seriese, it didnt bomb.
These two will proberly work on other HUB projects and will no dought be back on project MLP to work with or as part as another team.

Thank you, Zero. When last I looked, Faust started off as the heart and soul of the series. Her leaving did not make it become terrible. Can we all please just give Season 4 a chance to show its stuff?

This is why I do not read anything to do with a new series or season coming out because of the drama.
Give Season 4 a chance.
I was stood fast into NOT to see Season 3 of Prime because I thought it was going to be an epic fail of Unicron proportions, but you know what I bit the bullet and gave it a chance and it has impressed me, ok the toys I think are fugly as sin, but I won’t hold that against them.
So please for the love of sanity just GIVE IT A CHANCE!!

Yep, and another thing I'd like to point out. It's rare for anyone to work on an animated series for more than two years. The writing team gets switched out all the time in animation. Nothing has ruined MLP:FIM yet, so I don't see why some new writers will spell doom for it now.
