South Park is a show meant for adults, its humour may be juvenile at times but at other times there are things that only adults would truly understand.
My Little Pony is child oriented making it automatically less mature than any other show no matter how you view it. The fact that this is a 16 page thread filled with grown adults praising the show, it makes me wonder the maturity level of all of you.
Theres a difference between being able to stand a show (like most adults sticking around for Barney because of their child) and actually taking the time to sit down and watch it with no child present, the latter is what worries me.
Look at it this way.
South Park is like a comedic escapism. Adult oriented with shock value but saturated with immature humor.
MLP isn't much different other than it is genuinely tasteful and has significant character development, animation, easy-to-grasp and follow storyline with humor that can easily be molded into interpretation and imagination; hence all the memes.
South park has the tact of a rock when it comes to appeal and humor. Blunt and insignificant. MLP may be for children, but it's the adult mind that squeezes the best of inner substance that flies over children's heads.
