Title: MLP season 8; good places to watch with no TV?
Post by: BlueBelle on June 10, 2018, 08:29:02 AM
We did away with our tv service months ago because of the outrageous cost for stuff we hardly watched. You are forced to pay for the higher package to get certain channels. Yea nope.
But I was trying to figure out if anyone else manages to watch the pony episodes that don’t have TV either.
Well we do have something. We have an Apple TV, Netflix, you tube.
I managed to find videos online but it’s getting harder. They’re either backwards, in another language or have constant ads.
I realize these are pirated and I’d rather not watch those but no one offers legit copies!
But I thought I’d see if anyone knew anything or had any advice. Thanks in advance!

I've kinda resigned myself to waiting til it's on Netflix since I can't find anything on Youtube.

Yeah, it's really annoying that legal streaming services lag behind so badly.

I remember way back when the channel was The Hub, they actually uploaded the episodes on The Hub's website a couple of days after airing. Why did they have to stop?  :sad:

Well I know two places where you can find them on streaming but that's not really-really legal, you know.  :blush:

I have never gotten malware or anything like that from the site.  That said, I do use an ad-blocker.

I've recently started watching on dailymotion.com.  Though as you said, they are often flipped and sometimes the voices are off, high like its on fast forward a little.

I also like to watch Applegeek on youtube's reaction.  He shows the whole episode so it works in a pinch if I just can't find just the episode to watch first.  He is almost always very positive and never snarky unlike some other reactors.  He has also reacted to some older gen stuff and was very fair in his reactions to those, so he is the only Brony reactor I watch.

we have a roku stick and pay 20 dollars a month for a channel called Philo and it has the channel mlp is on, if you save the show it will have all aired episodes up for watching

other than that we wait for netflix and then we can binge with out commercials.

I think Discovery Family offers a service where you can watch the episodes on youtube, for like $2 a pop.
Everything else has been said already. I usually watch that one pony-news site for links to a file uploading site, but I've been catching them before new episodes of LPS in streams, also. I'm sure we're planning to get rid of our cable as well, soon, and the TV is a bother to get free in my family.

But even with an adblocker on depending on the browser the site can show ads with... uhm... interesting content.
I don't think BlueBelle should sit her kids in front of those typical "don't tell your girlfriend you played this hyper realistic game" animated banners :lol:

Ha ha, I know exactly the banners you mean!  :lol: She could put the video player on full-screen before showing the kids, though.

I hadn't even thought of that.  But I have a chrome cast and just cast it to my tv.  No banners that way.

Thanks so much everyone!  :)
I kinda figured those were my options but was curious on what others have been doing.
And yea I’m kinda starting to resign myself to waiting until Netflix finally catches up. Takes the fun out of enjoying the show if I have to work so hard at finding it. And yea usually dailymotion is the best I’ve been able to do. But lately they’re all backwards or they sound like they’re on helium.  :haha:
Plus lately there have been ads that turn it into a 40 minute work out (interrupts and sends me back to the beginning and sometimes twice in a row  :mad: instead of a 20 minute “relax and enjoy” .  :sleepy:
