Hub Commercial Air Time Reminder


We posted about The Hub's new pony schedule coming up in the next few weeks a couple of days ago, but they have released an official commercial for it with some new Rainbow Dash lines for you all to do whatever you want with!  It's not the most exciting news on the planet, but I'm sure she can be spliced into [INSERT TECHNO REMIX HERE] right before [INSERT DROP HERE] with this new "Punch holes in the sky!".

Check it out after the break.

PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKAH

Brony2you said...

OOooo, new sound clip of them saying "My Little Pony". Get to work musicians!

Ariathina said...

honestly my favorite part about this morning was seeing equestria girls played on the Hub advertising the show. that was the most badass moment of today.

Sintakhra said...

Punch Hole in the Sky Sparta Remix incoming in 3...2...1...

Laurence Brown said...

"Where ponies fight bears!"

*facepalms*

NYCLOAMR said...

punch holes in the sky! lol that's awesome.

bored0stiff said...

"Where ponies fight bears.."

Hub's new slogan.

Sebastian said...

So, MLP is now going to air three hours later?

JitteryJoe said...

So if I've done my maths right, the block starts at 6pm GMT and FiM is on about half past, right? Might be worth doing a post that has the times converted for us overseas bronies.

StealthBrony said...

The hub is a joke... MLP SAVES IT !

Nando said...

One of these things are not like the other!

One of these things are made for manly men!

CityFlyer502 said...

I don't think they could have picked better clips to promote the show. Yup, these aren't your average ponies. They're hardcore and badass!

Christian said...

And where ponies fight bears!

Twifight Sparkill said...

Ponies and puppies and bears, oh my.

Nostalgia Schmaltz said...

@The Irish Brony

Get that mess OUTTA HERE!

Anyways, yay. Ashleigh seems to really love voicing commercials, eh? :P

Tonzog said...

I actually saw this on TV in the study lounge at my college!

Nostalgia Schmaltz said...

@JitteryJoe

AFAIK it's now airing at 1pm EST (-05:00), which is indeed 6pm GMT. (00:00)

Cesar said...

@StealthBrony And Dan Vs. Let's not forget Dan Vs. That show is awesome (well, not as awesome as MLP, but still)

Nostalgia Schmaltz said...

@Tonzog

Your college gets The Hub? Lucky bastard...my college only gets CN and Nick and I think Disney for cartoons...that is, if I can figure out how to get the cable to even work with my TV.

Bolan said...

Ya the same amount of ponies but at a more convenient time!!!

Destroyer said...

Awww I use to wake up in the morning by watching a new episode of MLP. Now I have to find another reason to get up unless I wake up until 1:00

brony4444 said...

There's a place where puppies do puppy things, girls do girl things... and PONIES FIGHT BEARS.

Arcainum said...

Dammit, that's ruined my Saturday routine. 9-12 work, 1-3:30 pony stream, 3 hours killing time then D&D in the evening! IT WAS PERFECT, DAMN YOU!

Hat said...

Rainbow Dash just made that advertisement 2-

Agile Wings said...

Pretty cool advert, damn the new times, worked out a bit better for me before but least it gives some bronies a lie in.

redwings1340 said...

I'm sorry, but there's no way those girls are shredding guitars. They are more placing their hands on the guitars. Otherwise though, I love the marketing move. This is clearly a marketing appeal to bronies and a cut from traditional MLP ads where everything is, well, more like I imagine Strawberry Shortcake is. It's a refreshing move. We're creating a cultural shift, everypony! Keep it up!

Rafasde said...

OUR FRIENDSHIP IS THE FRIENDSHIP THAT WILL PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKAH!

pixelkitties said...

There's something very odd about hearing Rainbow Dash say "My Little Pony"! It's like she's suddenly become self-aware...

FreezingShock said...

You want some eggs with that ham, Rainbow? PUNCH HOLES IN DA SKAH!

Dainbow Rash said...

@Cesar Yes! Thank you for that :D

JD said...

ROFL Where ponies fight bears! Honestly that commercial would have sucked without ponies involved!

Trippn said...

@FreezingShock

PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY!!! We got to turn that into another pony Meme.

Mattatatta said...

PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY!

It sounds great shouting that out loud, go on, try it! It's awesome! Do the same for "WHERE PONIES FIGHT BEARS!", too!

Rafasde said...

I love how "bronies" is one of the tags for the video.

Recognition. Feels good, man.

FreezingShock said...

@Trippn

We definitely should. That whole commercial is ripe for memetic mutation. But you can't force memes, so let's hope it catches on ;)

TsarNicky said...

Brace yourselves...
"Punching holes in the sky" memes are coming.

And I'm going to love every minute of it.
I didn't understand the description you wrote there until I watched the video. It was awesome.

sorakun555 said...

Yay! Now I can stream at a decent time! Thank you HUB! You are the only television channel that brings me joy right now! (and that is no exaggeration. Seriously the only things on T.V. that I enjoy are Transformers and ponies WHICH I AM WAITING FOR HASBRO TO FINALLY DO IT AND COMBINE THE TWO!)

Flutterboss said...

@Arcainum If you watched it around 1-1:30pm before anyways, then just livestream it instead now...unless you don't live on the east coast in which...oh well.

DongleKumquat said...

Punching holes in the skah is now a meme

Jake said...

Yours is the Rainboom that will pierce the heavens...or at least punch holes in the sky! Wait, that's the same thing. Rainbow Dash is such a Gurren Lagann fan.

Mike said...

I like how it seems that they're trying to attract a wider range of viewers to the show. That's a good plan.

Ahiam94 said...

This commercial proves that without ponies The Hub would be a pretty crap channel.

Mike said...

@Cesar

YES. OVER 9000 TIMES YES.

tonnonostromo said...

"..girls shred guitars"
Preposterous.

jrk08004 said...

I'm just gonna leave this here.

jrk08004 said...

@Ahiam94

Dan Vs. is actually pretty good. If you haven't seen it I suggest trying it out.

cardshark78 said...

@Nostalgia Schmaltz

You have to upgrade your cable package. The Hub is a Digital Channel. Sure I might be paying more on my DirecTV bill, but after all, IT'S SO WORTH IT! It is one of the best channels I have seen in years.

Kyronea said...

Ponies fighting bears?

No problem. Just PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY!

...

Yeah okay I got nothing. I'm not good at using memes...

Zachary D. said...

Darn I thought it was brand new I saw this last friday

Rex2099 said...

I seen that last week on the Hub

FuckYouGoogle said...

'Scuse me while I PUNCH THE SKAH!

Jay said...

Did they moved the times or something

Pinstar said...

I love how they had the Fluttershy-murders-Harry the Bear scene in the promo without any context...

No seriously, I love that. They are well aware that this show is a break-off from past generations of ponies and aren't afraid to flaunt that when promoting it.

crazyredemu said...

@StealthBrony
The Hub has Transformers Prime and Dan Vs, Ponies are not alone.

Derpmind said...

Girls shredding guitars? Only on TV!

Knight Derpy said...

20 bits says Living Tombstone is the first to do a legitimate remix of this.
(Yay for betting with money that doesn't exist!)

Tealhollow said...

Punch holes in the sky!

Put that on a shirt. Now.

Bronyhub said...

@crazyredemu

Ya, in fact I just got into watching Dan Vs. it's actually pretty funny, and I know someone who acts just like Dan which makes it even funnier for me.

iloveMLP said...

w00t new schedule!!!!!

Octavia said...

Rather glad about the new schedule. Won't have to get up so darn early. :)

Saphyr said...

Quoting forever:

"Where ponies fight bears!"

- An actual description used for a kids' channel.

Corgidan said...

When is it on Central time?

Vega said...

Punch hole in the sky. Peirce the heaven has been usurp.

Knuckleshy said...

I think I know what I am going to try and to get to trend on Twitter before the next episode airs...

UltimateRogue said...

Rainbow dash can make anything 20% cooler

PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY! PONIES FIGHT BEARS! (shows Fluttershy giving bear a "massage")

Jedimom said...

There's also an "Equestria Girls" commercial out with the new time

-PonyJedi

Keksy said...

We Love Fine needs a shirt for "punching holes in the sky" now

Gelatart said...

I definitely have to applaud Hasbro and the Hub with their clever marketing of this show. Things like the Bridesmaids and Poltergeist Spoof, as well as the Equestria Gurls song, proves that they understand a big chunk of their audience. This ad is also really clever. While this one targets a younger demographic, it shows how Ponies aren't just girly anymore. They're exciting!

Unknown said...

I wish I could support the Hub by watching it on TV, but I don't have the channel. YouTube is just SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much more convenient. I'm interested in checking what other shows they have (like Transformers. I've never really been a fan, and I'm interested). Hopefully this show's popularity will draw attention to the Hub and they'll get some other awesome shows. :)

Shannon said...

I wish I could trade out, disney, nick and cartoon network so I could have the hub. ( how come # 1,2,and 3 can't seem to be any good?) Where does the hub rate on that anyway? I know I would like to see it on top!

Entertainer13 said...

@StealthBronyDude, it has Adam West Batman, Batman the Animated Series, Atomic Betty, and Transformers. Hub is cool. Ponies just make it... wait for it... 20% cooler!

SpininGears said...

Thank you hub, I needed dash to say bears.

mycutiemarkisagun said...

:\

Uh, am I the only one that saw this commercial a while ago?
