A couple of shows dropped some pony recently. That seems to be the things these days. It reminds me of web comics a year ago!
First off, the Comedy Central animated series Brickleberry dropped the Rarity you see above. And over on the Disney Channel, the show called "Fish Hooks" had an entire episode dedicated to one of the characters having an obsession with a pony. While there wasn't anything directly Friendship is Magic, it's pretty obvious where the idea came from. The trailer for that episode can be found below the break.
