Clever self-aware humor, a more streamlined art style, and strong characterization.

Apparently it appeals to the autistic, as they find the emotions easy to read. I don't know how much truth there is to that.

While it may or may not be true, despite what many self-diagnosers would like to believe, far from the majority of *channers are autistic in any fashion.

It is known I have aspergers and I don't care for it. What does that do with the theory?

I think he was referring to lower-functioning levels of autism in this case.

I just tried to watch the first episode. 7 minutes in and I'm bored as fuck. It's well made for what it is (a children's TV show), but that doesn't change the fact that it's a children's TV show.

Well... it is the first episode. They're designed to be able to be watched in any order, so try something from way later into the show's run and see if you like it more?

Do you mean Suited for Success? Because 'Art of the Dress' is the name of the song in that episode.

TV Tropes is run by fans. It offers at least one fan's summary on why they enjoy the show. It was not intended to be encyclopedic.

Sonic Rainboom is the best episode in Season 1 in my opinion.

It's mainly people who really want to be a part of the brony fad because it's new and interesting (to them, at least) and really huge. So maybe there is some genuine enjoyment from the show, but how much there is is rapidly expanded to be a part of the cultural phenomenon.
