I have no doubt that it's entertaining. As I recall, the creator or producer or someone is the same person who did the Powerpuff Girls, which was also a pretty entertaining cartoon. But there's a huge difference between watching and enjoying the show (even with no kids in the room) and being so obsessed that you'll go out in public to buy too-small pony ears and discuss minutiae with like-minded, neck bearded people.
