Too little, too late.

Completely uninspired writers and animators.

They saw how successful the MLP reboot was, so they threw a little money at an animation studio but they didn't bother hiring anybody with actual talent to make it all work.

So the basic designs are sort of cute enough, but the actual cartoons themselves were garbage.

No interracial gangbang episodes

Budget was really low, and they tried to cram a story that could've been spread out through a season into 3 episodes. The stuff with Stormy and the resolution of it just felt rushed.

Everything. Besides the overall poor quality and poor distribution, the voices were poorly cast. Especially Emily Osment, whom I do enjoy, but her voice was wrong for this character.

On top of all that, Rainbow Brite doesn't generate anywhere near the same amount of nostalgia as MLP, and Hallmark doesn't have the same kind of marketing savvy as Hasbro.

Almost nobody liked the previous gens of MLP, people liked the reboot because it was surprisingly good by its own. The makers of Rainbow Brite thought that it was as simple as making a girly cartoon with cute characters to make a fanbase and they didn't think they need it to actually be good.

There was no a /mlp/ board back in 2010, all the threads were here in /co/ until they started to ban pony threads because there was just too many of them. Then bronies created Ponychan and then 4chan made /mlp/.

You know that movie ends with Rainbow straight murdering a bitch, right?

This guy has it down. The animation was tired, the scripts were lame, there was no actual reason for it to exist. I don't even remember if there was any drive the plot beyond selling the redesigns.

The fact is was three episodes long on a pay site with less overall quality than Llama's with Hats didn't help at all.

Hallmark saw there was money in 80's nostalgia, put the minimal amount of effort in trying to get that money and it shows in that it's a cheap knock off designed with little understanding of the source material like G3.5 Babies.
