Syfy pulls the plug on Alphas, once and for all

Their mutant powers helped them save the world from Stanton Parish, but the Alphas’ special abilities weren’t enough to save them from Syfy’s axe. Syfy has cancelled the show once and for all.

Ponyville Recreated into Some Kind of Nightmare Diabetic Coma Town

This insanely detail oriented recreation of Ponyville from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is giving us the sugar sweats. Artfully reconstructed from icing, gingerbread and love by Devaint Artist Liebatron — the melting nightmare of it all is overwhelming.
