Feature-length movie[edit]

Season 4 (2008–2012)[edit]

Season 4 gives out a change to the artwork style. The aging of the characters was changed to make the impression that the characters had become teenagers (or for Apple Dumplin', a child). The aging of the characters was further backed by the fact that Strawberry Shortcake was seen applying for a job and later driving a car in Big Country Fun and Berry Big Journeys.

Honey Pie and the other fillies were relegated to the role of background characters, with the character of Honey Pie Pony not having spoken since Let's Dance. She was implied to have moved to Ice Cream Island permanently in the book The Friendship Trip,[1] which featured the Year 4 characters, logically explaining why she appeared less in the series for the season.

During this season, many of the separate 22-minute segments have aired earlier internationally than in the United States. The series was exclusively released direct-to-video in the country.

The intro sequence is changed yet again, this time featuring especially-made footage.
