The series follows seven young female ponies who live in Ponyland, a society of anthropomorphic ponies. The girl ponies are Starlight, Sweetheart, Melody, Bright Eyes, Patch, Clover and Bon Bon. They live like humans as they attend school, frequent the localice cream shop, enter talent contests, and even roller skate. This is in contrast to the previous series which involved ponies and humans. Some of the girl ponies begin to show a romantic interest in the male ponies, Teddy, Ace and Lancer; they even go on dates with them. At least one song is performed by the ponies in every episode.

Reruns of the show continued on The Disney Channel until 1996. The show was also aired in syndication from 1993 to 1995. In the half-hour block, the first part featured an episode from the old 1980s series My Little Pony 'n Friends and the second part was an episode made for the new My Little Pony Tales series. When My Little Pony Tales and its songs were submitted to the US Copyright Office in 1993, the production codes were numbered from 200-01 to 200-13.
In 1992, Hasbro released toys of the 7 Pony Friends to the European market to complement its first generation My Little Pony toy line. They did not produce models for the three male ponies or the teacher from the series, Miss Hackney. Although My Little Pony originated in the United States, the toys were not marketed there. The family ponies, the Barringtons, the Sunbrights, and the Meadowsweets were also made into toys, but were only marketed in select European countries. Several pieces of merchandise were marketed in Europe with the Seven Characters on them, such as comic books, an alarm clock, a backpack, an umbrella and a money box.
