EQUESTRIA GIRLS: BradDemic is the fifty-second episode of ZXInsanity's "Equestria Girls Parody Series". It is preceded by A Real Spooky Day (DIRECTOR'S CUT).
It was produced by DXIndustriesInc, and released on November 1, 2020.
==Synopsis==
Ponyville has become empty due to a quarantine, and everyone was required to stay six Brads away from each other. Rainbow Dash crashes on a sign, Rarity (who wears a hygienic mask) runs and screams in terror, and many signs were placed outside the Golden Oaks Library to keep visitors away.
Spike was watching some shows in the television, remarking about how much he enjoyed his life indoors. Fluttershy gave him a phone call, but Spike declines and throws his phone away. He went back to turning on his television, but he got disappointed as much of the programme was very different.
Someone sprayed a sanitiser liquid on Spike, and he found out that it was Twilight Sparkle. Both of them watch the news, hosted by DXIndustriesInc, which told about these events:
* Bradbooru got shut down due to scrutiny from ten-year-olds.
* Chancellor Neighsay was upset over the shutdown of Bradbooru, as he would be unable to express his hatred of furries.
* The Brad Cyborgs slowly approach Ponyville, infecting the locals.
Spike wanted Twilight to change the channel, but she refused, as she considered the news to be important. Twilight wondered about how her friends were dealing with the news: Rarity was still screaming in fear. Twilight returned to her laboratory, while Spike was playing a game of Ratchet and Brad. She was developing a cure and she showed it to Queen Chrysalis and Discord.

==Trivia==
*The episode's name, "Brademic", is a reference to "pandemic", specifically the COVID-19 Pandemic.
*One measure used during the COVID-19 Pandemic was that people were to keep a distance of six feet away from each other. It is parodied by using Brad heads (Brads) instead of feet.
*Spike mentioned that the COVID-19 virus had also affected Equestria, killing people; the Annoying Orange became a president (possibly of America); and BradBurger had been shut down. He was also excited to try out the BradStation 5.
*An advertisement, hosted by Spike, appears several times in the episode.

**Channel 9 News
*"Brad Shadow Legends", the game that sponsors this episode, was based on Raid: Shadow Legends, a fantasy role-playing mobile game. It became an infamous Internet meme after its annoying sponsorship of various Youtube and Twitch video-makers.
*The shutdown of Bradbooru was influenced by the racism scandal on the popular image website Derpibooru.
*Chancellor Neighsay was a villain from Season 8 of MLP:FiM, where he tried to shut down a school for foreign students in Equestria.
*The Brad Cyborgs were based on the Cybermen, villains from Doctor Who who kill anyone who refuses to be converted into robots.
