This episode may be nothing spectacular, but not every episode of a show needs to be. This is instead just a nice enjoyable episode. The best thing about this episode is the humor. If Scootaloo got to shine last week than Sweetie Belle gets to shine this week. Her love of fairytales was charming and her line about growing older because it was a long ride there was quite funny. I also love how when she tries to pass it off as she used to love fairytales, she just happens to have the book with her (also in the illustrations why do the princesses not have wings?). Also helping the episode out is Big Mac's song. Again Daniel Ingram can really write a country song and I love whenever a song from this show is in that genre. Even though that ends up leading into a comedy sequence, the song before than is actually quite good. Though I know it is part of the story, I was kind of disappointed when Feather Bangs interrupted it. The relationship between Big Mac and Sugar Belle is fully believable and charming. My fellow Disney fans should also enjoy a great Beauty and the Beast reference in this episode.
However this episode does have its flaws as well. Feather Bangs, is kind of a bland character and feels like he was made for plot convince. The story also feels like it has been done before, with little new added. However the episode is certainty fun enough to make up for these faults.
