This is a Pinkie episode and that means plenty of really cartoony humor. It seems rarer and rarer to find good cartoony humor in modern animation, and that is what makes these episodes such a delight. All the jokes really hit. This includes both the slapstick and the verbal humor. These jokes are perfectly timed to work as well as possible. The animation is really well done and supports the jokes very well. On top of that Pinkie is both at her most eccentric and funny and at her most believable and relatable. This is because all of her over the topness comes from places we understand. We relate to and feel all her emotions with her, which makes us understand her over the top reactions and slapstick humor.
If this episode has one problem it is that Applebuck Season already did the moral, but this episode is so enjoyable that that is not a big deal at all.
By the way Pinkie is a car.
