So lemme get this straight... You hate the WHOLE EPISODE because of one gag bit that everyone else thought was a minor flaw!?
Nope. I neglected to go into detail about why I didn't like the episode since I figured everyone had already discussed it to death a week ago and wouldn't want to listen to me complain. But since you asked: First off, I didn't HATE the episode, I was more sort of apathetic towards it. As in, I considered turning it off multiple times cause I was bored. The biggest issue I had with it is very simple: it wasn't funny. Humor is really subjective, so I couldn't really tell you
why it wasn't funny, but I didn't find it funny.
Plotwise, it didn't make much sense. Fluttershy goes from extreme doormat to overly aggressive bitch with nearly no prompting. Um, how? The whole issue with people like Fluttershy is that they can't assert themselves due to social anxiety. You can't just flip a switch and do a whole personality transplant.
I only mentioned that I had an issue with the aesop because I usually don't care about them at all, so it had to be an extreme failure for me to really notice.
Anyway, I don't really feel like trying to analyze my feelings and figure out the deep secret reason I didn't care for the episode... I just didn't like it.
