It wasn't brilliant but it was certianly passable. It suffers from the same problem as Three's A Crowd, basically that any Discord-featuring episode tends to be overwhelmed by his Big Ham personality and the simple fact that he's a walking, talking deus ex machina that fires off several times an episode. There is also the fact that he is increasingly a reflection of Earth's popular culture from about one to two decades back.

It wasn't bad, though. It actually has lots of nice parts. What I really liked is Spike taking Twilight's or Fluttershy's role as the sensible one who has to rein in Discord's anarchic personality. It was also a nice little touch that we were reminded that Discord is mad, bad and dangerous to know and that, if he loses his temper, he has a tendency to forget that he's supposed to be a good guy these days. Did anyone notice the costume from The Mask that he wore during the nightclub scene?

At the end, well I think we saw that Fluttershy was glad to see Discord had made new friends (cue letter to 'Kay-Kay'?). We are also reminded that Rainbow likes to imagine that she's cool but, actually, she's a nerd. I strongly suspect that O&O night is about to become something very big for her alongside the Daring Do reading club!
