I'm not going to discuss Twilight's transformation, still the pacing of this episode was horrible. I know, I know, there are several reasons why S3 had only 13 episodes, but knowing that doesn't make it more fun to watch. This story could have easily filled two episodes.

And that was my problem with the whole 3rd season. Knowing that it would only have 13 episodes seemed to set the writers under extreme pressure, as opposed to S2 where they had 26 episodes to let things develop slowly and in detail. Especially Twilight's learning about friendship, which ultimately lead to her transformation, should have been worked out muuuch more in S3. Right now, it's just Celestia saying this with hardly any background. It's just a statement without much content.

I hope that the 4th season will grab that S2 spirit up again, regardless of Twilight being an Alicorn.
