Actually, there are multiple episodes focused on family this season. A Flurry of Emotions, Rock Solid Friendship, Forever Filly, Parental Glideance, A Royal Problem, and The Perfect Pear. That's not even counting the upcoming episodes. As for your comment about the legends, I remember someone from the staff (Jim, I think) saying that the theme is "family and legacy", so there's that.
