As I previously commented. It feels like...
 * a reset Fluttershy episode. No character development, just Fluttershy being standard Fluttershy.
 * an episode that could have deviated from her fear of spotlighting/singing. It could have focused on her insecurity to live up to compliments.
 * an episode that would have worked in Season 2. We've gotten too far with this character for her to act like this now.
 * Pinkie Pie's actions have been a roller coaster this season, not in a fun way. The writers continue to just use her as a 'filler pony' for an episode.
 * (I can laugh for what it is but I can also be disappointed)

The good
 * Rarity's reactions being justified. Also for her showing concern for her friend and the Ponytones.
 * Seeing Zecora again, she wasn't for one side or the other and willing to help out of amusement alone.
 * Big Mac, just seeing that he does have other hobbies besides farming.
 * The amount of events that Ponyville has / is getting. I live in a small city myself, so having festivals and events isn't uncommon. I can relate more to the setting for this season compared to the previous.
 * There were no antagonistic characters present just to be present. Unless you count Pinkie, but she wasn't the cause it was Fluttershy's own imagination.
