"Hard To Say Anything"...gets a 7/10 from me.
Pros:
-Loved Big Mac in this episode in his adorable awkwardness having the hots for another mare. His characterization here was really very sweet both in his interactions with the CMC and with Sugar Belle and while not reaching the pinnacle of Big Mac characterization that was "Brotherhooves Social", this was still among his more memorable appearances.
-Sugar Belle, while not my favorite of the Friendtastic Fours' female ensemble, was quite nice in this on as well by being...well, sweet as sugar. So adorable and her reactions to the sudden attention she got from her suitors was understandable. And her sort-of-raspy voice only makes her more lovable.
-Was surprised in a nice way that they actually went through with making Big Mac and Sugar Belle a couple. I thought that at the point where Sugar Belle sees through Scootaloo's disguise that that would be the breaking point, but they managed to avoid that pitfall and let Big Mac have his happy ending. That Featherbangs got a nice ending was sweet as well (though I will come to him in the cons below)
-Some good humor with the CMC in their interactions with Big Mac, especially the recalls to "Hearts And Hooves Day".
Cons:
-Featherbangs has to be one of the most irratating characters I have seen in quite some time. His voice, his hair flip, his one-noteness as a character (would have been nice if we knew why he was interested in Sugar Belle especially), the song...ugh! Every time he was on screen, I felt murderous intents arising. Just don't like him.
-The CMC brought a bit too much cringe in this one and their attempts in bringing Sugar and Mac together felt like something the CMCs of the earlier seasons would do and not something the more mature CMCs of today would do. This actually felt a lot like the love poison episode in the CMC's attempts.
-The song(s) were not among MLP's finest outputs (Big Mac's was too cringey and Featherbangs was just...yeesh!) and to think that this wasted a slot of Daniel's five songs this season (I hope at least they both count only as one song) makes me sad. Not to mention the song scene went on way too long.
So all in all, this deserves its 7/10.

Watched a little bit of the most recent EqG special that aired in Poland. While I couldn't understand what they were saying, looked interesting. Also, eunos will like that, even for a little bit, we get Pony Shimmer back. Curious to hear it in English though. But that will have to wait a while. For now, Obliga-Twi.

Darnit, Big Mac, you are sneaky. Dropping those apples on purpose to make Sugar Belle pick them up just you can follow the plot.

So MD, do you hate Feather Bangs more than Cheese Sandwich?

G1 ponies? Also, GreyScaleLJH, at least Cheese Sandwich's songs did not make me cringe, so Cheese Sandwich is far ahead of Feather Tanks. Could be that Sugar Belle has a crush on him...or she has a terrible, terrible apple addiction from birth.

Sugar Belle is better than Ash Ketchum when it comes to seeing through disguises.

Though it probably helped that there were next to no opportunity for her to have actually met the CMC before this.
Cutie Mark Crusaders? More like Cutie Mark Creepazoids.

Possibly stating the obvious here but whatever chav. It's safe to say that those admires of Feather Twat were based on these 3 from Beauty and the Beast right? Meaning that Twatty bang should have fallen to his demise at the end.
