I Dream of Twilight modblog
In terms of how "What About Discord" actually fares, while I will agree that it's the weakest Discord episode so far in the series, even then, I still thought it was fine in all honesty. For me, I really don't think there's anything objectively BAD about it, I just thought that it had a much more mellow and laid-back tone.

Yeah, I think I said as such in my thoughts about it. It’s not really a bad episode by any means IMO. Definitely just a different direction then you’d expect a Discord episode to go since we’ve come to expect the crazy fun like we got in Three’s a Crowd and Make New Friends But Keep Discord.

So it feels kinda like a disappointment in Entertainment Value since just like Twilight In-Episode we’re kept in the dark why the Mane 6 find Discord’s jokes funny. Though of course that was the intention of the episode. Just not everyone will agree that results in a good episode to rewatch.

And then there are those who think the moral was entirely flubbed because of Discord getting his comeuppance, so when someone isn’t entertained AND they feel it messed up the moral. Some may have gotten kinda upset about the episode as a result.
