* AccidentalInnuendo: Filthy Rich is embarrassed by his first name simply because... well... it means "mucky" or "messy" after all but it isn't hard to think it also makes him sound like a ''porn star''... especially when he just gets "Filthy".
* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: With Filthy Rich's [[AdaptationalVillainy more antagonistic roles]] in the comics and ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsLegendOfEverfree Legend of Everfree]]'', plus his failure to actually curb his daughter's bullying, it's now open to question if his [[GoodParents portrayal here]] was CharacterizationMarchesOn or he [[PragmaticVillainy only objected to her bullying important clients]].
* AluminumChristmasTrees: While it is usually a carnival sideshow stunt and involves a queen bee in a box under the chin, bee bearding is actually done in real life and is generally safe for the bearder.
* CrossesTheLineTwice: The Cutie Mark Crusaders controlling a napping Granny Smith in an attempt to fool Cheerilee, especially when Scootaloo wakes her up by bumping her head against the ceiling.
* HarsherInHindsight: The scene where a bee lands on Apple Bloom's nose is hard to watch after "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E4OnYourMarks On Your Marks]]" revealed Apple Bloom is allergic to bees.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** The fact that the Granny Smith's family founded Ponyville makes the fact that Applebloom is mayor in [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/story-school-reunion.html this fanfic]] kind of funny in hindsight.
** Sweetie Belle also mentioned such an idea way back in "Call of the Cutie".
* NarmCharm: Granny Smith's eccentric ways, especially the singing to the water cans, initially seem a bunch of cringy {{Narm}}. However, the ending has the kids doing the same as part of their appreciation for Granny Smith and all she has done for Ponyville, and a just punishment for Diamond Tiara for insulting her.
* NightmareFuel: The Timber Wolves are surprisingly scary-looking.
* UnintentionalUncannyValley: While the Flash objects animated in this show tend to be seamless, the Timberwolves have a deliberately reduced rendering that makes them look more like leather shadow puppets come to life, lending an additional otherworldly air to them. FridgeBrilliance sets in if you know that some Eastern cultures ''did'' use shadow puppets as a media for retelling ancient tales.
