Couple of things to note: Rainbow Dash in particular seemed to be autotuned really obviously in the song, and I'm pretty sure it was in one of AJ's bits too. I wonder what's up with that, Ashleigh Ball having problems with her voice or something? I don't recall obvious autotune being used in the songs before, so it's kinda weird.
Also, Meghan McCarthy was the story editor for this episode, which doesn't make much sense. She was supposed to only have been there for the latter half because of Rainbow Rocks and Larson was appropriately enough the story editor in the last episode, but now we have the third episode of the season and she's already back?
Another production credits note: Jim Miller was director, not co-director for this episode. The show is really inconsistent about the director credit so it might be nothing, but it could also be an indication that he directed this episode (though then again, James Wootton was almost always credited as director, even when the episode was directed by Jayson Thiessen) by himself, instead of doing it with Thiessen.
Now that I think about it, is it possible that these small two things might've been because this episode was actually produced as a part of the latter half of the season, when Meghan McCarthy would've been free to do story editing, and Jayson Thiessen would've been busy supervising the animation for Rainbow Rocks with Ishi Rudell?
