I have to object to at least some of this.
The last third of season 7 had A Health of Information and Once Upon a Zeppelin. Two of the better episodes of the whole season.
The first part of the season had Fluttershy Leans In, Forever Filly, Honest Apple, Hard to Say Anything, Not Asking for Trouble, Triple Threat, which are generally considered the weakest episodes of the season, and Parental Glideance and Fame and Misfortune, which are two of the most controversial.
Season 7 seems to be held in such high regard because of Royal Problem, Discordant Harmony, and PErfect Pear. Those are the three pillars upon which the whole thing stands. But the same story editors that oversaw Perfect Pear also signed off on Honest Apple, one of Applejack’s absolute worst episodes when it comes to her characterization.
edit: For the record I like Season 7. I just don’t think it’s that much better than any other season.
