Pandering is fine in controlled doses. Things like Episode 100 were pure Panda Paradise, and it was fine as a celebration of the show and fandom.
And things like Amending Fences probably wouldn't exist otherwise. I'm sorry, but Moondancer is most assuredly NOT modeled after the target audience.
Trixies sudden prominence would simply NOT exist without the fandom falling in love with her, yet her relationship with Starlight has done much in the way of elevating Starlight's character after the last two minutes of the Season 5 finale.
And then there is background in-house joke. Those are fine.
It's when Episode 100 and Fame And Misfortune become the average where we have a problem.

Also, Ian Flynn. And most Transformers writers. Kinda puts the kiboosh on the idea that fans should never write canon in an official capacity.
