** This episode also caused a rift between fans due to Babs Seed getting her cutie mark. She had only appeared twice in the show before, both in the third season, with defenders saying the time was right for her while opponents claim they should have explored her crusading in Manehattan more. Fans are also divided on how she got one with little fanfare with some fans saying it was just the episode's way of her getting one. Fans who weren't happy bring up Zipporwhill, a filly no one had ever seen before, getting her cuteceañera as a plot excuse in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E14FilliVanilli Filli Vanilli]]".

** After "Sleepless in Ponyville" and "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils", fans presumed Luna would be paying Apple Bloom a visit this season. She does here, and once it becomes obvious she is dreaming, Luna's arrival is likewise obvious 20 minutes before she actually appears.
** The Enterplay series 3 trading card for the Cutie Mark Crusaders, published before this first broadcast, which has Luna as the protector of their dreams, strongly hinting Apple Bloom would be getting her dream episode.

** Similarly, the fandom has named Apple Bloom's LivingShadow "Shadow Gloom" to go with (A) that its true form is just Apple Bloom's shadow, and (B) the episode's title.

Apple Bloom saw her brother, her HERO, berate her and even disown her. She knew it was just a nightmare, but the thought of her hero doing this to her in real life would more than likely shatter the poor filly completely.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Apple Bloom's nightmare of her family rejecting her due to not having an apple Cutie Mark is based on her fear of her family rejecting her. However, Applejack's and Big Mac's speech mannerisms are similar to their responses to the whole [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E23PonyvilleConfidential Gabby Gums incident]]. Could it be Apple Bloom's guilt about it reserfaceing?
