I feel like people just hate on any episode that doesn't have a lot of Auslly. The show's a comedy too, guys.

Spoilers in my thougths below:

The difference to me between S&S and CO&Q is the place Austin is at in his career. In S1, CO&Q had Austin potentially missing out on an opportunity he hadn't gotten yet--the chance to play for someone who could get him a gig because of an accident. In S&S, it's Austin facing a choice: choosing his music and his career or doing something a normal kid can do and knowing he could get hurt. This is a disney show, so I don't want to get too deep into it, but isn't it like the choices we all face in school? There literally aren't enough hours in the day to do everything, so we have to pick what dreams we follow and face the consequences of our actions. To me the only flaw of the episode is that their plan worked and Austin didn't have to face up to his choice (although he kind of does later on his own). It would be nice to see their big "I know what to do" moment/plan absolutely fail someday.
