Returning Show: Once Upon a Time

ONCE UPON A TIME Returns Sunday September 28th


This is Fairy Tale Land. It's filled with magic, monsters and all of the characters we all know from stories growing up. It's real, and so are the people in it. But unlike the "happily ever after" you may have heard about, their stories continued, and The Evil Queen cast a Dark Curse over the land....
This is Storybrooke. It's a quiet, little, New England town filled with people who go about their everyday lives with no idea who they really are. The Queen's Curse has trapped them here and placed her in near-complete control. They have no real memories and no real hope.
Once Upon A Time is, at its core, a story about hope.

Hook looks nice.
I just thought this bears repeating. :)

Pity about Jefferson. :(

Oh, I'm so not caught up on that one. Still somewhere in the middle of season two, to be honest. Damn, so much to watch and so little time.

I had to consult an episode guide to answer that. *g* I watched up until 218.

I'm definitely planning to watch, but I'm not sure I'll be able to see episodes as they air, so I don't know if I can participate in discussions here.

I love this show; mostly because I find the characters and relationships so interesting and fun. My favourites are Rumple, Emma, Regina (and I love the relationships between them best of all too), and Hook; my favourite episode, is probably Desperate Souls.

About the new season:
[Spoiler:I'm a bit cautious because I don't care about Frozen (one way or another), but on the whole I'm optimistic]

This is one of the shows I'm most looking forward to, tbh.

Favorite Characters: REGINA ♥, Mulan, Emma, Robin, Aurora, Tink, Zelena and [Spoiler: Will Scarlet, since he'll be a regular this year. I also imagine I'll love Elsa, Anna and whoever Elizabeth Mitchell si playing :D]


Favorite Episodes: I marathoned the first two seasons so those episodes kind of blurred together for me. But I loved any/all Regina-centric episodes. As for season 3, I forget the episode names but I LOVED: 3x03, 3x11, 3x13, 3x19 and 3x20

YAY! 4x01 spoilery talk

[ETA: It just occured to me that this may not be the place to talk about the show as new episodes air every Sunday? Where do we talk about the latest episodes?]

I feel so bad for Sidney. lol When Regina put him back into the mirror, poor chap.

I'm so torn about the Regina/Robin/Marian triangle. Part of me is hoping that the "happy ending" that may be written for Regina is Daniel coming back and for it all to go well -- not like last time when Daniel came back as a zombie-like tortured soul. Idk, I sort of lost my love for Regina/Robin over the summer... especially after Robin's monologue when he came to Regina's mansion. Unless Marian dies again, is shown to be evil, or something else rather absolute happens with her, I don't really see him leaving Marian for Regina, true love or not. And if the premise is to change the past, rewrite the book, etc, then it'd be so lovely if Daniel returned. And I'd be more interested in a Daniel/Regina/Robin triangle than Regina/Robin/Marian!

I loved the Netflix bit with Emma and Hook! I wish there had been a scene with Emma and Hook actually watching Netflix and cuddling. Everything about their scene was so adorable, it'd be awesome if they wound up being a fluffy couple.

I don't really care for the Frozen scenes because the movie bored me (I'm guessing I'm one of the few who was bored by it), but I'm excited for Storybrooke to get snowier. :3

Overall, a very nice premier. Looking forward to the season. I loved all of Grumpy's scenes. There was very little of Snow and Charming, though. Felt kinda strange not seeing them! haha
