I just completed my latest binge watching effort, and damn do does it feel great to be able to move on with my life again. But that aside, let's all take a moment to discuss "Once Upon A Time." It took me nine days, but finished the entire damn season and loved all of it. Granted, there are some plot holes and enough flashbacks and scene jumping to make "Lost" look pretty damn straightforward. Nevermind the producers go out of their way to pay homage to "Lost" every chance they get.
Anyway, the show has been on for three years and I'm well aware of its popularity. Thus, I won't assume none of you are fans of the show. Let's all take a moment to discuss the series, talk about our favorite moments and discuss how much we all dislike Henry.
And, of course, don't hesitate to discuss your favorite characters. Note the above poll.
One more thing. Damn if I didn't start wondering who would win in a fight between Rumplestiltskin and Loki.

I love that the Genie was Gus on Breaking Bad, but my choices are Hook, Mulan and Robin Hood all three are bad asses in their own right

I have yet to see the second half of Season 3 (missed two episodes and didn't want to spoil things for myself), and I'll be waiting until the DVD comes out for that, but up to what I've seen so far I've really enjoyed it, and it's probably my favorite show currently on TV. Kind of odd that I couldn't get into Once...Wonderland at all.
I have mentioned in the past that I was really sick of how every single thing always had to tie in with Rumple in some way; even when something didn't seem like it concerned him, all you had to do was wait an episode or two and you realize 'Oh, he was behind that one too!'. I like him as a character, but the fact that everything always has to be about him makes me unable to vote for him. Really, there's too many characters I love, but if I'm forced to limit myself to three, it would probably be Regina, Ruby and Grumpy, but again, I'm about twelve episodes behind, so my opinion on that might change once I've caught up.
Also, I shamelessly ship SwanQueen.

Netflix only had the first 2 seasons. I liked it, but it had way too much Joker immunity(may not be the right term). There is NO reason the queen should not have been murdered repeatedly.
Plus the bad guys kill repeatedly, but the response when they are under the knife is always "No! There is good in them somewhere!"
The show personifies "Evil will always win because good is dumb."

Hulu has the current season. It definitely has its moments, but is far from perfect.
I voted for Capt. Hook, Ruby and Nealfire (as some fans call him). Ruby is a great character and I hated that she disappeared for a bit because the actress was doing another show. Luckily, it got cancelled and she'll be back more often.
And as for this year's season finale? Damn!

Ruby/Red is my favorite...those outfits at the beginning of the run helped. Plus she looks just like one of my friends. Yeah sucked that "Intelligence" kept her away from S3, but I marked out big time every time I saw her during the second half.
Lots of desirable women are on this show, actually...besides Meghan Ory, Ginnifer Goodwin is cute, Lana Parrilla is hot, and I liked Joanna Garcia's appearances as Ariel.
Autograph count: Ginnifer and Lana sent me signed photos in reply to fan mail.
Also, This >>>>>>> anything the Disney live-action dept. has been attempting (I am waiting for them to make a DLACU like the MCU, and reveal that Maleficent is responsible for the successes of every princess and hero ever)
Yeah, Henry proves to me that anyone who worked for Lost has awful luck in finding kid characters played by people who go through puberty instantly (see also: Walt). The Modern Family kids still look the ages they're portraying, well with Sarah Hyland she can't help it, sadly.
And Mulan/Aurora = were they or weren't they? (Maleficent invented homoeroticism in Sleeping Beauty's life!)
I know Robot Chicken isn't big on many FANners' favorites, but I liked the Disney Princess skits this week...and Ginnifer Goodwin was the voice of Snow I believe!!

FWIW, I watched OUAT in Wonderland. Wasn't impressed. Still I wouldn't mind seeing that world be integrated back into the main OUAT. Since the thing {Spoiler}{Spoiler} the Frozen girl came out of looked like a magic lamp, I was thinking Jafar was coming, and I love some Naveen Andrews.
