Members Juliajms Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 In its second week, Once Upon A Time held up well, falling only a tenth from last week's premiere to a 3.9 adults 18-49 rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 Great news for Once Upon a Time, I am crossing my fingers for Grimm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 I wonder if maybe both these shows have hit on a winning idea with the whole fairytale thing. I've seen a lot of people who really like Grimm posting on other boards. I think NBC hit on something without knowing it and put the only winning show they have on a bad night.

Members dragonflies Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 Emma and her parents being the same age is cause they're frozen in time, she's not. Tis why Henry ages and the others don't, he was born OUTSIDE of their kingdom Red Riding Hood is the girl at Granny's hotel that has the red streaks in her hair. Rumpelstiltskin, all I know about him is he wanted someone's first born cause they asked a favor of him, and Malefecent is from Sleeping Beauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 In the case of ABC and Once Upon A Time, I'm not that shocked by it's success. In fact, it seems like common sense, after all ABC is owned by Disney the KING of Fairy Tales and The Wonderful World of Disney, which aired many classic Disney films, aired on Sunday's night for DECADES. So I think part of the audience could be those that remember watching Disney favorites like Beauty & the Beast, Snow White, etc and this show reminds them of that.

Members alexisfan07 Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 He's Jiminy Cricket I loved the second episode. I love that they're doing character centric pieces like Lost did, too. The end was very suspenseful. Love Rump/Gold! He's a fantastic villain.

Members Daphne Posted October 31, 2011 Members Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks! I like Mr. Gold too. This show is great! I didn't even make that connection (Red Riding Hood and Granny)--will look out for them both next week. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted November 1, 2011 Members Share Posted November 1, 2011 This show is fantastic. Like Toups, I find Lana Parrilla quite attractive (meeeeow! lol), but mainly I'm just happy she appears to have a series that could last longer than one season. Her track record with shows has been abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reallyhateskateonlost Posted November 1, 2011 Members Share Posted November 1, 2011 The goblin/gnome shouldn't have laughed at the evil queen,....lol Loved how Sleeping Beauty got a mentioned. Hope we see her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I admit I did for a bit think how they could use the Disney version of many elements (Malificent for example), till I realized it's ABC/Disney of course. Still nto fully sold on the show but I hope she has a hit too--I always associate with her those flop Summer series Windfall (which wasn't great) and Swingtown (which I admit I loved lol). What kind of household did you grow up in? :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I agree. I actually think she is very pretty, girl next door looking as snow white should be. Snow White is not traditionally this stunning goddess. The short, pixie hair cut was jarring at first, as i last seen her in Something Borrowed, but its nice and i assume she did it for the show as to differentiate herself more between the fairy tale and the current times.

Administrator Toups Posted November 5, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted November 5, 2011 She's pretty for a normal type of girl (like in her romcoms) but for Snow White? I don't expect a Supermodel or anything. Can't think of another actress right now. I'll have to get back to you on that. He was born in the Kingdom. He just wasn't there when the curse happened. I love Rump/Gold too. My favorite scene from episode 2 was the Rump/Evil Queen scene where he tells her the heart must come from someone she loves most. My second favorite scene of the episode. Go Emma! And Boomtown! LOL I was never into fairytales when I was kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted November 7, 2011 Members Share Posted November 7, 2011 I really enjoyed this episode. I was not bored at all. James is very sexy in his fairytale get up. He and Snow have sizzling chemistry. I loved how they were looking at the each other in that final scene. Emma finally deciding not to be alone and going to her mother was poignant. The Queen is trying too hard which is why everything that she is doing will bring about the end of the cure. Next week's episode looks really good. It features Gold/Robert Carlyle which can only be a good thing. I suspect you will be thinking a long while on that one. If anyone is not good looking enough, it is the actor who plays James Charming. He is an attractive enough man, but he is pretty bland and isn't close to handsome.
