And, so it ends. When the episode is fresh it’s always hard to reflect back on the entire season, to try to connect the dots. So I’m not even going to try. In a week or two, I can look…

‘Once Upon A Time’: Robin Hood, Gentleman in Distress
The damsel in distress is a classic figure in literature, art, film, video games and television. If we look for a definition, we’ll find that the term usually refers to: a young woman in trouble (with the implication that the…
‘Once Upon A Time’ 5X21 Review “Last Rites”
I don’t even know how to feel. Do I feel happy? Do I feel sad? Do I feel disappointed? Do I feel hopeful? Is it possible to feel all the things at once, to be a mess of hopes and…
‘Once Upon A Time’ 5×20 Review “Firebird”
Well, what a rollercoaster. Or, wait, can it honestly be called a rollercoaster if you feel like you’ve been kicked down and you’re never, ever going to get up? It probably can’t. Bad comparison. This is more like one of…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 5×16 Review “Our Decay”
Well, that was …not at all what I expected. Or maybe it’s just that I had such low expectations of this episode to begin with. When you don’t expect much, anything you get seems like a wonderful gift. And, trust…
‘Once Upon A Time’ 5×15 Review “The Brothers Jones”
Wow. Okay. That was …wow. Painful is the word, I think? Yes, painful. And I don’t mean painful in the remote way in which you feel the pain of characters you love, even when they’re put in situations that could…
