‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×10 Review: “Wish You Were Here”

What ifs seem to be all the rage these days. Earlier this week Arrow took us to a dream world that was altogether too perfect. Today, Once Upon A Time attempted to do the same. Both shows sent a message,…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×09 Roundtable: “Changelings”

Oh, Belle. I just want to give you a hug. Not that a hug will help. Nothing will help at this point. There’s no comfort, not even in knowing you did the right thing. Because the Rumple we’ve seen the…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×09 Review: “Changlings”

“Sometimes you have to choose power over love,” Rumplestiltskin’s mother says in this episode (yes, HIS MOTHER), proving that a) the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and b) Belle made the right choice by giving up her son,…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×08 Roundtable: “I’ll Be Your Mirror”

So, Henry has grown up. That’s about the only thing that we learned from “I’ll Be Your Mirror.” That and Rumple’s an asshole, but I’m pretty sure we knew that. This is just like the 290472782372th confirmation. And yes, there’s…

Once Upon A Time: The End of Rumbelle

Funny, I keep thinking of Junot Diaz these days. He has a quote, from his book This is How You Lose Her that has stuck with me, through good times and bad times. It reads: ‘And that’s when I know…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×08 Review: “I’ll Be Your Mirror”

Love is weakness, Cora said once, a long time ago, but a show like this never forgets. And when I say it doesn’t forget, I mean it never loses an opportunity to prove that phrase wrong – again and again…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×07 Roundtable: “Heartless”

That was a twist …wasn’t it? Maybe I’d been lulled into a false sense of security. Maybe I was just too used to the Evil Queen never getting what she wanted. Either way, Once Upon A Time, six seasons in,…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×07 “Heartless” Review: When You Believe

There can be miracles when you believe. And yes, I just sang that at the top of my lungs. I’m a Disney girl, through and through. But hey, it fits. Belief is a very important thing. In fact, you could…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×06 Roundtable: “Dark Waters”

Family is what you make of it. Family is not just the people who share your blood, but the people you love, and who love you back. That was the message of an emotional episode of Once Upon A Time…

‘Once Upon A Time’ 6×06 Review: “Dark Waters”

Wow. Did that episode bring the unexpected feels or what? I mean, yes, we were promised Hook backstory. We weren’t promised tears, a family reunion, a Captain Cobra adventure, honesty and a realistic look at what a relationship between a…
