I meant their relationship issues were easy to resolve. They don’t have any personal issues between them. So the constant back and forth and needless separation is kind of tedious. That’s was proven in “Broken.” When Charming found out about MM sleeping with Whale, the only thing we got were a few funny lines and boom, it was over. Wait…well, Charming did punch him in the face. 😆
Exactly, it was tedious that they kept breaking up Snow and Charming, and then keeping them apart this year too. I expect they’ll keep doing it too, and I somewhat understand because they can’t have their happy ending quite yet. However, it does become a little bit ridiculous and repetitive if they just keep trying to create ways to have them separated all the time.
However, Rumpel and Belle need to sort out their issues. And it’s going to take a long time. And quite frankly, it should.
Oh, I definitely agree with this too, but I just don’t want them to fall into the same pattern that Snow and Charming are in. I want Belle to really break it off with Rumple for awhile, not even any dates, until he finally gets his act together. I don’t them to constantly be in a pattern where he does something bad. She gets upset. They break up, but at the end she takes him back again. Then, the next episode their fine, but in the next episode, he does something bad again. She gets mad. They break up, etc. I’m just worried that they’re heading for that type of pattern. I understand that they’re going to have a lot of ups and downs, but I don’t want it their relationship to become boring and repetitive either.
That’s why I’ve been so disenchanted by Regina’s redemption arc. It’s way too fast and not at all believable. For people who have such deep-seeded issues like Rumpel and Regina, a few episodes aren’t going to cut.
Yes, I’m not really sure if Regina’s redemption is going to take because it happened so fast, and I don’t really think she cares all that much about anyone else except Henry. So I don’t think she’s really learned that much at all right now. I just worry because it seems like the show made the first half of the season about “poor” Regina, like how they tried to make it look like Charming was in the wrong for coming into her house to rescue Henry and the end where she was sad that she didn’t get an invite for dinner, that they actually will redeem her that quickly. I can just see it when Cora starts messing with her mind; then the big reveal happens and Cora is killed or banished, and then everyone feels guilty for not believing poor, little Regina who would never hurt anyone. 🙄
