Barbara Barnett wrote a critical review of the finale. She’s a BIG Rumple fan and she said this half a season ruined the character for her. Wow. She also had a critical review of Hook in the comments.
I’ve had some great Twitter chats with Barbara Barnett in the past and I think she’s pretty awesome. I loved this review because she hit the nail on the head about the big things wrong with the show. It’s becoming the “Hook & Emma show” and she’s totally not a fan of it either. I think the fact that she wasn’t that annoyed with CS at the start of S3B but is now calling the two trolls out on making this the CS show while at the expense of everyone else is VERY telling of how many people they’ve honked off. The comments were all pretty spot on too aside from a few tooly CS people who tried to defend their ship there (not very well either, LOL). She’s always been a huge supporter of this show and for her to be this annoyed with it tells me all I need to know about the finale.
That was brilliant. And I’m glad other people are now calling the writers out.
