It’s almost time to close the storybook on “Once Upon A Time,” the fairy tale drama branchild of “Lost” veterans Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz. The series will come to an end after seven seasons on ABC May 18, with the creators hoping to leave their audience a little more hopeful than how they found them.
“I think we were the first show to put a sword in Snow White’s hand, and we didn’t have damsels in distress. I hope our legacy is people realize that they can save themselves,” said Kitsis at an event celebrating the series Tuesday in Los Angeles, Calif.

[adrotate group="5"]They really need to stop talking about Snow holding a sword. She held her husband’s sword. That is not some sort of great moment of female empowerment. She never had her own sword. She carried one a few times, but it was rare she was part of the battles. Emma’s only sword was her father’s sword and Neal’s sword.
All of the women’s happy endings were just getting married and having babies. Most of them got married to men who did not remotely deserve them. I can’t believe they are still talking about the pilot of this show. They really need to get over themselves. There are shows twenty years older that did more to show complex and flawed and powerful women then this nonsense.
I love that scene in the pilot, but these guys need to grow up and join the 21st century.
