Due to Sean Maguire’s departure from the show due to (beep) reasons that we all know consist of Adam & Eddy screwing up this show….I wouldn’t be surprised if they try to send Daniel (Noah Bean) back to life for PLOT, and would be able to kill two birds with one stone by bringing an obvious love interest in for Regina, and having someone able to give her TLK to break the curse in Season 6.
If this is the case, I will throw several things because not only is Sean Maguire a great person, but he played the legend Robin Hood who was terribly misused! And for them to kill him off and bring back the Stable Boy…I don’t know how I feel about this!
All of a sudden this sounds fairly close to happening….what if Regina visiting Daniel’s grave was foreshadowing???!!!!
I’d be annoyed if Daniel returned too for several reasons.
1. They’d dealt with the Regina/Daniel relationship when Daniel gave Regina his blessing and urged her to move on in season 2.
2. Regina visited Daniel’s grave in the UW. It was tipped over which meant he’d moved on to the good place.
3. To bring Daniel back and for Regina to suddenly get back with him would kind of invalidate OQ and make Robin seem like just a placeholder.
4. Bringing Daniel back diminishes the important role Robin has played in Regina’s life.
5. Whilst OQ may have not away been the most well-written of ships at times, for the ramifications of Robin’s death to be ignored just to pair Regina up with someone else is terrible writing, even for this show……..which is kind of what they already did in season 3 with SF so who knows, you’d think A&E would’ve learnt their lesson by now.
All magic comes with a price!
