I caught OUAT by chance while I was flipping the channels on a bored Sunday. Prince Charming riding on a white horse caught my eye. So I put down the remote and watched a bit further. Riding up to Snow White’s coffin, I thought intriguing…why are they showing the ending to Snow White? Then Ginny pops out of the coffin. I thought Oooo I know her from Big Love (HBO) I love her!
So I kept on watching now that it’s gotten my attention then suddenly a few minutes in, it switches to modern day? What now? What happen? Why is there a little boy on the bus? Am I watching the same show? I’m intrigued now…
Few more minutes in I suddenly see Robert Carlyle in a creepy get up, acting crazy in a dungeon. I loved him from Stargate Universe (which at this point was recently cancelled, bummer) OK now you’ve gotten my interest.
I did watch it on and off again since the Pilot didn’t quite gauge my obsession yet. But after A Heart is a Lonely Hunter’s shocking ending. I was hooked.
And the rest is history…
