    If I were to be cynical, I’d say that A & E know full well that S1 was the most popular and make these statements to try and reel in disenchanted fans. In fact, I remember them saying that 5B was going to be more like S1! But if they’re not misrepresenting things then I’m cautiously optimistic.

    It’ll be nice to see everyone get back to S1 feel but…I’ll wait to see if that actually comes to fruition.

    Agreed. They said the same thing about 5B, which to their credit some of it did feel like S1 again, but still not quite there.

    I refuse to believe that Emma can’t go back to her season 1 self just because she’s with Hook now.  If the story isn’t all about Hook, then it is attainable.  They will at least try I’m sure.

    There’s two things at play here.

    1. Emma will never go back to her season 1 self because of how her walls have come down. She’s not alone, she’s surrounded by her family, she’s found a home etc etc. So in that respect, she will never be season 1 Emma again.

    2. Personality wise is more difficult to call. Theoretically it’s possible that Emma can go back to her confident, take no nonsense self that she was in season 1, but is it likely? No. You’re right in that, if the story isn’t all about Hook, in which case Emma should spend the least amount of screen time as possible with Hook, then she may begin to resemble her season 1 personality. The issue is when Hook and Emma are on screen together because of how CS is written. The writers’ best bet would be to break Hook and Emma up temporarily, let them develop as characters separately (Have Hook spend time with Charming so there is still that link plus Hook and Charming are at their best when they are in scenes alone together), then once Emma and Hook have become more solid in their character foundation have them interact and build up from there.

    All magic comes with a price!

    Yeah I just think Hook could spend time with Charming now.  The writer’s were just choosing not to.  They can always change that.  Hook doesn’t have to break up with Emma to make some of these things happen.  But you’re right, season 1 Emma was closed off and a non believer so we won’t ever get that.  But I am hoping for her feisty confident personality again.

    That and not using magic to solve problems. She’s a compelling character when she uses skills that people in the real world can relate to and respect.
