yet the character that has become overwhelming and claustrophobic to many viewers is Regina cause she’s literally been in almost every single scene of this season in some form and has over 3 hrs of screentime while other characters are nowhere near that level
You mean one of the main characters and fan favorites since the beginning of the show has tons of screentime? Hmmm? <del></del>There’s a huge difference between regina time on screen and hooks. Regina is actually doing something, having an arc, contributing to the story. Outside of emma, hook isnt adding anything to the story. He centers entirely around her. This is not about being anti-CS or anti-hook. The last time Hook was actually a major part of the story was when he was Dark One and i heavily enjoyed that. But a lot of us dont like constantly having to watch Hook because hea just not doing anything relevant. CS adventure is going to be rhe same spiel no matter what way it goes.

Steve Pearlman is doing location scouting for 615:

At least we know Regina and Robin is going to end and be no more. If we had the same assurance about the waste of time spent on Emma and Hook then it wouldn’t be so bad. Also, Emma being the main character and being overly centered on Hook because he has no connections to any of the other characters is a very big problem for the show.
Regina has connections to every character on the show, so when she has a lot of screen time it is shared with literally every main character. The same is not true of Hook.

Hook is just as much a fan fav as Regina, and that’s coming from somebody with intel that hates Hook no less.
He has an arc with Charming as well as likely more to do with Nemo and Liam as well as the CS adventure whatever that is.
Many characters have been shoved in the background this half because of the massive focus on Regina, even Emma has been shelved for her. Emma’s plot has been sitting on the backburner because of the Regina plot and it’s now finally coming back in the forefront in 6B.
Regina’s arc is horrible. Okay placing the blame game on her evil deeds cause of the EQ is stupid and not to mention hypocritical that she talks that way to Zelena. She must not recall what she did to the likes of Graham and Snow’s mother.
And I’m sorry but this arc with the EQ is probably the weakest of the show. It’s gone absolutely nowhere, it’s only led to nauseating scenes with Rumple that thankfully are over with and EQ acting like an over the top clown. She’s no longer the scary figure from the S1, she’s become very campy and cartoonish.
Many people don’t like seeing two Regina’s suck up all the screentime either.

CS has been a relationship on going for four years now, if you honestly think it’s been a waste of time spent on a 4 year relationship of development… I don’t know what’s the point for you. I also disagree with Hook’s connections. It’s clear that every member of Emma’s family has grown fond of him. Henry likes him, Charming said “he’s growing on him”, Snow just wants Emma happy, and she knows Hook makes her happy. He also is a great friend to Belle now, which is a heck of a development.

This is the biggest load of crock I’ve ever heard. If Regina shared her screentime with literally every other main character then all the other main characters on this show…Snow, Charming, Emma, Hook, Henry, etc they would have a decent amount of screentime.
Instead Regina is hovering over 3 hours while every other character has not even close to a hundred minutes. That does not at all indicate that Regina is sharing screentime with everyone, in fact it says the opposite.
In general, there’s clearly a very big ugly double standard in this fandom. If Hook was the one with three hours of screentime this season while everyone else was at the other levels the amount of bashing and hate flung at the writers would be consistent. But since it’s Regina, there’s not even a peep from the crowd. Do you know what that is called? It’s called, being a hypocrite.
Ok, this thread got ugly fast. I’m going to have to politely ask that everyone stop arguing about Hook vs Regina. It’s clear that not everyone is seeing eye to eye on this issue, and it’s going nowhere fast. It’s also not what this thread is for.
Anyway, in recent filming news, Lana filmed with Tony Perez (Henry Sr), so guess he’s back for 614’s flashback:
From what I heard just Lana and Tony Perez (Regina's dad) filmed today at Stanley Park #OUAT

Matt is right. I invite you over to the Captain Hook Discussion thread, Michael if you should need to see how others feel about Hook or more approrately the “Why is Hook Such A Divisive Character” thread. You are entitled to your view. But you cannot deny that Hook is a divisive character, in a way that Regina is not. You not liking her arc doesn’t take away that she is actually serving a purpose to move the story/season forward. But we can talk about that elsewhere.

Huh….. Tony Perez as in Regina’s dad??? Isn’t he off in heaven land?
Or is this her father from Fake!FTL? I’m guessing he’s alive because the curse was never casted? Interesting.
So RH is alive, Snowing is dead, and Regina’s father is also alive? I’m really betting EQ is going to decide to live in this world.
