Colin O’Donohgue’s Hook dies in episode 13. Jorge Garcia (the giant) will be there too. He kills Hook. O’Donoghue became a series regular for the last 9 episodes of season 2 before ABC ordered 9 more episodes.

I agree with Toothfairy. Just because I don’t like a character doesn’t mean I want them dead. If you don’t like Hook, fine. If you don’t like Neal, fine. If you don’t like anybody else, fine. I know it’s just a character on a tv show, but yeeeeesh! Sorry, this is just my opinion, but I think the only one out there who anybody should be wishing dead is “The Dark One”, hopefully not meaning Rumpelstiltskin. That probably won’t happen for a long time (if, at all) though. It’s kind of like Lost In Space, or Star Trek Voyager. Once they’re not lost anymore, it’s show over.

Never said I wanted him dead. Just said it was depressing (to me) that he was a regular (because that means we’ll be seeing him lots and I don’t like him). That doesn’t mean dead.

Also, Hook will definately be redeemed. People who are saying Hook can’t be redeemed and will be killed instead, I have no idea how they came to that conclusion. It’s just so obvious that Hook wil let go of his revenge, for Emma. But he doesn’t need to change, because he’s Emma’s match, all he has to do is let go of his revenge, which has blinded him for years.

Could happen. I don’t see how this is obviously going to happen (i.e. I don’t see the obviousness in it), but it could – anything could happen. I sure hope this doesn’t. I don’t want Hook with Emma at all. Whether he’s redeemed or not is neither here nor there for me (I kind of like him bouncing around from side to side depending on who is offering what or what he ate for breakfast that day).

I’m personally not a “shipper” (not on this show anyways), mostly because I love absolutely everything Adam and Eddie have written for it so far and I have full trust that they will put the characters with the people they belong with – if they belong with anyone. I also don’t believe that fan outcry would stop them from killing a character they originally planned to kill (not saying they planned to kill Hook, just saying they could have, and I don’t think fans liking him will make them completely 180 their story).

I’m curious to know what “magic” Cora/Hook will retain from their journey to SB, and if it will be just as difficult for them to use as it is for Regina/Rump… until we kind of have an idea of this, I personally don’t really have any theories about what is going to happen when the show returns.

Not to be nasty or anything….just truthful:

OnceWatcher, another poster on this forum said something a while back (I had to search for it, and read the conversation to get familiar with it again). OW’s concern was that a lot of writers take their viewers for granted. Yes, the show is theirs. However….where would any show be without its viewers? Would viewers stop watching a program, if its writers tell the people who they serve, than they are worthless to them? Like it or not, there is a relationship between a show, and its viewers. What kind of a relationship is this? OW said that viewers are sometimes regarded as rag dolls. I don’t know about “rag dolls”, but I do think there is a point here. If fan outcry isn’t taken seriously, then why make decisions which are non-advantageous to a program’s success? Can these people see the forest, for the trees?

A lot of people may not remember a tv miniseries called “10th Kingdom” that aired in 2000. Scott Cohen, the actor who portrayed “Wolf” said that he still has an old worn-out pair of shoes in his closet that came from the days before he “made it” in Hollywood. His wife wanted for him to throw those away, but he said no. The reason: perspective. He wanted to remember his roots. He didn’t want to loose his humility.

I know this takes the flow of conversation off topic so maybe this debate needs to be opened up somewhere else, but I do believe this is something worth more discussion. Not just where Once Upon A Time is concerned, but about the overall health of the show/viewer relationship in general.

I remember that movie. Ironically, the characters were lost in Fairy Tale Land, and were looking to go home. That’s where Virginia (Kimberly Williams Paisley) met Wolf, and FTL is where Emma met Hook.

Being 100% about what’s on my mind, I can’t help but think whether some of the Hook hatred (not just here) might begin at squables between actors’ agents and networks because “their babies” have competition with a new guy (Colin O’Donoghue) who’s standing in their lime-light. I don’t mean just here, I mean in general. We’ll see.

1 Keep Colin O’Donoghue (Killian /Hook)
2 Romance for Emma and Neal
3 Romance for Red and Hook
4 More Captain Hook
5 We know about the police department. Where is Storybrooke’s fire department? Emma’s the Sherrif, so who is the Fire Cheif?
6 Neal is Rumpelstiltskin’s son
7 Neal is Peter Pan
8 Good questions in other responses about August. Where is he?
9 Cora is starting to grate on me. I think we should see less of her.
10 All of the people in Storybrooke get to come and go as they please without any curses to get in their way or destroy their memories

I voted. Emma and Captain Hook are ahead! 😀
