Did they forget about last season already
This is how they’ve written every season since the end of 3A. They pick up the very last thread of the previous season (going home, Elsa in SB, Dark Swan) and then carry that thread through to the next mini arc but don’t bother returning to any other big questions/themes, ect. It’s the same reason why Emma is still an petulant 3 yr old who complains about her walls.
Exactly! The characters always do 360 every half season since season 3B. They just become templates and their personality is what the plot needs it to be. They don’t deal with consequences, they don’t learn from their mistakes and they don’t grow as characters.
The show ended in 311. if we think about it the main stories and relationships that motivated the show were resolved by that episode:
-The Dark Curse (Regina’s Curse, not Snow’s poor imitation or Hook’s WTF?!) was a main factor in season 1-3A and it was cast-broken-undone.
– Regina’s hatred towards Snow was resolved.
– Regina and Emma’s rivalry was resolved.
– Regina and Henry’s relationship, as well as Emma and Henry’s relationship, are not important anymore. Now it’s about Zelena-Robin-illegitimate child and Hook respectively.
– Snow and Charming are no longer important. Their relationship with Emma isn’t as well.
– Rumple search for Baelfire and their relationship!!! They don’t know what to do with Rumple anymore so they just make him a villain without any motivation being explained.

Bar FarerParticipantYou know what I realised the other night? The sorcerer’s house in 4A makes completely no sense because Merlin is the sorcerer and he never had a house in Storybrooke because he was a tree in Camelot for hundreds of years. Where did that house come from? Literally it’s only purpose was for RumBelle to have their honeymoon there, even though it was a completely random house. Does Belle make a habit of sneaking into other people’s houses to have sex with Rumple?
Yeah, I wrote in a different place:
Did they forget about last season already?!? What about the hat? What about the mansion? What about the door? What about all of this suddenly appearing in Storybrooke while Merlin was a tree and all his stuff were in a tower in Camelot anyway?!? What about all that character build up for a whole season just to kill him in the most ridiculous way?!?
And I also wrote:
They never explained how anything we saw in season 4 is connected to what we got in 5A and it even contradicts it. Why some of Merlin’s things like the hat, the door, the empty books moved to Storybrooke in the SECOND curse while in 5A we learn that Merlin was a tree the whole time and that all his stuff were in a tower in Camelot, which wasn’t affected by the curse. They did a good job building a mysterious character and they blew it with his revelation. This is what I’m talking about when I say Lazy because they never bothered themselves to sit down and connect everything, they just wrote stuff as they went. We need something to motivate Rumple to be evil again, Disney item preferable – a hat, we need to get rid of Frozen characters – a door, we need to have Emma tether the darkness to herself – a backstory of how Merlin fought The Darkness and tether it to a human soul, we need a cool exposition scene – Merlins warns Emma, we need the heroes to have some obstacle – Merlin stuck in a tree, we need Merlin’s backstory to parrallel Hook and Emma’s love story – a completely different backstory about him tethering The Dark One to a dagger. They didn’t think about it in advanced and map everything and said this piece is going to be revealed in x and that piece will be revealed in Y, they pretty much got to a point where they think the fans either don’t care(by what fans twitting them I can understand why) or that the fans would do the job of connecting everything by themselves and I don’t like being treated that way by the writers of a show that I really got invested in. I know they can do better because they already did it with Baelfire.

Bar FarerParticipantWill we see Tarzan in the near future?
HOROWITZ: Warner Bros. is releasing a movie. It looks pretty cool.There it is folks….our Season 6!!!!! #TheGorrillasAreComing Wanna bet 6×01 will be titled Into The Jungle
It actually confirmed that they won’t do Tarzan cause Warner Bros. has the rights, not Disney.

Bar FarerParticipantShapeshifting is possible in the Underworld, and Rose was the only Cora in that episode, even though they could have shot Barbara’s scene when she was shooting her Wonderland appearance.
They would have still needed to pay her for an extra episode.
"All your questions are pointless"
Bar FarerParticipantBelle is the exposition character. Every character has a job in the scene that usually goes like this:
Charming/Robin: Stupid Question.
Belle/character of the arc: exposition.
Rumple: Loophole.
Emma/Snow: optimism/pessimism.
Regina/Hook: Sass."All your questions are pointless"

They already did Buffy twice, doing it a third time would seem suspicious, they need to get ideas from somewhere else.
"All your questions are pointless"
Bar FarerParticipantIt’s just the same crap he pulls out from his butt everytime some fan calls out the problems of his show. If he really had had plans for them later on, he would have told the actors, which according to their response, don’t know anything about it. And isn’t it kind of like Mulan in season 3? How can he know that they would want or be available to come back?

December 7, 2015 at 4:16 pm in reply to: THR 12/7 – "Unfinished Business" in Underworld, Potential Rumbelle Baby #313840Bar FarerParticipantSo Guinevere is going to remain in her her mind controlled raped state until they’ll “have the time” to deal with it? When? Before or after the search of Lily’s father? Or before or after they explain the reason why Will is in Storybrooke?
Poor Guinevere. If people didn’t think they had a problem with POC before, well…"All your questions are pointless"
Bar FarerParticipantI agree. Merlin should have been revealed at the end of season 4 and season 5 should have been about the characters dealing with it.
"All your questions are pointless"
Bar FarerParticipant1. Dreamcatcher.
2. Swan Song.
3. The worst arc on the show, poorly executed and seems rewritten.
4. Nimue.
5. Emma – Nimue conflict in 507.
6. End scene of 501.
7. Hook is a second dark one – didn’t make any sense and took the focus from Emma.
8. 2 – It’s just pointless."All your questions are pointless"
