    That article is true. When the show began, i tried to give the writers the benefit of the doubt, but it has become clear that they have no clue how problematic their story telling has become. They, for some reason, are just completely unaware of what is an abusive relationship, either that, or they honestly think that what they are writing is something that women want to see, when it is not.

    Adam behaves horribly on twitter, but part of me does feel just a very tiny bit sorry for him, in that, i think he actually knows that the show is bad. Eddie is completely unaware, and thinks he is god’s gift to writing, but Adam knows and just doesn’t know what to say. Adam is still a troll though. He lies about stuff, saying they are going to do it and/or saying just keep watching, wait and see, when they have no plan to do anything good or healthy with certain plot lines or relationships. I still think he knows that they made a monumental mistake when they killed off Bae and that now the show is just pretty much a cartoon.

    Actually, that is a disservice to cartoons. There are better cartoons then this show.

    I decided to take a stab at writing an alternate ending to the Camelot arc (which I never actually started writing down until well into the Hades arc, welp), which essentially kicks off right before the final scene of “Broken Heart.” In other words, in my version of “Swan Song,” Hook never summons the previous Dark Ones. While I haven’t published it yet, have a summary and script tease, because I insist on giving you one (yeah, it’s in screenplay format).

    DARK ONES DUEL TO THE DEATH! When Hook and Nimue plot to devastate the world, Emma must stop them. But the only possible way to do so is by killing him with Excalibur, reuniting the Darkness into one body. Meanwhile, Arthur plans to take over Storybrooke using an undead soldier — the legendary Black Knight. But, Guinevere and Lancelot secretly launch a revolution against him, rallying many of the people of Camelot to their cause.

    The whole idea is that it will serve as a launching point for something else. Which reminds me, I am so behind on Burning Bright and Zoe19Blink’s 5B alt-fics.

    Here is the link to my version of “Swan Song.”

    Neal makes a little cameo, courtesy of a flashback to Season 2!

    Turns out all the theories are wrong….

    Bill isn’t from the 1980’s. She’s from modern/current time. And Moffat “thinks” her real name is “Billie.” She will NOT be appearing in the Christmas special this year as the new companion.

    The cast made a video.

    Oh, I’m pretty sure they used the same soundbite from “The Blind Fortune-Teller.” Cameron probably wasn’t available, so they had to keep him blurred.

    So long as the show has worked something out with Cameron so that this tease comes to something meaningful in S3, that’s fine with me.

    Seriously. We do not want a repeat of the Lex Vader incident.

    Also, Gotham’s Facebook page gave us a closer look at Batclone:

    By the way, RG, you’re gonna hate me for this, but I think we might get some form of batsuit next year. I just have this feeling. Basically:

    Alfred (who by this point has given up): Alright, but you’re gonna need some type of armor! I’m sure Lucius can make something.

    Lucius: Umm, sure.

    Selina: Ooh, can mine be cat-themed!?

    Alfred: Now, hold on —

    Bruce: Ooh, I want mine to be bat-themed!

    Bruce and Selina: Yeah!

    Alfred: So, this is the new normal.

    Later:

    Selina sees a whip in Stately Wayne Manor. She picks it up.

    Bruce: Oh, Galavant left that, when he tried to kill me.

    Selina: I’m keeping it.

    Bruce: Whatevs. I’m more of a boomerang guy, myself.

    Evil!Bruce makes things confusing. But that sure explains the picture of David with the long hair. Clone? Batzarro? Long-lost, evil twin Thomas Wayne, Jr? Dr. Jekyll’s red serum? Something to do with that gas? Another Clayface? Bruce Wayne from another Earth? Apparently, in the comics, Tommy Elliot gets plastic surgery to look like Bruce?

    Whaaaaaaa?

    Also, reminder: Tomorrow, the Joker’s identity is revealed in the comics.

    The new teaser trailer for Disney’s live-action Beauty & the Beast looks better than 4 seasons of Rumbelle combined (excluding season 1). I suppose there’s no beating a classic.

    But…

    I want more!

    I noticed you have Lily’s birthday as February 19th, but I think they stated that she was six months older than Emma, placing her birthday in late April.

    CaptainFloor and Regina’s spoon/Belle’s teacup are really the TL ships on this show

    You mean Chip? I’m not so sure how Mrs. Potts feels about Regina’s spoon…

    Anyhoo, I decided to take a stab at writing an alternate ending to the Camelot arc (which I never actually started writing down until well into the Hades arc, welp), which essentially kicks off right before the final scene of “Broken Heart.” In other words, in my version of “Swan Song,” Hook never summons the previous Dark Ones.

    Just to remind you who Captain Guyliner’s TRUE love REALLY is:

    This first one is linked for one instance of language. But it uses music from The Lion King.

    These next three can be embedded though:
