    The Mid-Season finale was alright. I’m glad Galavan was only a half-Season villain, rather than the big bad for both halves. However, why do I get the feeling that all of these dead baddies being experimented on by Hugo Strange at Indian Hill will lead to them all returning later on this Season? Firefly, Galavan, possibly Jerome (if his body was taken there), and more. I admit I actually would be all for Jerome returning, since many of us felt killing him off so early on was a mistake.

    Dylan playing Neal wouldn’t work. Dylan playing Baelfire would. Although the writers probably wouldn’t give it the emotional gravity it deserves, Henry meeting his teenaged father who has no idea who Henry is would be a real heartwrenching moment. Henry could do the things with Baelfire that he never got to do with Neal, all the while it would be tinged with sadness. Henry could tell Baelfire about Neal, about how he was a good kind man who died a hero, and Baelfire would have no idea that Henry was actually talking about him.

    It could work, but chances are the writers would just mess it up.

    Dylan playing Neal could work…in flashbacks with Abby as Emma. Looking back at the MRJ/J-Mo flashbacks, it just awkward. We could even see the “Only You” scene. Plus it would shut up those anti-SF people who take the age given on Neal’s wanted poster as solid canon, rather than a production error (remember: Rory from Doctor Who had a similar error on his name badge in “The Eleventh Hour”).

    I wouldn’t mind seeing some Neverland stuff, too; we do know Robbie’s back. As for the amnesia plot, the interactions with Regina in the S4 finale should give an idea as to how well they could write this plot.

    Come to think of it, has Emilie even been spotted on set for 5B?

    Bites nails.

    I’m guessing this is for a Rumple, Milah and Young Baelfire flashback? Unless Neal reverted back into Young Baelfire in the Underworld, due to MRJ’s lack of availability. This would further indicate that this is a Rumple centric.

    I’m thinking it’s a flashback and/or it’s an apparition of young Bae who haunts Rumple. I doubt that the writers actually ressurect Neal only to de-age him again into Teenage Baelfire. (Then again, I’ve been burned by this show before). MRJ is soon to be available again now that Game of Silence finishes filming this week, but I’m still not expecting him to return after the way he was treated by the show.

    Fact: Robbie Kay went to BC to reprise his role as Pan after wrapping Heroes Reborn (same network as Game of Silence!), so anything is possible. Alternatively, any news regarding Abby Ross returning as teen Emma?

    Just discovered that from season 2 onwards, OUAT is classed as a “15” which means that anyone below that age isn’t supposed to watch it. This is a show that is on at 8pm when kids are still up. Why wasn’t it put on at a later time?

    Don’t even get me started on Gotham.

    Anyway, just contrast Emma and Hook as Dark Ones: Hook is full-on evil Dark One, while Emma is the “Dr. Doofenshmirtz” Dark One.

    I think I have this episode figured out:

    The octagon slab is supposed to be the “I am in 12.” thing, right?

    The Doctor ran around naked the first time. We were spared that sight.

    I’m guessing the rooms resetting were a setting by the Doctor the first time, too (in other words, he set up everything for each return). This is where the spades came from. The Doctor set them, so that he could keep using them.

    The Doctor was not cloned, he gave up his own matter to be reassembled by the transmat, except his skull. I think the transmit was able to pull additional matter out of the air the fill in the holes, or something.

    As for his memories, he remembered everything, but only vaguely; he had to be reminded. This is why he recognized the Veil.

    Some people think “The Hybrid is me.” refers to Ashildr, but the Doctor has never referred to her as “Me,” only “Ashildr.” The Doctor is the Hybrid. In the trailers, male pronouns are used. “The Woman” is listed on cast lists — the same identity given to the Doctor’s mother in “The End of Time” — and she even appears in the barn in the trailers. Different actress, but she was one of two female dissenters in “The End of Time,” so the Doctor’s father could have regenerated into a woman.

    Speaking of the trailers, one of them has a regeneration. The cast list lists a female General, in addition to the General from “The Day of the Doctor.” I think he is regenerating into a woman.

    As for “diner Clara?” Probably an echo.

    I think Belle was being controlled. In this episode she was all, “Later, bro!”, but at the end of 4A, her dumping Rumpel was played very differently.

    There is no way Merlin’s heart should work for Hook because there is no love there AT ALL. They’re not romantic, family or friends. If the writers expect us to just believe that Hook and Merlin became bosom buddies in the two days they knew each other, and that Hook “loves” Merlin more than Emma despite Hook’s entire storyline being about his “love” for Emma, then the writers are showing a severe lack of respect to their audience and more importantly the fans who have stuck with the show since day 1. Not only that but it completely throws the validity of CS into question, not that it wasn’t in question anyway.

    Which, again brings me back to my Nimue theory.

    Shamy are still broken up. God, get me to December.

    Yeah, it would probably be a bit more dramatic if we didn’t know what was happening in December.

    That aquarium scene, though!

    But, on the bright side, Andy and Haley!

    (there may or may not have been some Shamy news when I woke up this morning)

    I think I know what news you’re referring to.
