    I thought the Good Doctor was pretty bad. Kevin saves the world was better, but it has a terrible name, so that is against it.

    I think it is pretty unlikely that Tremaine set the curse. I think it is going to be someone else. Like Alice or Cinderella or even Henry or Rumpel.

    I also think it is ridiculous that they are still talking about Snow White holding a sword as if that is some big moment of female empowerment. Get a grip. They keep calling Cinderella 2 edgy and i don’t believe that is going to mean much at all. She will probably stand up to people, but still be standing next to the guy in a dress when it comes down to it. Snow held Charming’s sword. She never had a sword of her own. Literally, it’s the same with all the female characters on Ouat.

    It is still Vancouver.

    Well, breaking the curse might make them go back to the land that they don’t want to be in.

    Did they cut out a close up they did of the troll bridge and the bug there? That shot just didn’t seem right.

    Also, it seems like Alice has her memories and i am still going with the theory that she did the curse. She at least knows something about the curse. If she is somehow someone’s child, Rumpel’s or Emma’s, then there could be reasons why she would curse everyone back to the land without magic and out of speed time land.

    I think that was part of the reason as well. That is why i don’t believe Adam and Eddy that this was the plan. They were still trying to work things out with Jennifer Morrison, but they weren’t willing to make her a producer for whatever reason. I think some actors just go with the flow and don’t care about that stuff, but some need that consistency and backstory information for their acting process and what was happening wasn’t working for her.

    The problem being that i imagine the producers don’t want the actors to know what a mess they are in the writing process.

    There is just no one thinking about the big picture of the show.

    Jennifer Morrison was told that Bae was Henry’s father when they pitched the role to her well before they shot the pilot.

    But yeah, the whole Emma being the dark one and the arc really being about Hook being the dark one, none of the actors were told about that. That is why the way Emma behaves at the beginning of that arc has no relation to what happens at the end and is the reason that Hook never acts like he is the dark one, he just acts like his normal villain self.

    The writers don’t seem to know their own story and i think a big reason that the actors left the show is because of the way the producers change their mind about stuff at the last minute and just how inconsistent it makes the show. It must be horrible to try and act for the actors who think about their characters backstories and use that as a way to become their character. Really they did nothing with Emma’s original backstory either. In Season 1 it really seemed like she was abused and neglected and not fed as a child. They never showed any of that. They never showed her having a really bad family except for when she was a baby and she first arrived at that group home with Pinocchio, but we know that doesn’t last because Emma was adopted for three years as a baby.

    It is just a mess, in my opinion.

    The actors never know what is going on with their characters because the writers don’t know and the writers change their mind and do random stuff all the time.
