Jenna_BParticipant
Nothing new, probably been posted before, but a cute little recap of our favorite couple. Tried to copy the actual article but it was giving me problems.

[adrotate group="5"]Jenna_BParticipantSo far I’m liking what I’m hearing about 3b! For a while there, I was a little on the fence, between possible dropped storylines, spoilers-that-shall-not-be-named and my own ambivalence toward the Wizard of Oz story…but the interviews they’re giving have definitely gotten me looking forward to March 9th again.
“Home,” A&E…you said it yourself! Relax with the over-the-top stuff and let’s focus on our core characters!
Jenna_BParticipantAwesome, it looks like I have a very good theory and a meta to keep my brain busy this weekend! Can’t wait to read them! I might have something to post in a bit…I’m rolling Emma’s use of the word “good” in 3×11 and my suspicion that she knows Hook well enough to know that very word is the one he needs to not just give up hope but actively look for a way to find her…hmmm…a re-watch is in order.

Look, I know it’s annoying but we have to show some class and try and be patient the show will prove us right it has so far. Anybody spewing Hook hate will see it themselves in the show. Right now we just have to try and take a deep breath and keep attempting to be civil.
Let’s all remember this is a Pro-CS thread, not an anti-Anyone/Thing thread, whether it be a character or fan-group (and by extension, I guess, ‘hater’ group). We’ve all noted that this board may skew more toward one group than another but we gather here because it’s a moderate, welcoming site and though far from perfect, we work hard to keep our posts civil and considerate. Even when venting (again, RG – far from perfect right?! 🙂 )
I think the new plethora of spoilers and images, and the fact that we’re entering the home stretch has really brought out a lot of positivity in the thread and even in chat – there was some good debating going on when I was popping in and out at least. The ABC medianet and especially the lightning round answers have gotten me very excited about 3B! I think it’s going to be a good one – and I had some serious misgivings with this whole WW thing (not the biggest fan of Wizard of Oz, to be honest). And of course all the pretties of Hook don’t hurt! Sign. Swoon. Sigh.
Jenna_BParticipantI don’t think the character development is necessarily wiped out. It didn’t say exactly how close to the original curse this one is – it seemed from the press release they just don’t remember that year. So if they remember through 3×11, the development isn’t wiped out, it just picks up where it left off. I HOPE!
I’m guessing they know the curse is coming and collectively find a way to get at least one person out. Hook’s a good choice because he’s familiar with a number of realms and he’d be one of the most adept at finding Emma (yes, along with Neal and some others – as for why not Neal, I have yet to come up with a reason I’m happy with so I’ve given up speculating on that particular plot point!). I do not think he’s working for the WW or being duped – why on earth would he work for the WW? And no, I’m not buying “for Emma” because anyone with half a brain would know that’s NOT going to get you in Emma’s good graces. And it wipes out the above mentioned character development they had BETTER not just swept under that rug they like to hide dropped storylines!!
I’m guessing Emma’s TLK with Henry can’t break the curse – anyone doing their ‘research’ on the initial curse would certainly alter how it was originally broken.

It should be a place where everyone can meet and discuss any aspect of the show (or snow 🙂 ) they want, but it can get aggressive quickly.
What makes chat “strange” to me, is that it seems like sometimes people make grand assumptions there than in the threads – ex: If you’re CS you must hate Neal. However, if you pop in the CS thread, you quickly see that the vast majority of posters DON’T hate Neal – and have very nice things to say about him and others. I know I’ve asked people more than once to please take a look and see that it’s not an anti-Neal thread, it’s a pro-CS thread. And the same absolutely goes for the CF thread – I’ve seen many nice things about Hook said there as well; it’s not an anti-Hook thread, it’s a pro-CF thread! However in chat it seems to be a different story.
Or maybe it just seems like it gets aggressive in chat, because as others have said, sometimes people may merely be misunderstood when they’re not trying to be aggressive. I think sometimes just a little clarity – “are we all still good with the conversation?” might help. What aggravates me is that it’s RIGHT THERE. Sometimes I know I’m just not in the right mood to deal and just want to see my shippy goodness but you simply can’t avoid chat. I’m not good at all the web design stuff so I assume it’s a huge task to move it to it’s own page, though, so you can choose when you want to see it and when you don’t.
Jenna_BParticipantCheckmate Adam…
LOL- Adam, Adam, Adam…. you did dude How many times have they said “Emma would have suitors” …. then introduced Neal & Killian. *sigh* I HATE when they answer Qs like that- If you wont give a straight up answer- like S2 or S3 or whatever, just dont answer it! It’s not hard really :/
Haha @SK! Nice sassing the Master of Sass! And proving my belief that you can’t trust A&E as far as you could throw them! Love it.
Jenna_BParticipantSooo many things to be excited about today!
Please let that guy be Killy’s dad or BB or Killy’s dad & BB or something. Just yes. Must. Be. On. OUAT. So much pretty.
Ariel! Yay! Any day JoAnna’s on set is a good day.
Emma’s curls are coming back!!! (See pic of Emma & Hook on the docks, courtesy of VCF). That might make me happiest of all. At the very least it makes me hate whatever they’ve got her wearing now less.
Jenna_BParticipantHAHA @obisgirl – I know what posts you’re talking about, I made one of them lol!!!! EVIL HOOK GETTING DOUGHNUTS FOR EMMA – HE MUST BE POISONING THEM MUAHAHAHA @Jenna_B – they COULD just be Colin between takes but let’s keep our illusion
Haha, since I saw a big ol’ grump face one of him just after I posted, I’m going to go with the happy grinny ones are while filming and grumpy is simply a bad shot post-filming. Delusion is good for the soul!!

Maybe he’s hungry? Or maybe he’s just walking past on his way to someplace else.
Like to Modern fashions next door? Oh, PLEEEEASE could it be true?! 🙂
