Participant@hookian, thanks for letting me know about the podcast. I haven’t had a chance to give it a listen yet.
For the record, I wasn’t looking for anyone on the podcast to pander to CS feels but like Stelio mentioned, it would have been nice to get some balance.
@surayya, I have Windows 8 too and its giving me a headache. I was able to download the CS podcast on iTunes but it took several tries and some swearing.
RG, thank you thank you thank you!!! I can’t tell you how happy you’ve made me by deleting that thread. I’m sending you some cookies and rum and visions of Robert Carlyle dancing to “you sexy thing” (sorry, didn’t know how to download it on here for you)My daughters and I did a rewatch of the pilot last night. My girls, who are 11 and 9, were gushing over how small and cute Henry was. Its hard to believe that he’s a teenager now.

Participantwhat the heck just happened???? I apologize for the mess of the previous post. So much for trying to copy and paste from onenote. If you can read it, fine. If not, just ignore.:)

ParticipantOkay, so I just finished reading all of the new posts on the CSF thread. If I may make a suggestion to all of my CS shippers to avoid that thread in future and stick to their own ships.Until this “triangle” is conclusively over, there is only bound to be more mudslinging. And that’s what it’s come down to.I started lurking on this site over a year ago and really enjoyed the conversations about OUAT, but I feel that it’s not about that anymore.I’ve gone over to a few other sites, including FB, only to find the same thing happening there.Its either about Hook or Neal, as if they and Emma are the only three characters on this show. And ABC publicity isn’t helping matters by pitting one against the other. Heck, it helps ratings doesn’t it? I personally haven’t bothered to reply to any negative posts here because I just don’t need the stress in my life.
@surayya, I completely agree with your previous post. The podcast, although I do enjoy it, is very pro-SF, and dismissive of Hook as a character. I find that most of the other podcasts I listen to are the same, with the exception of the Captain Swan Podcast (kudos to whoever it was on this thread to recommended it–it’s very funny)Why all of the Neal love??>Is it because he’s Henry’s father or because we as a fandom all loved Bae?>I’m sorry, but I can’t reconcile the two characters of Neal and Bae .IMO, they are completely different entities. The Bae who fought for Wendy and her brothers would have fought for Emma. Neal didn’t. And TBH, I was completely okay with Neal as a suitor for Emma until he brought Tamara into the mix. (the “I need her” speech from season two -can’t remember the episode title- where Neal tells Emma that Tamara is coming to SB) .<>Everything else I dislike about the character snowballed from there.
I will be truly disappointed if Hook and Emma are not a “thing” by the end of the season. There’s been more character interaction and development between Hook and Emma from Tallahassee on, than with Neal and Emma in these two seasons. They’ve basically pounded us over the head with CS from their first meeting, and from what I’ve seen of the spoilers, it’s still happening. If A and E have no intention of having a Hook and Emma pairing, then what was the point of all this?

ParticipantWow! Impact! Looks like PP will successfully cast another dark curse! will he have to sacrifice the heart of the thing he loves most, and if so, whose heart? Felix’s? Rumple’s? I doubt he could even take the Dark One’s heart, so it’s probably Felix’s heart which PP requires to enact this new dark curse!
I don’t know, he’s pretty self-centred and frankly, incapable of loving anyone but himself. Do you think maybe he would sacrifice his own heart just to cast a dark curse?? He could always switch bodies again and still survive.

ParticipantI didn’t enjoy the Hook/Tink scene either. He looked drunk and miserable. However, it did give us some indication that their history on the island was more than just platonic. The only good outcome of all of that for me was Emma’s reaction to seeing Hook and Tink together. Now that was priceless!
As for Hooks conversation with Neal, that was certainly not what I expected. He was trying to do the right thing for Emma and Henry. It just fell kind of flat for me.
I’ll have to do a rewatch.

ParticipantWas that pic from the reading they did on Sunday night? Love it! I wonder how many plaid shirts Colin owns? That’s all I even see him in off screen.

ParticipantSorry, just venting. I don’t often get ticked by a post – after all everyone is entitled to their opinion and I respect everyone’s opinion, whether I agree with it or not. But a post finally rubbed me the wrong way – not on our CS ship, and I don’t want to point fingers at anyone. But I knew this would be a safe place to just vent and say, REALLY???????? REALLY, someone actually SAID that?????? I don’t think it was meant to be personally offensive but I am personally offended. That is all.
I hear you and I empathize. I’ve read some nasty things out there with regard to our ship and I’ve learned to just walk away. I’ve come to really appreciate this CS thread and all of the shipmates who contribute to it. Sail on!!

ParticipantHere’s something to think about as you sit around the Thanksgiving table today.

ParticipantA vision quest by Emma maybe? If she’s exploring her powers that may be one of them. I’m at a loss. I’ve seen so many excellent theories on this thread, that any one of them is a possibility. But I don’t discount A and E’s ability to pull a rabbit out of a hat and totally surprise us with something completely different. I’m considering laying off the spoiler threads for a while. If I have to wait 3 months for the episode to air, the speculation my just kill me.

ParticipantI agree motormouth. I don’t want to have to go back to a situation where all of the “redemption” progress made by Regina and Hook have been wiped out along with their memories. As much as I enjoy the flashbacks of the evil queen, Regina has come to far as a character to go back to what she was. But I have to say, my Hooky does look delish with that gaping shirt on the horse.
