Slurpeez: “Emma was humming “Someday My Prince Will Come” while picking flowers when suddenly Regina arrived dressed like a prince? How are we supposed to interpret that? Regina being dressed as a prince didn’t seem like just a coincidence.”
It was kind of funny, an interesting choice. This could be seen as – whats it called -“ship-bating” or just as a comment like this- “No, you dont need a Prince to show you who you are. You need good friends and family”-
Thats how I choose to interpret it, ’cause as ship-bate, its uninteresting..
[adrotate group="5"]Nonnie: “I could care squat for CAPTAIN NEMO… does Hook’s brother Liam return? He is part of the family.”
I actually care more for Nemo then I do LLiam 😉
So is the return date 5.th of March as Matt writes, or 26.th of March as the Tweet says?
I also think it was supposed to be Baelfire, not Hook, who was then meant to be resurrected (as the name Baelfire from Wheel of Time strongly suggests). Emma and Bae were strongly paralleled with Will and Anastasia (whose name means resurrection in Russian and Greek).
Oh wow! That makes so much sense, if it was always supposed to be Baelfire that became the Dark One- died and was then resurrected by Emma. Perhaps it was only because they couldnt get MRJ back that they went with it being Hook..I doubt it means *anything* but snakes are traditionally in many cultures a sign of renewal/rebirth, what with shedding the skin and all that.
Uuh! that would be a nice touch if they used the shedding of the skin thing in some way.. nice idea 🙂
1)What was your favorite episode of S6A? Runner up?
It was this last one “Wish You were here” episode 10. It was Brilliant!! imo one of the very best from all seasons. Reasons- My two favorite characters Regina/Evil Queen and Emma had lots of scenes which were all super brilliant, well written, well acted. Rumplestiltzkin was at his best. Henry god to be a KNIGHT. The Charming David screwed up the way he does it best. Also It was a great storytelling idea to let us see how things would be without the dark curse (even though this was a bit different, because it was a reality that sprung from Emma’s wish) The costumes were on point, really beautiful. I could go on with stuff that where great, but I will save it for the review of this ep.
My runner up is a tie between e2 “A bitter Draught” and e7 “Heartless” – Reasons- “A bitter Draught“ was where the first meeting between EQ and Regina happened and it blew me away. We all got to know a bit more about the entity of EQ. And it was the Monte Cristo story, which I enjoyed.. “Heartless” was a really good episode for the Charmings and the relationship between them- Regina and EQ. And I loved that the show was exploring the heart mythology more. Also it had such brilliant throw backs to season one. (actually, I think “Heartless” is just as good as my Fave, so I have two Faves 😉 …and e2 is the runner up)
2) What was your least favorite episode of S6A? Runner up?
Hmm if I have to choose one it might be e6 “Dark waters” Only because it didnt do much for the overall story. It centered on Hook and Henry’s relationship and that didn’t doo much for me.
I cant choose a runner up because Ive liked all the episodes
3) We had a lot of new characters crop up this year. Who was your favorite and who was your least favorite?
Definitely Mr Hyde is my fave. He was awesome, mysterious, Dark, but with a soft spot in his heart, sooo well acted- His and EQ scenes were sparkling with chemistry. He died way too soon.
Least favorite- HMMM Maybe Jafar just because he didn’t really do anything and we had so high hopes for him, but he might still come back and redeem himself..
4) What storyline fascinated you the most? And which one frustrated you the most?
To no surprise to anyone who has read my other comments- Im most fascinated by EVIL QUEEN and REGINA’s story… I feel like I will be repeating myself if I go into an explanation why.. Plus I have so much to say it takes up too much room 😉
Im frustrated by Belle and Rumple and their relationship. Im also frustrated by Aladdin and Jasmine’s story they felt so much like filler to me.
5) What do you hope to see more of in S6B?
Of what I know we WILL see- Im soooo exited to see a bit more of this world that was created by Emma’s wish- To see Robin (or is it Roland..-..) And how Regina deals with that situation.- Im exited about what will happen to Emma- The Charmings who, poor them, are still under the sleeping curse.
Of what I hope to see- I hope to see much more of the Evil Queen, I will never be ready for that character to not be on screen anymore, so please show- turn her back from snake to human form real fast. I hope for many more scenes between the sisters Regina and Zelena and for them to work out their differences. I hope to find out what happened to Charmings father. I hope to become more invested in the Rumple and Gideon storyline. And I agree with the people mentioning wanting to see more of the Charmings, they are core characters and should be given more storylines.
6) Final grade and thoughts on S6A?
I will give them a 8.5/10 or a B Im very happy with this season, but there is room for improvement.
Bonus question what would I change? OH wow! that calls for some more thinking, I might answer that one later.
Matt: “Also, as they established again that Regina and the EQ are one in the same, does it mean that the wish actually effected Regina as well/or instead? Could that be why Robin showed up?”
I was thinking about that too. It is an interesting idea (Only I think it wasnt Robin who we met in the AU, I think its going to turn out to be Roland,, and if so, I dont see how that fits in with it being because of Charmings wish) But if it really is Robin then it MUST be the wish- since he didnt age.
sierraleone: “So, if the EQ both loves RH, but realizes his death liberated her, what happens when that hurt is healed, or at least the grieving process completed? Even in just Regina? Is there a reason for EQ to exist after that?”
Good questions. I dont know if EQ loves Robin anymore, but as I see it, EQ is so undetached from her real feelings, she most definitely BELIEVES she doesnt love him anymore, she doesnt know what it means to love. Maybe if she was in proximity of him she would feel something for him.. When Regina is “healed” there is no need for Evil Queen, because she will be back inside Regina- its the only way she will truly be able to heal, imo.
theWatcher: The writing you put under the spoiler block, I hope that doesnt happen, but you never know…
I suspect we will be seeing quite a bit more of Alternate Rumple. Will he make his way to Storybrooke? How does he know of it’s existence?
I surely hope we will see lots of him. That he might come to Storybrook never crossed my mind… Why would he want too?
Yes I also think its grown up Roland.. Wouldnt he be the same age, or like a few years older then Emma?
What I am concerned about is the wish david made about EQ getting exactly what she deserves. I wonder how that’s going to play into what has happened. Is that what she deserved? To be turned into a snake? Or is there more? I’m guessing that wish is going to be important.
My thoughts exactly… the plot thickens, but in a good way this time 😉
