Here’s a topic with Regina. Does her happy ending HAVE to include a love interest? Now, granted, the same could be said for Emma but since this is Regina’s thread and her love life is the one in question at present in the show…if Robin DOES choose to stick with Marian and Roland, is that a *bad* thing? I do think Regina deserves loves and happiness but there is something to be said about having the opportunity for it in the past, walking away from it (out of fear) and the consequences of that choice is not having Robin at all. So, while I do want Regina to have love, would Henry be enough?
Yes. Henry was never really affected by the curse. He’s still growing up and it’s like what Lana or Jennifer said in an interview, that Henry is still growing up and he’s going to find his own happiness and true love. And Regina will be alone. Also, I think since Cora deprived her of a romantic true love when she was younger, that she needs a second chance for a romantic true love.
[adrotate group="5"]Jack Coleman will reprise his role as Noah Bennett (AKA HRG) for Heroes Reborn, our sister site Deadline reports.
The 13-episode miniseries from Heroes creator Tim Kring will reconnect with the basic elements of the show’s first season — where ordinary people were waking up to the fact that they had extraordinary abilities.
Coleman — who has more recently appeared on Castle, Scandal and Burn Notice — recurred on the NBC series as the father of Hayden Panettiere’s super-powered cheerleader Claire, before being promoted to series regular midway through Season 1. Noah was also a former agent with the Company.
Heroes Reborn is slated to premiere Summer 2015.
This makes me very happy. I think I even said earlier in the thread, if they brought anyone back for the mini-series, HRG needed to be included. I’m so happy I got my wish.
I actually have the opposite opinion when it comes to Henry and Rumple. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Rumple take a more active role in Henry’s life. They are each other’s strongest connection to Neal. I can see Belle really emcouraging Rumple to do so. The problem is the mess Rumple made with the dagger and killomg Zelena…and if anything that might get in the way of family bonding depending on how they handle it.
I’d like to see that too. Rumple can be a very loving person whe he wants to be and family means a lot to him, so maybe he will put forth an effort next season to bond with Henry.
And that pesky Rumple was going to kill Henry thing…so it might take some time but I definitely can see the relationship moving forward
I can see how that might be a problem. Not only that, how Rumple acts on a whim he might be considered too dangerous to be around Henry. But hopefully, the Charmings have moved past that.
True RG but I think she’s matured past that kind of child-like behavior. I would be very sad and disappointed in her character if she reverted back-then again, we’ve also seen that true loves don’t handle loss well.

All good points guy 🙂 I’m waiting for that article or interview that states Regina and Elsa are kindred spirits. I never thought of it that way but it makes sense.
Nontheless, I hope that we’ll see a very strong reaction of her when she finds out that he lied to her, killed Zelena and then used her as an alibi. Whether she will be angry at him or doubt her own morals if she won’t be angry that he killed Zelena (that would be nice and come full circle with her dark side shown in Lacey), I don’t know, but in my opinion it’s very important for the recognition of Belle’s character that she doesn’t forgive him after 1 episode and everything is back to normal.
I agree. I think it would be very unrealistic if Belle forgave him after one episode. It would be bad writing and pretty much prove that Belle is a doormat for Rumple where really he can do anything (no matter the severity) and she’ll forgive him for it.
1) Has Regina truly let the “Evil Queen” go? And is it possible to ever do such a thing?
I feel like she has. Season three Regina is worlds away from season two and season one. Old Regina would not have accepted personal responsibility of Daniel’s death. Old Regina always blamed Snow. And she accepted that she was wrong about the curse too. Admitting those things were huge.
2) Has Regina demonstrated enough regret and remorse for the actions of the past? And does she need to?
I think she has, in Storybrooke and in the Enchanted Forest during the lost year. Take the casting of the curse part three in A Curious Thing. She wasn’t happy to see Charming die and even admitted worry that splitting Snow’s heart in half might kill her.
I think it’s important that she shows remorse towards people whom she thinks wronged her like Snow. Do I think it necessary for her to apologize to everyone? No. If she wanted to, she could summon them all to the town hall and make a grand announcement but that’s overkill.
3)Is Regina simply a victim of fate/Rumple’s machinations or did she have a hand in her own descent into darkness?
I think it’s both. Daniel would not have needed to die if Cora hadn’t removed her heart and made power a priority over love. If Daniel hadn’t died, she wouldn’t become the evil queen or have a vendetta against Snow. Rumple putting it into Regina’s head that anger was all she had and basically breaking her hope for a happy ending didn’t help either. He used mind game manipulation on her in the worst way.
We know why he manipulated her but it doesn’t make it right either.
Regina classifies herself as a hero at the end of S3B (at least for today). Does she deserve such a moniker? Is it possible that she’ll never truly be “a hero” (off shoot of this question, since I know it’ll come up but what does a “hero” even mean??)
I was not a fan of Regina in season one and didn’t really get or understand her until The Stable Boy. I could kind of relate to her. I love my mom but sometimes, she can be manipulative and meddle in my personal life in a way that I don’t like. So I was able to relate to young Regina in that way, minus the magic abuse.
I also did not believe that Regina could truly be redeemable after season two but season three proved me wrong in the way that she accepted responsibility for a lot of things and felt remorse.
I think Regina might be closer to being an anti-hero than a hero. I’d have to look up the definition to be sure. From what we know of her history, she started out good and due to tragic circumstances, became evil. But there were times that she wanted to be good again.
Charming and Snow to our knowledge, for the most part, have always had goodness inside of them but they’re even flawed to a degree.
I remember watching a story on 60 Minutes, addressing if good is born and not made. I think research showed that babies inherently from a young age have a perception of good and what is bad and choose good over bad behavior. I thought the psychology of that was fascinating.
How will Regina act in S4 based on her past and the lessons she’s learned over the course of 3 seasons?
I think despite Regina’s losses this season (Robin and Zelena) I think based on her recent character development, she’ll have a more mature reaction in season four. I think it would be horrible for the writers to have her revert back to season one Regina after she’s made so many strides as a character in general. Reverting would be the easy route, IMO, because it means she wouldn’t take responsibility for things she’s done.
So I hope the writers don’t go that route.
