I had a very hard time only picking 5 and kept checking and unchecking and then rechecking boxes. It’s interesting, because there are certain episodes that were my favorite at one time, but maybe are and maybe aren’t anymore looking at them in view of all 6 seasons. Teased storylines that fell flat or never happened affect my opinions in retrospect. For example, I still love “Manhattan,” but knowing the whole “the boy will be your undoing” storyline was dropped makes it a little less of an awesome episode. So I’m torn between my feelings for episodes when they aired and for looking back on them now.
[adrotate group="5"]The Round 5 Poll is now closed!! There were 19 eligible voters this time, and the goodbyes are getting ever harder! The Bottom 12 episodes (due to ties) – each receiving 1 to 5 votes, gave us a purely evil backstory, the birth of Peter Pan, the first face-to-face meeting of Snowing, both “appearances” of the Queen of Hearts, and the Final Battle played out to its conclusion:
1×03 – Snow Falls
1×10 – 7:15 A.M.
1×17 – Hat Trick
2×01 – Broken
2×09 – Queen of Hearts
2×21 – Second Start to the Right
3×04 – Nasty Habits
3×08 – Think Lovely Thoughts
3×12 – New York City Serenade
3×22 – There’s No Place Like Home
4×18 – Sympathy for the De Vil
6×22 – The Final Battle Part 2From here on out, I will not be revealing the top episodes to keep things more of a surprise, but as always I will post a link to the full results below for anyone wanting to know more. If you do look there, please refrain from revealing anything not in this post, for the sake of those who don’t want to know.
Round 5 FULL Results: https://goo.gl/DX3o56
A few questions to consider and discuss below:
– What were the biggest surprises for you? What episode/s are you most disappointed to see go?
– Why do you think the episodes in the Bottom 12 were the episodes they were, and why do think the episodes remaining are what they are?
– Will these results change how you vote in the next round?
– What predictions do you have for the next round’s results?
– Other thoughts?
Round 6 is now Live and will be for the next 48 hours until Thursday, 7 PM Central!!! IMPORTANT: VOTE ONLY FOR YOUR TOP 5 FAVORITE EPISODES THIS TIME. The bottom 4 episodes will be eliminated giving us our Top 10!!! From then on out we will eliminate episodes one at a time so that each has a specific ranking in the Top 10. Happy voting – I know it’s getting really hard!!!!

I feel like we should should revisit some of the old episode threads from S1 – S3 with the knowledge we have now of what certain twists were, what certain things mean… Might be fun to see what we used to think and guess and see how close people came and how our feeling about certain episodes have changed since then.
I love that idea!
If there are no objections to ending the Round 5 Poll tonight as mentioned in my previous post, I will do that.
I wonder what Adam reaction to all this was. Obviously not a good since he deleted his twitter.
Oh do you think his deleting Twitter was a result of the Con? Were people tweeting him angry things about it, and he wasn’t handling it well?
How would people feel about ending the Round 5 Poll tomorrow – Tuesday – at 7 PM Central instead of Wednesday? We would go back to rounds lasting 48 hours here on out. I don’t want to rush people and I’m very much enjoying this, but 17 people have already voted in 1 day and I don’t want to unnecessarily drag things out.
rewatching can be great fun and I do recommend it to anyone who hasn’t done it in a while.
I’ve done whole and partial rewatches with several friends and it’s a ton of fun. You see things from a completely different perspective knowing things now that you didn’t then, plus I enjoy seeing people’s reactions to twists I’d forgotten were so good – especially in S1 – S3A.
Why was Zelena so powerful at birth when neither of her parents were even practicing magic at the time (cough should’ve been Rumple’s daughter cough).
Yes, that could have been easily explained if Jonathan had been a wizard or something.
Merlin was a very charismatic character and I think OUAT could have done SO much with him if they kept him around the same with Hades and Hyde.
Agree. Agree. Agree. Merlin was built up as this all-powerful good and then….he dies relatively easy.
Wow, Adam deleted his twitter. It is probably for the best. He just can’t help himself for some reason.
Very interesting. I assume we’ll still get episode titles through his Instagram? I agree it’s for the best. He really didn’t know how to handle fans well.
Secondly, all the tea Bobby spilled and all the shade he gave….I LOVE BOBBY!!!
Wow! Talk about candid! Is there video of him saying all this?
I am glad it is only ten because it would have been hard to pick fifteen of the ones left.
Oh man, it was really hard for me to only pick 10. It’s reminding me how many great episodes there really have been.
t is hard to see An Apple Red as Blood go.
Agreed. It does an incredibly job of setting up the S1 finale.
– What were the biggest surprises for you? What episode are you most disappointed to see go?
I am surprised and SUPER disappointed to see “The Stable Boy” go already. It gave us so much! – Lana’s amazing performance as young, kind, in love Regina, Bailee Madison’s scarily believable portrayal of young Snow, the introduction of Cora, the jail scene between Regina and Mary Margaret where she grabs her face and tells her she knows she’s innocent of Kathryn’s murder, but that she does deserve this, and of course finally seeing why Regina hated Snow. It’s definitely in my Top 10.
