“We don’t want to spoil anything, but… wouldn’t it be weird if she met Emma? She and Emma might be an awkward meeting.” Just as fun is the prospect of long-dead Milah getting the 411 on the fantastically twisted family tree that branched off of her. Hints co-creator Adam Horowitz, “I love the idea of Milah learning just how she is connected to all our characters!”
Oh my goodness! I’ve been waiting for Emma to learn who Milha was for ages! Not only was Milha the mother of Neal but also the lover of Hook. I cannot wait for this seriously awkward encounter when Emma realizes that Hook was Neal’s de facto step-dad.

So Neal being back on a more permanent basis would give more substance for Henry, more complications with Emma, and a possible end for Rumple redemption. I disagree with most on this I guess. I think if done well, they could absolutely integrate Neal back into the show and it could be quite beautiful.
Believe me, I would love it if this scenario were to happen, and if handled well, it would be a wonderful thing to behold. I think many Neal fans would be thrilled, too, if that were what the return of Neal meant. However, I think there are those who are apprehensive about the probable return of Neal, thinking it will only be a one-off guest appearance by MRJ (in which case, it hurts more than it soothes people’s disappointment about the loss of Neal). Also, I think a lot of Neal fans lost too much trust in the writers after they killed off Neal in the first place to believe the writers could handle his reappearance well. The show got reset after Going Home, and it’d be hard to fix it now.

A lot of people have been hoping ABC would release the OUAT in WL soundtrack. Mark Isham has done the next best thing. You can now listen to OUAT In Wonderland Vol. 1 Suite on the homepage of his website (although you can’t listen to it one track at a time).

This title brings to mind bodies decaying. The other meaning it brings to mind is the show itself is decaying (though I doubt that is what the writers had in mind when they named it).

Two of Mark Isham’s songs from S3:
A True Sacrifice (from 3×15)
Because Neal made a true sacrifice.A Hero’s Funeral (from 3×16)
Because Neal was a real hero.

So, I told myself not to get myself worked up about the Mark Isham “spoiler” (since it could easily be explained away as a song title). But that plus the photo of Sean, Colin and MRJ does leave me curious. Yes, I’m aware it might just be the three actors catching up on old times, but it is interesting timing, considering the show’s setting. As for the Mark Isham spoiler being about 5×12 instead of 5×17, it could be foreshadowing (or not). I’m going to take it all with a huge grain of salt.
And because this is so clearly what was supposed to happen with Emma and Neal
ALL of THAT!

Is this for real?

I would’ve thought that if Neal’s Warning were a soundtrack from S3 that it would’ve appeared on Mark Isham’s website, where he just released a bunch of other songs from S3 and S4. I’m going to hold off on my judgement until I see how this all plays out, but I wouldn’t want Neal to be played by anyone other than MRJ. Yet, I want MRJ to be happy and fulfilled as an actor, and I don’t think a return to the show would do that for him.

This one hit me the hardest. :/

So Other Side of the Mirror podcast did a critical review of S5a, and they basically came to the same conclusions we did (and then some).
