Yeah….Bobby, Lana, & Sam clearly play really well off each other! I know everyone on Twitter is all shippy shippy with Mr Hyde & the Evil Queen, but for now…all I can see is like two bada– siblings going to wreak havoc on Storybrooke! It’s cute how they both just burst out cackling while Rumple’s trying to choke the life out of him! And as for Bobby’s haircut…hmm…I’ll get used to is soon. At least it does look nice!

Liked:
Opening scene! The CharmingMills trying to bribe Mr. Hyde, but the EQ beat them to him!
They remembered Cinderella had a girl instead of a boy!
It’s great to see Cinderella and Thomas back in town!
Rumple still being able to recognize a desperate soul.
Emma remembering wise words she said from Season 1!
WickedSisters Scene!
Evil Queen setting Henry straight on whose his mother! I know I shouldn’t have slightly cheered at what she was saying to Emma, but the darker Evil Regal in me couldn’t help it!
The Flashback Scenes were pretty good! Now if we can just find out what happened to Thomas after they escaped Rumple’s deal.
Snow & Charming planning to live normal lives instead of “defeating & repeating”
Rumple’s gift to Belle…
Ok…I’m starting to feel this Evil Queen & Mr. Hyde duo!
Mixed:
Grumpy in therapy and Dopey’s off to get his master’s! Ok then! But how did the Dwarves manage to free Dopey when they don’t have magic…you know what, I’ll grin and bare this answer only for the sake of peace of mind. I’ll just let it go.
So…they want Whale to be a science teacher and a doctor at the same time?!
Disliked:
It must be another Saturday because Henry hasn’t been to school in a while…just wood sword fighting in the middle of the day.
How dare Adam & Eddy try and pretend Anastasia did not exist! I can’t!

They don’t understand fandom or social media. They think that people talking about the show is good even if people find it extremely problematic. The majority of the actors are in their late 30s. I think there is a generational divide here.
I think it’s probably part generational, part ideological. This isn’t just about social media use, it’s about what people get upset about, and whether the show runners can actually take the criticism seriously without immediately getting defensive or dismissing the critique (which A&E can’t). It seems that A&E genuinely think that what they’re writing is “feminist” by virtue of having female protagonists, and giving them occasionally “sassy” dialogue lines. And get totally pissed off when their audience suggests that well, guys, maybe that’s not quite enough anymore.
Ding Ding Ding! This right here! God forbid if anyone ever calls out the great Adam and Eddy, or dare challenge their storytelling.
I think that they think that everyone on twitter is a screaming fifteen year old girl wearing a pink princess shirt and can therefore be dismissed.
This is the most accurate depiction I think anyone’s ever given about Adam & Eddy. They believe that they’re thriving off of twilight fan girls and neglect to see that there are actual adults watching the show. I’m not too sure on ratings wise, but I think people in their mid to late twenties and above are watching this series, and the declining ratings clearly show that the General Audience are displeased with the storytelling. Baiting and shoving ships down everyone’s throats is not the way to run a show, and it’s terribly sad when your main character is more associated with a ship than as their own person with their own story and journey.
Snow White and Charming are now simply referred to as Snowing, who Adam and Eddy believe they can just kill two birds with one stone by making every one of their storylines put together. Colin O’Donoghue better be glad for his above than average looks because that is what’s selling Captain Hook, who if separated from Emma Swan, what would be his purpose? That was the same situation with Robin Hood, who also due to poor and neglected storytelling, couldn’t stand on his own as a character without piggy banking along with Zelena right off of Regina.
They really don’t get it.
This is it exactly and it extends into every aspect of their show. Like, you mentioned Hook, but it goes to their continued PoC problem–they were getting creamed by fans and even some critics about their lack of PoC representation and how they treated their PoC characters. So what did they do? They cast a Latina Gwen and an African Merlin—and then proceeded to have Gwen raped and Merlin killed to further a white character’s plot. They think the simple act of casting two diverse characters is enough because they may hear the complaints, but they don’t listen, really and truly listen. Substitute PoC for LGBTQ or anyone not heterosexual, white, and young.
I just can’t believe they’re going to let Gwen stay magically roofied….I just can’t! And Merlin, he would’ve been a great asset to have in Storybrooke! How they treated their characters were beyond disturbing, and it is the reason why I’m so nervous for them to be toying with Aladdin and Jasmine!
Adam & Eddy are Indian givers with this show…they’ll toss a token towards the people who need it, play with it for an episode or two, ruin it, and take it away.
Speaking honestly, I’ve seen better written Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Episodes with my baby boy, than what we’ve seen on OUAT from Adam and Eddy. The first two episodes this season have been great so far, but I know a dip is coming sooner or later.

– The Evil Queen Photos –
Consider me slayed by the flawlessness!
I don’t know whether I’m more excited to see bird singing, hope keeping, broom sweeping Cinderella packing heat, or to see the great and terrible Evil Queen twirling on the docks like she’s on the Sound of Music! XD

I wonder if the Black Fairy is in the Land of Untold Stories….what if Blue banished her there?

If it turns out to be the Blue Fairy in the hood, I will laugh out loud with glee.
I’ll join you!
After six seasons of rooting for this crack theory…Shady Blue will finally become a reality for all of us! This is what we’re waiting for!!

I’m still inclined to think it’s EQ. 6×2 established that Regina/EQ is an excellent swordswoman. That is like laying a trail you intend you hike.
True, but the other option is that it’s a red herring because A and E love themselves a big ol’ Tweetable twist. Everything is pointing to the EQ: the swordfighting, the S1 feel, Emma realizing that Regina isn’t in her vision and voicing her concern that it’s the EQ under the hood. Which honestly is a big part of what’s making me believe it’s not the EQ. Why the hood? We know she’s our arc villain (at least one of them) so it’s not to stun the audience. The heroes know she’s in town now too so it wouldn’t be a shock to them either.
And let’s be honest…as much of a diva as the Evil Queen is, she wouldn’t be caught dead in that hooded cloak.
