ParticipantAre you happy with the way Robin’s journey ended?
In all honestly, no, I wouldn’t say that I was. I felt like it was an abrupt end; I didn’t feel the character had any development this year and wasn’t really written for. That was disappointing for people who liked Robin Hood and liked him and Regina together. But I’m a company man and when you’re an actor, you have to understand that our job is to serve the writing. I write myself and I understand how important it is to be true to what the writer’s vision is. In all honestly, I don’t feel that a character like Robin Hood got the development that he could have had. But I respect the way the guys want to run their show. You either have to be on board or not. I’m happy to serve the writers.
Just tell the truth Sean….that’s the best thing to do! Michael Socha had the same issues with Adam and Eddy, and the mere fact actors are coming forth voicing their true opinions now about this show and it’s runners should be a forewarning to anyone before they hitch onto this bandwagon.
As a writer, what do you hope happens next for Regina?
As a writer, you hope the Regina character stays good and stays a hero and doesn’t let this tragedy turn her back to a dark place. But as a viewer of the show, maybe Regina going dark and being evil again gives them their Evil Queen back — she’s an iconic character on the show and to be honest with you, I leave the speculation to the fans and the writing to the writers.
I get the oddest feeling that he has to say he hopes Regina stays good, but deep down, he really wants her to go postal on Storybrooke! That’s a wish flooding twitter right now, everyone wants the Evil Queen to set it off.
What’s next for you?
I’m taking some time off to be a dad. There’s a couple projects on the horizon I’m excited about. They’re very different options and trajectories. We’re talking about where it’s best for me to go. I have the luxury of time to make the choice and absorb everything that’s happened and reflect on how great the fans have been to me. I’m always going to be grateful to them for their passion and dedication.
Just do you and be happy Sean! Michael Raymond James left this crap too, and is on a roll! Follow his lead!

ParticipantTVLINE | Did Lana have a particular reaction to the news?
She was upset, and surprised, and shocked…. We have a great relationship and a great partnership, and we have good chemistry. It’s always sad, the end of a job but I remember finishing on [the ITV drama] Scott & Bailey and saying goodbye to the cast thinking, “I’m sad to be leaving this one,” but then I ended up on Once Upon a Time. It will be interesting to see what adventures are next.My heart hurts even more…

ParticipantSo yeah…that’s what Adam and Eddy gave Hoodie Fans & OQ Fans…false promises, lies, deception, heartache, and fake hope!
I feel so bad for Sean, I really do! He was so excited about this character that only got sidetracked, manipulated, and degraded…and this was Robin Hood! The Robin Hood! The King of Thieves! He was a world renown legend before he was ever considered a fairy tale, and they screwed him over! No real backstory, we’ll never know what that dark past was, we still don’t know why he thought Marian’s death was his fault, and his only son is now an orphan and even back in January, when they knew they were going to kill him, Adam and Eddy didn’t even have the decency to give him enough screen time or even give him more than one line every three episodes!
I wish Sean Maguire the best in his future endeavors for both him, his wife Tanya, and their son Flynn, and I look forward to following him on whatever next journey he’s about to embark on.

ParticipantHi. I apologize for the painful things I am about to say.
~ I had an interesting thought. When I first heard the spoilers about Robin’s death, and some hints about how it would happen, you know what it reminded me of? Something about the randomness, the pain for the sake of pain, the loss because of a magic so unnecessary, but so unavoidable. And the heroes so helpless to do anything about it. And all the lost potential of of all the happiness that could have been, <em class=”d4pbbc-italic”>should have been. Do you know what all that reminded me of??? <strong class=”d4pbbc-bold”>Sirius Black!!!
~ But now that I have actually seen it, and thought about it, I am thinking something rather different. Because, the way Robin dove in front of Regina to take that blast instead of her: now I am reminded of something else. I am thinking of <em class=”d4pbbc-italic”>when Lilly jumped in front of Harry to save him from the death curse!!!
Amiright??? So, now I am wondering if Robin’s act of sacrifice has created some new magic, all it’s own??? But sadly, no one on this writing staff is JK. Jane Espenson is the best they’ve got, but I’m afraid she’s not enough anymore.
~ Yeah, like I said, sorry.

As brilliant, and I do mean brilliant as this all sounds….I just don’t think Adam and Eddy are smart enough to come up with an epic storyline like that!

ParticipantSeriously, who’s gonna die so Belle’s baby can have a name?!
Probably Belle. *twitch*
It would put Rumple back as a single father, a chance to redo it and get it right the second time around in honor of his wife.
Now I’m even more depressed because I can see them actually doing this!!!!
And Season 7 would be another Dark Curse with sixteen years passed, starting with the new generation….the new Storybrooke Savior Neal Nolan caught in a love triangle between his step cousin Robyn Mills and good friend Isabelle Gold. You guys know Adam and Eddy would go there….

Participant2. Just like with Hook, they want us to believe Robin is truly gone before they bring him back in grand fashion.
I’m waiting on exit interviews. Apparently both TVLine and EW are supposed to interview Sean today, so I’m #hoping that sheds some light on if Sean/Robin is gone for good.
Hook didn’t get immediately buried….Robin is six feet under with a baby named after him….chances are very, very low of them bringing him back.
It’s especially sad because Regina will NEVER get that type of unconditional love again. Cora wanted Regina to be queen, Henry Sr. wanted Regina to not end up like her mother, Rumple wanted Regina to be a monster, Henry wanted Regina to be a hero….but Robin, all Robin Hood wanted was for Regina to just be Regina! He not once judged her for her past, he instantly saw the woman under the Evil Queen mask, he never threw her sins in her face, he never pressured her into giving up her magic or pressured her into staying a saintly hero, he loved and accepted her for who she was and wanted her to just be herself! Robin Hood was Regina’s soul mate, in every sense of the word!

ParticipantI think this resurrection would have gone over better if (1) S5a had unfolded very differently and (2) Robin Hood hadn’t died during the same episode (in a way which means Robin can probably never come back). So, it seems cold to a lot of fans who liked Regina and Robin together, or who, at the very least, think it’s not true to the message of hope and second chances or fair to orphan very young children (on a “family” show) while other non-parents get to be resurrected for reasons. Also, I get the feeling the writers almost like drama for drama’s sake, because they must be aware how upset Regina/Robin fans were going to be. Did they have to film Hook and Emma’s reunion in front of Robin’s casket before it was even buried? Sheesh! Talk about putting salt in the wound!
THIS!!! DEAR GOD, THIS!!!!

ParticipantTo say he wouldn’t bat an eye if the rest of them died is just silly, and quite frankly, some anti-hook nonsense.Well excuse the bitterness dear…it must be the resentment and rage talking.
While I do give credit to Hook’s….well…whatever form of help he was during this Underworld Arc, let’s also remember the reason why our heroes had to go to Hell in the first place. For future reasons, I do hope Hook has a couple of sessions with Archie….we need not him blowing another fuse and trying to send everyone to Hell again.
As for Robin Hood coming back…yeah…his soul is in a billion pieces floating around Storybrooke….and the baby was named after him, chances of Robin coming back are slim to none.
Right and maybe these actions shouldn’t outweigh all the bad. But that’s why I think it was so important to get into Zeus’ mind here. And we didn’t.
Okay, I can see Zeus’s point of view that although Hook’s actions didn’t contribute to killing Hades, his intentions were still pure and just. However, why should Hook be brought back and Robin left to die? What made Hook’s life more valuable than Hood’s? That is the ultimate question….I know we all have our theories, but I just want to hear Adam and Eddy’s explanation for this one.

ParticipantYou know it’s a sad day when #OutlawQueen & #SwanQueen literally cast aside their differences to shade the hell out of the fact, Adam and Eddy obliterated Robin Hood, but brought back Hook with Zeus’s blessing……
