Just a heads up really. There's a sneak peak at this new US fantasy drama tonight at around 9pm before the Celeb BB final.

Series premieres in the spring. :D

    A lot is being made of this special sneak peak. Since it is supposed to be two minutes, what are the chances Channel 5 is just going to show the trailer -- which is a little over two minutes in length -- that has been on YouTube for the past eight months?:D

    Reading the recaps, haven't you "spoiled" things for yourself?:(

    Having watched every episode aired in the US so far, it's definitely something I'd recommend.

    So glad that we're getting a UK TV airing. I initially watched US Pace online, but stopped when I learned we were getting it over here. I'll just wait and enjoy it on the TV. :D

    That good, huh? A lot of love for this show out there. :)

    I'm going in "blind" having seen precisely none of it apart from a few clips, but I'm getting sucked in by all the hype now so I hope it's not a disappointment.

    This fansite will be useful nearer to the time, some good stuff on there: http://www.onceuponatimefans.co.uk/

    Seven seconds, that's not a good sign of coming soon, more coming next month.

    Hope I'm wrong though

    Saw the first teaser and it looks amazinG!!!

    It's based on fairy tales apparently it's gone down a storm in the US, WHICH is a positive sign so worth a watch.

    It's set in a small town in Maine whose inhabitants are fairy tale creatures and characters under a curse.
    While the story is set in the present day each week there are flashbacks* to the characters lives in Fairy Tale Land.

    This was one of the U.S Trailers.

    * The Creators previously worked on Lost and there are a few nods to Lost such as the Numbers appearing.

    Yes, it's the highest rated show to premiere this season in the U.S. and is sure to be back next year. :)

    No confirmed date yet; though I suspect it will be before the end of this month. Terrestrial channels only lock their final schedules down two weeks before so "coming soon" ads will air in the two weeks before that. If you see what I mean :p
