Lets hope its not axed because ratings have fallen in the states for season 2.

It's not even on season 2 and it's still doing well in ratings even if they've dropped slightly. There's no way it won't be renewed for a 2nd season.

Did you mistakenly post in the wrong thread?

Hi. I run the fan site that somebody else put a link up for on this thread. Obviously, we have been covering the show at US pace, however we have opened a UK discussion thread on the forums for those who don't want to be spoiled and discuss the show at UK pace each week.

www.onceuponatimefans.co.uk

We have also forged close links with the cast and crew so have regular live discussions going on for those interested.

I've been there, I won't be going there again, the forum is a little shabby in my opinion, it looks very dated, for a new site. Sorry.

I've only seen the trailers for this on channel 5 and it looks good. Is it me or is Lorena from True Blood in it?

Dated was the look we wanted and the butterfly design ties in with US Promos. But I agree, the forum needs an overhaul. But over 3000 followers on twitter and 4000 on Facebook would disagree. They love the site.

That was Mariana Klaveno in TB. The Queen/Mayor in OUAT is Lana Parilla.

Read somewhere that that said season 2 but obviously they meant season 1.

It's the highest rated new show on American TV. It's ratings have been mostly in the 9 to 10m range on the back half. Not falling off just going back and forth. It's held onto over 80% of it's pilot numbers. That's the very definition of a well performing programme.

Yep. Not sure where you heard that but you were misinformed. This show is not under threat at all, ranked as "certain to be renewed" by the very reliable TV By The Numbers. See this link:

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2012/03/13/abc/124214/

Ratings dipped last weekend (as they did for a number of other scripted shows) but the show goes out at 8pm and it was the day the clocks went forward an hour, so it's believed to have been a victim of that. Even so, it still rated very well for ABC and won the night in the demo.

Great show, will be watching this when it comes out on Bluray as the picture quality on channel 5 is awful. Have told them so via FB.

Looking forwards to this one. This was the one that I was more excited for compared to Grimm (which I personally found very full)

I have seen the first 6 episodes and it is fab, only have freesat (which is where the picture issues relate - take a look in the freesat forum!) It used to be one of the best pictures on SD sat until they moved transponders and crammed everything but the kitchen sink onto the same one (when 5*/5usa joined freesat) - Freeview picture is much better from what I gather but only receivable with alot of effort and messing about.

Anyho, those that haven't seen it - you're in for a treat, and if you do like it, would highly recommend REVENGE. Just pure juicy!!!!

I watched the first 7 episodes at US Pace, but got behind and couldn't be bothered trying to catch up, so I'll be watching on the TV from episode 8 onwards. It's very good so far.

There's a pretty nice feature on the show in this week's new issue of TV & Satellite Week:

Lots of mentions of Lost, I hope it doesn't have too much in common with that show.
