I've been watching this show since the start and I keep telling myself that this really shouldn't work as well as it does. If you described it to someone who isn't watching it they'd probably laugh at how daft it sounds!

I was thinking that all the way through it. Excellent casting.

omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This show just keeps getting better and better!!!!

I loved learning more about why Regina is like she is and she is brilliantly evil - Lara Parrilla plays her fantastically

I hate it when the hour is up and I literally cannot wait until next week!!!!!

ditto, I have been watching since the start and tried to explain the story to my mum before I settling down to watch one sunday evening and she did actually laugh, raise an eyebrow and said "I think I will give that one a miss"

Incredible casting is right, most children playing main characters end up looking and acting nothing like them but she was unbelieveably good.

Nice to see Emma realising her 'Superpower' doesn't work. Loved her reply to Henry regarding his code book ' Sorry, I left the code book at home' lol

Katherine's return should make Regina's next move very interesting. Just speculating, but I think she'll blame Mr Gold and somehow use Belle as leverage to get him to remove Mary Margret.

Scary to think there's only 4 episodes remaining.

[Tourista]

At least Emma knows now that Sidney is a bad un, but when will she know about Gold's double/triple cross?....

I can honestly say that this show when I first heard about it, totally left me cold. As a 53 yr old, why on earth would I like a show based on ruddy fairy tales?.

Well, why?, because it is a brilliant piece of fun, a pantomime in a weekly form, and I do like a good panto......

I did try to explain the concept to my husband, when I first started watching it. He simply rolled his eyes and left me to it!

[egghead1]

The girl who played a young Snow White was uncanny in resembelance to Mary Margaret. Amazing casting.

Still not sure what Gold's plan is.

Agreed. Her well spokeness was quite uncanny for even a royal child, though.

And wow at Regina's Mum - I see where she got all her best magic[s] from, at least! Seeing Snow with her true love, no wonder she's been boiling inside all these years.

So she is alive - wth has she been?

Yeah. It's a lot like "Buffy" in that respect.

Going off at a tangent slight for a minute and thinking of other shows where children have played the younger version of the main cast reminds me of two shows. ST:TNG's "Rascals" and the SG1 episode with the younger O'Neill (2 L's ) but I forget the title. All the child actors in those eps really nailed it, I think.

I think she has been in the secret underground hospital with Belle but has somehow escaped OR Mr Gold helped her escape in order to expose Regina.....

The title was Fragile Balance (season 7). I think the teenage actors name was Michael Welch.

Agreed.

If she'd been running around the woods with amnesia or something all this time, I'd have expected her to look far grubbier!

So who does the heart in the box belong to?

Tis a good point - but then the Huntsman's heart was in a box in the vault all the time he was living in Storybrooke [until Regina killed him via crushing it].

it could belong to anyone - doesnt Regina have a whole room full of hearts in boxes?

Or it could be an animal heart, we only have Reginas word that it was Katherines heart

That's right. Turned up years later in "Joan Of Arcadia" IIRC

She did. Regina might have got someone to falisify the test results.
