scenicbyway February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 I'm guessing everyone gets cursed again but Henry and baby Robin aren't included because they weren't born in the EF? But who cares? What's the point of the constant curses? Is it just to show there's no happily ever after? I'm guessing the reset means they might tell Adult Henry's life in flashback? So there's two Henrys? I would think the new focus would just mean that the mains are sideline and will shoot far fewer episodes. The thing is, if they curse them again and Hook and Emma disappear for 10 years without getting married, I won't be watching next season. Because DUMB 2 Link to comment
Curio February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 Quote EW can exclusively reveal that the upcoming hour will feature seven songs, including a big solo for Jennifer Morrison’s Emma Swan. Oh, you mean like these seven songs? 1. INT: GROUP HOME BEDROOM*2. EXT: CHARMING'S CASTLE BALCONY - FTL* ; INT: CHARMING'S BEDROOM*3. INT: EVIL QUEEN'S LAIR* ; INT: EQ'S LAIR/HALL OF MIRRORS*4.

INT: MAYOR'S OFFICE* ; EXT: GRANNY'S/MAIN STREET* Quote “We’ll all so excited about it,” Morrison tells EW. “It’s one of those things we’ve all thought about. Most of us have musical theater backgrounds or have had singing in our lives, or music in our lives, in some way. We’ve joked about it, thought about it. We’re all just listening to each other songs now trying to work out how the songs fit together and what the storyline is.” It's kind of crazy that A&E refuse to give the actors any information about the musical episode's plot even though the actors have to record their singing parts weeks in advance. Shouldn't they know their characters' motivations when they're singing? 2 Link to comment
Rumsy4 February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 1 hour ago, KingOfHearts said: Does anyone know why Adam keeps saying he's so excited about 6B? What's so different about it? He hasn't raved nearly as much about other arcs. I don't think it's just generic hype. There's probably something that's legitimately getting him giddy. IIRC, he said it was one of his favorites to write. "over-compensation" Lbr. The ratings aren't good, and abc is not all over them right now. 1 hour ago, Curio said: If this was meant to be the final season, it sure didn't feel like it. I refuse to believe two Reginas dominating the screen time was A&E's ultimate plan for the final season. This has more to do with A&E's inability to plan the season with enough foresight and their overconfidence in renewal, and very little to do with giving any sort of closure to these charatcers or fans. And FWIW, they probably do think two Reginas dominating the screen time is a wonderful way to wrap up the series. 3 Link to comment
Free February 18, 2017 Share February 18, 2017 3 hours ago, Curio said: There's no feasible way to wrap up the entire show this season in a satisfying way. They've already written the standalone (if there's an EQ vs Charming sing off, then this is for sure a standalone) musical episode apparently, and they've probably already started writing the finale. There's not much room to change things if the execs pull the plug suddenly. If this was meant to be the final season, it sure didn't feel like it. I refuse to believe two Reginas dominating the screen time was A&E's ultimate plan for the final season. There doesn't seem to be any plan whatsoever, they've been winging it for a while now and would most likely keep doing it until whenever it ends. 2 Link to comment

Kktjones February 18, 2017 Share February 18, 2017 So after an entire half season of two Reginas, this half looks like it's shaping up to be all about the Stiltskin family. I'm starting to think Gideon will have more screen time than most of the mains. I still have yet to see one spoiler that's getting me excited about the second half. These are possibly the last few episodes of the series and it just all sounds so uninteresting. 5 Link to comment

KAOS Agent February 18, 2017 Share February 18, 2017 I just don't understand how in what is definitely the final season of most of the main characters (Dungey straight up said S6 will tie a bow around the main story and S7 if it happens will be a reboot), this show is spending its back half focusing on Not!Robin, a character about whom in the past they could not care less, Gideon, a completely new character that no one cares about, and the Black Fairy, along with a very late season Zelena-centric. Add in a throwaway musical episode and I don't see how anyone's story is going to be done any justice. I guess I could be wrong and this might be the best half season ever, but this whole thing sounds like a hot mess. And a boring mess at that. 9 Link to comment

Emma's Savior shakes will be wrapped up, Regina's dual personality will be wrapped up, Aladdin and Jasmine will be wrapped up, and the Gideon/Belle/Rumple drama will be wrapped up. Those storylines can be wrapped up in a nice bow while still leaving room for A&E to give proper endings to the entire series in Season 7. Emma's happy ending and her relationship with Hook can be given proper closure in Season 7, Snow and Charming can be given proper closure, and hopefully a bunch of other dropped threads can be given proper closure (i.e., Mulan's search for love, Lily's dad, Emma finding out Regina killed Graham, whatever happened to Will, actually seeing more than 10 seconds of Hook and Emma living together, etc.) If the show resets and jumps forward a few years in Season 7, it can still give closure to those stories if the Season 6 finale doesn't get to them.

Well, I do hope that Rumbelle are gone by the end of this season. I am a beyond desapointed by Regina implications and hope it is not the final battle because really ..

KingOfHearts February 23, 2017 Share February 23, 2017 (edited) Quote Regina seeks out Robin, of course, after realizing that everyone in the Enchanted Forest seems to be better off without her. That's an interesting concept, especially considering the previous episode was about how different, and arguably worse off, Emma was in the Wish Realm, so it's a nice switch to see the benefits of the Wish Realm. I think Regina has probably come to understand the negative consequences of the choices she made as the Evil Queen during the many seasons she's spent redeeming herself, but to actually see how things would have been otherwise is another story. LOL. Even in the universe where Regina gets everything she has ever wanted, she's still the victim. I highly doubt it will have to do with her response to how much "better" things are without the Evil Queen. In the previous episode, she was laughing at how ridiculous it all was. I'm pretty sure these reviews are drawing from a single off-handed line she says to Robin. It's all going to be about Robin angst, and nothing about Evil Queen introspection. Quote Rumple and Belle have an incredibly difficult relationship and things are still contentious between them, but in this premiere they do find common ground in ways you wouldn’t expect. Common ground like, "OMG our son wants to kill us both"? Quote As a whole, I found the episode lacking; with so many characters pulled in different directions, things felt unfocused and generally somewhat tedious. There's a lot of standing around and talking about hope, fate, exposition, etc. and not a lot of heart. It's clear that big things are being set up for the rest of the season, but watching ground being laid doesn't make for a very interesting episode in and of itself. There are a few highlights, and the prospect of the rest of the season is intriguing, but it's not enough to save this from being one of the weaker premieres Once has turned out. This pretty much spells out how the show has been for a while. "There's a lot of standing around and talking about hope, fate, exposition, etc. and not a lot of heart." That sums it up perfectly. It's just the characters running around reacting to PLOT. Quote There's a substantial flashback that reveals some important origin information for Emma Swan. Apprentice: "Hello, Emma."Wee!Emma: "Wait... how do you know my name?"Apprentice: "I have something important to tell you - some day you're going to die. Alright, gotta go! Bye!" (I know it's actually the ugly duckling scene.) Quote The Wish Realm is pretty straight-forward, but we are left with some interesting things that are not explained. Are they purposeful or are they loopholes? Only time will tell! This is Once Upon a Time. They're loopholes. Quote “I believe in you, Emma.” Can you guess who says this? You said Snow? Wrong! It's Regina. Quote “War is coming to Storybrooke.” It's the promo voiceover- I mean Rumple. I feel like I've already watched the episode. Let's just move to the rest of 6B already. This break has been way too long for events that happen immediately after the finale. It's not going to flow at all because there's really nothing to start with. It's not a new arc, there was no major cliffhanger other than Robin+Gideon (and we know how that's going to play out), and it's just a continuation of the previous episode. They released it to the press early, so there's really no mystery to it. Also, this time we don't have a major franchise to look forward to, unlike every single arc since 3A. No one but OQ or Rumpbelle shippers have anything to be excited about. And even then, they're really not into it any more. The CS proposal is getting very little press, which makes no sense to me. A&E have taken the football away from Charlie Brown too many times to keep any shippers interested. Edited February 23, 2017 by KingOfHearts 3 Link to comment

Excellently put! I'm unable to conjure up an iota of interest or excitement for the remainder of the season. I don't trust the writers one bit. 5 Link to comment
RadioGirl27 February 23, 2017 Share February 23, 2017 (edited) From Natalie Abrams on Reddit, more confirmation that there is no CS "epic adventure" Quote From what I learned while on set, that “epic adventure” appears to still be on, but there’s definitely a twist that makes it unlike previously adventures (Snow and Emma in Enchanted Forest, Emma and Regina in Wish Realm) we’ve seen.
