CaptainSwan listed in 21 Heartwarming TV Moments Guaranteed to Make You Happy-Cry. (Wrong gif for scene, though.)

 

Buzzfeed loves them some CS.

Yesterday on a flight, I was reading over the shoulder of the woman sitting next to me, and it appears that Jennifer Morrison was the model for the "Sizzling Summer Style" feature in the August issue of Good Housekeeping. Lots of cute pictures of her in summer clothes in a beachy setting.

[Serena]

Yes! The fansites have had the pics for a while, here they are if people wanna take a look.

EdR's full Q&A panel from Flordia Supercon.

[Shanna Marie]

Does anyone know if there's a significant difference between the content of the regular DVDs and the Blu Ray? The price gap is pretty huge, and I wasn't crazy about this season. I also can't think of any particularly gorgeous location shooting that simply must be in high definition. So if there isn't a critical feature that's only on Blu Ray, then I might just go with the regular DVDs.

[Joanh23]

there's 1 more audio commentary on the blu-Ray (El 18) and some more deleted scenes and I think that's it...

[Souris]

I was told the Blu-Ray exclusive audio commentary is Sympathy for the DeVil, with the writers.

[Shanna Marie]

I wonder which deleted scenes are added to the Blu Ray. If it's more Regina emoting, then it's not worth the 15 extra dollars. If it's real #ItHappenedOffscreen stuff, then I might consider. Really, I don't imagine ever watching the entire season straight through, but there's generally at least one scene per episode I like, and it's handy to have the DVDs as a reference for discussion.

[Serena]

I think there's a description of the deleted scenes floating around the Internet, and none of them sound interesting. I'm sure they'll make their way on the Internet sooner or later.

 

This is super cute. The OUAT cast is going to the Christina Perri concert this Sunday, and Christina is... um, a bit excited about meeting JMo.

[mjgchick]

Will she do the "We're not worthy." Bow like Wayne's world when she meets her...because I would.

Here's one breakdown of what's in the set:

http://www.laughingplace.com/w/blogs/alex-movie-blog/2015/08/18/once-upon-a-time-season-4-blu-ray-review/

 It doesn't tell what the deleted scenes are about though. You can find them on YT, I'm sure.

 

There is an interesting one where Henry goes to Mr. Gold to have him erase his memories and put back his fake ones, because he's mad at Regina and what's to forget her. LOL

[Serena]

I feel like we had some spoilers about that - maybe from Robert Carlyle? - and we had, like, a 2 month long discussion about what it meant and what memories he actually wanted erased, and then they decided to delete that scene. LOL

[Panopticon]

I believe they released that last fall when the episode aired. Cue the ongoing debate about what counts as canon:

Oh you mean the scene that would have given an actual purpose to Henry working at Gold's Shop? Why would anyone want that to be canon?

 

(It's not. But it's dumb that it was cut.)

[KAOS Agent]

Actually, I believe that Adam tweeted out that the deleted scenes released on GMA after the episode aired were considered canon.

[Camera One]

Yeah, Adam's tweet is here:

The Henry deleted scenes indicated the writers realized that they needed to follow up on Henry dealing with regaining his memories.  Since it was cut, that wasn't discernable from the show itself.  Of course, one scene was certainly not enough, but better than nothing, I guess.

[Dianthus]

I can hardly credit them with doing that to St. Regina. Imagine, not wanting any memories of the woman who'd been gaslighting you for years and who nearly destroyed the entire town, and everyone you loved. Sheesh!

[retrograde]

Don't think this has been posted -- all the deleted scenes. I like the Twinkie one.

[Camera One]

Tallies for # of appearances in deleted scenes

 

#1 Henry - 6 appearances

#2 Regina - 5 appearances

#3 Rumple - 4 appearances

#4 Snow and Belle tied - 3 appearances

A lovely pic of Colin and Sean to remind us that only a month is left until the season premiere.

Forget Outlaw Queen -- Outlaw Hook is where it's at!  ;-)

[RadioGirl27]

Once has six million followers on Facebook and they have celebrated it with this pic.

[HoodlumSheep]

Why??? Wish they would have had more of the cast in the pic.

[Curio]

They were probably the only actors on set when the Facebook page hit 6 million.

[HoodlumSheep]

I know, it would have just been nicer if more of the cast could have participated. Why did they have to try giving a thank-you right after it happened? Why couldn't they have waited like, half a day? Oh, well.

[orza]

Posting it during the business day gives the entertainment media outlets time to pick it up and report on it while there are still people working before heading off into the weekend. It's a business.

[RadioGirl27]

Lana and Jennifer were there, the rest weren't really needed. If the two actors on set would have been, I don't know, Sean and Rebecca, I bet they would have waited.

Season 4 is now available on Netflix.

[Souris]

Christina Perri dedicated "The Words" to Captain Swan at her concert in Vancouver tonight and thanked Colin for being in the video. Some lucky fans got a picture with Colin & JMo, who were there. (You can also see Emilie and Lana in the background.)

 

Also, JMo is still being attacked by the Giant Blob of Darkness.

 

Christina posted some pics on her Instagram. Colin brought her an orchid. Liam, Sinqua & Bex were also there.

Here's a video of The Words.

[HoodlumSheep]

Here's another graphic/gif? of Merida.

It lasts about 5 seconds longer than needed, and reminds me of certain websites for movies, etc. with the minimal movement and the background music. I like it though.

Makes me wonder if they hired a slightly better graphics person or if someone decided to up their game just a little bit.

Jennifer is selling a DS t-shirt with 100% of proceeds going to charity.

I'm torn between laughing out loud and also wanting to do very bad things to him. This...this is a weird sensation.

[HoodlumSheep]

That pic is amazing and hilarious. Lol.

A Once calendar for the month of September.

"Forgive Your Mother Day" on the 3rd cracks me up.

They got lazier at the end though, basically using the titles of the episodes in the last week.

Edited September 2, 2015 by HoodlumSheep

[Curio]

I approve of all the Emma on the calendar. Hopefully that's a good sign for the upcoming season.

[HoodlumSheep]

Here's a graphic of Camelot. It looks pretty.

Um, so are we supposed to watch the Season 5 premiere on the 27th, 28th, randomly skip the 29th and then again the 30th?

[HoodlumSheep]

Maybe those days are for those who missed watching it live or something. They got lazy at the end :P

[Stuffy]

I'm having the same issue. He's quite a talented man to get us to feel so many different things from one pic.

I would give anything to have been a fly on the wall when that was taken. What was the discussion? Whose idea?

I'm laughing because I don't for a second believe it's a serious picture. They were probably cracking themselves up because it's so ridiculous.

[daxx]

Colin is barely keeping a straight face. lol

http://fangirlish.com/ouat-ten-things-we-want-from-season5/

 

I specially love the ones for captainswan,captaincobra and the relationship between Snow and Emma.. The rest of her list have valid points.

 

 

 

The Emma/Snow relationship of Season One

I know it’ll be hard, what with the whole Dark Swan thing, but I miss the Mary Margaret/Emma relationship of the first season. It’s like they were closer before they knew they were mother and daughter. I know Emma has issues, and I know Snow isn’t always mother of the year, but these two love each other. Let them get close again. Let them confide in each other. They’re basically the same age, so there’s no need to play with stereotypes. They can be BFFs. It’s okay. We won’t mind.

Killian backstory, once and for all

Who are his parents? Where is he from? Who was the King that sent him and Liam on that journey to Neverland?  What adventures did he have in those 300 years at sea? Where did he learn how to waltz? We have many questions about Killian, and we’ve been waiting patiently for the answers for a couple of years. Of the main cast, he’s the one we know the least about. And, we’re curious souls. We like our pirate. We want more.

 

More Hook/Emma quiet moments.

It doesn’t seem like we’re going to get this anytime soon, but we really, really crave more of the quiet moments between these two, of the simple things. Of the waking up together (after coffee!!), of Emma making pancakes, of quiet dinners at Granny’s, hey, we’ll even take a Netflix movie night at this point. True love is not only made of the big moments, it’s also made of the little things. We already know these two are true love (what do you mean you don’t know, where have you been?), now we just want to see them enjoying it.

 

More Captain Cobra

Henry and Killian haven’t really had a chance to interact that much, at least not on screen. We know Hook took him sailing once, but Henry wasn’t exactly Henry then. We also had one mention of him taking Henry again, but, alas, we didn’t get to see that outing. In fact, we’ve seen precious little of the two together. What does Henry think of his mom’s boyfriend? Is Killian ready to be some sort of father-figure in Henry’s life? We really, really want to know. And with Emma gone and the people who love her banding together to get her back, what better time than this?

I pretty much agree with her whole list. Except I'd switch out a girlfriend for Henry and add in one or two regular friends. Why couldn't he hang out with some of the lost boys they rescued, or even Hansel and Gretel?

[Souris]

Hahaha, Zap2It wrote an article about the Hook picture.

I like this list too, but I have to disagree on the last point. Can't we just forget that the Zelena!baby ever happened? Also, no to teenage romances!
