Once Upon a Time season 3 review

Dear “Once Upon a Time,” where have you been for most of this season? What we had tonight in “Going Home” may be one of the greatest episodes of the entire series, mostly because it largely took away some of the sappiness that we’ve seen on the show, and put us in a very different […]

It was only fitting that Sunday’s “Once Upon a Time” episode was entitled “The New Neverland,” since it was clear by the end of the hour that this was the endgame for Peter Pan while stuck in Storybrooke. Rather than trying to get back to his old island, he would try to claim the entire […]

Did you think that “Save Henry” was going to be the best episode of “Once Upon a Time” season 3? Going in, we had high hopes that it would be something great, but there was still some uncertainty after some episodes this year have turned out to be rather hit-or-miss. Well, we are thrilled to […]

“Once Upon a Time” has tried to hand off a series of “twists” over the course of the series, but the majority of them have not been particularly surprising. Take, for example, Neal being Baelfire, and him also being Rumpelstiltskin’s son. We saw these reveals coming a mile away, just as we predicted most of […]

Usually, we would not be so bold as to title a “Once Upon a Time” episode review with something as audacious as talking about a kiss; but, the show for whatever reason decided to spoil this kiss between Emma and Hook in just about every way imaginable before this episode even aired. Therefore, it is […]

Anytime that you have a Rumpelstiltskin-centered episode of “Once Upon a Time,” you generally know that you are going to be staring in the face of something special. Robert Carlyle is a fantastic actor, but he also brings something important to the show which is a touch of uncertainty. When you have other characters like […]

No, we are not talking about a mystery novel here. “Quite a Common Fairy” was the best episode of “Once Upon a Time” this season by a mile. Not only was there action and drama around every turn, but there were a pair of major shockers that we didn’t see coming, beginning with the news […]

Two episodes into “Once Upon a Time” season 3, and we can at least say now that the plan is a little bit clearer when it comes to our current Big Bad character in Peter Pan: He wants to keep Henry around Neverland. The twist? He wants to ensure that he does it in a […]
