[TV] Get to Work...and De-Ball Those Bands

Once Upon a Time is certainly a TV show... I think?

It has actresses?

And actors?

There's a story?

Stuff definitely happens.

The kid stinks.

Little Red Riding Hood is pretty trashy.

I fucking hate Mulan

I'm in the middle of season 2 right now.

Weep for me. Weep for me. Weep for me.

    This purgatory type place they keep going to because of the sleeping curse is dumb and Charming is dumb.

    Now that this thread is back.

    Okay what the shit is going on with cordelia. Stabbing wolfram and hard lady? The fuck?
    Was she the one who drugged angel's drink?

    Also I'm happy Gunn/Wesley/Fred/Lorne are getting to see Angelus now. They were way too eager to see him come back.
    I'll be interested to see if they completely shun him when he gets his soul back, or if they'll be closer yet more scared of him?

    remember how I said not to try and think too hard about season 4

    We are also midway through season 2

    It is... I mean, I'll give it this, it is a REALLY good hatewatch.

    I hate a lot of characters, but none so much as Emma, aka the dumbest, worst person on a show with literal trolls and witches.

    Also, I called a major plot twist as soon as they introduced it, not because it makes sense or was compelling, but because it's the sort of dumb move Once Upon A Time would pull

    S2 spoilers
    Of course her ex-husband is fucking Baelfire, and of course it was "just fate"

    Yeah, what keeps me going with Once is that every episode there's a chance that Rumpelstiltskin may just kill everyone.

    Also, I love seeing how they top their own ridiculous nonsense.

    That kid though.

    We're making our way through season two as well. I might dislike Aurora even more though.

    I will say that Henrys dad becomes my favorite charactor in whole show second to Rumple.

    Spoilers about Once Upon a Time related to Niel(Henrys dad/ not Emmas exhusband because they never married)
    when they killed off Balefire i pretty much gave up on the show.

    I got nothing for you now. Try again later.

    That scene is incredible in how awful it paints the protagonists

    like, it's "WWE babyface" levels of "these heroes are actually terrible people"

    the reason the protagonists are terrible is that they didn't just hang her on the spot

    "hi, i was literally hitler, can we be friends"

    no, hitler, we really can't.

    Yes. I made that comment when it happened. That's the old standby in movies and TV shows when they need to make someone younger.

    Dawn's being mopey over not being 'special'.

    Someone needs to bring Wesley back to buffy. Show her how badass a non-special person can be, especially now that he's become pretty badass.

    I take it you haven't finished that episode yet.

    The end of that episode is probably the best part of season 7, and that episode on a whole is pretty incredible.

    Every time I think
    "Is it even physically possible for connor to be a bigger dumbass?"
    He surprises me.

    It's so satisfying watching faith completely kick his ass.

    My favorite part about this, and it makes me giggle everytime i see this episode, is that im pretty sure at the very least they were dating by this point if not already married.

    oh wow I didn't even know they were married.

    They married in Oct 2003, and the episode aired in Feb


    I'm going to guess right now that this hasn't been actually cordelia at all this season.

    How the hell did connor survive in the demon world if he's so freaking easily manipulated.
    Pretty sure his distaste for magic's pushed him to try and do more damage in the series than actual magic.

    to be fair the only other human in the demon dimension was his "father" who manipulated him his whole life so...

    OUAT S2 spoilers
    I gave them three episodes after revealing Tamara had more going on under the surface to ruin that sense of intrigue and suspense

    They did it in two

    Congrats, OUAT

    Surely some of the demons there must have had higher brain function

    I'm not sure which exact episode you're on now, but I was pretty annoyed by Connor until right about this point. And then in "Inside Out" I started to feel pretty bad for him (partly because Kartheiser starts putting in some pretty great performances).
