Thank you so much for a fabulous first reaction for Once Upon a Time!! I really enjoyed watching your reaction to this Pilot episode, and I'm really happy you're intrigued by the storylines. I truly hope you're excited to watch more. I really appreciate this reaction from you too. So... thank you again! This Pilot episode is amazing! I love both the storylines for our characters back in the Enchanted Forest, as well as for our characters in the present day... in Storybrooke. In the present, everyone is cursed without memories of who they truly are and who their loved ones are, and where they have all been frozen in time until now... now that Emma has arrived and has begun to change things and weaken the curse over everyone, simply by choosing to stay in town because she sensed something wasn't right with the woman raising her son as her own. Not only do people have no memories, but they also haven't aged a day, which is why Snow White and Emma are now about the same age... the same age like all fairytale characters were in the Enchanted Forest just before the curse swept them away to our world. As for the Evil Queen's happy ending... she cast this curse over the heroes for a reason yet to be revealed. She wants everyone to suffer, while she's happy in the knowledge that they are all separated from their loved ones and miserable. This is why she says that the world they're about to be transported to is so horrible. Not simply because our world itself is horrible. It's possible she has all of her memories intact from the her previous life in the Enchanted Forest, which is foreshadowed, or is implied when she stands in front of her mirror while holding the storybook. Regina is the town Mayor and has complete control over everyone because everyone's miserable and afraid of her. Afraid to defy and stand up to her. That is their curse, and her happiness. Now... I love Emma and the storyline with her being destined to be the Savior, and I love that she is Snow White's and Prince Charming's daughter. I also love Snow White, Prince Charming, Regina the Evil Queen, and of course Rumplestiltskin... otherwise known as Mr. Gold in Storybrooke. He's so creepy and brilliant! And Henry is adorable. I love seeing the rest of the characters shown so far in Storybrooke as well. One of my favorite scenes in this Pilot... I love the beginning scene where Prince Charming gives Snow White True Love's Kiss in order to wake her from the Evil Queen's poison from the apple. It's so beautiful and what a romantic setting as the snow is falling around them. And another of my favorite scenes... I love the curse coming and sweeping over the entire kingdom as the Evil Queen boasts to Snow White about how she won and that the only happy ending would be her own, until Snow proclaims that Emma will one day find them and defeat the curse and therefore the Evil Queen herself. That good always wins. What a phenomenal moment! And then... I also absolutely love the moment between Emma and Henry at the playground, when Henry assures Emma that he understands she had given him up in order to give him his best chance, like Snow White and Prince Charming did for her too. And the moment Emma tells Henry that she believes she had been abandoned by her parents, then adopted until she was three, only to wind up back in the foster homes... so sad. Emma has definitely had a tragic life and she doesn't believe in herself. This is just such a sad, yet powerful moment. :) And lastly... I absolutely love the chemistry between Charming and Snow White, which is fabulous, because the actors chosen to play them... Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas... are married in real life. They met on the set of the show and fell in love throughout the filming of season one, then married sometime during the filming of season three. And now they have two children together. Their chemistry is beautiful and their love story is very real. I absolutely love them. :) Your journey into this show has just begun and I can't wait for you to watch and react to more. I think you will absolutely continue to love Once Upon a Time. At least... I do hope you will. Thank you again! Until your next reaction...
