Burrr it's cold in here there must be some Frozen in the Oncersphere

So it's been a while since I have done this and I might be a little rusty but here goes nothing! 

Let me start off with the thing that everyoncer and I mean EVERONCER is talking about... Elsa's arrival in Storybrook. 

I am both thrilled and a little dissaponted. I know what's you are thinking *GASP* you either love it or hate it but I'm on the fence. I am thrilled because this could be really good for the show and the storyline could have great potential and everyone needs a little ice in their lives! I am disappointed because this just seems a little to easy. What I mean is yeah ok the movie was a total hit but it's like they we kind of lazy and and just picked it because it just came out and it was a smooth way to incorporate it. And it also kind of feels like they are trying to bank on that success. Now that being said I am on the fence I  in no way being negative about the introduction of Frozen into the Once storyline, like I also said part of me thinks this is a brilliant idea. 

Now is Elsa going to be a good guy or a villain? 
My theory is a villain, because she was locked in a gold vase that she shattered with her icy powers. And she was in Rumples house, which to me means that she owed him a debt she couldn't pay so he locked her away as payment OR she was evil and was trying to distort him and now she is out and seeking revenge! That's my theory anyway! 

Ding Dong the Witch is dead!!! FINALLY!!! I love her story line I thought it was very imaginative and creative! But having said that I am glad she is gone! I don't think Rumple should have killed her I think that he should have just let her rot in jail without magic but at least she is gone and can't hurt anyone else.... Or can she?!?!?

Hook + Emma= YES YES YES FINALLY!!!  I ship them hard and I was so glad we finally got to see them Makeout! There is so much love and passion there and I cannot wait to see them play out their relationship. 

I loved the time travel in this episode and I really liked that Emma got to see a glimpse if her parents in the enchanted forest! 

Ok now that we are speaking of the time travel I was glad that Rumple drank that potion so he would forget! If not it would have spoiled the big moment when he finally found Bea. And now since we are talking about Bea let's move on to baby Neal. 

I think in the long run of the show this is going to cause some tension between Rumple and the Charmings because they obviously didn't ask permission from Rumple. I mean, did you see the look of disappointment and sadness on the poor man's face!!! Granted they didn't have to ask permission they could have named their son whatever they wanted to but they could have given him just the slightest bit of warning! 

And now we are on to the wedding. I for one loved it! The vows weren't original and heck Archie didn't even say you may now kiss the bride, but hey we are talking about the nuptials of a very unusual couple! Now as for Belle being in control of the fake dagger. I don't think he can keep that a secret much longer! Something is going to happen someone is going to piss him off and he is gunna wanna kill them. Belle will obviously try to stop him but since she has a fake dagger she won't be able to! Then they will most likely break things off! Rumple should really think thugs through before he goes through with anything at all!  

And since we are on the subject of couples let's move right into Regina! Poor Regina... 
Ok moving on... Only kidding! I think it was kind of crappy for her to lose Robin just as she was falling In love with him. She was just starting to love little Roland too and that's hear breaking because that would be another "son" she is losing. I thought Maid Marion was died from an illness and not from being killed by the queen? But nonetheless she is back and we will just have to wait and see what road Regina decides to take. Will it be the high road so that her light magic can grow and become stronger or will it be the low road, the path she just came from, the one paved with revenge, the hearts of the innocent, and pure unadulterated EVIL??? 

And that's my review on the season 3 finale! 

Hope you enjoyed it any questions, comments, or want to start a discussion leave in the space below and we will start chatting away! 

Thank you ~ Casey

Once Upon A Time - Renewed for fourth season

  1. It's official: season 4 is a go! Thank you all for watching! Hope to see ya Sunday for the finale and this fall for season 4!

Lightning Round 13: Once Upon a Time Bosses Answer Your Burning Questions


Jennifer Morrison, Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas

Will Emma get her powers back? Is Zelena gone for good?
With the Once Upon a Time finale upon us, TVGuide.com decided it's time for our 13th Lightning Round with the brain trust behind ABC's fairy-tale drama, executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis.

We grabbed your fan questions off Twitter and hit up Horowitz and Kitsis for a special finale edition of Lightning Round, in which the producers had the option to answer, "Yes," "No" or "Can't answer." Some of their answers, and possible non-answers, are pretty telling. Check them out below:

Will we ever find out why Zelena (Rebecca Mader) needed Regina's (Lana Parrilla) blood?
Edward Kitsis:
I believe it was to confirm it was her sister and to deal with the blood lock.
Adam Horowitz: That may be a case of something that we answered, but we didn't answer it clearly enough for people to get.

Will we see more of the missing year?
Kitsis:
No, we are done with the missing year at least for this year.

Will we see how Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) found Emma (Jennifer Morrison)?
Kitsis:
We will find out how Hook found Emma.
Horowitz: We have not forgotten that little tidbit. That area of the missing year is explored—
Kitsis: Without us flashing back to it.
Horowitz: It'll make more sense when you see the finale.

Will Emma get her powers back?
Horowitz:
Can't say.
Kitsis:
Oh boy, watch live!

Was Rumple's (Robert Carlyle) proposal to Belle (Emilie de Ravin) just a distraction?
Kitsis:
No.
Horowitz: It was genuine.

With Maurice (Eric Keenleyside) returning in the finale, will we learn any new information about Belle's mom?
Horowitz:
Not this year.

The lights flickered when Snow (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Charming's (Josh Dallas) new baby was born. Will that be explored?
Kitsis and Horowitz:
Perhaps.

Love the redemption arc, but is Regina totally off the hook for all the things she has done?
Horowitz:
No.
Kitsis: Of course not. Every day, we have to strive to be better people. Some days we give into weakness and sometimes we give into strength.

Will there be more death in the finale?
Kitsis: Yes, there will be death. It's just a matter of whether or not you'll care. It could be a major character or it could be Henchman No. 4, but death will be had.

Is there more to Dorothy (Matreya Scarrwener) than what we saw?
Kitsis and Horowitz:
Perhaps.

Will the silver slippers come back into play?
Kitsis:
Perhaps.

Can we expect more Robin Hood (Sean Maguire) next season?
Horowitz:
Can't say.

Will we see any new realms next season?
Kitsis:
Absolutely.

With Jared Gilmore quickly aging, will there be another time jump for next season?
Horowitz:
We have him in cryogenic freeze right now and we're just going to be waking him up for filming.
Kitsis: Jared is pretty much what his age is in real life on this show, so we haven't really stopped his growth.
Horowitz: We did a time jump of a year this year that got us into the ballpark of where he is.
Kitsis: Actually, Jared is 47. The first show he was on was Mary Tyler Moore, so he's a pro.

Will we see Henry and Roland (Raphael Alejandro) bonding?
Horowitz:
Not this year.
Kitsis: Oh! Actually, we might see some.

Will we see more of Sherwood Forest?
Kitsis:
We will not see more of Sherwood Forest this season.
Horowitz: But maybe down the line.

Is there a Charming and Robin Hood friendship in the cards?
Kitsis:
They seem like they're on good terms. They had that nice bonding in the Rapunzel episode. I can't see them not being friends.
Horowitz: I don't think we're doing a guys' night out episode any time soon.
Kitsis: I don't know if they're going to bro out.
Horowitz: But I think they get along OK.

Might we see the Knave (Michael Socha) in the finale?
Horowitz and Kitsis:
No.

Any chance Mulan (Jamie Chung) could return?
Horowitz:
Not this year, but yes in the future.

Is there a chance of seeing more of Rebecca Mader after this season?
Horowitz and Kitsis:
Yes.

Has anyone read the whole fairy-tale book and possibly knows the future?
Kitsis:
Wow, can't say.
