Once Upon A Time review – 2×01: ‘Broken’

October 1, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

After a maddeningly inconsistent first season, Once Upon A Time – a ratings surprise for ABC – returns for its second season after delivering a mostly satisfying season finale. Can the second season maintain the consistency?

Once Upon A Time recap – 1×22: ‘A Land Without Magic’

Now that is what I`m talking about. After complaining that the show has twiddled its narrative thumbs for the better part of its first season, Once Upon A Time takes a quantum leap forward and lays all of its cards on the table.

Once Upon A Time recap – 1×21: ‘An Apple Red As Blood’

With only one episode remaining until the season finale, Once Upon A Time needs to break out the big guns. That means that it’s time to take drastic action in order to get Emma (Jennifer Morrison) off the fence and into the game. So what better way than to put her child, Henry (Jared Gilmore) predictably in danger?

Once Upon A Time recap – 1×20: ‘The Stranger’

Well, now we know who August (Eion Bailey) is, although thanks to ABC’s promo department you likely figured that out sometime last week. As we close in on the season finale, are there any revelations left in the show?

Once Upon A Time recap – 1×16: ‘Heart of Darkness’

March 18, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Once Upon A Time continues its steady progression towards its first season finale as the matter of Kathryn’s disappearance takes center stage. Plus: one character begins to make headway in unraveling the curse (and no – it’s not Emma).

Once Upon A Time recap – 1×15: ‘Red-Handed’

March 11, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

After last week’s poorly timed side journey into yet another impossible love story, Once Upon a Time had some ground to make up. And while I would have preferred the show tackle Kathyrn’s disappearance head-on, ‘Red-Handed’ was a good character piece with a surprising take on a familiar story.
