Once Upon A Time review – 2×09: ‘Queen Of Hearts’

December 3, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

If there’s one thing that Once Upon A Time knows how to do, it’s a (mid) season finale. Therefore, it should surprise no one that the show pulls out most of the stops as it heads into the Winter half of its second season.

After a brief Thanksgiving-week stint off, Once Upon A Time returns for a rare flashback-free outing that mixes sweet and saccharine.

Once Upon A Time review – 2×05: ‘The Doctor’

After an interesting start to the season, it appears that Once Upon A Time has settled back into the same disappointing formula it established around mid-season last year. You know it’s a bad sign when Emma (Jennifer Morrison) is one of the better parts of the episode.

Once Upon A Time review – 2×02: ‘We Are Both’

Magic may be back in Storybrooke, but that doesn’t mean that things have gotten any easier for its Maine residents. Thankfully Emma (Jennifer Morrison) sits most of the episode out, so the endeavour is nearly a completely thrilling success!

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.
