What are your opinions on the show?

If you haven't seen it, give it a try! It gives you a whole new look on fairy tales.

So far, I love it!  It's quite interesting.

I might wake up early and go running. I also might wake up and win the lottery. The odds are about the same.

It's amazing so far. Some roles could have been given differently (as in hiring different people) but it is.... I didn't think I would like it but I've fallen in love. :)

I adore Snow White. She's a b!tch but she's sweet at the same time. >:)

I saw the commercial for this and I thought, "this is right up my alley!"

I've watched the first episode and think it's pretty good so far. Have yet to see the second episode since a snow storm in my area wiped out power for 6 flipping days lol. I really hope the show doesn't get too crazy like Lost, since I think the same people who made Lost are making Once Upon a Time.

I adore fairy tales and enjoy seeing what new things can be done with them. Romance and swords! Princes and princesses! *wistful sigh and fangirl squee* haha.

Funny thing is, in my English class, we're reading some of the Brother's Grimm stories. xD

that Prince Charming is not dead, but in a coma.  I think it's awfully fitting for him to be the one in the coma this time around.

YEAH! :D And it looks like from the trailer they aren't doing something cheesy about it like having him be woken up by her kiss.

In the original fairytale, Snow White actually wasn't awakened by a kiss, but she choked up the piece of apple.

But, in all seriousness, I am quite interested in:
Spoiler:
who Henry's real, biological father is. I'm also curious about whether or not the evil queen truly loves him as a son. I think it would make a great plot point if she does.

Speaking of Henry, is anyone curious of how how his name came to be Henry?
Spoiler:
Especially after the grave for the Evil Queen's father and Mr. Gold's questioning.

No. I think it's pretty obvious exactly how that came to be. :)
Spoiler:
I'm pretty sure the Queen KNOWS that she's the evil queen and that she knows who is who, but I think up until that point she was questioning who the blonde was. But by his "Move out of the way... Please." I think she figured it out. :3 But I think the Queen really does love him and that's why she named him Henry- after her father.

I agree with this^
Spoiler:
But I don't feel bad for the Queen at all. :| She killed her father just so she could be happy! D: And guess what? She isn't.

So, in theory, Mr. Gold and the and the mayor are the only  two that knows what's going on.

If so, I wonder who the sheriff is supposed to be, if he supposed to be anyone in the first place.

I'm pretty sure that's the case, yeah.

Dunno, I haven't figured him out yet.

Yes. :3

I think he may just be there to be the blonde's (keep forgetting her name) love interest because seriously, who would he be? He would have fallen for a baby! D: Or maybe he was a baby born by another princess at the same time...? ::) Perhaps Sleeping Beauty since she was already mentioned? XD

He may not even be a love interest- but judging from people already teasing him about having a crush on her and her awareness of it I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a canon romance thing. XD
