Hmmm... Okay, turning Emma and Hook 1 into the Charmings works I guess. Explains them away enough. Guessing the curse will come later and confuse everyone, look forward to seeing how Rumple got there. But detaching and going to the new story is tricky.

They should've said the Charmings were expecting another baby too haha.

I'm sure it'll all become clear, but I'm generally confused about what exactly is going on. Want to see more about the Another Realm story.

Goodness though why did it not occur to them to try to not draw attention to themselves at the ballet?

Though, I'm not in love with the new characters. I like New Henry and Lucy the best. Lucy is already less annoying than child Henry. Cinderella and Lady Tremaine not so much, partly just the actresses I don't care for.

I miss the feel of Storybrooke. Not so much feeling Hyperion Heights. But I'll keep watching. I'm a completionist that way and need to know how it turns out. But I still feel like they should've kept the show in Storybrooke, and if they wanted to oust cast members, just have them move back to their magical realm for good. Though I really mostly feel Season 6 should've just been the end. Anyone know what the new cast contracts are? That could be telling.

I feel like this new show is basically recasting. They are trying to jump start careers of the actors. If you look into most of the cast they are failures of other tv shows.

Dania Ramirez (Heroes, Devious Maids)
Adelaide Kane (Teen Wolf, Reign)
Gabrielle Anwar - who is she? LOL all I know is that they put wayy too much make up on her, maybe they WANT to age her?
Andrew J. West - Who?

And the rest are 100% nobodies of the new cast

This is the worst episode of OUAT I have seen, and I've seen 'em all. The "another realm" schtick is already annoying. Gabrielle Anwar just cannot pull off the Victoria character, and literally every time that I see her on screen I think "Note to self: no plastic surgery, and keep going to the gym."

I never think anything like that when I see Lana Parilla. This is, basically, the AfterMash version of OUAT.

PS The ballet sucked ass. There was no room in the budget for a ballet teacher and a choreographer? Really??
