Has anyone else seen this show? The second episode was much better then the pilot, but pilots always have to have so much detail to get the ball rolling.
I am waiting to learn just what prompted the Queen to cast this spell. It has to be more then Snow White being more pretty.

I saw the pilot, and didn't hate it. I actually liked it more than "Grimm", in fact. I've got it recording, letting it build up a few eps so I can go on a 3- or 4-episode mini-marathon. I've found that if a show can't grab me that way (three or four episodes without a break), then I'm just not into it.

Hello Kwicko:
A marathon sounds like a good idea. My impression so far is that they will focus on the back story as much as on the present. I have never read any of the classic fairy tales, only seen film adaptations and from what I am hearing on the HULU forum those were tamed down.
This Queen has a serious axe to grind. I will say no more since I don't think you have seen the second episode. It does appear that there is alot to learn about the characters before the spell, so flashbacks will abound.

I think the flashbacks will be more interesting than the action in Storybrooke, since it seems the back story will be different than most people expect. The third episode aired last night, and Snow White's meeting with the prince was anything but love at first sight. I can't say I'll continue with the show for too long, but so far it is entertaining enough on a night I rarely watch anything else.

Is it a mini-series? I saw the pilot and have the other episodes recorded, but I can't see where this show is going. It seems like something they can't just drag out season after season. I mean with the flashback mentality eventually they have to run out of things to flashback to with out going farther and farther back.
And snow white prettier than the witch? Pssh snow white isn't what I'd call pretty.

Ginnifer Goodwin should have taken a clue from Morena on the short hair thing. Definitely not as attractive.
As far as I know it has not been promoted as a mini-series, but I can't see it going farther than a couple of seasons.

I'm trying to follow it a bit, getting confused with the 3 characters for Giniffer Goodwin, the others have only 2 characters.

One of my favorite folk at the day center I work at likes this show, I hope it lasts a while because she really enjoys her shows and was quite disappointed when V was canceled.
