Once Upon a Time in Storybrooke
In the little town of Storybrooke, Maine is a world where fantasy meets reality. A curse is set upon all the fairy tale creatures that you've read about. The evil queen, who is the town mayor,will stop at nothing to keep the truth hidden, reek revenge on the one who took her happy ending away, and fulfill her curse. What will happen when Emma, Snow White's daughter returns after 28 years to find her son Henry? Who is on the good side and who is on the bad? How did Emma escape the curse? How much is the queen willing to sacrifice to fulfill her evil plan?
Since the first episode, I was sucked into this story. As it switches from fantasy and back to reality, it slowly unfurls these fairy tales and how they all connect. Every character has forgotten who he is because of this curse. It made me think twice of what I thought I knew about Cinderella, Belle, Little Red Riding Hood, Grumpy, the fairy godmother, and Rumplestilskin. Each of them have their own battles and hardships to fight. None of them are perfect, yet they all strive for Happily Ever After.
Now I have always LOVED fairy tales, but this is beyond awesome. I made sure that I never missed an episode as it left me on the edge of my seat begging for more. But the real question is, what happens next? Will the characters finally remember who they are? What will happen if the curse is broken? Will Emma expose the truth and break the curse like she was destined to?
