Once Upon a Time was a show that I picked up when it was in its second or third season. I remember thinking that the fairytale angle was brilliant and they could make it so much darker than the Disneyfied versions of these stories. It has been about a decade since the last time that I’ve seen this show but I know that it got weird towards the end. So this is on the list of shows that started good but went off the rails and we are going to analyze it just the same to figure out where the breaking point was. So here we go with the first season of Once Upon A Time.

This show is so classic CW it feels like Grimm, like Smallville. It has a very specific tone and I really kinda love it. I am officially invested. This is a very very solid first season. The plot is so clearly laid out, the characters and their roles are extremely well detailed and developed. Now I know that eventually this show goes off the rails but it really does start off very intriguing. I will continue to watch the show because I would like to see exactly where it goes weird.
