I know right?!
LOL
Let us hope that Cruella DeVille isn't magically made magic when her and Ursala come on the scene next.

I thought Regina was Ursala? Or are you just throwing names out there?
Nope, Regina just pretended to be Ursala to use Ariel. The real Ursala exists as well.
Here'e a pic of both with Gold.

I have to say, I'm not feeling this season. I thought the last episode was lame. So, you hate what you love and it will tear the town apart. Why did Regina go after Snow and not Henry? Why were Snow and Charming so concerned about the baby?
I am under the impression that this half season was forced on the writing staff by Disney in an attempt to cash in on Frozen.

I think you hit the nail on the head there. And while I largely feel the same way about this season so far...I DO think the addition of the Snow Queen and incorporating her into the Frozen family was well crafted. I genuinely felt her emotion at the end when she realized what she'd done, and it was well juxtaposed with young Emma's experiences. Thyis was the first episode that sold me though on Snow Queen as a character, rather than just a villain trope.
And the magic cloud was used for (what is this) a third or fourth time? Silly.
I have high hopes for Cruella DeVil if only because her raison d'etre has always been killing exotic animals for fashion (which means she shouldn't be able to craft any magical clouds)...so I'm really curious how that will fit into OUAT world...because they've only got Pongo.

She probably wants to turn Neil into a hat or something.

Or maybe they'll play up the Gold-as-Crocodile angle and have her want a Rumpled-suit?!

Nice!
I'm digging the Hook/Rumple story. I love seeing Regina struggle to do the right thing. Those are the highlights of the show for me. The Charming are just a little too over the top white hat.
What's everyone vote on Emma's "superpwoer" just a highly tuned intuition or can she really tell when someone is lying?

While this season was kind of meh....the fall finale was pretty good and teased what is basically going to be a Heroes VS Villains second half of the season. The Rumple & Belle scene at the end was heartbreaking.

I loved the Rumple/Bella scene too. Saved the episode.
I think I would have liked to see Cruella as someone who could become a classic villain, instead of being lumped in with Maleficent and Ursala in fairytale land. That just didn't seem to fit.

Hated the frozen arc, Rump/Belle is exactly what I love about the show. Give me hope for the next arc.

Looks like some of the Enchanted Forest scenes with Snow and Mal were filmed while Ginnifer Goodwin was still pregnant. That really cements the thought that the Frozen arc was rushed in.

The wife and I have bailed on this show completely. It just got too stupid to continue for us.

Cruella had the same powers as Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark, money. That could potentially make her the most powerful villain.
I've tried to watch this weeks episode twice now. I fell asleep both times.

Not going to read back through the thread because spoilers but just started watching this tonight. 4 seasons are on Netflix - is that the full run thus far?

So I'm all caught up. The season finished up nicely. The Cruella, Lily, and Bizzaro Enchanted Forest plots were good. The cliffhanger was enough for me to look forward to the next season.

So S5 started today. I haven't watched it yet but I really hope it will be the last! I'm hoping it's good with Emma being Dark...we will see. I'm just to invested in the characters to stop watching so I'm going to irate if this half is as bad as Frozen and Pan. Please end this show yall.
Watched the first episode of Season 5 and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Edit: Doesn't have the Frozen/Pan feel to it (yet) but there is a bit where you will roll your eyes in frustration. (you will know it when it happens)
I now love Netflix as OUP was cancelled in the UK so binge watched S4 (first half good second half meh except last couple episodes). They are also airing the S5 episodes a couple days after they premier which is awesome.
I just hope that its not 12 good episodes, 8 crap filler ones and then a cliff-hanger ending.
Oh and FYI, dark Emma is pretty hot (not as hot as Regina though)

PSA: Due to the above opinion, I suggest you find and watch the one season they did of a show called SWINGTOWN. You may thank me later.

Lets see if its 10 needless filler episodes before they do something worth while
