    Hey I only just discovered Once Upon A Time a few weeks ago and I absolutely fell in love with it. Im a massive Disney fan, maybe that's why, but I love their take on all the fairy tales. I cannot believe I had missed out on it. Im all caught up now, and I cannot wait for season4.
    any idea what channel it will be on over here?

    RTE still have to show Season 3. For some bizzare reason they are repeating Season 2 rather than showing Season 3 at the moment (double episodes on RTE2 every Saturday afternoon)

    Would this series be suitable for a nine year old girl ?

    She saw Melificent,, has also seen all the Jurassic Parks & most recently Oz: great & powerful & loved them all, so scenes of mild terror are ok (think she loves them really)


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,925 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Yeah, I'd say it'd be fine for an 8 year old. There's nothing more scary than what's in those films you named and the plots and logic are very basic so it's not like anything would go over her head.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,035 ✭✭✭OU812


    Excellent. That's a new series for us so. Are they 40 minutes each ?

    Also one of the main characters is a 10 year old boy, so may help your daughter relate

    Just finished my second run through. So looking forward to the new season. Dying to see what's going to happen with Regina and Robin.

    All the shows back in September. So much to watch!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Oh I have a question too, how did aurora end up in storybrooke and how come she was dressed like a princess in the final episode? Am I right in assuming she and Philip were brought there with the curse, as monkeys and then just turned back when Zelina was defeated?


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,793 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Yep. And this is their first time in Storybrooke. But pretty good chance they'll be ignored since the show hasn't a great history with supporting characters (Ruby for example) and they'll be focussing a lot on the Frozen characters.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,925 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    I follow Sarah Bolger on twitter and she usually mentions when she's heading up to Vancouver. She hasn't since what would have been the finale. I wouldn't imagine she'll feature at all.

    Probably won't get much of Tinkerbell either.

    Knave of Hearts/Will Scarlet will be one of the regulars next season, he was good in the Wonderland spinoff.

    I must watch that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Watched the first ep of Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. I wasn't overly taken with it like I was with Once Upon a Time, but since the Knave is gonna be a regular in season 4 I'll watch it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,793 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Like I said, I need to get back to it. Think I got to episode 5 before getting sidetracked and they built up. But I remember getting to like The Knave and Alice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Watched a couple more eps of OUAT in Wonderland. Robin hood features. I was wondering why Will Scarlett wasn't in OUAT. Now I know. Saw the twist about Anastasia coming a mile off though.

    Kristin Bauer Van Straten is back as Maleficent for Season 4


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,793 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Guessing with less swearing than we're used to from her.

    But hearing her saying "F***ing Snow White" would be funny

    Watching that promo makes me think it'd be entertaining if they actually wore their Enchanted Forest clothes in Storybrooke. :)

    It would be brilliant. Maybe HBO can buy the rights to the show :)

    Big time for Regina, looks much better as The Evil Queen.

    Yeah, I was holding off on saying how I prefer her Evil Queen outfits. :pac:

    Expect a Cinderella arc for September 2015.

    Just finished Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. Really enjoyed it. It's pretty much a standalone series with a couple appearances from characters from the main show.

    Wasn't sure of the characters at the beginning, but they all grew on me. Alice and the Knave were great together. Liked Michael Socha in his role. He's the spit of his Misfit sister.

    Jafar was a proper villain who you're meant to dislike and do.

    The Red Queen probably had the hardest job of convincing me. But once she was given a chance to develop her character, we got to see she was good in the role.

    Apart from some dodgy effects, I thought the whole series worked well and am glad they didn't drag it out.

    Speaking of dodgy effects and a show being dragged out, the main show is back next week in the States.

    Next Sunday in America, wonder is Will Scarlet Maid Marians brother or Elsas brother and will we see Alice or the White Rabbit again.
