Once Upon a Time: A Pirate's Life (2017)
Good sendoff...poor idea
Okay. So I was extremely nervous that Emma Swan would be killed off of the show. And no, that didn't happen. I'm happy, right? Well...
What the hell was the show thinking with involving the WISH REALM into this world? How does this even make sense! I suppose I am going to have to swallow my irritations for the season, but this is just stupid.
Once Upon a Time: Hyperion Heights (2017)
Good. I'll continue watching.
So I was one of the few who really hoped that there would be a season seven. And though I hoped it would be a continuation of the original canon, I'm pleased with how the season started. New questions developed...I'm theorizing! There was one glaring negative, however, being Jacinda's acting. It wasn't necessarily the acting, but more of the likability of the character and actress.
Once Upon a Time: The Savior (2016)
Solid start to an underrated season...not the best though
Looking back on the first 'canon' of OUAT (seasons 1-6), I would have to say that season 6 was one of my favorites. In fact, I would rank them like this... (from best to worst)
1
6
3
2

The first episode of the sixth season, however, is definitely not one that stands out. It is a very solid introduction to the 'Emma's fate as savior arch', but as far as the rest of the story, it does not do much (the Evil Queen Doppelganger is not even seen till the end. Also, as a Rumbelle fan, the rift between them (paralleling an abusive relationship) is continued in the first episode, like 5b and is completely stupid as we all can guess that they will be endgame.
Rating: 7/10 (solid, doesn't stand out)
Once Upon a Time: A Bitter Draught (2016)
'Story of the week' format
'A Bitter Draught' in my opinion is the best of the 'Untold Story' arch (5.22-6.06). This is due to the fact that the character of the Count of Monte Christo fits the show's style. In the previous seasons, OUAT has gotten their story lines too big and Disney (Frozen, Queens of Darkness, Hades). Coming back to classic literature makes the episode resemble a season one episode with a 'story of the week' format. This episode shows the strength and power of the Evil Queen Doppelganger - a villain who can involve many people into her twisted goal. The only minus for the episode, however, would be the new team up between Belle and Hook. There is no way in any world except television that Belle and Hook would even speak to each other after all Hook has done to Belle (you could say only television permits Rumple and Belle to interact as well). Belle is slightly idiotic in later seasons, especially 6.
Rating: 9/10 (great with one flaw)
