ONCE UPON A TIME

If you read my last post you already know about my love for all kinds of fairytales. Well the tv show Once Upon A Time is about pretty much every fairytale character I can think of, and I love it!

 

Loads of people are talking about Once Upon A Time lately because it recently appeared on Netflix in the UK. I have watched the whole of the first season and some of the second, and it just keeps getting more and more exciting.

 

You might wonder what could be interesting about watching a bunch of fairytale characters since we've all been brought up knowing what happens anyway. But we learn that the stories don't turn out the way we heard when we were kids. Also there is a mixture of events happening in the world of these characters and also in the real world.



Red Riding Hood

Remember the Evil Queen from Snow White? Well she is still determined to ruin Snow White's life so she curses all the characters. They are transported to this world where they have no memory of their previous lives. It is down to Emma Swan to break this curse - but how can she believe that such a curse exists?

 

I will admit that even though I really loved the first two episodes, once I got to the third I got a bit frustrated with how things were going. But trust me, that feeling doesn't last long. It gets sooo much better! It's really fun to see more and more characters being introduced. I'm in the middle of the second season and I'm still seeing new characters. When seeing characters in the real world it is actually pretty fun to try to guess who their fairytale character is.

Snow White

The only negative thing I have to say about this series is that I find it quite difficult to really like Snow White and Prince Charming. This is mostly because their real life characters do things in the first season that Snow White and Prince Charming would never have done. Setting that thought aside, everything else is amazing, and those characters are still pretty likeable for other reasons.

Give this show a watch! It is not difficult to binge watch a couple of episodes one evening.

Have you been watching it? Who is your favourite character? If you haven't watched it I really think you should - then leave a comment to tell me you have been watching!
