"Once Upon a Time" on ABC HD - Page 22

Those Disney sitcoms are purposefully acted and written in that style which is horrible acting and writing. Everyone yells and says the lines overemphasized. That doesn't mean the actors are bad. They're just drawn that way.

Indeed the little girl was a splitting image of Ginnifer.. wow..

If this show was on HBO or Starz it would be better, they didn't have to deal with FTA TV rules and all....

I was sure that was going to happen at the end of this episode but I guess they are saving it for a later one. I can't believe they're making us wait 3 weeks for a new episode, I have half a mind to just wait and get the blu-ray set and then I wouldn't have to deal with those horrible snipe advertisements that are constantly on screen.

Well after the 3 week break we get the last 4 episodes of the season in a row, it seems kinda pointless to wait for the Blu-ray and it could be a long wait because ABC is terrible about releasing Blu-ray sets for any show not named lost.

To be specific, it is the production company, ABC Studios, not the network, that doesn't release shows on Blu-ray. There are shows on ABC that make it to Blu-ray, Rookies being one of them.

Yeah, but ABC Studios is producing OUaT...

Correct. I never said that it wasn't. Just trying to point out that because it is on ABC doesn't necessarily mean that it won't be released on Blu-ray. I probably should have added that OUaT is an ABC Studios production, meaning that it more-than-likely won't be released on Blu-ray.

So it is believed that the coupon with the 4 episode DVD sampler coupon was in error mentioning a blu-ray set?

What 4 episode coupon?

There was a coupon in the OUAT sampler sold at target. It was good for a discount on the full season dvd or blu-ray.

As if I were going to go to Target and buy a sampler DVD. Not! Blu-rays are cheaper from Amazon, for example, and I don't pay tax.

That said, I have no idea what prompted ABC Studios to get off their fat-asses and actually release this series on Blu-ray. It isn't exactly another Lost.

It is great to know that it will be forthcoming on Blu-ray, though I've yet to see anything on the TV Shows on DVD website.

No tax is nice but you have to pay for shipping!

I guess you don't use super saver shipping. Free with $25+ purchase. This series' Blu-ray will be $25+.

I've never paid for shipping when Amazon is the seller.

Even using super saver, I usually have ages small items in my cart I'm not in a rush to buy that I can use to make up the $25.

Of course, now I am a prime customer, which includes 2 day shipping.

I'm Prime also and once got a 200 lb. Weber grill shipped out next day for $3.99. 2 Days would have been free.

I did not know that, it does change a few things. Any word on a release date?

I'm pretty sure I paid for at least half the cost of my prime membership having 50 pounds of home theater gear shipped to me using 2 day shipping. Better yet, it arrived the next day, so I got nextday shipping for free.

That doesn't even take into account all the free books, music and streaming media I've consumed as part of that membership.

But, as to the original question of why buy in the store, I get a lot of discounts sent to me in addition to the normal coupons Disney offers. Those are in store only, and more than make up for the sales tax.

I had my snowblower shipped 2nd day for free through Prime. The driver removed it from the truck with a pallet jack and rolled it right up into the garage for me. I order so much from Amazon that the service has paid for itself for many years to come (probably longer than I will live).

I was equally impressed with the younger not-yet-Queen. Lana Parrilla, made up as a younger woman, changed the timbre of her voice just right to effectively carry that off. However, at the time when she realized she had been set up by her mother, her more mature voice with the evil, deeper tones emerged.

I love how a heart can be drawn from the chest through clothing without leaving a mark. Zombies would be jealous. I need to see the back story of how the mother came upon her magic powers.

Sankara stone.

Just a refinement of the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart maneuver. (Kill Bill 2)

I'm most curious to see how they explain how the heart they found was a DNA match to the missing woman... who has now turned up alive (presumably with a heart)...

That seems like it would be tough to explain, because even if they can't try Mary for murdering the woman who has reappeared... it still doesn't change that they found a heart in a box that has Mary's fingerprints and a murder weapon...

That or the spine removal from Mortal Kombat...


Assuming the fact that the heart was deemed to be a DNA match, despite the fact that she's obviously alive, it could allow for the idea that it wasn't even a human heart at all. Even if the heart is actually human, any two bit lawyer could get it, the knife and the box thrown out as evidence based on obvious issues with collection and lab procedures. In other words, fingerprint evidence would also be suspect and merely be there based on the fact that the box was Snow's - meaning they wouldn't tie her directly to some other potential murder and lack of other fingerprints could be a sign of either additional lab error or tampering.

It would be a slam dunk for the defense.

No matter what, they wouldn't be able to hold her on the current charges, though she would likely remain a "person of interest" until the case of the telltale heart were resolved. In other words, "don't leave town"...which shouldn't be a problem...

If they found a body to go along with the heart, they could always bring new charges in a new case with a new victim.

I'm sure the heart is now missing.

I'm thinking the fact that the person you are accused of murdering shows up alive is sort of a slam dunk. The heart business shows that there was some sort of tampering or frame up.

That's exactly what I was saying. Obviously, the current case against her is moot based on the murder not actually happening.

If the DNA evidence pointed to it being from a person who is clearly alive, it calls into question the forensics on every piece of evidence.

That means it calls into question her involvment in foul play surrounding the owner of the now mystery heart.

I was just being a bit more direct.

This is AVS - being direct is not allowed. All comments must present supposition and personal opinion as facts and each member is expected to either hate or defend a show, network or media format in a manner so vigorous that it would imply they have a vested interest in said media or its direct competitor.

It's the rule that comes right between "no cussing" and "don't shoot the piano player"...



BTW: I responed to your comment only to make myself more clear since your post made me think I didn't do that initially not to imply any misunderstanding on your part.

No problem. I am a bit of a wise-ass but almost always directed at the situation and not a poster. No offense intended. None taken.

As somebody earlier suggested, I also want to find out how Cora developed her powers (Maybe she skilled somebody who had those powers?). It will be interesting to see how Regina ends up killing her. I wonder if it will be a carefully planned murder or a completely accidental one.
