Arguably the character with the most wasted potential.
Born with twice the darkness and no light. Kidnapped as a child and lost to a foreign world. Her kidnappers never even cared to look for her or own up to the heartbreak felt by her nor her mother, yet they are treated like literal sweet royalty and she struggles and her mother is either depressive or dead. Literally the opposite to Emma. Born from one of the most powerful witches/dragons ever and apparently Zorro.
This is just the tip of the iceberg with Lily Page. They could have done so much with her and she would have been a fantastic new character, good or bad.
Are there any characters that you dislike so much that it hurts the show for you?
For me its Robin Hood. I never liked the character but Sean McGuire's performance was nauseating to me. For a character that was so unnecessary to the story and so comparatively weak, having an actor make this constipated face every five seconds just drives me up a wall. I wasnt overly bothered by the other actors Robin Hood but this one was pure ick
Yes, I know my dislike of Robin is overkill but I just cant help it. For me, he takes up space and/or brings the quality of the show down. lol
We listen and we dont judge. lol
Hot Take: Take out the Frozen stuff but keep the Ice Queen stuff and season 4A is top tier.
Introduce Ingrid, only allude to her ties to Frozen, and focus on her relationship to Emma. I think Ingrid was one of the better characters they introduced and her backstory with Emma was really good and deserved to be explored more if possible. Let Ingrid go out as a tragic character and maybe...just maybe...Frozen's intro could make more sense far in the future instead of being a negative turning point for the show.
This Tweet got me thinking.
I respect all the Jacksons and I can honestly say I have given all of their music a chance, even the 3rd generation. However, the quality of the music has never been consistent in my opinion which is not a bad thing. To expect anyone to perform at Michael Jackson's level is absurd, let alone his entire family. I never thought the quality of their music nor the level of their solo success was due to self esteem because other than Tito, they all put out music.
Jermaine put out FOUR albums in the 80s alone!!!!!! I never thought self esteem was what stopped his success but instead it was just that people didnt vibe with his music. With Tito specifically, I thought he didnt do solo work because he was focused on his sons music and helping them.
To see Taj say this is the reason the brothers never thrived as solo artists got me thinking. How true can this be? Of course, they could have dealt with self doubt but I struggle to understand how that stopped them from being super successful when it didn't stop them from putting out albums. I mean if Janet can do it with less fame, more anxiety, and behind a bigger shadow, why couldn't they? Other than it just wasnt for them, which is totally okay.
Thoughts?
Which season 7 characters do you really like?
I know season 7 gets a lot of hate but they did a few things right and I wish we got to experience certain characters for longer. For me, they are Roni, Nook, Sabine, and DRIZELLA. I truly think Drizella is one of the better OUAT characters ever and she had so much potential. Her relationship with Regina made me want her to have made an appearance sooner.
What about you?
