Just came across this video essay about love triangles including a guy named Nate 😂

Am I the only one who thinks the songs in Wicked Wonderland sound sooooo similar and have similar messages to the Zombies 4 songsss?

Like…

Perfect Princess = Legends in the Making

Did You Hear About Them = The Place to Be

For Once In My Life = Dream Come True

Who I Am = My Own Way

Go Live It = Show The World

Some of these might be stretches but For Once In My Life and Who I Am are undeniable.

I looooove the new album so much and was wondering if anyone has seen any great edits (especially for 2000s teen drama shows) to songs from it.

I looooove the new album so much and was wondering if anyone has seen any great edits (especially for 2000s teen drama shows) to songs from it.

This is my first time watching Gossip Girl and I've gotta say the season 3 finale is one of the best episodes of television I've ever watched (and I've watched a lot). I should probably mention that for me, the messier the plot, the better. So, I'm gonna list through my thought process as I was watching this episode.

So, of course, some of the opening scenes show Jenny in bed with Nate and Serena in bed with Dan. I will say that I am a Chuck/Blair and Serena/Nate shipper, so this was very frustrating, which of course made it more entertaining. The way I was cringing when Jenny took the photo of Serena and Dan was hilarious.

I love how Georgina came back and keeps asking people for help, only for them to brush her off. Again, this is hilarious.

OMG Chuck waiting at the top of the Empire State Building is the sweetest and saddest thing I've ever seen. I'm always rooting for this couple.

This ends the first half of the episode. I will say that up until this point I enjoyed it about as much as an average Gossip Girl episode. But, now it really goes off the rails.

I'm a huge fan of teen dramas so I've taken on the habit of predicting what's going to happen next, and oftentimes it is just the messiest thing I can think of. As soon as Jenny walked into Chuck's suite, I immediately clocked that they were going to at least kiss. When they ended up sleeping together I LOST it. Again, the messier and more stressful the better. Then, when Jenny saw the bag on Chuck's night stand and disappeared, I immediately clocked that it was an engagement ring.

The really diabolical part of my brain thought about how it would be crazy if this night between Chuck and Jenny resulted in a pregnancy, but that was even too far for me haha!

Blair and Chuck making up are the cutest, even knowing that Jenny is in the next room. They had about five minutes of happiness.

I LOVE a protective brother moment. Both Eric and Dan coming to Jenny's defense warmed my heart. But, it got even better when Dan PUNCHED Chuck as he was about to PROPOSE. Just perfect. I was watching this and totally thought this was the peak of the episode, but there is still more mess to come.

Georgina showing up pregnant is spectacular. I love a pregnancy storyline and I also love that her having a baby with (supposedly) Dan is just barely a step below my devious Jenny thought. As much as I would love for this to become a major plot, I honestly don't think Gossip Girl has the guts. I assume the baby will end up not being Dan's and Georgina will just leave with it. My dream scenario would probably be Georgina leaving the baby with Dan and then it will basically be raised by the whole friend group haha!

This is when I really thought the episode had peaked, but then the very last scene happened. Chuck is SHOT while trying to hold onto the ring he got for Blair. We got a man yearning and violence all in one moment. Perfect television.

I know my thoughts are kind of unconventional but it's all in good fun. I'm looking for a show to be entertaining, not necessarily for just all the characters to be happy. So, this episode was definitely my favorite in the series so far.

No spoilers for season 4 and onward please!

Hello everyone! After years of being a Oncer I've finally made a timeline of the flashbacks in the show. To be clear, this is everything that takes place before the "present-day" storyline that begins in the Pilot with Henry going to find Emma.

I've broken the timeline into the following chapters: Ancient Camelot (6 events), Early Enchanted Forest (33 events), Tragic Backstory Era (52 events), Middle Years (73 events), Snowing Golden Age (85 events), Pre-Dark Curse (44 events), The Dark Curse (60 events).

To keep the post from being too long, I'm also going to break them up by chapter. This post will include Ancient Camelot, which is marked by the creation of the Dark One, and Early Enchanted Forest, which is marked by Rumplestiltskin becoming the Dark One and his backstory with Baelfire.

Please comment any mistakes or anything I missed. I created this using the Once Upon a Time fandom wiki, specifically the "history" section of character pages, as well as recaps of episodes, and episode connections listed under "trivia." Also, to keep things clear I referred to characters by their first name, and whichever name they were going by during that time.
