Well, at least there are a few people on here who know what I am talking about! LOL! It's a new series and the general storyline is like this:
A long time ago, after snow white married prince charming, the evil queen banished all fairytale characters (using a powerful curse) to a little town in our world called Storybrooke, Maine. There's a catch however, none of them remembers who they really are. Well, except for the Queen (who is now the mayor) and Rumplestiltskin (who helped her get the curse and is now a wealthy real estate dude). Before the curse took effect, Snow White had a baby girl named Emma and sent her to our world through a magic wardrobe fashioned by Geppetto from an enchanted tree. Rumplestiltskin isn't really good or bad, he's just in it for himself- a buisnessman. Anyway, he told Snow that when Emma turned 28, she would find them and break the curse. So... fast forward to modern day and we have Emma all grown up and an orphan of course, because her parents sent her to another land, and they don't remember who they are. Emma had a boy when she was 18, but gave him up for adoption because she didn't think she would make a good mother at the time. But then, ten years later, he shows up on her doorstep and says "hey, I'm your son." It turns out that Henry, her son, was coincidentally adopted by the Evil Queen in Storybrooke, a.k.a. Regina the Mayor. Henry has this storybook that has the stories of all the fairytale characters in it and what the queen did to them, except it isn't totally specific about where they were banished to and that kinda thing. Henry is absolutely positive that these stories are true and he tells Emma that she is Snow White's daughter and she has to break the curse. At first, she doesn't believe him but stays in Storybrooke anyway because she is concerned that his now mother Regina is evil and would hurt him. Eventually, after a lot of "hello!?!?! It's kinda obvious!!!" moments, she starts to believe all the stories. Toward the end of season 1, we have met a whole host of poor fairytale characters who are cursed to our world and don't remember anything! But Emma breaks the curse like Rumplestiltskin said she would. (I won't tell you how). And one other effect of the curse- the characters are frozen in time, so they don't really age or anything which makes Snow, Charming and Emma (their daughter) about the same age when they meet. Which makes it awkwardish when the curse is broken and they all remember everything. And the first season ended with Rumplestiltskin (Mr. Gold) bringing magic into Storybrooke...
And so now we are in season 2, and Emma and Snow White (a.k.a. Mary Margaret) have accidentally been sent through a magic portal, that got destroyed after they jumped in it, back to fairytale land and they are searching for a way back to Maine. They are meeting old friends, new friends, and evil enemies! And back in Storybrooke, Regina is trying to prove to Henry that she loves him and is not completely evil, while David (Prince Charming) is trying desperately to find a way to get to his wife and daughter.
So... I didn't know that I had absorbed it that much, but I guess I have since I am totally in love with it and fairytales! It is really easy to get into, watching it from the start, and totally awesome! The first season is on Netflix, and you can catch up on season 2 online at ABC's website. Or they have an app called ABC Player!
Thanks for spending all this time reading this entire post, if you did! Enjoy the show!!!
So I found the first season on Netflix Friday night and stayed up unitl 11 watching the fist two episodes. (I know 11 isn't late for most of you, LOL). But over the weekend I have watched the whole first season and the first two episodes of season two. Later this week I will watch episode three form this season.
