Thoughts on OUAT & The Fall!

Today I watched a few shows which included: Once Upon A Time & The Fall.

Once Upon A Time - 6x01:

After a hiatus OUAT was back with its season 6 opener. I was excited to see Jafar and Aladdin appear at the beginning of the episode as I'm a huge fan of the animation. It was one of my favourites growing up. Sadly, we only got a glimpse of them at the start. But seeing as Jafar was gloating to Aladdin about what happens to saviours in the end when they have saved everyone, very similar to what Hyde was saying to Emma, no doubt we'll be seeing more of Jarfar and Aladdin this season.

The new villain of show, Hyde is truly scary. I am looking forward to seeing what he does next. Rumble has gotten on my last nerves though. Maybe it's because it's season 6 and Rumble has gone between doing the right thing to doing what he thinks is best and well, just plain evil.

At first, I liked the internal battle in Rumble between good and evil, and I liked his relationship with Belle. Now, I'm actually quite fed up with Rumble and I was applauding Belle when she rejected him in this episode. Belle deserves so much better. Rumble has lied and manipulated too much and I hope she doesn't go back to him.

I truly enjoy seeing Regina and Snow White interacting and getting along so well. I was so glad that Regina apologised for being a bad step mother and I like how much Regina and Snow have grown since the first season. It's so great to see.

Emma's tremors and her visions have intrigued me and I'm interested to see where that goes. I enjoyed her scenes with Hook too but wished there was more.

Overall, I enjoyed this episode, but i wouldn't watch it again like straight away if you know what I mean.

The Fall - 3x01:

So finally The Fall returned after airing its second season in 2014, and it felt like a different show. While, there was so much happening in this episode, and I liked seeing the doctors working to save Specktor, it felt like it changed from a crime drama to a medical show. There were some great scenes featuring Stella with Rose, Rose's husband and Anderson (played by Colin Mirgan), but I felt disconnected to it. But I'm looking forward to the next episode to see where things go.
