Can't believe I am the first to start this thread, since the show has been on for five weeks.

There was a LOST Easter Egg in this week's episode (the dragon episode).

Anyone else spot it?

I have been really enjoying it. I had posted a bit about it in the general television thread. It sort of reminds me of the comic book Fables. I hope enough people are watching it that it sticks around.

I'm enjoying it, too. I'm a big fan of Jennifer Morrison and it's great that she's getting a spotlight role. I'm not sure how they're going to sustain the idea, though. What happens when someone starts remembering the truth?

I have been a Jennifer Morrison fan since her days as Dr. Cameron on House. Also wondering how long they can keep the story line up.

Lana Parilla as the evil witch is pretty darn sexy too!

Did you see Morrison when she was on How I Met Your Mother for several episodes -- that's when I really became impressed with her.

I have seen so few of that show! Even with the DVR there are only so many hours in the day. :-)

I'm glad someone else noticed those! I've caught a couple of Lost references - the Apollo bars Henry carried and Widmore's brand of whiskey at Snow White's house. Pretty sweet.

I tried the first episode and it felt very tedious.

I tried to get into it but is getting hard to...It seems IMO that they are trying to hard with the flash backs but that is part of the story...lol...story!!! Will try to watch a little more to see if I can get into this show.

I watch it with my nine year old daughter, so ... it gives us something to watch together and I don't have to worry too much about screening it beforehand. It does remind me of Fables, but not as awesome.

Loved the finale! I also believe it has been continued for another season.

I can't believe i haven't posted here before. Amber and i like this show a lot. And yes, there are lots of Lost references, which i love. "Glass... Swan", anyone? 8:15, 108, so many.

Ah...I did not catch the Emma Swan reference..the hatch!

Explain the Glass reference to me...not getting it.

I did notice Regina's address was 108.

Well, you have the Looking Glass and the Swan Station. Just googled Once Upon A Time Lost references, there are quite a few out there that I didn't really think about. But also, thereare some that go a little too far ("He has a blue cup! Richard from Lost had a blue cup that looked just like that!") lol

I got that there was a Looking Glass Station on Lost....just not sure the "Glass" reference in OUAT.

Probably right in front of my face and missing it.

Yeah...I too saw that blue cup thing earlier.....they were probably just recycling props.

Hey..I hear the characters on both shows breath O2 !!!!!!!

lol

it's one show we never miss! Can't wait to see "Hurley" as the "Giant" at the top of the beanstalk!

I love their skew on the traditional fairytales.

Lost is never over, Bill.... it's an infinite time loop with alternate realities that we simply aren't privy to anymore. ;)

Come on Bill....Wasted?.......That was a great show with a less than stellar ending.

It's about the journey....not the destination.

I know and ths is the last I will speak of it here, nut to me the Less than stellar ending, canon-wise, rendered, alot of significant plot points meaningless. I was so looking forward to interesting and challenging answers!!!

Sorry to go so off topic all!!

A new take on Little Red Riding Hood! Loved it!

Bev Vincent

The earlier episode that featured Red Riding Hood was truly inspired, I thought. A great take on the legend -- she's both Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf!

This week's episode opens with August/Pinnochio waking up at 8:15....as in.....

4 8 15 16 23 42.

I think it is enough with the Lost Easter Eggs already.....that show has been over for years, and for the most part has faded away.

Don't get me wrong....I liked Lost and was hooked on it when it was on....but as soon as it was done.....it was done.

I wonder if OUAT will get a third season.
