I loved it at first but the show has 4 major issues. 1 they way over rely on curses as major conflicts 2. People are really dumb until the story needs them not to be 3. Many characters are only fairytale characters in name 4. The fan theory writing style can make the storytelling cumbersome and convoluted. I love Henry and regina but that's about it. In the beginning maybe the first 2 seasons I was in love but then it began to lose its luster. They constantly have the same conversation," dont lie /dont keep secrets, dont go In alone, love conquers all, villains aren't just skin deep, good guys aren't always good, then they forget all of this when something happens.
