Good God, WHAT A FINALE!

Firstly, could the writers have hinted at this way back? ''We really need another doctor in this town" said Regina when Whale was making fun of Zelena in 5A. If so, smart.

I'm 100% sure we'll now get Esmeralda, Aladdin, Gulliver and many more. Though I wouldn't want Don Quixote...maybe as a one-episode-only like Hercules.

When Regina and Emma realize that LWM now has magic... chills!

What a wonderful place the Land of Untold Stories is, really.

Regina's monologue in Neal's apartment was great and Lana was incredible.

Henry and Violet were a nice lead, it was a pleasant change.

Hook, Snow, Charming and Zelena. What a unique combination. Zelena had some great lines once again well of course, do you have some duct tape? and I wouldn't mind running.

Sam Witwer was outstanding as Hyde. Hank Harris as Jeckyll too but Sam was so good and scary.

Rumple was so good. Love driven, determined and ruthless. Amazing. Was Belle REALLY the cause of all this? Was Belle REALLY the driving point behind this and she wasn't even there? Ahaha I find it a bit hilarious. (I miss Emilie though).

AND the CGI was okay. The Evil Queen turning to dust looked incredible.I like that she didn't just drop dead. It goes to say she's not really there, she's more like, a living, breathing, vision. I certainly hope we don't see much of her in Season 6 because, between us, it is a bit ridiculous too (for me).

Soundtrack was fantastic.

And last but not least, I loved the little references to older things like Henry being the truest believer, to the blood on the map to every little thing that reminded us of older seasons.

BUT

What in the name of God was that CGI when Jeckyll became Hyde? It was SO bad, why didn't they just repeat the effect from when Neal was inside Rumple? That one was nice, effective, disturbing, everything. This one looked awful.
