Maybe it's because I don't like kids in my tv shows, but I am actually okay with Lucy because of that reason XD

She is not intrusive and everywhere like Henry was in season 1, she shouldn't be useless however.

I'm not into Jacinda/Cinderella and Dania's casting, Gabrielle's casting and Lady Tremaine, Gothel is still incomplete for me... I want to like her, actually, I want her to be this season's Rumple. And Henry is DEFINITELY weaker as a protagonist than Emma, as much as I like male protagonists.

Lack of males is especially disappointing. We have over 10 new female characters including the new Robin, and barely 3 relevant males in Henry, Dr. Facilier and Nick. Wish Hook doesn't count as a new character, and I'm still angry about the idea of this doppelganger, should we care about a different Hook? I also didn't like CaptainSwan's happy ending because it felt way too fanservice-y and shoehorned in, just forced and doesn't explain anything. Also, I feel like too many people are awake and it sorts of weakens the curse.

Good points include Regina and Roni, Rumple and Weaver, Drizella and Ivy, Alice and Tilly, Tiana and Sabine, Rogers, Rumbelle's bittersweet happy ending, Hyperion Heights and its differences with Storybrooke, the focus on multiple fairy tales and different variations of them.
