Why are A Bitter Draught, Street Rats, and Dark Waters rated overall so low, and Heartless rated overall so high. How many more episodes of the Snow White story do you all need to see? The most interesting things about that episode was the subtle reference to the Woodcutter in Little Red Riding Hood, and the even subtler reference to Wilby in The Shaggy Dog. Does no one like The Count of Monte Cristo, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, or Aladdin? I just don't get it. I think "Heartless" was a really well written episode. I was very skeptical about it before it aired because of the Snowing flashbacks, but I really loved the present day story (and I do think they made the flashbacks work, whether or not they were entirely necessary.) I'm also a fan of "A Bitter Draught", I just happened to enjoy other episodes more. Overall though, I loved a majority of 6A. Then for "Street Rats", it was too much of a Disney ripoff, felt incomplete, and just poor overall. I'm not a Hook (or Henry) fan, and I haven't read "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea", so the most I really got out of "Dark Waters" was Snow and Belle's hospital scenes.
