Rumple's backstory is over the course of six episodes---Think Lovely Thoughts, Manhattan, The Crocodile, Desperate Soul, Nasty Habits and The Return. Wonderful!

Owen is more realistic and sadder. Cruella's was reasonable and fun times i n a fake world.

I would say the predictable Ingrid one, but they were like 30 to 40 year old women acting like teens and that's like a disgrace to maturity and logic.

I would say Cora due to a twist, but you'd have to pair it with Bleeding Through an dit gets points off. Everyone else has poor motives, decent ones at best, but nothing to grand. Except for Arthur and Nimue..... I agree about Rumple, his episodes were so strong that ot pains me to see what they are doing to his character now.

Regina's episodes were inconsistent in quality. She had great ones (The Stable Boy, We Are Both), but it's all being ruined by "The Evil Queen", I really don't understand what they were trying to achive in this episode.

Hook's ones are kinda meh, I liked the Crocodile and And Straight on 'til Morning, but that is mainly because of Rumple and Baelfire respectively.

The Miller's Daughter is Wonderfull. Bleeding Through is bad and retcony and ruins both The Miller's Daughter and The Stable Boy and I hate that and kind of pretend that episode never happened.

I liked Think Lovely Thoughts and The Snow Queen.

I didn't like It's Not Easy Being Green - I always thought Zelena's motivation was week and she went after the wrong person. The episode too much reminded me of Oz The Great and Powerful and I HATED that movie.

Enter the Dragon was disappointing, I thought they could do more Sleeping Beauty iconic moments like the spinning wheel or at least make it consistent with season 2. It also had grown women acting like teenage girls, it was seriously not something I expected in a show that's supposed to be more mature. Oh Regina is with the cool girls and she can't be allowed to be seen with the losers.

Poor Unfortunate Soul was okay, I just don't get why bring Ursula only to have her leave after three episodes.

Sympathy for the Devil is weird. What ruins me the most about that episode is that Cruella was making threats without really backing them up. It's as if she wanted to be killed. It was also really weird that the only option Emma had was to kill her. Why not take the gun or teleport Henry. As for the flashbacks, I guess they were okay, but they really weren't clear about the rules of how the Author works, but that's a problem for the entire season.

The Broken Kingdome was just bad, but it's Arthur, everything is bad about him.

I liked Nimue, but I wish it didn't contradict everything we were told about Merlin's battle with the Darkness in season 4 finale.
