Well when they first announced Colin would play Hook my BFF showed it to me and I instantly said "If that's going to be Captain Hook then he's going to be a Bad Boy, and if he's a bad boy then he's going to fall hard and fast for Em. He'll probably even end up being her TL." And my BFF said I was nuts because Captain Hook is a villain and Em was well Em. So we made a bet and she paid me half after 2x06 then the rest after 2x22, then I said let's go double or nothing for season 3. Haha lets just say she wouldn't bo well in Vegas but I would. Hahahaha!!!!

Jennifer Morrison said (back during Season 1, I believe), that Emma's love interest would be a character who is traditionally known as a villian. Considering, ABC did cancel OUaT right after Skin Deep aired. I do not see why it was so farfetched, to re-imagine Captain Hook as a romantic anti-hero. Rumplestiltskin as the Beast is a lot stranger, than a young and dashing Captain Hook.

I didn't know they canceled OUAT once! Fortunately the ratings went up. I remember reading how the writers originally intended for Em to have 3 children then changed it to 1 but I had no idea that it got cancelled once. Interesting.
