Swan Song was almost the epitome of all things bad with Once. (Note: I said "with" not about. See I'm not as cynical as you think.)

It had plot contrivances, nonsensical magic, weird OOC moments (What is Snow doing there giving up?!), and more than anything, LOST Potential. I saw someone mention Nimue. Caroline Ford, who played Nimue, rocked that role, had fantastic acting, broght some gravitas to that character, but they made all the DOs the biggest fools ever. A mindless horde of cloaks doing pretty much nothing....Shame. That's why I sort of lack the big h-o-p-e for the Savior mythos after they did with the Dark One arc towards the end.

The only thing Swan Song didn't have is cringe-levels of cheesy moments and dialogue. If they Shattered Sight-ed the episode, then it would go downunanimously as the worst ever.

However, I don't have a worst episode as of yet, but that is ranking high. Likely my least favorite would be the one most pointless and boring, but even the bad ones have their moments.
