3B is great, I even consider it the best arc by far, both for the tension, the story, the villain, and the visual effects. It even ended with one of the best finale of OUAT, and the ending is near-perfect. 3A and Going Home is no-way the ending the show deserves. Going Home is great, but only There's No Place Like Home brought the FIRST storyline full circle (except for the Marian and Elsa part, which could be eliminated easily) 3B is also one of my favorite arcs. I completely agree that Going Home would have been a bad ending. There were too many things left open and besides, what sort of happy ending is being separated from and forgetting the family you just found? Not all stories and series have a happy ending. We need to take off out of our minds that everything need to end happy. Life is not happy. Our ending is not happy, we end dying. Is that happy? I would agree with you if this was almost any other show. However, this show is primarily based on fairy tales, which literally end with "and they lived happily ever after". So yeah, if this show ends on a "bad" note, it would be a bad ending for the show, because of the premise of the show.
