There have definitely been highlights sure but it's liek every adversity they come across doesn't make you wonder what wiill happen because we already know.

We already know Emma will give into the darkness and not be able to fix excalibur. We already knew Nimue was the first Dark one even before it was revealed to us. The closest thing Emma has done to being "Dark" is breaking Henry's heart and even that was for the greater good. I guess you could argue that she petrified a dwarf but Regina easily undid that which leads me back to this season being anti climatic.

Snow who is supposed to be more or less the female Robin Hood, gets taken out by a kick? Man I really hope they're making this first half boring on purpose to build up for the next half.

I still haven't seen a real reason for making Emma force them to lose their memories other than plot convenience and fan service.

That being said though this most recent episode was half decent so maybe they're waiting until the season A finale to finally raise the stakes.
