5. Flashbacks for the sake of flashbacks. I really felt the Medusa episode was lame. The backstory did not make sense. There were other backstories that fell into this category as well. One of the things that I liked about Season 1 is that the flashbacks, when you resequence them chronologically, were a coherant story in and of themselves. (basically a twisted version of Snow White). I would not mind seeing more of that. I think, almost, everyone can agree on that. Which is why I enjoyed, the Missing Year arc. The flashback were filling in, on a time the audience knew nothing about. Everything was necessary to move the story forward. Even the Rapunzel episode served a purpose, in showing just how heartbroken and scared Prince Charming was, due to loosing Emma.
