I don't know that it's THAT looked down upon in general, but I always want to say "Think Lovely Thoughts" for these topics...

Stephen Lord's performance in that, for me, was amazing.

I tend to lean towards the father figure characters when searching for favorite characters and I'm well aware of that (Thanks, sucky Dad... lol, long story there), but even trying to think rationally, I'm blown away by his performance and by Think Lovely Thoughts in general. Wyatt Oleff was also wonderful in his role as little Rumple.

That is keeping in mind that I have quite a few bones to pick with the writers about this episode, too... It's not near my favorite episodes in terms of actual story -- there's so much I'd change, but regardless there are other fields in which it does indeed impress (at least me)!
