ABC announced plans today for a special program looking back on six seasons of the network’s drama series “Once Upon a Time.” The one-hour special, “Once Upon a Time: The Final Battle Begins,” airs Sunday, May 14, at 7 p.m. ET, followed by the two-hour season finale of “Once Upon a Time” at 8 p.m.
The special will feature cast members and executive producers looking back on favorite moments from the show’s past and examining their characters’ journeys.
“They will discuss what the show has meant to them personally and to the millions of fans who made ‘Once Upon a Time’ a hit show on ABC,” the network says in its announcement. “Additionally in this special, ‘Oncers’ get to ask the cast and producers their most burning questions about the series.”
“Once Upon a Time” stars Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow White/Mary Margaret, Jennifer Morrison as Emma Swan, Lana Parrilla as the Evil Queen/Regina, Josh Dallas as Prince Charming/David, Emilie de Ravin as Belle, Colin O’Donoghue as Hook, Jared S. Gilmore as Henry Mills, Rebecca Mader as the Wicked Witch/Zelena and Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold.
I haven’t missed an episode. This was a very clever idea when it first came out, and it’s still going pretty strong. But, good luck understanding anything if you haven’t watched it all along.
I give them credit for ending the show before the premise has worn thin. Too many shows with great premises go way beyond resolution and just start silly plot lines to try and extend.
