There's definitely an odd rift between tone and subject matter; at times the show tries to be deadly serious when perhaps it could use more charm.October 31, 2011
From a pair of Lost producers, this is a love-or-hate proposition, and I mostly hated.October 31, 2011
Fans of the fantastical can do far worse than Once Upon A Time, which manages to both stir the pulse and please the senses with its beautifully imagined medieval times.October 31, 2011

It's not easy to strike the right note between the real and the storybook; Once Upon a Time finds it though.October 31, 2011

Once's drama is whimsical, fanciful and over-the-top in some ways.
