ABC's Once Upon a Time - SEASON FINALE - Operation Mongoose

 Once Upon a Time

SEASON FOUR 2 HOUR FINALE

Operation Mongoose

So, it's been a long time since I last did a reaction - I just lost interest for a little while. Other things had my attention, but hell week is about to begin and I want to react to each one of them (which aren't that many this year). 

And first, we have Once Upon a Time! :D 

And it's 2 hours like last year!

So, let's begin! 

8:00 - The finale has began! That's Rumple right there on that horse and in that - or not... I'm confused. 
8:01 - Yeah, I'm very confused. 
8:02 - Oh, that was rude. Are we supposed to believe that the ENTIRE BOOK is just a STORY?! 
8:03 - Is this how the author is chosen?
8:04 - Yeah, this is how they chose the author. 
8:05 - I am so confused right now!! "What the hell?" Yeah, I'm wondering the same thing, Mr. Author!
8:06 - "I could wake up a talking frog." 
8:07 - Of course Hook does. Hi Blue! I missed you, slightly. 
8:08 - Confused, confused, confused.
8:09 - I hope Gold doesn't die. I really love Gold, even with everything he has done. 
8:10 - Why are we bringing up Baelfire? Oh, good, we aren't bring Bae back. 
8:11 - This won't end will. 

Commercial Break

8:15 - Henry, what happened?! I bet Henry's alone. 
8:16 - Yep, he is. The rewrite worked - I bet you anything Henry will become the new author.
8:18 - Well, Henry, didn't know you knew how to drive. Get out of there, Henry! FAST! Oh shit.
8:19 - Oh shit! 
8:20 - Oh, Regina! You...damn author! 
8:21 - Blackmail, Henry. Good boy! Your mother taught you well! "Are they still alive?"
8:22 - Yep, Henry's going to become the new author. GO HENRY! 
8:23 - And Henry goes in. Well, damn. Henry will be the Savior now! "Cool."
8:24 - Or not.

Commercial Break 

8:28 - "I don't need you changing things." "Doesn't matter."
8:29 - Those aren't chimes. And here comes Rumple.
8:30 - Henry's like 'da fuck?' 
8:31 - REGINA!! "My name is Henry and I'm your son." "Please be dead. Please be dead." 
8:32 - And there's the episode title.
8:33 - Why hasn't she questioned his outfit? "It can see my future?"
8:34 - "Wow, you are crazy." "Why am I still talking to you?" "Because I'm your son." "Did you?" "Yes." 

Commercial Break 

8:38 - He's changing the story. And he just got caught in his own trap. 
8:39 - "Not these guys." The dwarves! Evil!Snow! 
8:40 - "Get in here!" And Evil!Charming! 
8:41 - "Let him speak." 
8:42 - Well, this is interesting. "How?" "Revenge can be yours." 
8:43 - Can I just say Ginny as the Evil Queen is AMAZING?! OH MY GOD! She is SO gorgeous! 

Commercial Break

8:46 - And there goes Regina. "Snow White?" "Surprised to see me?"
8:47 - "Where's the boy?" 
8:48 - And there's Robin Hood! Being Mr. Good Guy! "I told you I didn't need rescuing." 
8:49 - "You still can't say 'thank you', can you?" Regina and Robin, GOD! EVEN IN AU WORLD THEY ARE STILL ADORABLE!!
8:50 - But *growls* 
8:51 - "Bride?" Oh...

Commercial Break

8:55 - Oh, this is completely awkward! "Thank you for saving my life." Poor Regina!
8:56 - "You have to stop calling you that." "I don't have a sister." 
8:57 - But you are, Regina! "I'll never have true love." 
8:58 - "Special magic?" "What aren't you telling me?" 
8:59 - Emma, poor Emma. And part two begins!
9:00 - And he's with Belle and they have a baby. If his name isn't Bae. 
9:01 - What could possibly happen now? Okay good. The kid's name isn't Baelfire. 
9:02 - "He died because of you." "You always do."
9:03 - Oh, Blackbeard is back! 
9:04- What the fuck happened to Hook? 
9:05- This outta be interesting. "Never mind." 
9:06 - "Henry." 

Commercial Break 

9:10 - "Pleasure." Oh shit. Should have also seen that coming too.
9:11 - "Of course you are." "It's complicated."
9:12 - "We aren't here to fight. We're a team." 
9:13 - "Well, now you're down to six." "Is that good?" 
9:14 - JUST KISS ALREADY! "I'm starting to get jealous of the other me." 
9:15 - Oh, Hook. You are...pathetic. That didn't work at all, don't believe it.

9:17 - HOOK! HOLY SHIT! 

Commercial Break - WHY DOES EVERY LOVE INTEREST THAT EMMA HAS DIES?!?!?! NOT FUCKING FAIR!!!

9:21 - Belle seems too...calm. I don't like this Belle.
9:22 - The chipped cup! AH! 
9:23 - "Because I can help." 
9:24 - PLEASE SAY YES, REGINA! "Not once. I was too scared." 
9:25 - I think there's a reason they brought August. And I'm not sure if this is okay. 
9:26 - Well, shit. Rumple ruins everything.

Commercial Break 

9:29 - "Go, I got the Dark One." 
9:30 - I'm getting nervous! So nervous. Shit, come on Regina! COME ON! Come on, Henry! Oh, Robin!

9:44 - NO, DO NOT BRING BACK NEAL!
9:45 - "They are more than stories. They are the truth." That sounded like a line from Harry Potter, which I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
9:46 - "I was already in love." 
9:47 - "I don't love Will." Shit, Rumple. 

Commercial Break

9:52 - Aww, Regina and Robin! "Together." "Perhaps."

Gotham - Series Premiere - Pilot (S1, Ep1)

Gotham

Series Premiere

Title: Pilot

Tonight's the night, loyal readers, the night all my fall shows come back with a BANG! And first on the list is Gotham. I know little to nothing about the DC world, I'm a Marvel girl, so I'm not up-to date with all the things going on in the DC world. I'm not a fan of Batman or Superman. 

Never been into those superheroes. 

So, what will tonight bring us? We'll see.

8:00 - And it begins, ah, it feels so good to react again. IT BEGINS!! And we meet Catwoman first, huh? 
8:01 - She's a lousy pick-pocket. Damn, she's fast.
8:02 - She's going to witness the murder of Batman's parents. That's a lot of blood for a simple shooting. 
8:03 - You've got a good screaming voice, kid. 
8:04 - And the main character has entered. Damn, you are good, lead. 
8:05 - Since when is that a basic? I guess in the comic-verse, it is. "No rest for the wicked, huh?" 
8:06 - "It makes it your case."
8:07 - The kid playing Bruce is quite a good actor with this crying scene. "There will be light. There will be light, Bruce." 
8:08 - "And shiny shoes." Bet that's important. "Be strong. I promise you, I'll find the guy who did this." 
8:09 - Hey, look, it's the butler. "Good luck, mate." 

Commercial Break - Kinda lackluster title slate. Kinda bored by it... Like I said, I don't know the DC verse. 

8:11 - The lead's partner is an asshole. Go away please.
8:12 - "Damn right, I'm scared." What happened between the cop and the special vic unit?
8:13 - Yeah, the partner can die. "The answer's no." 
8:14 - "She said you had to keep me, huh?" I like the lead. "You'll get used to me." 
8:15 - "How you doin'?" 
8:16 - Uh, does anyone know when this show 'takes place?' Like time period. We've met Fish. 
8:17 - Nope, now we've met the Penguin. 
8:18 - "Yes, my boys are watching a scary movie." 
8:19 - Yep, he's Penguin. GCPD? That's a mouth full, isn't it? "F-Fun." 
8:20 - If looks could kill. 

Commercial Break

8:22 - Who's this? And why do I sense a sex scene coming up?
8:23 - Yeah, I was right - the suit jacket came off. Wow, she's planning ahead quite quickly. 
8:24 - Really, he's not shirtless? But, hell, Gotham is pretty epic looking. 
8:25 - So confused. I think I need some backstory. And we met Poison Ivy. "So it will be a pleasant talk." 
8:26 - That's how you know something's up when the suspect runs. Weird camera angles - WTF? 
8:27 - Careful lead. The lead sucks at fighting. "Thanks." That is so illegal now. 

Commercial Break 

8:30 - Hey look, a gun. And the pearls. 
8:31 - I knew I didn't like those guys. Sure it did, Penguin. "That's beside the point." 
8:32 - That's Catwoman again. "You kept your promise. Thank you." 
8:33 - This won't end well. 
8:34 - "Yes, thank you, I know him." "Like I know you." What did that mean? "No." 
8:35 - Assholes. "Bastards." 
8:36 - "Why?" "To cover up the real killer." 
8:37 - "We killed him." A bullet wound to the shoulder killed him? Really? "Forget about it." 
8:38 - "I'm afraid he might lie." "He might." "You just did." "You'll have to wait and see." "I hate surprises." Well, Fish, you've got some skills. 
8:39 - You, asshole, you lied to his fiancé. You are in on all of this, aren't you, partner? 

Commercial Break - I'm not really into Gotham, you guys. Not really my scene, I guess. 

8:43 - Yeah, I'm happy I'm a vegetarian. 
8:44 - "That's what everybody says." Okay, so we have cell phones - so, late 90s, early 2000s. 
8:45 - "Cops." "I like you, you're funny." 
8:46 - "I feel this way, also." 
8:47 - Yeah, I'm done after tonight. "My little Penguin." "Thanks for trying to help." 
8:48 - Oh joy. But someone's to the rescue. Who are you? "She has to ask permission."

Commercial Break

8:50 - "Friendship?" 
8:51 - "Blood doesn't lie." 
8:52 - I hate businessmen, especially when it comes to organized crime. "Just like your father." 
8:53 - No duh. 
8:54 - Don't kill Penguin, he's like the only character I like and have sympathy for. Poor Penguin. He going to fire a bullet as a decoy.
8:55 - "I'll be your slave for life." "I'm clever that way." "I can be a spy." Good pretending on your part, Penguin. But he'll be back. 
8:56 - Oh, are we going to the Waynes mansion? And it looks like Bruce is going to kill himself. But stops himself. 
8:57 - "He was framed." "I'm sorry." "Don't be." 
8:58 - "I can only do that from the inside." "Your call?" That's his way of saying yes, lead actor. Hello again Catwoman. 
8:59 - He's back. And he just murdered someone, for food. Well, that's Penguin for you.
