I have no idea what an Emily Litella is.
A Gilda Radner character on old-school SNL. She always got shit wrong, like I did.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
The pilot didn't blow me away or anything, but I'm mostly wading in the shallow end of the pool, where I enjoy looking at Jason Isaacs mangsting in existential crisis.
The procedural aspect is going to be tougher to swallow, but the season preview seems to hint at some kind of a story arc. I'll keep it in my season pass list for now.

Yeah, I've had dreams where I (perceive that I) speak perfect, fluent French. I do not, in this reality, do that. So he shouldn't worry about the Constitution.
I liked it enough to keep watching and am not bothered that the pilot is confusing -- I kind of feel like we're supposed to feel his disorientation, too, and I'm cool with that.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
The ability to read things and not have the text stay the same is one of the things that people use to trigger awareness that they're dreaming when trying to achieve lucid dreaming, as text tends to not be stable in dreams.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I learned that from an episode of Batman: The Animated Series.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't care if that's realistic behaviour. It's not entertaining, and it's not endearing. Fuck, I wanted Carl dead. The new world is going to need sensible children. Not dopes like him, acting out.
However, Dale is highly annoying, so not sorry to see him gone. Kind of annoyed that it had to be the noble savage hillbilly that took him out, because our hero didn't actually have the stones for it, but there you go.

Once Upon A Time managed to have an actual happy ending ... sort of.

It seems like the logic fairy is flying further and further away from Storybrooke.

Man, Carl is so fucked-up, and this isn't going to help matters. Dale was super-annoying, but what was more annoying is that he was being annoying while saying sensible things. Who will take the moral high ground with everyone now?
